Subject: [PATCH] Drivers: hv: vmbus: do not mark HV_PCIE as perf_device
Date: Sat, 3 Mar 2018 00:22:19 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180303002155.20689-2-decui@microsoft.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180303002155.20689-1-decui@microsoft.com>
The pci-hyperv driver's channel callback hv_pci_onchannelcallback() is not
really a hot path, so we don't need to mark it as a perf_device, meaning
with this patch all HV_PCIE channels' target_cpu will be CPU0.
This patch can help to avoid a potential ABBA deadlock in the busy loop
of Hyper-V PCI driver's hv_compose_msi_msg().
