Subject: [PATCH 5/7] vmw_balloon: VMCI_DOORBELL_SET does not check status
Date: Wed, 13 Jun 2018 04:03:57 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180613110359.109033-6-namit@vmware.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180613110359.109033-1-namit@vmware.com>
When vmballoon_vmci_init() sets a doorbell using VMCI_DOORBELL_SET, for
some reason it does not consider the status and looks at the result.
However, the hypervisor does not update the result - it updates the
status.
Fixes: 48e3d668b790 ("VMware balloon: Enable notification via VMCI")
