Subject: [PATCH 4.4 10/28] Drivers: hv: get rid of timeout in vmbus_open()
Date: Tue, 25 Apr 2017 16:08:41 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170425150815.170138307@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170425150814.719042460@linuxfoundation.org>

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Vitaly Kuznetsov <vkuznets@redhat.com>

commit 396e287fa2ff46e83ae016cdcb300c3faa3b02f6 upstream.

vmbus_teardown_gpadl() can result in infinite wait when it is called on 5
second timeout in vmbus_open(). The issue is caused by the fact that gpadl
teardown operation won't ever succeed for an opened channel and the timeout
isn't always enough. As a guest, we can always trust the host to respond to
our request (and there is nothing we can do if it doesn't).
