commit 372b1e91343e657a7cc5e2e2bcecd5140ac28119 upstream.

The hypercall page only needs to be executable but currently it is setup to
be writable as well. Fix the issue.

commit d77044d142e960f7b5f814a91ecb8bcf86aa552c upstream.

VSS may use a char device to support the communication between
the user level daemon and the driver. When the VSS channel is rescinded
we need to make sure that the char device is fully cleaned up before
we can process a new VSS offer from the host. Implement this logic.

commit 3c7630d35009e6635e5b58d62de554fd5b6db5df upstream.

Initializing hv_context.percpu_list in hv_synic_alloc() helps to prevent a
crash in percpu_channel_enq() when not all CPUs were online during
initialization and it naturally belongs there.

It may happen that not all CPUs are online when we do hv_synic_alloc() and
in case more CPUs come online later we may try accessing these allocated

<title>hv: do not lose pending heartbeat vmbus packets</title>

commit 407a3aee6ee2d2cb46d9ba3fc380bc29f35d020c upstream.

The host keeps sending heartbeat packets independent of the
guest responding to them.  Even though we respond to the heartbeat messages at
interrupt level, we can have situations where there maybe multiple heartbeat
messages pending that have not been responded to. For instance this occurs when the
VM is paused and the host continues to send the heartbeat messages.
Address this issue by draining and responding to all
the heartbeat messages that maybe pending.

[ Upstream commit e16dad6bfe1437aaee565f875a6713ca7ce81bdf ]

In existing code, this tree of resources is created
in single-threaded code and never modified after it is
created, and thus needs no locking.  This patch introduces
a semaphore for tree access, as other patches in this
series introduce run-time modifications of this resource
tree which can happen on multiple threads.

[ Upstream commit 415719160de3fae3bb9cbc617664649919cd00d0 ]

We have to call vmbus_initiate_unload() on crash to make kdump work but
the crash can also be happening in interrupt (e.g. Sysrq + c results in
such) where we can't schedule or the following will happen:

[  314.905786] bad: scheduling from the idle thread!

Just skipping the wait (and even adding some random wait here) won't help:
to make host-side magic working we're supposed to receive CHANNELMSG_UNLOAD
(and actually confirm the fact that we received it) but we can't use
interrupt-base path (vmbus_isr()-&gt; vmbus_on_msg_dpc()). Implement a simple
busy wait ignoring all the other messages and use it if we're in an
interrupt context.
