hyperv: Add support for vNIC hot removal

2014-12-09T01:24:11+00:00

This patch adds proper handling of the vNIC hot removal event, which includes
a rescind-channel-offer message from the host side that triggers vNIC close and
removal. In this case, the notices to the host during close and removal is not
necessary because the channel is rescinded. This patch blocks these unnecessary
messages, and lets vNIC removal process complete normally.

net: Hyper-V: Deletion of an unnecessary check before the function call "vfree"

2014-11-25T22:22:48+00:00

The vfree() function performs also input parameter validation.
Thus the test around the call is not needed.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

hyperv: Add processing of MTU reduced by the host

2014-11-12T21:21:36+00:00

If the host uses packet encapsulation feature, the MTU may be reduced by the
host due to headroom reservation for encapsulation. This patch handles this
new MTU value.

hyperv: Fix the total_data_buflen in send path

2014-10-22T21:58:50+00:00

total_data_buflen is used by netvsc_send() to decide if a packet can be put
into send buffer. It should also include the size of RNDIS message before the
Ethernet frame. Otherwise, a messge with total size bigger than send_section_size
may be copied into the send buffer, and cause data corruption.

hyperv: Add handling of IP header with option field in netvsc_set_hash()

2014-10-18T03:43:40+00:00

In case that the IP header has optional field at the end, this patch will
get the port numbers after that field, and compute the hash. The general
parser skb_flow_dissect() is used here.

hyperv: Fix a bug in netvsc_send()

2014-10-06T01:10:48+00:00

After the packet is successfully sent, we should not touch the packet
as it may have been freed. This patch is based on the work done by
Long Li .
