Subject: [PATCH] pci-hyperv: use kmalloc to allocate hypercall params buffer

From: Long Li <[email protected]>

hv_do_hypercall assumes that we pass a segment from a physically
continuous buffer. Buffer allocated on the stack may not work if
CONFIG_VMAP_STACK=y is set.

Change to use kmalloc to allocate this buffer.

The v2 patch adds locking to access the pre-allocated buffer.

It looks like the additional locking here is being overly paranoid.
The caller is already holding the irq descriptor lock. Look at fixup_irqs.

You are right. On my test machine, there are two possible places calling hv_irq_unmask(): request _irq() and handle_edge_irq(). They both have desc->lock held when calling .irq_unmask on the chip. A review of the IRQ code shows that desc->lock is always held while calling chip->irq_unmask().

Since the lock doesn't do any harm and it is not on performance code path, we can remove the lock in the upcoming patches.

> You are right. On my test machine, there are two possible places calling hv_irq_unmask(): request _irq() and handle_edge_irq(). They both have desc->lock held when calling .irq_unmask on the chip. A review of the IRQ code shows that desc->lock is always held while calling chip->irq_unmask().

Why add it then remove it, your patch hasn't been accepted. Please revise it and remove it.
Don't add additional unnecessary code.
