[PATCH v2 char-misc 1/1] Drivers: hv: vmbus: Implement Direct Mode for stimer0

From: Michael Kelley The 2016 version of Hyper-V offers the option to operate the guest VM per-vcpu stimer's in Direct Mode, which means the timer interupts on its own vector rather than queueing a VMbus message. Direct Mode reduces timer processing overhead in both the

[PATCH char-misc v3 1/1] Drivers: hv: vmbus: Remove x86-isms from arch independent drivers

From: Michael Kelley hv_is_hypercall_page_setup() is used to check if Hyper-V is initialized, but a 'hypercall page' is an x86 implementation detail that isn't necessarily present on other architectures. Rename to the architecture independent hv_is_hyperv_initialized()

[PATCH v2 net-next 1/1] netvsc: Add #include's for csum_* function declarations

From: Michael Kelley Add direct #include statements for declarations of csum_tcpudp_magic() and csum_ipv6_magic(). While the needed #include's are picked up indirectly for the x86 architecture, they aren't on other architectures, resulting in compile errors.

[PATCH v2 1/1] Drivers: hv: vmbus: Close timing hole that can corrupt per-cpu page

From: Michael Kelley Extend the disabling of preemption to include the hypercall so that another thread can't get the CPU and corrupt the per-cpu page used for hypercall arguments. Signed-off-by: Michael Kelley --- drivers/hv/hv.c |7 ++-
