Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Drivers: hv: balloon: two memory hotplug fixes
Date: Tue,  5 Apr 2016 19:21:12 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1459876874-882-1-git-send-email-vkuznets@redhat.com> (raw)

Hi,

I found an issue (crash) while testing memory hotplug on WS2016TP4 host.
It should be easily reproducible with the following test sequence
 (4.6-rc2):

1) Start a VM with 4 vCPUs in 4 NUMA nodes, 4096Mb of RAM.
2) Enable memory auto onlining with 
   'echo online > /sys/devices/system/memory/auto_online_blocks'
3) Wait till hv_balloon driver finishes negotiation.
4) Increase memory to 8192Mb.
5) Increase memory to 10000Mb.

The first patch in the series fixes the issue. While writing it I stumbled
upon an unrelated issue which I fix with PATCH 2.

Please review.
