Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Drivers: hv: get rid of timeout in vmbus_open()
Date: Thu,  9 Jun 2016 17:08:56 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1465517337-19521-1-git-send-email-kys@microsoft.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1465517312-19482-1-git-send-email-kys@microsoft.com>

From: Vitaly Kuznetsov <vkuznets@redhat.com>

vmbus_teardown_gpadl() can result in infinite wait when it is called on 5
second timeout in vmbus_open(). The issue is caused by the fact that gpadl
teardown operation won't ever succeed for an opened channel and the timeout
isn't always enough. As a guest, we can always trust the host to respond to
our request (and there is nothing we can do if it doesn't).
