net: hv_netvsc: reject RSS hash key programming without RX indirection table

2026-01-23T10:21:18+00:00

[ Upstream commit d23564955811da493f34412d7de60fa268c8cb50 ]

RSS configuration requires a valid RX indirection table. When the device
reports a single receive queue, rndis_filter_device_add() does not
allocate an indirection table, accepting RSS hash key updates in this
state leads to a hang.

Fix this by gating netvsc_set_rxfh() on ndc->rx_table_sz and return
-EOPNOTSUPP when the table is absent. This aligns set_rxfh with the device
capabilities and prevents incorrect behavior.

2025-10-01T00:00:42+00:00

At present VMBus driver is hinged off of CONFIG_HYPERV which entails
lot of builtin code and encompasses too much. It's not always clear
what depends on builtin hv code and what depends on VMBus. Setting
CONFIG_HYPERV as a module and fudging the Makefile to switch to builtin
adds even more confusion. VMBus is an independent module and should have
its own config option. Also, there are scenarios like baremetal dom0/root
where support is built in with CONFIG_HYPERV but without VMBus. Lastly,
there are more features coming down that use CONFIG_HYPERV and add more
dependencies on it.

So, create a fine grained HYPERV_VMBUS option and update Kconfigs for
dependency on VMBus.

net: hv_netvsc: fix loss of early receive events from host during channel open.

2025-08-27T01:15:19+00:00

The hv_netvsc driver currently enables NAPI after opening the primary and
subchannels. This ordering creates a race: if the Hyper-V host places data
in the host -> guest ring buffer and signals the channel before
napi_enable() has been called, the channel callback will run but
napi_schedule_prep() will return false. As a result, the NAPI poller never
gets scheduled, the data in the ring buffer is not consumed, and the
receive queue may remain permanently stuck until another interrupt happens
to arrive.

Fix this by enabling NAPI and registering it with the RX/TX queues before
vmbus channel is opened. This guarantees that any early host signal after
open will correctly trigger NAPI scheduling and the ring buffer will be
drained.

hv_netvsc: Fix panic during namespace deletion with VF

2025-08-08T20:24:16+00:00

The existing code move the VF NIC to new namespace when NETDEV_REGISTER is
received on netvsc NIC. During deletion of the namespace,
default_device_exit_batch() >> default_device_exit_net() is called. When
netvsc NIC is moved back and registered to the default namespace, it
automatically brings VF NIC back to the default namespace. This will cause
the default_device_exit_net() >> for_each_netdev_safe loop unable to detect
the list end, and hit NULL ptr:

To fix it, move the ns change to a workqueue, and take rtnl_lock to avoid

hv_netvsc: Set VF priv_flags to IFF_NO_ADDRCONF before open to prevent IPv6 addrconf

hv_netvsc: fix potential deadlock in netvsc_vf_setxdp()

2025-05-31T02:31:25+00:00

The MANA driver's probe registers netdevice via the following call chain:

mana_probe()
  register_netdev()
    register_netdevice()

register_netdevice() calls notifier callback for netvsc driver,
holding the netdev mutex via netdev_lock_ops().

Further this netvsc notifier callback end up attempting to acquire the
same lock again in dev_xdp_propagate() leading to deadlock.

netvsc_netdev_event()
  netvsc_vf_setxdp()
    dev_xdp_propagate()

This deadlock was not observed so far because net_shaper_ops was never set,
and thus the lock was effectively a no-op in this case. Fix this by using
netif_xdp_propagate() instead of dev_xdp_propagate() to avoid recursive
locking in this path.

And, since no deadlock is observed on the other path which is via
netvsc_probe, add the lock exclusivly for that path.

Also, clean up the unregistration path by removing the unnecessary call to
netvsc_vf_setxdp(), since unregister_netdevice_many_notify() already
performs this cleanup via dev_xdp_uninstall().
