Title:
[Hyper-V] vmbus: Fix a bug in hv_need_to_signal_on_read()
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
The following patch has been submitted upstream in response to
investigation of customer issues with network connections hanging
under high load.
On the consumer side, we have interrupt driven flow management of the
producer. It is sufficient to base the signalling decision on the
amount of space that is available to write after the read is complete.
The current code samples the previous available space and uses this in
making the signalling decision. This state can be stale and is
unnecessary. Since the state can be stale, we end up not signalling
the host (when we should) and this can result in a hang. Fix this
problem by removing the unnecessary check.
I would like to thank Arseney Romanenko <arseneyr@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
for pointing out this bug.

We have customers who are encountering this issue. Although this patch
is not yet accepted upstream, we would like to get them a test kernel
as soon as we can.
