From f31fe8165d365379d858c53bef43254c7d6d1cfd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Naman Jain Date: Fri, 2 May 2025 13:18:10 +0530 Subject: uio_hv_generic: Fix sysfs creation path for ring buffer On regular bootup, devices get registered to VMBus first, so when uio_hv_generic driver for a particular device type is probed, the device is already initialized and added, so sysfs creation in hv_uio_probe() works fine. However, when the device is removed and brought back, the channel gets rescinded and the device again gets registered to VMBus. However this time, the uio_hv_generic driver is already registered to probe for that device and in this case sysfs creation is tried before the device's kobject gets initialized completely. Fix this by moving the core logic of sysfs creation of ring buffer, from uio_hv_generic to HyperV's VMBus driver, where the rest of the sysfs attributes for the channels are defined. While doing that, make use of attribute groups and macros, instead of creating sysfs directly, to ensure better error handling and code flow. Problematic path: vmbus_process_offer (A new offer comes for the VMBus device) vmbus_add_channel_work vmbus_device_register |-> device_register | |... | |-> hv_uio_probe | |... | |-> sysfs_create_bin_file (leads to a warning as | the primary channel's kobject, which is used to | create the sysfs file, is not yet initialized) |-> kset_create_and_add |-> vmbus_add_channel_kobj (initialization of the primary channel's kobject happens later) Above code flow is sequential and the warning is always reproducible in this path.
