      Drivers: hv: kvp: fix IP Failover · 4dbfc2e6
      Vitaly Kuznetsov authored
      Hyper-V VMs can be replicated to another hosts and there is a feature to
      set different IP for replicas, it is called 'Failover TCP/IP'. When
      such guest starts Hyper-V host sends it KVP_OP_SET_IP_INFO message as soon
      as we finish negotiation procedure. The problem is that it can happen (and
      it actually happens) before userspace daemon connects and we reply with
      HV_E_FAIL to the message. As there are no repetitions we fail to set the
      requested IP.
      
      Solve the issue by postponing our reply to the negotiation message till
      userspace daemon is connected. We can't wait too long as there is a
      host-side timeout (cca. 75 seconds) and if we fail to reply in this time
      frame the whole KVP service will become inactive. The solution is not
      ideal - if it takes userspace daemon more than 60 seconds to connect
      IP Failover will still fail but I don't see a solution with our current
      separation between kernel and userspace parts.
      
      Other two modules (VSS and FCOPY) don't require such delay, leave them
      untouched.
