commit 79aa801e899417a56863d6713f76c4e108856000 upstream. The effective_affinity_mask is always set when an interrupt is assigned in __assign_irq_vector() -> apic->cpu_mask_to_apicid(), e.g. for struct apic apic_physflat: -> default_cpu_mask_to_apicid() -> irq_data_update_effective_affinity(), but it looks d->common->affinity remains all-1's before the user space or the kernel changes it later. In the early allocation/initialization phase of an IRQ, we should use the effective_affinity_mask, otherwise Hyper-V may not deliver the interrupt to the expected CPU. Without the patch, if we assign 7 Mellanox ConnectX-3 VFs to a 32-vCPU VM, one of the VFs may fail to receive interrupts.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
