[ Upstream commit 96d9d1fa5cd505078534113308ced0aa56d8da58 ] Commit adae1e931acd ("Drivers: hv: vmbus: Copy packets sent by Hyper-V out of the ring buffer") introduced a notion of maximum packet size in vmbus channel and used that size to initialize a buffer holding all incoming packet along with their vmbus packet header. hv_balloon uses the default maximum packet size VMBUS_DEFAULT_MAX_PKT_SIZE which matches its maximum message size, however vmbus_open expects this size to also include vmbus packet header. This leads to 4096 bytes dm_unballoon_request messages being truncated to 4080 bytes. When the driver tries to read next packet it starts from a wrong read_index, receives garbage and prints a lot of "Unhandled message: type: <garbage>" in dmesg. Allocate the buffer with HV_HYP_PAGE_SIZE more bytes to make room for the header.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. 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.
