Summary0000514: Backport of [hv_netvsc] Fix error "nvsp_rndis_pkt_complete error status: 2"
DescriptionHi Team,
       We are requesting backport of the following patches into all active kernel versions and forward, based on the information below.

Here is the summary with links:

[net,1/5] Drivers: hv: Allow vmbus_sendpacket_mpb_desc() to create multiple ranges

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net.git/commit/?id=380b75d30786

[net,2/5] hv_netvsc: Use vmbus_sendpacket_mpb_desc() to send VMBus messages

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net.git/commit/?id=4f98616b855c

[net,3/5] hv_netvsc: Preserve contiguous PFN grouping in the page buffer array

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net.git/commit/?id=41a6328b2c55

[net,4/5] hv_netvsc: Remove rmsg_pgcnt

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net.git/commit/?id=5bbc644bbf4e

[net,5/5] Drivers: hv: vmbus: Remove vmbus_sendpacket_pagebuffer()

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net.git/commit/?id=45a442fe369e

Starting with commit dca5161f9bd0 in the 6.3 kernel, the Linux driver for Hyper-V synthetic networking (netvsc) occasionally reports "nvsp_rndis_pkt_complete error status: 2".[1] This error indicates that Hyper-V has rejected a network packet transmit request from the guest, and the outgoing network packet is dropped. Higher level network protocols presumably recover and resend the packet so there is no functional error, but performance is slightly impacted. Commit dca5161f9bd0 is not the cause of the error -- it only added reporting of an error that was already happening without any notice. The error has presumably been present since the netvsc driver was originally introduced into Linux.
