From 89667b269e8716390fe558ab35e82d65013b13cd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nadav Amit Date: Tue, 19 Jun 2018 16:00:26 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] vmw_balloon: VMCI_DOORBELL_SET does not check status commit ce664331b2487a5d244a51cbdd8cb54f866fbe5d upstream. When vmballoon_vmci_init() sets a doorbell using VMCI_DOORBELL_SET, for some reason it does not consider the status and looks at the result. However, the hypervisor does not update the result - it updates the status. This might cause VMCI doorbell not to be enabled, resulting in degraded performance.
