When we try to hot-remove a busy virtio-rng device from QEMU monitor,
the device can't be hot-removed. Because virtio-rng driver hangs at
wait_for_completion_killable().

This patch fixed the hang by completing have_data completion before
unregistering a virtio-rng device.

Hi Amit,

Before applying this patch, it's blocking insider wait_for_completion_killable()                     
Applied this patch, wait_for_completion_killable() returns 0,
and vi->data_avail becomes 0, then rng_get_date() will return 0.

Is it expected result?

Thanks for checking this.

> Is it expected result?

I think what will happen is vi->data_avail will be set to whatever it
was set last.  In case of a previous successful read request, the
data_avail will be set to whatever number of bytes the host gave.  On
doing a hot-unplug on the succeeding wait, the value in data_avail
will be re-used, and the hwrng core will wrongly take some bytes in
the buffer as input from the host.

So, I think we need to set vi->data_avail = 0; before calling
wait_event_completion_killable().

In my latest debugging, I found the hang is caused by unexpected reading
when we started to remove the device.

I have two draft fix, 1) is skip unexpected reading by checking a
remove flag. 2) is unregistering device at the beginning of
remove_common(). I think second patch is better if it won't cause
new problem.

The original patch (complete in remove_common()) is still necessary.

Test results: hotplug issue disappeared (dd process will quit).

I finally understand content, we need to set vi->data_avail to 0
before returning virtio_read(), it might enter wait_event_completion_killable()
when we try to remove the device.

We call complete() in remove_common(), then wait_event_completion_killable()
will exit, but virtio_read() will be re-entered if the device still
isn't unregistered, then re-stuck inside wait_event_completion_killable().

I tested some complex condition (both quick/slow backend), I found
some problem in below two patches.

I will post another fix later. The test result is expected.

1. Hotplug remove virtio-rng0, dd process will exit with an error:
    "dd: error reading ‘/dev/hwrng’: Operation not permitted"
   virtio-rng0 disappear from 'info pci'
 
2. Re-read by dd, hotplug virtio-rng1, dd process exit with same
   error, virtio-rng1 disappear

I finally understand content, we need to set vi->data_avail to 0
before returning virtio_read(), it might enter wait_event_completion_killable()
when we try to remove the device.

We call complete() in remove_common(), then wait_event_completion_killable()
will exit, but virtio_read() will be re-entered if the device still
isn't unregistered, then re-stuck inside wait_event_completion_killable().

I tested some complex condition (both quick/slow backend), I found
some problem in below two patches.

I will post another fix later. The test result is expected.

1. Hotplug remove virtio-rng0, dd process will exit with an error:
    "dd: error reading ‘/dev/hwrng’: Operation not permitted"
   virtio-rng0 disappear from 'info pci'
 
2. Re-read by dd, hotplug virtio-rng1, dd process exit with same
   error, virtio-rng1 disappear


Thanks, Amos
