Do not consider the fixed size of hv_vp_set when passing the variable header size to hv_do_rep_hypercall(). The Hyper-V hypervisor specification states that for a hypercall with a variable header only the size of the variable portion should be supplied via the input control. For HVCALL_FLUSH_VIRTUAL_ADDRESS_SPACE_EX/LIST_EX calls that means the fixed portion of hv_vp_set should not be considered. That fixes random failures of some applications that are unexpectedly killed with SIGBUS or SIGSEGV.

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.
