For a Hyper-V vmbus, the size of the ringbuffer has two requirements: 1) it has to take one PAGE_SIZE for the header 2) it has to be PAGE_SIZE aligned so that double-mapping can work VMBUS_RING_SIZE() could calculate a correct ringbuffer size which fulfills both requirements, therefore use it to make sure vmbus work when PAGE_SIZE != HV_HYP_PAGE_SIZE (4K). Note that since the argument for VMBUS_RING_SIZE() is the size of payload (data part), so it will be minus 4k (the size of header when PAGE_SIZE = 4k) than the original value to keep the ringbuffer total size unchanged when PAGE_SIZE = 4k.

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.
