Baihua reported an error when boot an ARM64 guest with PAGE_SIZE=64k and BALLOON is enabled: hv_vmbus: registering driver hv_balloon hv_vmbus: probe failed for device 1eccfd72-4b41-45ef-b73a-4a6e44c12924 (-22) The cause of this is that the ringbuffer size for hv_balloon is not adjusted with VMBUS_RING_SIZE(), which makes the size not large enough for ringbuffers on guest with PAGE_SIZE=64k. Therefore use VMBUS_RING_SIZE() to calculate the ringbuffer size. Note that the old size (20 * 1024) counts a 4k header in the total size, while VMBUS_RING_SIZE() expects the parameter as the payload size, so use 16 * 1024.

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.
