Hi!

 Haiyang Zhang write on  May 27, 2014 6:22 PM:
I ( Haiyang Zhang)  will ask the maintainer
( for backport id=99d3016de4f2a29635f5382b0e9bd0e5f2151487  ), see if it will be in next 3.14 update as well.

Haiyang Zhang on  June 25, 2014 19:14 ( UTC+3) :
I ( Haiyang Zhang)  have requested that patch for stable branch, but  . . . ( VVM: skipped by me)

V.V.M.:
 Problem  Non-FIXed in Linux Kernel v3.14.8 2014-06-16  :-(

Reason?  Roadmap?

(

 Without this patch ( i.e. in kernel v3.14 )  LANCard driver/.ko is simply not start in case VM with OS Linux on Hyper-V
host with Win 2008 R2 ( Win 2012 R2 not affected)

)

P.S.

 About "rules":

IMHO,
 In fact _all_ patch equal 16-1 = 15 :-) i.e.

-#define NETVSC_RECEIVE_BUFFER_SIZE (1024*1024*16) /* 16MB */
+#define NETVSC_RECEIVE_BUFFER_SIZE (1024*1024*15) /* 15MB */

It defines a NETVSC_RECEIVE_BUFFER_SIZE_LEGACY of 15MB instead of 16MB
used on newer versions of this Hypervisor.
Technically this also affects Jessie when running as guest on Windows Server 2008 R2.
