The state machine in the hv_utils driver can run out of order in some corner cases, e.g. if the kvp daemon doesn't call write() fast enough due to some reason, kvp_timeout_func() can run first and move the state to HVUTIL_READY; next, when kvp_on_msg() is called it returns -EINVAL since kvp_transaction.state is smaller than HVUTIL_USERSPACE_REQ; later, the daemon's write() gets an error -EINVAL, and the daemon will exit(). We can reproduce the issue by sending a SIGSTOP signal to the daemon, wait for 1 minute, and send a SIGCONT signal to the daemon: the daemon will exit() quickly. We can fix the issue by forcing a reset of the device (which means the daemon can close() and open() the device again) and doing extra necessary clean-up.

README
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.
