From 96d1a731611f711f0cb82cea93363ae2ea8cb028 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ross Lagerwall Date: Wed, 5 Dec 2018 13:54:26 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] ixgbe: Fix race when the VF driver does a reset When the VF driver does a reset, it (at least the Linux one) writes to the VFCTRL register to issue a reset and then immediately sends a reset message using the mailbox API. This is racy because when the PF driver detects that the VFCTRL register reset pin has been asserted, it clears the mailbox memory. Depending on ordering, the reset message sent by the VF could be cleared by the PF driver. It then responds to the cleared message with a NACK which causes the VF driver to malfunction. Fix this by deferring clearing the mailbox memory until the reset message is received.
