Revision 976ee3b21119dcf5c6d96233d688a1453f29fa83 authored by Shannon Nelson on 09 June 2020, 03:41:43 UTC, committed by David S. Miller on 09 June 2020, 20:19:27 UTC
The netif_running() test looks at __LINK_STATE_START which
gets set before ndo_open() is called, there is a window of
time between that and when the queues are actually ready to
be run. If ionic_check_link_status() notices that the link is
up very soon after netif_running() becomes true, it might try
to run the queues before they are ready, causing all manner of
potential issues. Since the netdev->flags IFF_UP isn't set
until after ndo_open() returns, we can wait for that before
we allow ionic_check_link_status() to start the queues.
On the way back to close, __LINK_STATE_START is cleared before
calling ndo_stop(), and IFF_UP is cleared after. Both of
these need to be true in order to safely stop the queues
from ionic_check_link_status().
Fixes: 49d3b493673a ("ionic: disable the queues on link down")
