Subject: [Intel-wired-lan] [PATCH net] iavf: initialize waitqueues before starting watchdog_task
Date: Thu, 19 Oct 2023 09:13:46 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20231019071346.55949-1-mschmidt@redhat.com> (raw)

It is not safe to initialize the waitqueues after queueing the
watchdog_task. It will be using them.

The chance of this causing a real problem is very small, because
there will be some sleeping before any of the waitqueues get used.
I got a crash only after inserting an artificial sleep in iavf_probe.

Queue the watchdog_task as the last step in iavf_probe. Add a comment to
prevent repeating the mistake.

Fixes: fe2647ab0c99 ("i40evf: prevent VF close returning before state transitions to DOWN")
