Subject: [PATCH net] xen-netback: clear vif->task on disconnect
Date: Tue, 3 Dec 2013 09:53:47 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1386064427-31008-1-git-send-email-paul.durrant@citrix.com> (raw)
xenvif_start_xmit() relies on checking vif->task for NULL to determine
whether the vif is ready to accept packets. The task thread is stopped in
xenvif_disconnect() but task is not set to NULL. Thus, on a re-connect the
check will give a false positive.
Also since commit ea732dff5cfa10789007bf4a5b935388a0bb2a8f it should not
be possible for xenvif_connect() to be called if the vif is already connected
so change the check of vif->tx_irq to a BUG_ON() and also add a
BUG_ON(vif->task).
