Subject: [PATCH net-next] igb: assume MSI-X interrupts during initialization
Date: Thu, 17 Sep 2015 14:46:10 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1442493970-20073-1-git-send-email-sassmann@kpanic.de> (raw)

In igb_sw_init() the sequence of calls was changed from
igb_init_queue_configuration()
igb_init_interrupt_scheme()
igb_probe_vfs()
to
igb_probe_vfs()
igb_init_queue_configuration()
igb_init_interrupt_scheme()

This results in adapter->flags not having the IGB_FLAG_HAS_MSIX bit set
during igb_probe_vfs()->igb_enable_sriov(). Therefore SR-IOV does not
get enabled properly and we run into a NULL pointer if the max_vfs
module parameter is specified (adapter->vf_data does not get allocated,
crash on accessing the structure).

[    7.419447]  [<ffffffff814c7f15>] local_pci_probe+0x45/0xa0

Prevent this by setting the IGB_FLAG_HAS_MSIX bit before calling
igb_probe_vfs(). The real interrupt capabilities will be checked during
igb_init_interrupt_scheme() so this is safe to do.
