Subject: [PATCH net 1/3] nfp: don't hold PF lock while enabling SR-IOV
Date: Tue, 22 Aug 2017 23:22:42 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170823062244.26580-2-jakub.kicinski@netronome.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170823062244.26580-1-jakub.kicinski@netronome.com>

Enabling SR-IOV VFs will cause the PCI subsystem to schedule a
work and flush its workqueue.  Since the nfp driver schedules its
own work we can't enable VFs while holding driver load.  Commit
6d48ceb27af1 ("nfp: allocate a private workqueue for driver work")
tried to avoid this deadlock by creating a separate workqueue.
Unfortunately, due to the architecture of workqueue subsystem this
does not guarantee a separate thread of execution.  Luckily
we can simply take pci_enable_sriov() from under the driver lock.

Take pci_disable_sriov() from under the lock too for symmetry.

Fixes: 6d48ceb27af1 ("nfp: allocate a private workqueue for driver work")
