There is no loop. If __E1000_DOWN is set then we will never free the IRQ. > Another point, does before execute secondary bus reset your SW back up > pcie configuration space as properly? After a secondary bus reset, the link needs to recover and go back to a working state after 1 second. From the callstack, the issue is happening while removing the endpoint from the system, before applying the secondary bus reset. The order of events is 1. remove the drivers 2. cause a secondary bus reset 3. wait 1 second 4. recover the link callstack: free_msi_irqs+0x6c/0x1a8 pci_disable_msi+0xb0/0x148 e1000e_reset_interrupt_capability+0x60/0x78 e1000_remove+0xc8/0x180 pci_device_remove+0x48/0x118 __device_release_driver+0x80/0x108 device_release_driver+0x2c/0x40 pci_stop_bus_device+0xa0/0xb0 pci_stop_bus_device+0x3c/0xb0 pci_stop_root_bus+0x54/0x80 acpi_pci_root_remove+0x28/0x64 acpi_bus_trim+0x6c/0xa4 acpi_device_hotplug+0x19c/0x3f4 acpi_hotplug_work_fn+0x28/0x3c process_one_work+0x150/0x460 worker_thread+0x50/0x4b8 kthread+0xd4/0xe8 ret_from_fork+0x10/0x50 Thanks, Tyler -- Qualcomm Datacenter Technologies, Inc. as an affiliate of Qualcomm Technologies, Inc.
