Re: [PATCH] NVMe: init nvme queue before enabling irq

From: Sagi Grimberg
Date: Wed Jan 20 2016 - 04:08:01 EST



During reset process, the nvme_dev->bar (ioremapped) may change,
so nvmeq->q_db shall be also updated by nvme_init_queue().

Currently nvmeq irq is enabled before queue init, so a spurious
interrupt triggered nvme_process_cq may access nvmeq->q_db just
before it is updated, this could cause kernel panic.

This patch makes sense to me.

Not sure we need an explicit comment on the fix here. But I don't
mind keeping it.

I think that this makes the duplication in nvme_alloc_queue redundant.
Can you remove it?

Other then that, looks good to me,
