[PATCH 4.20 125/183] net: ena: fix race between link up and device initalization

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Feb 25 2019 - 16:34:16 EST


4.20-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Arthur Kiyanovski <akiyano@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit e1f1bd9bfbedcfce428ee7e1b82a6ec12d4c3863 ]

Fix race condition between ena_update_on_link_change() and
ena_restore_device().

This race can occur if link notification arrives while the driver
is performing a reset sequence. In this case link can be set up,
enabling the device, before it is fully restored. If packets are
sent at this time, the driver might access uninitialized data
structures, causing kernel crash.

Move the clearing of ENA_FLAG_ONGOING_RESET and netif_carrier_on()
after ena_up() to ensure the device is ready when link is set up.
