[PATCH 4.14 027/251] xen/netfront: stop tx queues during live migration
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman

[ Upstream commit 042b2046d0f05cf8124c26ff65dbb6148a4404fb ]
The tx queues are not stopped during the live migration. As a result, the
ndo_start_xmit() may access netfront_info->queues which is freed by
talk_to_netback()->xennet_destroy_queues().
This patch is to netif_device_detach() at the beginning of xen-netfront
resuming, and netif_device_attach() at the end of resuming.
CPU A CPU B
talk_to_netback()
-> if (info->queues)
xennet_destroy_queues(info);
to free netfront_info->queues
xennet_start_xmit()
to access netfront_info->queues
-> err = xennet_create_queues(info, &num_queues);
The idea is borrowed from virtio-net.
