From 9889707b06acfe9bb37a6edcaae627d4a5eacc72 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Slawomir Laba Date: Tue, 23 Jul 2019 06:01:39 -0400 Subject: i40e: Fix crash caused by stress setting of VF MAC addresses Add update to the VSI pointer passed to the i40e_set_vf_mac function. If VF is in reset state the driver waits in i40e_set_vf_mac function for the reset to be complete, yet after reset the vsi pointer that was passed into this function is no longer valid. The patch updates local VSI pointer directly from pf->vsi array, by using the id stored in VF pointer (lan_vsi_idx). Without this commit the driver might occasionally invoke general protection fault in kernel and disable the OS entirely.
