[v2] net/i40e: fix request queue fail in VF

diff mbox series

From: Zhu Tao <taox.zhu@intel.com>

When the VF configuration is larger than the number of queues reserved
by PF, VF sends the request queue command through admin queue. When PF
received this command, it may reset the VF and send a notification
before resetting. If this notification is read by the timed task alarm,
Task request queue will lost notification. This patch Mark vf_reset,
pend_msg flag just as task request queue has received notification in
task alarm.

Fixes: 864a800d70 ("net/i40e: remove VF interrupt handler")
Fixes: ee653bd800 ("net/i40e: determine number of queues per VF at run time")

You current solution rely on we can always can get a dummy event after the VIRTCHNL_EVENT_RESET_IMPENDING event we needed, but I'm not sure if it is guaranteed

If the issue is due to the race condition between i40evf_execute_vf_cmd and i40evf_dev_alarm_handler
Why not just disable the adminq interrupt before i40evf_request_queues and enable it back after it?
