From bffb023ad2d44c0cfa8142ad8247391b32000998 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jack Morgenstein Date: Tue, 24 Mar 2015 15:18:39 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] net/mlx4_core: Fix GEN_EQE accessing uninitialixed mutex We occasionally see in procedure mlx4_GEN_EQE that the driver tries to grab an uninitialized mutex. This can occur in only one of two ways: 1. We are trying to generate an async event on an uninitialized slave. 2. We are trying to generate an async event on an illegal slave number ( < 0 or > persist->num_vfs) or an inactive slave. To deal with #1: move the mutex initialization from specific slave init sequence in procedure mlx_master_do_cmd to mlx4_multi_func_init() (so that the mutex is always initialized for all slaves). To deal with #2: check in procedure mlx4_GEN_EQE that the slave number provided is in the proper range and that the slave is active.
