From 0f1e7977e1f21f5ccd634ef00575ba10d8efc8a0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paul Durrant Date: Thu, 1 Sep 2022 12:55:54 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] xen-netback: only remove 'hotplug-status' when the vif is actually destroyed [ Upstream commit c55f34b6aec2a8cb47eadaffea773e83bf85de91 ] Removing 'hotplug-status' in backend_disconnected() means that it will be removed even in the case that the frontend unilaterally disconnects (which it is free to do at any time). The consequence of this is that, when the frontend attempts to re-connect, the backend gets stuck in 'InitWait' rather than moving straight to 'Connected' (which it can do because the hotplug script has already run). Instead, the 'hotplug-status' mode should be removed in netback_remove() i.e. when the vif really is going away.
