When the driver notices that PCIe link is gone by reading 0xffffffff from a register it clears hw->hw_addr and then calls netif_device_detach(). This happens when the PCIe device is physically unplugged for example the user disconnected the Thunderbolt cable. However, netif_device_detach() prevents netif_unregister() from bringing the device down properly including tearing down MSI-X vectors. This triggers following crash during the driver removal: igb 0000:0b:00.0 enp11s0f0: PCIe link lost, device now detached ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel BUG at drivers/pci/msi.c:352! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP PTI ...

To prevent the crash do not call netif_device_detach() in igb_rd32(). This should be fine because hw->hw_addr is set to NULL preventing future hardware access of the now missing device.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
