commit 4e39a072a6a0fc422ba7da5e4336bdc295d70211 upstream. Fix this panic by adding more rules to calculate the value of @rss_size_max which could be used in allocating the queues when bpf is loaded, which, however, could cause the failure and then trigger the NULL pointer of vsi->rx_rings. Prio to this fix, the machine doesn't care about how many cpus are online and then allocates 256 queues on the machine with 32 cpus online actually. Once the load of bpf begins, the log will go like this "failed to get tracking for 256 queues for VSI 0 err -12" and this "setup of MAIN VSI failed". Thus, I attach the key information of the crash-log here.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. 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.
