commit e95fc8573e07c5e4825df4650fd8b8c93fad27a7 upstream. There is a possibility of race between ice_open or ice_stop calls performed by OS and reset handling routine both trying to modify VSI resources. Observed scenarios: - reset handler deallocates memory in ice_vsi_free_arrays and ice_open tries to access it in ice_vsi_cfg_txq leading to driver crash - reset handler deallocates memory in ice_vsi_free_arrays and ice_close tries to access it in ice_down leading to driver crash - reset handler clears port scheduler topology and sets port state to ICE_SCHED_PORT_STATE_INIT leading to ice_ena_vsi_txq fail in ice_open To prevent this additional checks in ice_open and ice_stop are introduced to make sure that OS is not allowed to alter VSI config while reset is in progress.

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.
