If there are IPIP nexthops at the time when the driver is loaded (or the devlink instance reloaded), the driver looks up the corresponding IPIP entry. But IPIP entries are only created as a result of netdevice notifications. Since the netdevice notifier is registered after the nexthop notifier, mlxsw_sp_nexthop_type_init() never finds the IPIP entry, registers the nexthop MLXSW_SP_NEXTHOP_TYPE_ETH, and fails to assign a CRIF to the nexthop. Later on when the CRIF is necessary, the WARN_ON in mlxsw_sp_nexthop_rif() triggers, causing the splat [1]. In order to fix the issue, reorder the netdevice notifier to be registered before the nexthop one.

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.
