The driver does not implement a shutdown handler which leads to issues when using kexec in certain scenarios. The NIC keeps on fetching descriptors which gets flagged by the IOMMU with errors like this: DMAR: DMAR:[DMA read] Request device [5e:00.0]fault addr fffff000 DMAR: DMAR:[DMA read] Request device [5e:00.0]fault addr fffff000 DMAR: DMAR:[DMA read] Request device [5e:00.0]fault addr fffff000 DMAR: DMAR:[DMA read] Request device [5e:00.0]fault addr fffff000 DMAR: DMAR:[DMA read] Request device [5e:00.0]fault addr fffff000 Signed-off-by: Moritz Fischer <mdf@kernel.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20201028172125.496942-1-mdf@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
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.
