[Intel-wired-lan] [PATCH] igb: Fix igb_down hung on surprise removal

Hi all,

This commit introduced a regression. What does not work with this commit is an AER without a surprise removal event.

We are currently stuck with the 5.4 kernel - our embedded system can't easily boot arbitrary kernel versions. The igb driver code has not changed and I'm quite positive the issue still persist in the latest upstream kernel.

This issue is reproducible with aer_inject. 09:00.0 is our i210 which is directly connected to the cpu root port 00:01.1:

BUG_ON() comes from

The stack-trace shows that the AER handler starts here and goes into igb_up():

static void igb_io_resume(struct pci_dev *pdev)
{
        struct net_device *netdev = pci_get_drvdata(pdev);
        struct igb_adapter *adapter = netdev_priv(netdev);

        if (netif_running(netdev)) {
                if (igb_up(adapter)) {
                        dev_err(&pdev->dev, "igb_up failed after reset\n");
                        return;

Three functions come into the picture:

igb_io_error_detected() { // runs upon AER detection
  igb_down();  // before this commit
  noop;        // with this commit
}

igb_io_resume() { // runs upon AER handling
  igb_up()
}

igb_remove() { // runs upon rmmod igb, or surprise down removal (as shown in the commit log)
  igb_down();
}

Before this commit, the flow for an AER on 09:00.0 was
 igb_down; // from igb_io_error_detect() - this sets the NAPI_STATE_SCHED bit
 igb_up;   // from igb_io_resume()       - that works as it finds a set NAPI_STATE_SCHED bit (and then clears it)

Now with this commit, the flow for an AER on 09:00.0 is
 noop;     // from igb_io_error_detect() - the NAPI_STATE_SCHED bit is not touched, e.g. it remains cleared
 igb_up;   // from igb_io_resume()       - BUG_ON() is triggered as it finds a cleared NAPI_STATE_SCHED bit


I don't have a means to reproduce this i210 on thunderbolt issue and don't completely understand its flow. Before this commit, the "expected" flow for i210 on thunderbolt was probably

 igb_down; // from igb_io_error_detect() - this sets the NAPI_STATE_SCHED bit
 igb_up;   // from igb_io_resume()       - that works as it finds a set NAPI_STATE_SCHED bit and cleans it.
 igb_down; // from igb_remove()          - that works b/c of the previous igb_up()

The bug report shows that this was not the case. I don't completely understand the reported problem: what happens to and in igb_io_resume() and its call to igb_up()? In the commit log backtrace, I see igb_remove() eventually calling __dev_close_many() which clears the __LINK__STATE_START bit. igb_io_resume() does check this bit via netif_running() and calls only then igb_up(). My guess is igb_io_resume() executes after igb_remove() and skips therefore the execution of igb_up(). As we see from the commit log backtrace, that makes igb_remove() starve now in igb_down()->napi_synchronize().

How to fix that, I don't know.

 Stefan
