This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled sfc: avoid double pci_remove of VFs to the 5.4-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: sfc-avoid-double-pci_remove-of-vfs.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.4 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 848ef9f08597b3fdc65b79625aae0206a8ca6f38 Author: �ñigo Huguet <ihuguet@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Jun 21 17:32:35 2021 +0200 sfc: avoid double pci_remove of VFs [ Upstream commit 45423cff1db66cf0993e8a9bd0ac93e740149e49 ] If pci_remove was called for a PF with VFs, the removal of the VFs was called twice from efx_ef10_sriov_fini: one directly with pci_driver->remove and another implicit by calling pci_disable_sriov, which also perform the VFs remove. This was leading to crashing the kernel on the second attempt. Given that pci_disable_sriov already calls to pci remove function, get rid of the direct call to pci_driver->remove from the driver. 2 different ways to trigger the bug: - Create one or more VFs, then attach the PF to a virtual machine (at least with qemu/KVM) - Create one or more VFs, then remove the PF with: echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/PF_PCI_ID/remove Removing sfc module does not trigger the error, at least for me, because it removes the VF first, and then the PF. Example of a log with the error: list_del corruption, ffff967fd20a8ad0->next is LIST_POISON1 (dead000000000100) ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel BUG at lib/list_debug.c:47!
