If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From foo@baz Wed Feb 28 16:23:28 CET 2018 From: Netanel Belgazal <netanel@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 3 Jan 2018 06:17:29 +0000 Subject: net: ena: unmask MSI-X only after device initialization is completed From: Netanel Belgazal <netanel@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 7853b49ce8e0ef6364d24512b287463841d71bd3 ] Under certain conditions MSI-X interrupt might arrive right after it was unmasked in ena_up(). There is a chance it would be processed by the driver before device ENA_FLAG_DEV_UP flag is set. In such a case the interrupt is ignored. ENA device operates in auto-masked mode, therefore ignoring interrupt leaves it masked for good. Moving unmask of interrupt to be the last step in ena_up().
