4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Benjamin Poirier <bpoirier@xxxxxxxx> commit e2710dbf0dc1e37d85368e2404049dadda848d5a upstream. Alex reported the following race condition: /* link goes up... interrupt... schedule watchdog */ \ e1000_watchdog_task \ e1000e_has_link \ hw->mac.ops.check_for_link() === e1000e_check_for_copper_link \ e1000e_phy_has_link_generic(..., &link) link = true /* link goes down... interrupt */ \ e1000_msix_other hw->mac.get_link_status = true /* link is up */ mac->get_link_status = false link_active = true /* link_active is true, wrongly, and stays so because * get_link_status is false */ Avoid this problem by making sure that we don't set get_link_status = false after having checked the link. It seems this problem has been present since the introduction of e1000e.
