[PATCH 5.10 084/100] ibmvnic: dont spin in tasklet

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Sukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 48079e7fdd0269d66b1d7d66ae88bd03162464ad ]

ibmvnic_tasklet() continuously spins waiting for responses to all
capability requests. It does this to avoid encountering an error
during initialization of the vnic. However if there is a bug in the
VIOS and we do not receive a response to one or more queries the
tasklet ends up spinning continuously leading to hard lock ups.

If we fail to receive a message from the VIOS it is reasonable to
timeout the login attempt rather than spin indefinitely in the tasklet.

Fixes: 249168ad07cd ("ibmvnic: Make CRQ interrupt tasklet wait for all capabilities crqs")
