From 67fa36609fe0a0a4b4c99120e5093599556e4c5b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paul Durrant Date: Tue, 3 Dec 2013 14:06:25 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] xen-netback: clear vif->task on disconnect xenvif_start_xmit() relies on checking vif->task for NULL to determine whether the vif is ready to accept packets. The task thread is stopped in xenvif_disconnect() but task is not set to NULL. Thus, on a re-connect the check will give a false positive. Also since commit ea732dff5cfa10789007bf4a5b935388a0bb2a8f (Handle backend state transitions in a more robust way) it should not be possible for xenvif_connect() to be called if the vif is already connected so change the check of vif->tx_irq to a BUG_ON() and also add a BUG_ON(vif->task).
