[Brad Figg <brad.figg@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves
the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the
results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-
vivid' to 'verification-done-vivid'.

If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will
be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how
to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!

Title:
  Kernel panics on mlx4_core (Mellanox Core driver) with SR-IOV mode

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in linux source package in Vivid:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  SRU Justification:

  [Impact]

  While load/unload mlx4_core twice  with SR-IOV mode enabled in host
  with multiple Mellanox devices (some of them support SR-IOV and other
  don't) this will lead to kernel panic.

  [Fix]

  commit 5114a04e6c73a0c6e74737e801b8a3b3d40c7e36
  commit ed3d2276ef72be23c6367358d80004130d8c797d

  $ git describe 5114a04e6c73a0c6e74737e801b8a3b3d40c7e36 ed3d2276ef72be23c6367358d80004130d8c797d
  v4.1-rc6-1067-g5114a04
  v4.1-rc6-1068-ged3d227

  [Test Case]

  1- add the "options mlx4_core num_vfs=60 port_type_array=2,2" to /etc/modprobe.d/mlx4_core.conf file.
  2- unload mlx4_* kernel modules: modprobe -rv mlx4_en; modprobe -rv mlx4_ib; modprobe -rv mlx4_core;
  3- load mlx4_en kernel module:  modprobe -v mlx4_en
  4- edit /etc/modprobe.d/mlx4_core.conf file and put "options mlx4_core num_vfs=60 port_type_array=2,2" in comment.
  5 -repeat 2 and 3
  6- will get the following call trace.

  While load/unload mlx4_core twice  with SR-IOV mode enabled in host

  don't) this will lead to kernel panic.

  The following two upstream commits fix this issue:

  commit 32b4ca5af1cf1c558dfca0e3417e9b35402401a6
  Author: Carol L Soto <clsoto@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
  Date:   Tue Jun 2 16:07:23 2015 -0500

      net/mlx4_core: double free of dev_vfs

      If user loads mlx4_core with num_vfs greater than
      supported then variable dev->dev_vfs is freed 2 times after unloading the
      driver.

  commit 7095b39f3189d2107045d769fdc32dfc0b704028
  Author: Carol Soto <clsoto@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
  Date:   Tue Jun 2 16:07:24 2015 -0500

      net/mlx4_core: need to call close fw if alloc icm is called twice

      If mlx4_enable_sriov is called by adapter without this
      feature MLX4_DEV_CAP_FLAG2_SYS_EQS then during this path the function alloc
      icm is called twice without freeing the structures from the first time.

  Steps to reproduce:
  1- add the "options mlx4_core num_vfs=60 port_type_array=2,2" to /etc/modprobe.d/mlx4_core.conf file.
  2- unload mlx4_* kernel modules: modprobe -rv mlx4_en; modprobe -rv mlx4_ib; modprobe -rv mlx4_core;
  3- load mlx4_en kernel module:  modprobe -v mlx4_en
  4- edit /etc/modprobe.d/mlx4_core.conf file and put "options mlx4_core num_vfs=60 port_type_array=2,2" in comment.
  5 -repeat 2 and 3
  6- will get the following call trace.
