Björn Töpel 59eb2a884f i40e: fix XDP_REDIRECT/XDP xmit ring cleanup race
When the driver clears the XDP xmit ring due to re-configuration or
teardown, in-progress ndo_xdp_xmit must be taken into consideration.

The ndo_xdp_xmit function is typically called from a NAPI context that
the driver does not control. Therefore, we must be careful not to
clear the XDP ring, while the call is on-going. This patch adds a
synchronize_rcu() to wait for napi(s) (preempt-disable regions and
softirqs), prior clearing the queue. Further, the __I40E_CONFIG_BUSY
flag is checked in the ndo_xdp_xmit implementation to avoid touching
the XDP xmit queue during re-configuration.

Fixes: d9314c474d ("i40e: add support for XDP_REDIRECT")
Fixes: 123cecd427 ("i40e: added queue pair disable/enable functions")

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
