[dpdk-dev] net/ixgbe: fix calling null function of VF
Checks
Commit Message
hw->mac.ops.get_media-type() of ixgbe VF is NULL and should not
be called directly. It had better be replaced by calling
ixgbe_get_media_type( ) to avoid crash.

Hello,
The patch you proposed fixed a crash I experienced in IXGBE VF.
However, there's still another crash possibility
if the code will proceed with speed == 0 condition to ixgbe_get_link_capabilities
VF mac.ops.get_link_capabilities is also set to NULL;
Regards,
Gregory

There seems a NULL check in that path, so it should be OK, can you
please check:
ixgbe_get_link_capabilities()
return ixgbe_call_func(hw, hw->mac.ops.get_link_capabilities, .)
...
#define ixgbe_call_func(hw, func, params, error) \
(func != NULL) ? func params : error
So, if hw->mac.ops.get_link_capabilities == NULL, this will return
IXGBE_NOT_IMPLEMENTED

Hi Roger and Laurent,
This is very close the release, can you please support verifying this
defect?
An explicit Acked-by and/or Tested-by would help a lot.
Thanks,
ferruh

Removing stable@dpdk.org as the bug was introduced in 17.05-rc3.
Applied, thanks
-stable@dpdk.org per Thomas
I know this patch has already been applied but to complete the loop, I
have applied the patch to 17.05-rc4 and verified within my application
that the NULL function pointer issue for ixgbe_vf has been resolved.
Regards,
Roger
