In rare cases, ena driver would reset and re-start the device, for example, in case of misbehaving application that causes transmit timeout The first step in the reset procedure is to stop the Tx traffic by calling ena_carrier_off(). After the driver have just started the device reset procedure, device happens to send an asynchronous notification (via AENQ) to the driver than there was a link change (to link-up state). This link change is mapped to a call to netif_carrier_on() which re-activates the Tx queues, violating the assumption of no tx traffic until device reset is completed, as the reset task might still be in the process of queues initialization, leading to an access to uninitialized memory.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
