The iAVF driver uses 3 virtchnl op codes to communicate with the PF
regarding the VF Tx queues:
* VIRTCHNL_OP_CONFIG_VSI_QUEUES configures the hardware and firmware
logic for the Tx queues
* VIRTCHNL_OP_ENABLE_QUEUES configures the queue interrupts
* VIRTCHNL_OP_DISABLE_QUEUES disables the queue interrupts and Tx rings.
There is a bug in the iAVF driver due to the race condition between VF
reset request and shutdown being executed in parallel. This leads to a
break in logic and VIRTCHNL_OP_DISABLE_QUEUES is not being sent.
If this occurs, the PF driver never cleans up the Tx queues. This results
in leaving behind stale Tx queue settings in the hardware and firmware.
The most obvious outcome is that upon the next
VIRTCHNL_OP_CONFIG_VSI_QUEUES, the PF will fail to program the Tx
scheduler node due to a lack of space.
We need to protect ICE driver against such situation.
To fix this, make sure we clear existing stale settings out when
handling VIRTCHNL_OP_CONFIG_VSI_QUEUES. This ensures we remove the
previous settings.
Calling ice_vf_vsi_dis_single_txq should be safe as it will do nothing if
the queue is not configured. The function already handles the case when the
Tx queue is not currently configured and exits with a 0 return in that
case.

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.
