Some Hypervisors detach VFs from VMs by instantly causing an FLR event to be generated for a VF. In the mlx4 case, this will cause that VF's comm channel to be disabled before the VM has an opportunity to invoke the VF device's "shutdown" method. The result is that the VF driver on the VM will experience a command timeout during the shutdown process when the Hypervisor does not deliver a command-completion event to the VM. To avoid FW command timeouts on the VM when the driver's shutdown method is invoked, we detect the absence of the VF's comm channel at the very start of the shutdown process. If the comm-channel has already been disabled, we cause all FW commands during the device shutdown process to immediately return success (and thus avoid all command timeouts).

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.
