Subject: [PATCH v2 6/8] net: thunderx: add mutex to protect mailbox from concurrent calls for same VF
Date: Mon, 18 Feb 2019 09:52:15 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190218095159.3847-7-vlomovtsev@marvell.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190218095159.3847-1-vlomovtsev@marvell.com>

In some cases it could happen that nicvf_send_msg_to_pf() could be called
concurrently for the same NIC VF, and thus re-writing mailbox contents and
breaking messaging sequence with PF by re-writing NICVF data.

This commit is to implement mutex for NICVF to protect mailbox registers
and NICVF messaging control data from concurrent access.
