Subject: [PATCH net] virtio-net: serialize tx routine during reset
Date: Wed, 28 Jun 2017 09:51:03 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1498614663-7711-1-git-send-email-jasowang@redhat.com> (raw)

We don't hold any tx lock when trying to disable TX during reset, this
would lead a use after free since ndo_start_xmit() tries to access
the virtqueue which has already been freed. Fix this by using
netif_tx_disable() before freeing the vqs, this could make sure no tx
after vq freeing.
