Subject: e1000e: Modify Tx/Rx configurations to avoid null pointer dereferences in e1000_open
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=0845d45e900cad5f7f855a7a6a21c33477800b1f;p=linux-beck.git

e1000e: Modify Tx/Rx configurations to avoid null pointer dereferences in e1000_open

When e1000e_setup_rx_resources is failed in e1000_open,
e1000e_free_tx_resources in "err_setup_rx" segment is executed.
"writel(0, tx_ring->head)" statement in e1000_clean_tx_ring
in e1000e_free_tx_resources will cause a null poonter dereference(crash),
because "tx_ring->head" is only assigned in e1000_configure_tx
in e1000_configure, but it is after e1000e_setup_rx_resources.

This patch moves head/tail register writing to e1000_configure_tx/rx,
which can fix this problem. It is inspired by igb_configure_tx_ring
in the igb driver.

Specially, thank Alexander Duyck for his valuable suggestion.
