Subject: [PATCH] mlx5: fix race at mlx5_dev_close
Date: Thu, 11 Apr 2024 14:17:40 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240411061740.16495-1-hepeng.0320@bytedance.com> (raw)

From: "hepeng.0320" <hepeng.0320@bytedance.com>

mlx5_dev_close currently will set priv->sh->port[priv->dev_port -
1].nl_ih_port_id to RTE_MAX_ETHPORTS to avoid mlx5_dev_interrupt_nl_cb
to use the port's dev_private, because later the rte_eth_dev_close
will free the dev_private and set the pointer to NULL.

However, since mlx5_dev_interrupt_nl_cb is running in another thread,
I think the race still exists. So perhaps an easy fix is to wait for
1ms to avoid this race.
