From d5e63600aa4533fd9a139d5a1af4e2a09aad2825 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sukadev Bhattiprolu Date: Fri, 21 Jan 2022 18:59:20 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] ibmvnic: don't spin in tasklet BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1959879 [ Upstream commit 48079e7fdd0269d66b1d7d66ae88bd03162464ad ] ibmvnic_tasklet() continuously spins waiting for responses to all capability requests. It does this to avoid encountering an error during initialization of the vnic. However if there is a bug in the VIOS and we do not receive a response to one or more queries the tasklet ends up spinning continuously leading to hard lock ups. If we fail to receive a message from the VIOS it is reasonable to timeout the login attempt rather than spin indefinitely in the tasklet.
