Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: igb: Do not bring the device up after non-fatal error Commit 004d25060c78 ("igb: Fix igb_down hung on surprise removal") changed igb_io_error_detected() to ignore non-fatal pcie errors in order to avoid hung task that can happen when igb_down() is called multiple times. This caused an issue when processing transient non-fatal errors. igb_io_resume(), which is called after igb_io_error_detected(), assumes that device is brought down by igb_io_error_detected() if the interface is up. This resulted in panic with stacktrace below. [ T3256] igb 0000:09:00.0 haeth0: igb: haeth0 NIC Link is Down [ T292] pcieport 0000:00:1c.5: AER: Uncorrected (Non-Fatal) error received: 0000:09:00.0 [ T292] igb 0000:09:00.0: PCIe Bus Error: severity=Uncorrected (Non-Fatal), type=Transaction Layer, (Requester ID) [ T292] igb 0000:09:00.0: device [8086:1537] error status/mask=00004000/00000000 [ T292] igb 0000:09:00.0: [14] CmpltTO [ 200.105524,009][ T292] igb 0000:09:00.0: AER: TLP Header: 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 [ T292] pcieport 0000:00:1c.5: AER: broadcast error_detected message [ T292] igb 0000:09:00.0: Non-correctable non-fatal error reported.
