When adding multiple VLANs to the same VSI, the ice_add_vlan code will share the VSI list, so as not to create multiple unnecessary VSI lists. Consider the following flow ice_add_vlan(hw, <VSI 0 VID 7, VSI 0 VID 8, VSI 0 VID 9>) Where we add three VLAN filters for VIDs 7, 8, and 9, all for VSI 0. The ice_add_vlan will create a single vsi_list and share it among all the filters. Later, if we try to remove a VLAN, ice_remove_vlan(hw, <VSI 0 VID 7>) Then the removal code will update the vsi_list and remove VSI 0 from it. But, since the vsi_list is shared, this breaks the list for the other users who reference it. We actually even free the VSI list memory, and may result in segmentation faults. This is due to the way that VLAN rule share VSI lists with reference counts, and is caused because we call ice_rem_update_vsi_list even when the ref_cnt is greater than one. To fix this, handle the case where ref_cnt is greater than one separately. In this case, we need to remove the associated rule without modifying the vsi_list, since it is currently being referenced by another rule. Instead, we just need to decrement the VSI list ref_cnt. The case for handling sharing of VSI lists with multiple VSIs is not currently supported by this code. No such rules will be created today, and this code will require changes if/when such code is added.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
