mainlining shenanigans
On driver termination, after the driver stops fw logging by writing a register on the chip, the driver immediately unmaps and frees the logging buffer, without confirming in any way that the chip has received the write and terminated the logging. As termination on the chip is not immediate, the chip may issue a dma request to the now unmapped dma buffer, resulting in a iommu fault. Change the driver to receive a confirmation that logging ahs been terminated. As the driver always issues an SLI reset with the device as part of shutdown, and as part of that is receiving confirmation that the reset is complete - the driver was modified to perform the write to disable fw logging prior to the SLI reset and only free the fw log buffer after the SLI reset is complete. That guarantees use of the fw log buffer is fully terminated when it is unmapped.

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.
