Net device reset can fail when the h/w or f/w is in a bad state. Subsequent netdevice open fails in bnxt_hwrm_stat_ctx_alloc(). The cleanup invokes bnxt_hwrm_resource_free() which inturn calls bnxt_disable_int(). In this routine, the code segment if (ring->fw_ring_id != INVALID_HW_RING_ID) BNXT_CP_DB(cpr->cp_doorbell, cpr->cp_raw_cons); results in NULL pointer dereference as cpr->cp_doorbell is not yet initialized, and fw_ring_id is zero. The fix is to initialize cpr fw_ring_id to INVALID_HW_RING_ID before bnxt_init_chip() is invoked.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
