Contention for the mailbox interface may occur during driver initialization (immediately after a function reset), between mailbox commands initiated via ioctl (bsg) and those driver requested by the driver. After setting SLI_ACTIVE flag for a port, there is a window in which the driver will allow an ioctl to be initiated while the adapter is initializing and issuing mailbox commands via polling. The polling logic then gets confused. Correct by having thread setting SLI_ACTIVE spot an active mailbox command and allow it complete before proceeding.

README
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.
