Changing the features (receive checksumming) requires the hardware to be reprogrammed, and also changes the checks in the receive packet processing. The current implementation has a race - fec_set_features() changes the flags which alter the receive packet processing while the adapter is active, and potentially receiving frames. Only after we've modified the software flag do we shutdown and reconfigure the hardware. This can lead to packets being received and marked with a valid checksum (via CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY) when the hardware checksum validation has not yet been enabled. We must quiesce the device, then change the software configuration for this feature, and then resume the device if it was previously running. The resulting code structure also allows us to add other configuration features in this path without having to quiesce and resume the network interface and device.
