In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ixgbe: Fix NULL pointer dereference in ethtool loopback test

The ixgbe driver currently generates a NULL pointer dereference when

To address this I have added code that will check for a q_vector before
returning a napi_id value. If a q_
