The MTU handler (enic_set_mtu) performs the following steps. 1. Stop NIC Rx 2. Change Rx handler '(struct rte_eth_dev)->rx_pkt_burst' to the dummy handler and sleep a while to quiesce 3. Re-allocate/initialize Rx structures 4. Change Rx handler back to the real handler (e.g. enic_noscatter_recv_pkts) enic_set_mtu does not update the recently introduced fast-path pointer '(struct rte_eth_fp_ops)->rx_pkt_burst'. Since rte_eth_rx_burst only uses the fast-path pointer, it keeps invoking the real Rx handler, not the dummy one set by (2). And, (3) causes a segfault in the real Rx handler (e.g. dereferencing freed structures). Fix the segfault by updating the fast-path pointer as well.
