From bc602280871cdedc906f622b036f5799f16c13c2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Claudiu Manoil Date: Wed, 6 May 2015 18:07:29 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] gianfar: Move TxFIFO underrun handling to reset path Handle TxFIFO underrun exceptions outside the fast path. A controller reset is more reliable in this exceptional case, as opposed to re-enabling on-the-fly the Tx DMA. As the controller reset is handled outside the fast path by the reset_gfar() workqueue handler, the locking scheme on the Tx path is significantly simplified. Because the Tx processing (xmit queues and tx napi) is disabled during controller reset, tstat access from xmit does not require locking. So the scope of the txlock on the processing path is now reduced to num_txbdfree, which is shared only between process context (xmit) and softirq (clean_tx_ring). As a result, the txlock must not guard against interrupt context, and the spin_lock_irqsave() from xmit can be replaced by spin_lock_bh(). Likewise, the locking has been downgraded for clean_tx_ring(). Signed-off-by: Claudiu Manoil Signed-off-by: David S.
