From 9da3f199ab6a1c384fe366fb6ae99af451b85dde Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Robert Hancock Date: Thu, 6 Jun 2019 16:28:17 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] net: axienet: Fix race condition causing TX hang [ Upstream commit 7de44285c1f69ccfbe8be1d6a16fcd956681fee6 ] It is possible that the interrupt handler fires and frees up space in the TX ring in between checking for sufficient TX ring space and stopping the TX queue in axienet_start_xmit. If this happens, the queue wake from the interrupt handler will occur before the queue is stopped, causing a lost wakeup and the adapter's transmit hanging. To avoid this, after stopping the queue, check again whether there is sufficient space in the TX ring. If so, wake up the queue again. Signed-off-by: Robert Hancock Signed-off-by: David S.
