Subject: [PATCH net-next] net: thunderx: Fix transmit queue timeout issue
From: Sunil Goutham <sgoutham@...ium.com>
Transmit queue timeout issue is seen in two cases
- Due to a race condition btw setting stop_queue at xmit()
and checking for stopped_queue in NAPI poll routine, at times
transmission from a SQ comes to a halt. This is fixed
by using barriers and also added a check for SQ free descriptors,
incase SQ is stopped and there are only CQE_RX i.e no CQE_TX.
- Contrary to an assumption, a HW errata where HW doesn't stop transmission
even though there are not enough CQEs available for a CQE_TX is
not fixed in T88 pass 2.x. This results in a Qset error with
'CQ_WR_FULL' stalling transmission. This is fixed by adjusting
RXQ's RED levels for CQ level such that there is always enough
space left for CQE_TXs.
