![]() This patch handles a TX-timeout as follows: 1) This patch gathers and prints the following info that can help in diagnosing the cause of a TX-timeout. a) TX queue and completion queue entries. b) SKB and TCP/UDP header details. 2) For Lancer NICs (TX-timeout recovery is not supported for BE3/Skyhawk-R NICs), it recovers from the TX timeout as follows: a) On a TX-timeout, driver sets the PHYSDEV_CONTROL_FW_RESET_MASK bit in the PHYSDEV_CONTROL register. Lancer firmware goes into an error state and indicates this back to the driver via a bit in a doorbell register. b) Driver detects this and calls be_err_recover(). DMA is disabled, all pending TX skbs are unmapped and freed (be_close()). All rings are destroyed (be_clear()). c) The driver waits for the FW to re-initialize and re-creates all rings along with other data structs (be_resume()) Signed-off-by: Suresh Reddy <suresh.reddy@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

README
Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
