From 6a683415da2b82f8290dad067ebb649b19de77b3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior Date: Thu, 27 Mar 2014 14:09:02 +0100 Subject: net: gianfar: do not try to cleanup TX packets if they are not done What I observe is that the TX queue is not empty and does not make any progress. gfar_clean_tx_ring() does not clean up the packet because it is not completed yet. The root cause is that the DMA engine did not start yet (it was preempted before doing so) and that dumb loop, loops until that packet is gone. This is broken since c233cf4 ("gianfar: Fix tx napi polling"). What remains are spurious interrupts if CPU0 cleans up TX packages and CPU1 returns with IRQ_NONE.
