From 16ee817e4365cdfe665ae8d6f6bc8f09befa1272 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Fabrice Gasnier Date: Tue, 4 Nov 2014 17:08:05 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] stmmac: fix stmmac_tx_avail should be called with TX locked stmmac_tx_avail() may lie if used unprotected. It's using cur_tx and dirty_tx index. These index may be already in use by tx_clean when entering xmit routine. So, this should be called locked. This can cause transmit queue to be stuck, with following message: NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0 (stmmaceth): transmit queue 0 timed out Signed-off-by: Fabrice Gasnier Acked-by: Giuseppe Cavallaro Signed-off-by: David S.
