From fc4ac67bc98f1d54ec0ef8bcddf54892ad78e1f9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexander Duyck Date: Sat, 28 Sep 2013 06:00:22 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] i40e: Do not directly increment Tx next_to_use Avoid directly incrementing next_to_use for multiple reasons. The main reason being that if we directly increment it then it can attain a state where it is equal to the ring count. Technically this is a state it should not be able to reach but the way this is written it now can. This patch pulls the value off into a register and then increments it and writes back either the value or 0 depending on if the value is equal to the ring count.
