From fc6320b1a675001ac9599bf82aeba59f47deba6d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thommy Jakobsson Date: Tue, 23 Apr 2013 21:45:11 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] B43: Handle DMA RX descriptor underrun commit 73b82bf0bfbf58e6ff328d3726934370585f6e78 upstream. Add handling of rx descriptor underflow. This fixes a fault that could happen on slow machines, where data is received faster than the CPU can handle. In such a case the device will use up all rx descriptors and refuse to send any more data before confirming that it is ok. This patch enables necessary interrupt to discover such a situation and will handle them by dropping everything in the ring buffer.
