[PATCH] net: fec: Detect and recover receive queue hangs

From: Chris Lesiak
Date: Thu Nov 17 2016 - 21:52:43 EST


This corrects a problem that appears to be similar to ERR006358. But
while ERR006358 is a race when the tx queue transitions from empty to
not empty, this problem is a race when the rx queue transitions from
full to not full.

The symptom is a receive queue that is stuck. The ENET_RDAR register
will read 0, indicating that there are no empty receive descriptors in
the receive ring. Since no additional frames can be queued, no RXF
interrupts occur.

This problem can be triggered with a 1 Gb link and about 400 Mbps of
traffic.

This patch detects this condition, sets the work_rx bit, and
reschedules the poll method.
