[PATCH net v3 0/2] net: nixge: fix tasklet and DMA teardown
From: Myeonghun Pak
Date: Sat Oct 17 2026 - 22:08:55 EST
Separate the IRQ/tasklet ordering fix and the DMA shutdown fix from
v2, as requested by Daniel Machon.
Patch 1 releases both IRQ handlers before draining dma_err_tasklet.
Patch 2 masks channel interrupts after recovery has stopped and waits
for DMA reset completion before releasing the buffers. On reset timeout,
it retains those buffers and prevents a later open from replacing them.
Changes in v3:
- Split the IRQ/tasklet ordering fix and DMA shutdown fix into two patches.
- Give each fix its own subject and commit message.
- Order the nixge_stop() local declarations longest to shortest (RXT).
Changes in v2:
- Wait for DMA reset completion; retain buffers and reject reopen on timeout.
v2: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20261004042702.1130389-1-mhun512@xxxxxxxxx/

Based on net commit 6dc989ea46b96ce170840174b4a38c4a387fb005.
Found by code inspection. No hardware testing.
