There are some concurrency issues on devices w/ 2 CPUs related to the handling of Rx and Tx interrupts. eTSEC has separate interrupt lines for Rx and Tx but a single imask register to mask these interrupts and a single NAPI instance to handle both Rx and Tx work. As a result, the Rx and Tx ISRs are identical, both are invoking gfar_schedule_cleanup(), however both handlers can be entered at the same time when the Rx and Tx interrupts are taken by different CPUs. In this case spurrious interrupts (SPU) show up (in /proc/interrupts) indicating a concurrency issue. Also, Tx overruns followed by Tx timeout have been observed under heavy Tx traffic load. To address these issues, the schedule cleanup ISR part has been changed to handle the Rx and Tx interrupts independently. The patch adds a separate NAPI poll routine for Tx cleanup to be triggerred independently by the Tx confirmation interrupts only. Existing poll functions are modified to handle only the Rx path processing. The Tx poll routine does not need a budget, since Tx processing doesn't consume NAPI budget, and hence it is registered with minimum NAPI weight. NAPI scheduling does not require locking since there are different NAPI instances between the Rx and Tx confirmation paths now. So, the patch fixes the occurence of spurrious Rx/Tx interrupts. Tx overruns also occur less frequently now. Signed-off-by: Claudiu Manoil <claudiu.manoil@freescale.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> |
