[RFT] ipw2200: fix ucode assertion for RX queue overrun

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Restock the RX queue when there are a lot of unused frames so that the
RX ring buffer doesn't overrun, causing a ucode assertion.  Backport of
patch "iwlwifi: fix ucode assertion for RX queue overrun".

-------------------------------

Sebastian, can you test and ensure that this works for you?  Also, can
you do some throughput testing to ensure that this patch doesn't cause a
throughput regression?  Thanks!
