[PATCH 0/2] ath10k: pci: Two PCI related fixups

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

 



This set addresses two issues one a contrived but real corner-case crash
scenario and the other a simple typo.

Debugging on a QCS405 which has an ath10k attached to PCIe its been found
that a loop similar to the below [1] will cause.

1. A significant slow-down in the time it takes an individual ioread32()
   to complete.
2. A secure watchdog bite.

This is as a result of the restart routine and the dump register routine
running in parallel and a period of time during restart where dumping
registers is unstable.

The second patch is a simple fix to an apparent copy/paste error describing
the behavior of a similar dump function.

done;
