Current ENA napi handler doesn't take that into consideration. The napi handler handles Rx packets in a do-while loop. Currently, the budget check happens only after decrementing the budget, therefore the napi handler, in rare cases, could run over MAX_INT packets. In addition to that, this moves all budget related variables to int calculation and stop mixing u32 to avoid ambiguity Fixes: 1738cd3ed342 ("net: ena: Add a driver for Amazon Elastic Network Adapters (ENA)") Signed-off-by: Netanel Belgazal <netanel@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: David S.
