[ 099/124] sky2: Threshold for Pause Packet is set wrong

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

 



3.8-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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


From: Mirko Lindner <mlindner@xxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 74f9f42c1c1650e74fb464f76644c9041f996851 ]

The sky2 driver sets the Rx Upper Threshold for Pause Packet generation to a
wrong value which leads to only 2kB of RAM remaining space. This can lead to
Rx overflow errors even with activated flow-control.

Fix: We should increase the value to 8192/8
