[PATCH 4/8] net: ll_temac: Handle DMA halt condition caused by buffer underrun

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

 



The SDMA engine used by TEMAC halts operation when it has finished
processing of the last buffer descriptor in the buffer ring.
Unfortunately, no interrupt event is generated when this happens,
so we need to setup another mechanism to make sure DMA operation is
restarted when enough buffers have been added to the ring.
