[PATCH 5.9 049/252] bnxt_en: Fix counter overflow logic.

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

 



From: Michael Chan <michael.chan@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit fa97f303fa4cf8469fd3d1ef29da69c0a3f6ddc8 ]

bnxt_add_one_ctr() adds a hardware counter to a software counter and
adjusts for the hardware counter wraparound against the mask.  The logic
assumes that the hardware counter is always smaller than or equal to
the mask.

This assumption is mostly correct.  But in some cases if the firmware
is older and does not provide the accurate mask, the driver can use
a mask that is smaller than the actual hardware mask.  This can cause
some extra carry bits to be added to the software counter, resulting in
counters that far exceed the actual value.  Fix it by masking the
hardware counter with the mask passed into bnxt_add_one_ctr().

Fixes: fea6b3335527 ("bnxt_en: Accumulate all counters.")
