[PATCH 6.3 024/364] gve: Remove the code of clearing PBA bit

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

 



From: Ziwei Xiao <ziweixiao@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit f4c2e67c1773d2a2632381ee30e9139c1e744c16 ]

Clearing the PBA bit from the driver is race prone and it may lead to
dropped interrupt events. This could potentially lead to the traffic
being completely halted.

Fixes: 5e8c5adf95f8 ("gve: DQO: Add core netdev features")
