[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 1/2] net/sfc: restart RxQ in case of exception on its event queue

Andrew Rybchenko arybchenko at solarflare.com
Fri Dec 2 08:41:20 CET 2016


Examples of recoverable exceptions are:
 - unexpected Rx event (Rx scatter abort with non-zero size,
   too big Rx descriptors batch completed)
 - Rx error due to invalid Rx descriptors push
 - Rx error due to Rx descriptor read error (e.g. unmapped Rx ring
   and denied by IOMMU)
