From 857c99059e441d0a8afdfa0bc687463e8e61a761 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sathya Perla Date: Mon, 22 Aug 2011 19:41:51 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] be2net: Fix race in posting rx buffers. There is a possibility of be_post_rx_frags() being called simultaneously from both be_worker() (when rx_post_starved) and be_poll_rx() (when rxq->used is 0). This can be avoided by posting rx buffers only when some completions have been reaped. Signed-off-by: Sathya Perla Signed-off-by: David S.
