From b17233d385d0b6b43ecf81d43008cb1bbb008166 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stephane Grosjean Date: Wed, 23 Jun 2021 16:26:00 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] can: peak_pciefd: pucan_handle_status(): fix a potential starvation issue in TX path Rather than just indicating that transmission can start, this patch requires the explicit flushing of the network TX queue when the driver is informed by the device that it can transmit, next to its configuration. In this way, if frames have already been written by the application, they will actually be transmitted.
