Subject: Re: [net-next 1/9] igb: Update RXDCTL/TXDCTL configurations
Date: Thu, 29 Sep 2011 14:29:40 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4E84E344.2090201@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <CACqU3MV64hahK0s7nDqNaRemZiygq33BgaY6_v9hh0iKX42Mfw@mail.gmail.com>
This is due to a HW errata. Specifically HW errata 26 in the spec
update at
http://download.intel.com/design/network/specupdt/82576_SPECUPDATE.pdf.
It essentially states that write back does not occur on MSI-X interrupt
events so we need to keep WTHRESH at 1 in order to avoid any false hangs.
Thanks,
Alex
