Subject: [PATCH] net: macb: Change interrupt and napi enable order in open
Date: Tue, 7 May 2019 19:59:10 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1557239350-4760-1-git-send-email-harini.katakam@xilinx.com> (raw)

Current order in open:
-> Enable interrupts (macb_init_hw)
-> Enable NAPI
-> Start PHY

Sequence of RX handling:
-> RX interrupt occurs
-> Interrupt is cleared and interrupt bits disabled in handler
-> NAPI is scheduled
-> In NAPI, RX budget is processed and RX interrupts are re-enabled

With the above, on QEMU or fixed link setups (where PHY state doesn't
matter), there's a chance macb RX interrupt occurs before NAPI is
enabled. This will result in NAPI being scheduled before it is enabled.
Fix this macb open by changing the order.

Fixes: ae1f2a56d273 ("net: macb: Added support for many RX queues")
