[PATCH] iw_cxgb4: set correct FetchBurstMax for QPs

[PATCH] iw_cxgb4: set correct FetchBurstMax for QPs

[Steve Wise]

I forgot to add the stable Cc tag when I submitted this, but it is important to
get this patch into 4.9.x:

    iw_cxgb4: set correct FetchBurstMax for QPs

    The current QP FetchBurstMax value is 256B, which
    is incorrect since a WR can exceed that value.  The
    result being a partial WR fetched by hardware, and
    a fatal "bad WR" error posted by the SGE.

    So bump the FetchBurstMax to 512B.

I'm not sure if this is the correct way to request this, but I think I'm
following _option_2 from Documentation/stable_kernel_rules.txt.


Thanks,

Steve.

Now queued up.  Are you sure this isn't also needed in the 4.4-stable
tree?

Hey Greg,  At first, I didn't think it is needed because, while the bug is
indeed present in that code, it is only exposed (and causes problems) with
the new T6 hardware.   But now I think I'd like the fix pulled in 4.4-stable
to avoid any issues if T6 support is pulled into that base.

Thanks!

Steve

How would I pull "T6" support into that kernel?  I'm guessing that's a
much larger issue and isn't something that would normally happen in a
stable kernel release?

I guess that won't happen.  To enable the T6 adapter several commits to 
drivers/net/ethernet/chelsio/cxgb4 and drivers/infiniband/hw/cxgb4 would 
have to flow into stable, and I guess that will not happen.    Ok, so no 
4.4-stable.

Thanks,

Steve.

The current QP FetchBurstMax value is 256B, which
is incorrect since a WR can exceed that value.  The
result being a partial WR fetched by hardware, and
a fatal "bad WR" error posted by the SGE.

So bump the FetchBurstMax to 512B.
