Subject: [PATCH v3 07/12] igb: Add a note about re-loading timers breaking deterministic replay
Date: Fri, 2 May 2025 13:16:59 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250502031705.100768-8-npiggin@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250502031705.100768-1-npiggin@gmail.com>
Add a note about the problem re-loading timers with default values.
Deterministic replay requires the timers be migrated with the same
value.
