Subject: [PATCH net] bnxt: do not busy-poll when link is down
Date: Tue, 22 Nov 2016 13:14:08 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1479838448-44877-1-git-send-email-gospo@broadcom.com> (raw)

When busy polling while a link is down (during a link-flap test), TX
timeouts were observed as well as the following messages in the ring
buffer:

bnxt_en 0008:01:00.2 enP8p1s0f2d2: Resp cmpl intr err msg: 0x51
bnxt_en 0008:01:00.2 enP8p1s0f2d2: hwrm_ring_free tx failed. rc:-1
bnxt_en 0008:01:00.2 enP8p1s0f2d2: Resp cmpl intr err msg: 0x51
bnxt_en 0008:01:00.2 enP8p1s0f2d2: hwrm_ring_free rx failed. rc:-1

These were resolved by checking for link status and returning if link
was not up.
