Subject: [PATCH net-next V2 3/3] net/mlx5e: Refine TX timeout handling to skip non-timed-out SQ
Date: Mon, 12 Jan 2026 11:16:23 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1768209383-1546791-4-git-send-email-tariqt@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1768209383-1546791-1-git-send-email-tariqt@nvidia.com>

From: Shahar Shitrit <shshitrit@nvidia.com>

mlx5e_tx_timeout_work() is invoked when the dev_watchdog reports a
timed-out TX queue. Currently, the recovery flow is triggered for all
stopped SQs, which is not always correct — some SQs may be temporarily
stopped without actually timing out. Attempting to recover such SQs
results in no EQE being polled (since no real timeout occurred), which
the driver misinterprets as a recovery failure, unnecessarily causing
channel reopening.

Improve the logic to initiate recovery only for SQs that are both
stopped and timed out. Utilize the helper introduced in the previous
patch to determine whether the netdevice watchdog timeout period has
elapsed since the SQ’s last transmit timestamp.
