Subject: [patch 07/30] bcm43xx: Drain TX status before starting IRQs
Date: Wed, 15 Nov 2006 18:43:39 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20061116024511.458086000@sous-sol.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20061116024332.124753000@sous-sol.org
[-- Attachment #1: bcm43xx-drain-tx-status-before-starting-irqs.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1772 bytes --]
-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------
From: Michael Buesch <mb@bu3sch.de>
Drain the Microcode TX-status-FIFO before we enable IRQs.
This is required, because the FIFO may still have entries left
from a previous run. Those would immediately fire after enabling
IRQs and would lead to an oops in the DMA TXstatus handling code.
