Subject: [PATCH net 3/6] net/mlx5e: Fix misidentification of ASO CQE during poll loop
Date: Thu, 12 Feb 2026 12:32:14 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260212103217.1752943-4-tariqt@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260212103217.1752943-1-tariqt@nvidia.com>
From: Gal Pressman <gal@nvidia.com>
The ASO completion poll loop uses usleep_range() which can sleep much
longer than requested due to scheduler latency. Under load, we witnessed
a 20ms+ delay until the process was rescheduled, causing the jiffies
based timeout to expire while the thread is sleeping.
The original do-while loop structure (poll, sleep, check timeout) would
exit without a final poll when waking after timeout, missing a CQE that
arrived during sleep.
Restructure the loop by moving the poll into the while condition,
ensuring we always poll after sleeping, catching CQEs that arrived
during that time.
Fixes: 739cfa34518e ("net/mlx5: Make ASO poll CQ usable in atomic context")
Fixes: 7e3fce82d945 ("net/mlx5e: Overcome slow response for first macsec ASO WQE")
