Subject: [PATCH net v2 11/15] ice: wait for in-flight Tx timestamps before flushing the tracker
Date: Thu, 8 Oct 2026 14:56:08 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261008215614.1987250-12-anthony.l.nguyen@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261008215614.1987250-1-anthony.l.nguyen@intel.com>
From: Petr Oros <poros@redhat.com>
ice_ptp_flush_tx_tracker() frees every tracked request, but a request
whose timestamp is still being captured by the PHY at that moment is
freed without touching the PHY entry. The ready bit published shortly
after has no tracked owner, and the PHY does not raise another Tx
timestamp interrupt until every outstanding ready bit is read, so
delivery for the whole quad degrades to the periodic work.
Wait up to 10 ms (per port) for in-flight captures to publish their ready
bits before flushing, so the flush clears them together with the rest.
Note that the ice_ptp_flush_tx_tracker() function was introduced along with
the original E810 support, but that device does not have a ready bitmap.
Only later devices (E822, E825, E830) have the bitmap and potential issues
with internal tracking. Thus, skip the wait for E810 by checking the
tx->has_ready_bitmap flag.
Fixes: 10e4b4a3a3e1 ("ice: check Tx timestamp memory register for ready timestamps")
