As a result, the default Tx threshold (64 bytes) is now too small to > keep the fifo relatively used and it can result to Tx fifo underflow errors. > As a result of which, it's best to setup the SRAM on supported controllers > so we can always use the NOUFLO bit. > > Cc: <[email protected]> > Cc: <[email protected]> > Cc: <[email protected]> > Cc: Don Fry <[email protected]> > Signed-off-by: Markos Chandras <[email protected]> Applied. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
