net: stmmac: bump tc when get underflow error from DMA descriptor In DMA threshold mode, frame underflow errors may sometimes occur when the TC(threshold control) value is not enough. The TC value need to be bumped up in this case. There is no underflow interrupt bit on DMA_CH(#i)_Status of dwmac4, so the DMA threshold cannot be bumped up in stmmac_dma_interrupt(). The i.mx8mp board observed an underflow error while running NFS boot, the NFS rootfs could not be mounted. The underflow error can be got from the DMA descriptor TDES3 on dwmac4. This patch bump up tc value once underflow error is got from TDES3. Signed-off-by: Xiaoliang Yang <redacted>5 queues with FIFO cut-through mode can work well after applying this patch.
This never worked, correct? It's not a regression fix?
