Hello:

This series was applied to netdev/net-next.git (main)
by Jakub Kicinski [off-list ref]:

On the Renesas RZ/V2H platform, which has two dwmac4 controllers, we
observed sporadic iperf3 TCP TX failures on one of the controllers, with
throughput dropping from >900Mbit/s to ~1Mbit/s due to TX underflows and
the resulting retransmissions.

Commit 3a6c12a0c6c3 ("net: stmmac: bump tc when get underflow error from
DMA descriptor") made dwmac4 raise the DMA threshold of the queues that
report TX underflows, by increasing a global module parameter 'tc'.
However, this logic does not work correctly across multiple queues and
controllers, and can leave the TX DMA threshold stuck at 64 bytes.

[...]

You are awesome, thank you!
