From: Stephen Hemminger Date: Tue, 6 Nov 2007 22:12:34 +0000 (-0800) Subject: sky2: status ring race fix X-Git-Tag: v2.6.23.5~7 X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a2b897687d39aea80a8604748a1a48f32e616715;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Fstable.git sky2: status ring race fix patch ab5adecb2d02f3688719dfb5936a82833fcc3955 in mainline. The D-Link PCI-X board (and maybe others) can lie about status ring entries. It seems it will update the register for last status index before completing the DMA for the ring entry. To avoid reading stale data, zap the old entry and check.
