    net: stmmac: fix broken dma_interrupt handling for multi-queues · 5a6a0445
    Niklas Cassel authored
    There is nothing that says that number of TX queues == number of RX
    queues. E.g. the ARTPEC-6 SoC has 2 TX queues and 1 RX queue.
    
    This code is obviously wrong:
    for (chan = 0; chan < tx_channel_count; chan++) {
        struct stmmac_rx_queue *rx_q = &priv->rx_queue[chan];
    
    priv->rx_queue has size MTL_MAX_RX_QUEUES, so this will send an
    uninitialized napi_struct to __napi_schedule(), causing us to
    crash in net_rx_action(), because napi_struct->poll is zero.

    Since each DMA channel can be used for rx and tx simultaneously,
    the current code should probably be rewritten so that napi_struct is
    embedded in a new struct stmmac_channel.
    That way, stmmac_poll() can call stmmac_tx_clean() on just the tx queue
    where we got the IRQ, instead of looping through all tx queues.
    This is also how the xgbe driver does it (another driver for this IP).
