There is no need for complex checking between the last consumed index
and current consumed index, a simple subtraction will do.

This also eliminates the possibility of a permanent transmit queue stall
under the following conditions:

- one CPU bursts ring-&gt;size worth of traffic (up to 256 buffers), to the
  point where we run out of free descriptors, so we stop the transmit
  queue at the end of bcm_sysport_xmit()

- because of our locking, we have the transmit process disable
  interrupts which means we can be blocking the TX reclamation process

- when TX reclamation finally runs, we will be computing the difference
  between ring-&gt;c_index (last consumed index by SW) and what the HW
  reports through its register

- this register is masked with (ring-&gt;size - 1) = 0xff, which will lead
  to stripping the upper bits of the index (register is 16-bits wide)

- we will be computing last_tx_cn as 0, which means there is no work to
  be done, and we never wake-up the transmit queue, leaving it
  permanently disabled

A practical example is e.g: ring-&gt;c_index aka last_c_index = 12, we
pushed 256 entries, HW consumer index = 268, we mask it with 0xff = 12,
so last_tx_cn == 0, nothing happens.

The problem was introduced in commit
506b0a395f26 ("[netdrv] tg3: APE heartbeat changes"). The bug occurs
because tp-&gt;lock spinlock is held which is obtained in tg3_start
by way of tg3_full_lock(), line 11571. The documentation for usleep_range()
specifically states it cannot be used inside a spinlock.

<title>bnxt_en: close &amp; open NIC, only when the interface is in running state.</title>

bnxt_restore_pf_fw_resources routine frees PF resources by calling
close_nic and allocates the resources back, by doing open_nic. However,
this is not needed, if the PF is already in closed state.

This bug causes the driver to call open the device and call request_irq()
when it is not needed.  Ultimately, pci_disable_msix() will crash
when bnxt_en is unloaded.

This patch fixes the problem by skipping __bnxt_close_nic and
__bnxt_open_nic inside bnxt_restore_pf_fw_resources routine, if the
interface is not running.

Currently, internal error value is returned by the driver, when
hwrm_cfa_flow_alloc() fails due lack of resources.  We should be returning
Linux errno value -ENOSPC instead.

This patch also converts other similar command errors to standard Linux errno

<title>bnxt_en: Fix regressions when setting up MQPRIO TX rings.</title>

<content type='text'>
Recent changes added the bnxt_init_int_mode() call in the driver's open
path whenever ring reservations are changed.  This call was previously
only called in the probe path.  In the open path, if MQPRIO TC has been
setup, the bnxt_init_int_mode() call would reset and mess up the MQPRIO
per TC rings.

Fix it by not re-initilizing bp-&gt;tx_nr_rings_per_tc in
bnxt_init_int_mode().  Instead, initialize it in the probe path only
after the bnxt_init_int_mode() call.

In some conditions when the driver fails to add a flow in HW and returns
an error back to the stack, the stack continues to invoke get_flow_stats()
and/or del_flow() on it. The driver fails these APIs with an error message
"no flow_node for cookie". The message gets logged repeatedly as long as
the stack keeps invoking these functions.

Fix this by removing the corresponding netdev_info() calls from these
functions.

only standard RX rings require vnics to support RFS.  The logic is
