NACK, this is not a good idea, there are specific reasons why the DMA teardown can fail, e.g: when no bandwidth has been allocated at the memory controller level, and we still want to keep tearing down and freeing up resources while we reconfigure the controller one way or the other, this can happen while debugging a system, and this is specific to how GENET is integrated on Broadcom BCM7xxx SoCs. Also, if you ever need to submit more patches, please look at the git log history and use consistent prefixes, for this driver this would be "net: bcmgenet: blah blah" > > Signed-off-by: Nicholas Krause <xerofo...@gmail.com> > --- > drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/genet/bcmgenet.c | 3 ++- > 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) > > diff --git a/drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/genet/bcmgenet.c > b/drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/genet/bcmgenet.c > index 64c1e9d..50e6183 100644 > --- a/drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/genet/bcmgenet.c > +++ b/drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/genet/bcmgenet.c > @@ -2180,7 +2180,8 @@ static void bcmgenet_fini_dma(struct bcmgenet_priv > *priv) > bcmgenet_fini_tx_napi(priv); > > /* disable DMA */ > - bcmgenet_dma_teardown(priv); > + if (bcmgenet_dma_teardown(priv)) > + return; > > for (i = 0; i < priv->num_tx_bds; i++) { > if (priv->tx_cbs[i].skb != NULL) { > -- Florian -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
