Dear all, I have noticed the flow control work for mt7621 in the following Openwrt patch: https://git.openwrt.org/?p=openwrt/openwrt.git;a=commit;h=c8f8e59816eca49d776562d2d302bf990a87faf0
However, the problem that the patch is supposed to fix is still occurring, even in combination with other experimental patches submitted. These experiences can be read about here: https://forum.openwrt.org/t/mtk-soc-eth-watchdog-timeout-after-r11573/50000/ However, on this mailing list a user by the name of Kristian claims that disabling flow control helps fix this problem, as can be read here: https://lists.openwrt.org/pipermail/openwrt-devel/2017-November/009882.html >From what I understood, he was running many mt7621 devices commercially, with many of them experiencing the issue, which were all fixed with his own flow control patch. My question is why the decision was made to only disable flow control on port 5 in the above mentioned Openwrt patch? AFAIK, Kristian's own patch disables flow control on all of the ports and he claims the issue is fixed for him. Perhaps the current patch should be extended to disable flow control on all ports? What are people's thoughts on this? Yours sincerely, Jaap _______________________________________________ openwrt-devel mailing list openwrt-devel@lists.openwrt.org https://lists.openwrt.org/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel
