[ Upstream commit 407618d66dba55e7db1278872e8be106808bbe91 ]
On DWMAC3 and later, there's a RX Watchdog interrupt that's used for
interrupt coalescing. It's known to be buggy on some platforms, and
dwmac-socfpga appears to be one of them. Changing the interrupt
coalescing from ethtool doesn't appear to have any effect here.
Without disabling RIWT (Received Interrupt Watchdog Timer, I
believe...), we observe latencies while receiving traffic that amount to
around ~0.4ms. This was discovered with NTP but can be easily reproduced
with a simple ping. Without this patch :
64 bytes from 192.168.5.2: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.657 ms
With this patch :
64 bytes from 192.168.5.2: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.254 ms

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
