Up until this patch, on every TX timeout we would try to do channels recovery. However, in case of a lost interrupt for an EQ, the channel associated to it cannot be recovered if reopened as it would never get another interrupt on sent/received traffic, and eventually ends up with another TX timeout (Restarting the EQ is not part of channel recovery). This patch adds a mechanism for explicitly polling EQ in case of a TX timeout in order to recover from a lost interrupt. If this is not the case (no pending EQEs), perform a channels full recovery as usual. Once a lost EQE is recovered, it triggers the NAPI to run and handle all pending completions. This will free some budget in the bql (via calling netdev_tx_completed_queue) or by clearing pending TXWQEs and waking up the queue. One of the above actions will move the queue to be ready for transmit again.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
