From 4b652f0db3be891c7b76b109c3b55003b920fc96 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dan Williams Date: Tue, 8 Sep 2009 12:02:15 -0700 Subject: net_dma: poll for a descriptor after allocation failure Handle descriptor allocation failures by polling for a descriptor. The driver will force forward progress when polled. In the best case this polling interval will be the time it takes for one dma memcpy transaction to complete. In the worst case, channel hang, we will need to wait 100ms for the cleanup watchdog to fire (ioatdma driver).
