Date: Mon, 22 Jun 2020 01:25:29 -0400 From: Jonathan Toppins To: rhkernel-list@redhat.com Cc: darcari@redhat.com, nhorman@redhat.com, linville@redhat.com Subject: [PATCH RHEL-8.3] ionic: tame the watchdog timer on reconfig Even with moving netif_tx_disable() to an earlier point when taking down the queues for a reconfiguration, we still end up with the occasional netdev watchdog Tx Timeout complaint. The old method of using netif_trans_update() works fine for queue 0, but has no effect on the remaining queues. Using netif_device_detach() allows us to signal to the watchdog to ignore us for the moment.
