From b02e60c86eac4451543f3d2c695545baf093e9ea Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Suresh Reddy Date: Wed, 6 May 2015 05:30:36 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] be2net: post full RXQ on interface enable When an RXQ is created in be_open(), the driver currently posts only 64 buffers. This sometimes results in packet drops when there is a traffic burst as soon as the interface is enabled. This patch fixes this problem by posting the full RXQ on interface enable.
