This commit has fix for RX traffic issues when we stress test the driver with continuous ifconfig up/down under very high traffic conditions. Reason for the issue is that, in existing liquidio_stop function NAPI is disabled even before actual FW/HW interface is brought down via send_rx_ctrl_cmd(lio, 0). Between time frame of NAPI disable and actual interface down in firmware, firmware continuously enqueues rx traffic to host. When interrupt happens for new packets, host irq handler fails in scheduling NAPI as the NAPI is already disabled. After "ifconfig <iface> up", Host re-enables NAPI but cannot schedule it until it receives another Rx interrupt. Host never receives Rx interrupt as it never cleared the Rx interrupt it received during interface down operation. NIC Rx interrupt gets cleared only when Host processes queue and clears the queue counts. Above anomaly leads to other issues like packet overflow in FW/HW queues, backpressure. Fix: This commit fixes this issue by disabling NAPI only after informing firmware to stop queueing packets to host via send_rx_ctrl_cmd(lio, 0). send_rx_ctrl_cmd is not visible in the patch as it is already there in the code. The DOWN command also waits for any pending packets to be processed by NAPI so that the deadlock will not occur.

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.
