From: Brian Vazquez During the IDPF init phase, the mailbox runs in poll mode until it is configured to properly handle interrupts. The previous delay of 300ms is excessively long for the mailbox polling mechanism, which causes a slow initialization of ~2s: echo 0000:06:12.4 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/idpf/bind [ 52.444239] idpf 0000:06:12.4: enabling device (0000 -> 0002) [ 52.485005] idpf 0000:06:12.4: Device HW Reset initiated [ 54.177181] idpf 0000:06:12.4: PTP init failed, err=-EOPNOTSUPP [ 54.206177] idpf 0000:06:12.4: Minimum RX descriptor support not provided, using the default [ 54.206182] idpf 0000:06:12.4: Minimum TX descriptor support not provided, using the default Changing the delay to 300us avoids the delays during the initial mailbox transactions, making the init phase much faster: [ 83.342590] idpf 0000:06:12.4: enabling device (0000 -> 0002) [ 83.384402] idpf 0000:06:12.4: Device HW Reset initiated [ 83.518323] idpf 0000:06:12.4: PTP init failed, err=-EOPNOTSUPP [ 83.547430] idpf 0000:06:12.4: Minimum RX descriptor support not provided, using the default [ 83.547435] idpf 0000:06:12.4: Minimum TX descriptor support not provided, using the default Fixes: 4930fbf419a7 ("idpf: add core init and interrupt request") Signed-off-by: Brian Vazquez Reviewed-by: Aleksandr Loktionov Tested-by: Samuel Salin Signed-off-by: Tony Nguyen --- drivers/net/ethernet/intel/idpf/idpf_lib.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/idpf/idpf_lib.c b/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/idpf/idpf_lib.c index 7a7e101afeb6..7ce4eb71a433 100644 --- a/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/idpf/idpf_lib.c +++ b/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/idpf/idpf_lib.c @@ -1271,7 +1271,7 @@ void idpf_mbx_task(struct work_struct *work) idpf_mb_irq_enable(adapter); else queue_delayed_work(adapter->mbx_wq, &adapter->mbx_task, - msecs_to_jiffies(300)); + usecs_to_jiffies(300)); idpf_recv_mb_msg(adapter); } -- 2.47.1
