Reducing to 5 KB avoids these hangs and matches\nthe TSN recommendation in I225/I226 SW User Manual Section 7.5.4.\n\nThe 8 KB \"freed\" by this change is currently unused. This reduction\nis not expected to impact throughput, as the i226 is PCIe-limited\nfor small TSN packets rather than TX-buffer-limited." } ], "affected": [ { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "drivers/net/ethernet/intel/igc/igc_defines.h" ], "versions": [ { "version": "0d58cdc902dace2298406b3972def04f55e3d775", "lessThan": "88037973c8ef6032bf84e9955595f8b20bc14c21", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "0d58cdc902dace2298406b3972def04f55e3d775", "lessThan": "8ad1b6c1e63d25f5465b7a8aa403bdcee84b86f9", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" } ] }, { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "affected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "drivers/net/ethernet/intel/igc/igc_defines.h" ], "versions": [ { "version": "6.16", "status": "affected" }, { "version": "0", "lessThan": "6.16", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.18.8", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.18.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.19", "lessThanOrEqual": "*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "original_commit_for_fix" } ] } ], "cpeApplicability": [ { "nodes": [ { "operator": "OR", "negate": false, "cpeMatch": [ { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.16", "versionEndExcluding": "6.18.8" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.16", "versionEndExcluding": "6.19" } ] } ] } ], "references": [ { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/88037973c8ef6032bf84e9955595f8b20bc14c21" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/8ad1b6c1e63d25f5465b7a8aa403bdcee84b86f9" } ], "title": "igc: Reduce TSN TX packet buffer from 7KB to 5KB per queue", "x_generator": { "engine": "bippy-1.2.0" } } } }
