For the rare case where the device runs out of free rx buffer
descriptors (in case of pressure on kernel memory),
and the napi handler continuously fail to refill new Rx descriptors
until device rx queue totally runs out of all free rx buffers
to post incoming packet, leading to a deadlock:
* The device won't send interrupts since all the new
Rx packets will be dropped.
* The napi handler won't try to allocate new Rx descriptors
since allocation is part of NAPI that's not being invoked any more
The fix involves detecting this scenario and rescheduling NAPI
(to refill buffers) by the keepalive/watchdog task.

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.
