On some platforms, 100/1000/2500 speeds seem to have sometimes problems
reporting false positive tx unit hang during stressful UDP traffic. Likely
other Intel drivers introduce responses to a tx hang. Update the 'tx hang'
comparator with the comparison of the head and tail of ring pointers and
restore the tx_timeout_factor to the previous value (one).
This can be test by using netperf or iperf3 applications.
Example:
iperf3 -s -p 5001
iperf3 -c 192.168.0.2 --udp -p 5001 --time 600 -b 0
netserver -p 16604
netperf -H 192.168.0.2 -l 600 -p 16604 -t UDP_STREAM -- -m 64000

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
