stmmac_xmit() call stmmac_tx_timer_arm() at the end to modify tx timer to do the transmission cleanup work. Imagine such a situation, stmmac enters suspend immediately after tx timer modified, it's expire callback stmmac_tx_clean() would not be invoked. This could affect BQL, since netdev_tx_sent_queue() has been called, but netdev_tx_completed_queue() have not been involved, as a result, dql_avail(&dev_queue->dql) finally always return a negative value. __dev_queue_xmit->__dev_xmit_skb->qdisc_run->__qdisc_run->qdisc_restart->dequeue_skb: if ((q->flags & TCQ_F_ONETXQUEUE) && netif_xmit_frozen_or_stopped(txq)) // __QUEUE_STATE_STACK_XOFF is set Net core will stop transmitting any more. Finillay, net watchdong would timeout. To fix this issue, we should call netdev_tx_reset_queue() in stmmac_resume().

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.
