The mainline MTK ethernet driver suffers long time from rarly but
annoying tx queue timeouts. We think that this is caused by fixed
dma sizes hardcoded for all SoCs.
We suspect this problem arises from a low level of free TX DMADs,
the TX Ring alomost full.
The transmit timeout is caused by the Tx queue not waking up. The
Tx queue stops when the free counter is less than ring->thres, and
it will wake up once the free counter is greater than ring->thres.
If the CPU is too late to wake up the Tx queues, it may cause a
transmit timeout.
Therefore, we increased the TX and RX DMADs to improve this error
situation.
Use the dma-size implementation from SDK in a per SoC manner. In
difference to SDK we have no RSS feature yet, so all RX/TX sizes
should be raised from 512 to 2048 byte except fqdma on mt7988 to
avoid the tx timeout issue.

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 reStructuredText 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.
