There were a couple cases where the ITR value generated via the adaptive ITR scheme could exceed 126. This resulted in the value becoming either 0 or something less than 10. Switching back and forth between a value less than 10 and a value greater than 10 can cause issues as certain hardware features such as RSC to not function well when the ITR value has dropped that low.

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.
