rx reporter
-----------
The rx reporter is responsible for reporting and recovering of the following two error scenarios:
- RX queues initialization (population) timeout
RX queues descriptors population on ring initialization is done in
napi context via triggering an irq, in case of a failure to get
the minimum amount of descriptors, a timeout would occur and it
could be recoverable by polling the EQ (Event Queue).
- RX completions with errors (reported by HW on interrupt context)
Report on rx completion error.
Recover (if needed) by flushing the related queue and reset it.
RX reporter also supports on demand diagnose callback, on which it
provides real time information of its receive queues status.
- Diagnose rx queues status, and corresponding completion queue::
$ devlink health diagnose pci/0000:82:00.0 reporter rx
NOTE: This command has valid output only when interface is up, otherwise the command has empty output.
- Show number of rx errors indicated, number of recover flows ended successfully,
