>
> From: Jacob Keller <[email protected]>
> 
> The ice driver currently attempts to destroy and re-initialize the Tx
> timestamp tracker during the reset flow. The release of the Tx tracker
> only happened during CORE reset or GLOBAL reset. The ice_ptp_rebuild()
> function always calls the ice_ptp_init_tx function which will allocate
> a new tracker data structure, resulting in memory leaks during PF reset.
>
> Certainly the driver should not be allocating a new tracker without
> removing the old tracker data, as this results in a memory leak.
> Additionally, there's no reason to remove the tracker memory during a
> reset. Remove this logic from the reset and rebuild flow. Instead of
> releasing the Tx tracker, flush outstanding timestamps just before we
> reset the PHY timestamp block in ice_ptp_cfg_phy_interrupt().
