Message-ID: <20071218181827.5a35d634@shemminger-laptop> Date: Tue, 18 Dec 2007 18:18:27 -0800 From: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@...ux-foundation.org> To: parag.warudkar@...il.com, David Miller <davem@...emloft.net> Cc: netdev@...r.kernel.org, akpm@...ux-foundation.org Subject: [PATCH 1/2] net: flow hash timer power saving The net flow hash randomization timer runs every 10 minutes. This time is low priority and doesn't need to wakeup the CPU.
