Message-Id: <20140825.163458.1117073971092495452.davem@davemloft.net> Date: Mon, 25 Aug 2014 16:34:58 -0700 (PDT) From: David Miller <davem@...emloft.net> To: netdev@...r.kernel.org Cc: therbert@...gle.com, jhs@...atatu.com, hannes@...essinduktion.org, edumazet@...gle.com, jeffrey.t.kirsher@...el.com, rusty@...tcorp.com.au, dborkman@...hat.com, brouer@...hat.com Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Get rid of ndo_xmit_flush Given Jesper's performance numbers, it's not the way to go. Instead, go with a signalling scheme via new boolean skb->xmit_more. This has several advantages: 1) Nearly trivial driver support, just protect the tail pointer update with the skb->xmit_more check. 2) No extra indirect calls in the non-deferral cases.
