Message-Id: <1410525231-19851-4-git-send-email-jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com> Date: Fri, 12 Sep 2014 05:33:43 -0700 From: Jeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@...el.com> To: davem@...emloft.net Cc: Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck@...el.com>, netdev@...r.kernel.org, nhorman@...hat.com, sassmann@...hat.com, jogreene@...hat.com, Jeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@...el.com> Subject: [net-next 03/11] ixgbe: Drop Rx alloc at end of Rx cleanup From: Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck@...el.com> This change removes the Rx buffer allocation at the end of ixgbe_clean_rx_irq. The reason for removing this is to avoid the extra latency introduced by the MMIO write. This can amount to somewhere around an extra 100ns of latency and one extra message worth of PCIe bus overhead.
