From 6e7676c1a76aed6e957611d8d7a9e5592e23aeba Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Changli Gao Date: Tue, 27 Apr 2010 15:07:33 -0700 Subject: net: batch skb dequeueing from softnet input_pkt_queue batch skb dequeueing from softnet input_pkt_queue to reduce potential lock contention when RPS is enabled. Note: in the worst case, the number of packets in a softnet_data may be double of netdev_max_backlog. Signed-off-by: Changli Gao Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S.
