[RFC] add DMA setup FIS auto-activate feature

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



hi,
The SATA spec defines DMA setup FIS auto-activate optimization for FPDMA
transfers. I had an attempt to add it, though my test doesn't show obvious
performance improvement (not worse too), I wonder why not add this feature?
