[net-next PATCH 0/2] network performance improvement patches for TI CPSW and Davinci EMAC drivers

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

 



This patch series improves network performance of TI CPSW and Davinci EMAC
drivers during bulk transfer. During heavy Tx load CPDMA may run out of
descriptors and tx queue is stopped. When it descriptors are available it
is reported to the stack via netif_start_queue which doesn't schedule tx
queue immediately, so there can be dead time during continuous transfer,
this can be fixed by using netif_wake_queue api which will schedule tx queue
immediately.

Mugunthan V N (2):
  drivers: net: ethernet: cpsw: use netif_wake_queue() while restarting
    tx queue
  drivers: net: ethernet: davinci_emac: use netif_wake_queue() while
    restarting tx queue
