[PATCH v1] mlx4_core: fix wrong comment about the reason of subtract one from the max_cqes

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

 



From: Dotan Barak <dotanb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The reason for the pre-allocation of one CQE is to enable resizing of
the CQ.
Fix comment accordingly.
