[PATCH net 6/7] qeth: do not turn on SG per default

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

 



According to recent performance measurements, turning on net_device
feature NETIF_F_SG only behaves well, but turning on feature
NETIF_F_GSO shows bad results. Since the kernel activates NETIF_F_GSO
automatically as soon as the driver configures feature NETIF_F_SG, qeth
should not activate feature NETIF_F_SG per default, until the qeth
problems with NETIF_F_GSO are solved.
