v2:
-add need_resched check.
-apply same logic to sq.
v3:
-use cond_resched instead.
v4:
-add fixes tag

Does this really address the case when the virtqueue is very large?

Thanks

it does in that a very large queue is still just 64k in size.
we might however have 64k of these queues.


Ok, but we have other similar loops especially the refill, I think we may need cond_resched() there as well.

Thanks



         }

         for (i = 0; i < vi->max_queue_pairs; i++) {
                 struct virtqueue *vq = vi->rq[i].vq;
                 while ((buf = virtqueue_detach_unused_buf(vq)) != NULL)
