[PATCH net-next 1/3] virtio_net: enable irq for the control vq

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

 



Control vq polling request results consume more CPU.
Especially when dim issues more control requests to the device,
it's beneficial to the guest to enable control vq's irq.
