[PATCH net-next v2 1/2] virtio_net: enable irq for the control vq

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

 



If the device does not respond to a request for a long time,
then control vq polling elevates CPU utilization, a problem that
exacerbates with more command requests.

Enabling control vq's irq is advantageous for the guest, and
this still doesn't support concurrent requests.

This code is basically from Jason:
