[PATCH 5/5] ath10k: use msdu headroom to store txfrag

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

 



Instead of allocating sk_buff for a mere 16-byte
tx fragment list buffer use headroom of the
original msdu sk_buff.

This decreases CPU cache pressure and improves
performance.

Measured improvement on AP135 is 560mbps ->
590mbps of UDP TX briding traffic.
