[PATCH 3/3] wil6210: prefetch head of packet

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

 



As soon as skb is ready to be reaped, prefetch 1-st cache line.
This accelerates data access that is performed later, during the
packet classification by the driver and IP stack.
