[PATCH 5/5] wil6210: Add support for large packets

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

 



It is possible to configure driver using mtu_max module parameter
by setting it to value in range of 68..7920 inclusive.
This is sub-optimal performance-wise in case packet is larger than 1 page.
mtu_max default value is 2228.
