[PATCH 01/14] brcmfmac: Relax scheduling of msgbuf worker on high throughput.

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

 



From: Hante Meuleman <meuleman@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

On every tx the flow worker is triggered. When running high
throughput data this causes an excessive amount of times the worker
gets activated. This patch starts scheduling the worker more relaxed
once outstanding tx has reached a certain depth.
