[RFC PATCH 18/19] orinoco: Process bulk of receive interrupt in a tasklet

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

 



Read the packet data off the hardware and straight into an skb in the
interrupt. We have to do this in case we don't process the tasklet in
time.
