[PATCH 06/15] iwlagn: update write pointers for all tx queues after wakeup

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

 



From: Ben Cahill <ben.m.cahill@xxxxxxxxx>

Wakeup interrupt has been updating write pointers (indexes, actually) only
for tx queues 0-5.  This is adequate just for 3945, but inadequate for other
devices, all of which have more tx queues.  Now updating all tx/command queues,
so device can be aware of all new tx and host commands enqueued while
device was asleep.

This can potentially improve data traffic bandwidth and/or latency.
