CPU polling

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

 



Hi, 
   In the device driver if NAPI is enabled along with
OS,   the device is placed in the cpu poll list. I
have two questions:
- What is the frquency of polling? i.e how frequently
is the dev->poll function called?
- How many packets are processed during each instance
of polling?

Thanks,
-IM
