Doubt on process_backlog

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

 



Hi,

Why do we need to remove the backlog_dev from the poll_list using (list_del function) after the frames are dequeued and the input_pkt_queue is empty in process_backlog() method, there is always a possibility that I can receive frames on the input_pkt_queue for that particular device.

In that case I will have to again insert backlog_dev into the poll_list. This is an overhead .
