From 1130383c174499826a3f01486e574e89be17e2d2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: stephen hemminger Date: Tue, 24 Jan 2017 13:06:15 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] netvsc: call netif_receive_skb To improve performance, netvsc can call network stack directly and avoid the local backlog queue. This is safe since incoming packets are handled in softirq context already because the receive function callback is called from a tasklet. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger Signed-off-by: David S.
