From a3a8749d34d8a5ac071c7ead792bd21ffe328aa0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jesper Dangaard Brouer Date: Mon, 8 Feb 2016 13:15:09 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] ixgbe: bulk free SKBs during TX completion cleanup cycle There is an opportunity to bulk free SKBs during reclaiming of resources after DMA transmit completes in ixgbe_clean_tx_irq. Thus, bulk freeing at this point does not introduce any added latency. Simply use napi_consume_skb() which were recently introduced. The napi_budget parameter is needed by napi_consume_skb() to detect if it is called from netpoll.
