From e97dc3fcf98a32a5eda1e942a36044b95bc58099 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Eric W. Biederman" Date: Fri, 14 Mar 2014 20:47:15 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] netpoll: Warn if more packets are processed than are budgeted There is already a warning for this case in the normal netpoll path, but put a copy here in case how netpoll calls the poll functions causes a differenet result. netpoll will shortly call the napi poll routine with a budget 0 to avoid any rx packets being processed. As nothing does that today we may encounter drivers that have problems so a netpoll specific warning seems desirable. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" Signed-off-by: David S.
