[PATCH net-next 08/16] ibmveth: Don't receive packets when the napi budget == 0

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

 



Processing any incoming packets with a with a napi budget of 0
is incorrect driver behavior.

This matters as netpoll will shortly call drivers with a budget of 0
to avoid receive packet processing happening in hard irq context.
