David, Here are three clean up patches, plus one that adds a socket option for LLS.
Patch 1 converts low latency sockets to sched_clock. Patch 2 removes the config menu for NET_LL_RX_POLL and defaults to y. Patch 3 converts sysctl_net_ll_poll into an unsigned int Patch 4 adds an SO_LL socket option to allow per-socket control of busy polling. I will reply to this thread with a patch to sockperf that enables the socket option. (unchanged from v2) Again, thanks to everyone for their comments. -Eliezer Change log: v3 - Suggested by David Miller and Stephen Hemminger: added a patch to covert from get_cycles() to sched_clock(), remove dependency on X86_TSC. - Suggested by Eric Dumazet: un-exported sysctl_net_ll_poll since for now it's not needed in modules. v2 - added a patch to convert sysctl_net_ll_poll into an unsigned int. - suggested by Eric Dimazet: treat sk_ll_usec as a u_int rather than a u_long. - suggested by Ben Huchings: allow unprivileged user to decrease SO_LL value, correct return value when operation is not allowed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Windows: Build for Windows Store. http://p.sf.net/sfu/windows-dev2dev _______________________________________________ E1000-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/e1000-devel To learn more about Intel® Ethernet, visit http://communities.intel.com/community/wired
