Subject: [PATCH 0/2] pcnet32: NAPI support
Date: Fri, 8 Sep 2006 15:39:09 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060908223909.GA24356@us.ibm.com> (raw)
These patches to the pcnet32 driver implement NAPI and respond to some
other suggestions found during NAPI development and testing.
The comments from Francois Romieu regarding using spin_lock instead of
spin_lock_irqsave were investigated, but since interrupts have to be
disabled to prevent the interrupt handler from deadlocking, and since I
would probably forget sometime, it is safer to leave the locking as it
is. The requested mmiowb calls were added.
Please appply to 2.6.19.
1/2 NAPI implementation.
2/2 Magic number cleanup.
