From: Juergen Gross Date: Tue, 10 Jan 2017 13:32:52 +0000 (+0100) Subject: xen/netback: set default upper limit of tx/rx queues to 8 X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=4e0d26b22e79219771e5ffe954986154d37b1439;p=GitHub%2Fexynos8895%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal8895.git xen/netback: set default upper limit of tx/rx queues to 8 [ Upstream commit 56dd5af9bc23d0d5d23bb207c477715b4c2216c5 ] The default for the maximum number of tx/rx queues of one interface is the number of cpus of the system today. As each queue pair reserves 512 grant pages this default consumes a ridiculous number of grants for large guests. Limit the queue number to 8 as default. This value can be modified via a module parameter if required.
