From 12406734051a26e9fe4c8568e931dfddbb72d431 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ron Livne Date: Mon, 14 Jul 2008 23:48:48 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] IPoIB: Use multicast loopback blocking if available Set IB_QP_CREATE_BLOCK_MULTICAST_LOOPBACK for IPoIB's UD QPs if supported by the underlying device. This creates an improvement of up to 39% in bandwidth when sending multicast packets with IPoIB, and an improvment of 12% in cpu usage.
