From 547c890cfd26010e01b3faf98f29ca9b2252c8d8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jason Wang Date: Thu, 27 Aug 2015 14:53:06 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] virtio-net: avoid unnecessary sg initialzation Usually an skb does not have up to MAX_SKB_FRAGS frags. So no need to initialize the unuse part of sg. This patch initialize the sg based on the real number it will used: - during xmit, it could be inferred from nr_frags and can_push. - for small receive buffer, it will also be 2. Cc: Michael S.
