From 83982cbe2bf095d258dcb1687b70622cab18347d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vladimir Kondratiev Date: Wed, 8 Jan 2014 11:50:47 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] wil6210: interrupt moderation Use hardware capabilities to limit IRQ generation to about 15 per msec It corresponds to about 7 packets/IRQ when running iperf with default parameters at 1.3Gbps Do not enable this feature in the sniffer (monitor) mode, because interrupt moderation cause timestamp accuracy deterioration. For the sniffer flow, it is important to get precise timestamp. Signed-off-by: Vladimir Kondratiev Signed-off-by: John W.
