From 4bcb3a37180ee4dffaef8298f373b334a7bedabb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ursula Braun Date: Fri, 10 Oct 2008 21:33:04 +0200 Subject: [S390] qdio: speed up multicast traffic on full HiperSocket queue If an asynchronous HiperSockets queue runs full, no further packet can be sent. In this case the next initiative to give transmitted skbs back to the stack is triggered only by a 10-seconds qdio timer. This timer has been introduced for low multicast traffic scenarios to guarantee freeing of skbs in a limited amount of time. For high HiperSocket multicast traffic scenarios progress checking on the outbound queue should be enforced by tasklet rescheduling.
