Subject: [PATCH 3/3] net: fs_enet: make rx_copybreak value configurable
Date: Wed, 24 Aug 2016 12:36:44 +0200 (CEST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <0609ecd8fa7ecaa99a386e17f47027349cc3fdda.1472033140.git.christophe.leroy@c-s.fr> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1472033140.git.christophe.leroy@c-s.fr>

Measurement shows that on a MPC8xx running at 132MHz, the optimal
limit is 112:
* 114 bytes packets are processed in 147 TB ticks with higher copybreak
* 114 bytes packets are processed in 148 TB ticks with lower copybreak
* 128 bytes packets are processed in 154 TB ticks with higher copybreak
* 128 bytes packets are processed in 148 TB ticks with lower copybreak
* 238 bytes packets are processed in 172 TB ticks with higher copybreak
* 238 bytes packets are processed in 148 TB ticks with lower copybreak

However it might be different on other processors
and/or frequencies. So it is useful to make it configurable.
