Subject: [PATCH net-next] virtio-net: avoid unnecessary sg initialzation
Date: Thu, 27 Aug 2015 14:53:06 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1440658386-9544-1-git-send-email-jasowang@redhat.com> (raw)
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.
