    net: busy-poll: return busypolling status to drivers · 364b6055
    Eric Dumazet 提交于
    NAPI drivers use napi_complete_done() or napi_complete() when
    they drained RX ring and right before re-enabling device interrupts.
    
    In busy polling, we can avoid interrupts being delivered since
    we are polling RX ring in a controlled loop.
    
    Drivers can chose to use napi_complete_done() return value
    to reduce interrupts overhead while busy polling is active.
    
    This is optional, legacy drivers should work fine even
    if not updated.
