the current code does 4 memcpys for each completion frame. 1) duplicate the desc 2 + 3) inside kfifo insertion 4) kfifo remove The code simply drops the kfifo and uses a trivial ring buffer. This requires a single memcpy for insertion. There is no removal needed as we can simply use the inserted data for processing. As the code runs inside the NAPI context it is atomic and there is no need for most of the locking. Signed-off-by: John Crispin <john@phrozen.org> Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@codeaurora.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
