Subject: copybreak and gige network drivers
Date: Mon, 29 Sep 2003 14:25:12 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3F787908.7000305@nortelnetworks.com> (raw)
I'm looking at doing some work on a driver for the gige portion of the
Marvell Disco2.
The existing driver allocates mtu-sized buffers and always passes them
off to the network stack. I'm thinking about adding some copybreak
optimizations, but I'm not sure what value I should use for the
copybreak. I would expect most packets to be on the smaller side.
Any suggestions?
Chris
