Subject: [PATCH 2/2] net: pxa168_eth: Use dma_wmb/rmb where appropriate
Date: Fri, 13 May 2016 19:57:30 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1463140650-7038-3-git-send-email-jszhang@marvell.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1463140650-7038-1-git-send-email-jszhang@marvell.com>

Update the pxa168_eth driver to use the dma_rmb/wmb calls instead of the
full barriers in order to improve performance: reduced 97ns/39ns on
average in tx/rx path on Marvell BG4CT platform.
