Here's a git branch with some updates to the Xen netfront driver, which add a new "smartpoll" mode to the netfront backend protocol, which is basically equivalent to interrupt mitigation. This merges cleanly with current linux-next (it previously just had a small constification conflict). Do you want to take this via the net tree, or are you OK with me submitting them directly? Thanks, J The following changes since commit 9fe6206f400646a2322096b56c59891d530e8d51: Linux 2.6.35 (2010-08-01 15:11:14 -0700) are available in the git repository at: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jeremy/xen.git upstream/netfront Dongxiao Xu (1): xen/netfront: Use smart polling instead of event notification.
