Subject: [PATCH -next 3/6] bnx2: Adjust flow control water marks.
Date: Mon, 15 Feb 2010 21:42:09 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1266298932-28129-3-git-send-email-mchan@broadcom.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1266298932-28129-2-git-send-email-mchan@broadcom.com>

The current water marks are too high and can cause unnecessary flow
control frames.
