Subject: [patch net-next] team: refine IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE capability
Date: Wed, 18 Jul 2012 19:39:38 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1342633178-1411-1-git-send-email-jiri@resnulli.us> (raw)

Cloned patch of Eric Dumazet for bonding.

Some workloads greatly benefit of IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE capability
on output net device, avoiding dirtying dst refcount.

team currently disables IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE unconditionally.

If all ports have the IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE bit set, then
team dev can also have it in its priv_flags.
