Subject: [PATCH net-next] net-bnx2x: dont reload on GRO change
Date: Sat, 18 May 2013 10:14:53 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1368897293.3301.152.camel@edumazet-glaptop> (raw)
From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>
bnx2x_set_features() forces a driver reload if GRO setting is changed.
A reload makes the ethernet port unresponsive for about 5 seconds.
This is not needed in the common case LRO is enabled, as LRO
(TPA_ENABLE_FLAG) has precedence over GRO (GRO_ENABLE_FLAG)
Tested:
Verified that "ethtool -K eth0 gro {on|off}" doesn't blackout
the NIC anymore
