Subject: [PATCH 1/4]: powerpc/cell spidernet burst alignment patch.
Date: Fri, 11 Aug 2006 12:06:30 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060811170630.GI10638@austin.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20060811170337.GH10638@austin.ibm.com>



This patch increases the Burst Address alignment from 64 to 1024 in the
Spidernet driver. This improves transmit performance for large packets
from about 100Mbps to 300-400Mbps.
