Subject: [PATCH 6/7]:
Date: Mon, 07 Jan 2008 21:40:51 -0800 (PST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080107.214051.95043537.davem@davemloft.net> (raw)
[NET]: Stop polling when napi_disable() is pending.
This finally adds the code in net_rx_action() to break out of the
->poll()'ing loop when a napi_disable() is found to be pending.
Now, even if a device is being flooded with packets it can be cleanly
brought down.
