Subject: Why does e1000 (in net-2.6) have extra pseudo-netdevices
Date: Fri, 25 Jul 2008 12:04:15 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080725120415.396e479a@extreme> (raw)
Since we have multi-queue tx, and multi-napi, why does E1000 still
have extra fake network devices?
static int __devinit e1000_alloc_queues(struct e1000_adapter *adapter)
{
...
adapter->polling_netdev = kcalloc(adapter->num_rx_queues,
sizeof(struct net_device),
GFP_KERNEL);
