Subject: [PATCH net-next 4/5] netvsc: signal host if receive ring is emptied
Date: Tue, 25 Jul 2017 13:04:21 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170725200422.13795-5-sthemmin@microsoft.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170725200422.13795-1-sthemmin@microsoft.com>

If all packets are processed from receive ring then need
to signal host.
