From: Jeremy Fitzhardinge Subject: [GIT PULL] xen-netfront driver updates for 2.6.36 Date: Tue, 03 Aug 2010 11:39:45 -0700 Message-ID: <4C586271.3010902@goop.org> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Return-path: Sender: netdev-owner@vger.kernel.org To: David Miller Cc: Linux Kernel Mailing List , NetDev , "Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com" , "Xu, Dongxiao" List-Id: xen-devel@lists.xenproject.org Hi Dave, OK, let's try that again. Here's a git branch with some updates to the Xen netfront driver, which add a new "smartpoll" mode to the netfront backend protocol, which is basically equivalent to interrupt mitigation. This merges cleanly with current linux-next (it previously just had a small constification conflict). Do you want to take this via the net tree, or are you OK with me submitting them directly? Thanks, J The following changes since commit 9fe6206f400646a2322096b56c59891d530e8d51: Linux 2.6.35 (2010-08-01 15:11:14 -0700) are available in the git repository at: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jeremy/xen.git upstream/netfront Dongxiao Xu (1): xen/netfront: Use smart polling instead of event notification.
