Hi Dave,
This patchset contains performance improvements
to the XDP_TX use case in the mlx4 Eth driver.
Patch 1 is a simple change in a function parameter type.
Patch 2 replaces a call to a generic function with the
relevant parts inlined.
Patch 3 moves the write of descriptors' constant values
from data path to control path.
Series generated against net-next commit:
833e0e2f24fd net: dst: move cpu inside ifdef to avoid compilation warning
Thanks,
Tariq.
