From d93607082e982223cf92750f2d9039ff365b9d24 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Heiner Kallweit Date: Wed, 30 Nov 2022 23:28:26 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] net: add netdev_sw_irq_coalesce_default_on() Add a helper for drivers wanting to set SW IRQ coalescing by default. The related sysfs attributes can be used to override the default values. Follow Jakub's suggestion and put this functionality into net core so that drivers wanting to use software interrupt coalescing per default don't have to open-code it. Note that this function needs to be called before the netdevice is registered. Suggested-by: Jakub Kicinski Signed-off-by: Heiner Kallweit Signed-off-by: David S.
