This can have negative effect on transmission to other clients which may still have room in their corresponding rings. Implement new policy in which stop/wake net queue are not used. In case there is no room in the ring for a transmitted packet, drop the packet. New policy can be helpful to debug performance issues, to guarantee maximum utilization of net queues. New policy is disabled by default and can be enabled by debugfs: echo 1 > drop_if_ring_full Signed-off-by: Dedy Lansky Signed-off-by: Maya Erez --- drivers/net/wireless/ath/wil6210/debugfs.c | 3 ++- drivers/net/wireless/ath/wil6210/txrx.c | 9 +++++++++ drivers/net/wireless/ath/wil6210/wil6210.h | 3 ++- 3 files changed, 13 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/net/wireless/ath/wil6210/debugfs.c b/drivers/net/wireless/ath/wil6210/debugfs.c index 835c902..acbf2f0 100644 --- a/drivers/net/wireless/ath/wil6210/debugfs.c +++ b/drivers/net/wireless/ath/wil6210/debugfs.c @@ -1,6 +1,6 @@ /* * Copyright (c) 2012-2017 Qualcomm Atheros, Inc. - * Copyright (c) 2018, The Linux Foundation.
