A -queue the size of the default socket send buffer (wmem_default) is -maintained between the PPP generic core and the ATM device. - -Fix it to queue a maximum of *two* packets. The one the ATM device is -currently working on, and one more for the ATM driver to process -immediately in its TX done interrupt handler. The PPP core is designed -to feed packets to the channel with minimal latency, so that really -ought to be enough to keep the ATM device busy. - -While we're at it, fix the fact that we were triggering the wakeup -tasklet on *every* pppoatm_pop() call. The comment saying "this is -inefficient, but doing it right is too hard" turns out to be overly -pessimistic... I think :) - -On machines like the Traverse Geos, with a slow Geode CPU and two -high-speed ADSL2+ interfaces, there were reports of extremely high CPU -usage which could partly be attributed to the extra wakeups. - -(The wakeup handling could actually be made a whole lot easier if we - stop checking sk->sk_sndbuf altogether. Given that we now only queue - *two* packets ever, one wonders what the point is. As it is, you could - already deadlock the thing by setting the sk_sndbuf to a value lower - than the MTU of the device, and it'd just block for ever.) - -Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com> -Signed-off-by: David S.
