Description:
- [RW] If polling is enabled, this controls what kind of polling
- will be performed. It defaults to -1, which is classic polling.
+ [RW] This was used to control what kind of polling will be
+ performed. It is now fixed to -1, which is classic polling.
In this mode, the CPU will repeatedly ask for completions
- without giving up any time. If set to 0, a hybrid polling mode
- is used, where the kernel will attempt to make an educated guess
- at when the IO will complete. Based on this guess, the kernel
- will put the process issuing IO to sleep for an amount of time,
- before entering a classic poll loop. This mode might be a little
- slower than pure classic polling, but it will be more efficient.
- If set to a value larger than 0, the kernel will put the process
- issuing IO to sleep for this amount of microseconds before
- entering classic polling.
