NAPI
----
- NAPI (Rx polling mode) is supported in the e1000 driver. NAPI is enabled
- or disabled based on the configuration of the kernel. To override
- the default, use the following compile-time flags.
-
- To enable NAPI, compile the driver module, passing in a configuration option:
-
- make CFLAGS_EXTRA=-DE1000_NAPI install
-
- To disable NAPI, compile the driver module, passing in a configuration option:
-
- make CFLAGS_EXTRA=-DE1000_NO_NAPI install
+ NAPI (Rx polling mode) is enabled in the e1000 driver.
See www.cyberus.ca/~hadi/usenix-paper.tgz for more information on NAPI.
