[S390] qdio: speed up multicast traffic on full HiperSocket queue (4bcb3a37) · Commits · 戴 / test

If an asynchronous HiperSockets queue runs full, no further packet can be sent. In this case the next initiative to give transmitted skbs back to the stack is triggered only by a 10-seconds qdio timer. This timer has been introduced for low multicast traffic scenarios to guarantee freeing of skbs in a limited amount of time. For high HiperSocket multicast traffic scenarios progress checking on the outbound queue should be enforced by tasklet rescheduling. Signed-off-by:
