Two comments:
1) we have a vague definition of "RX work processed." Due to error
conditions and goto's in that function, rx_processed_cnt may or may
not equal the number of packets actually processed.
2) man I dislike these inline C statement combinations (ranting at
original code style, not you). I would much rather waste a few extra
lines of source code and make the conditions obvious:
while (... && (rx_processed_cnt < limit)) {
rx_processed_cnt++;
...
}
or even
while (1) {
...
if (rx_processed_cnt == limit)
break;
rx_processed_cnt++;
}
The compiler certainly doesn't care, and IMO it prevents bugs.
agreed. Do you have an uptodate patch/git-URI for the forcedeth rewrite
you did? I can throw it into the testbed.
Branch 'fe-lock' of
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jgarzik/netdev-2.6.git
It works here locally, but at this very minute I am rewriting those
changesets yet again :)
