Subject: [PATCH 14/21] net/ena/base: remove redundant zeroing of Tx desc
Date: Wed, 15 Oct 2025 10:14:50 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251015071450.943-1-shaibran@amazon.com> (raw)
For LLQ, tx descriptors are stored in the bounce buffer,
which is already being zeroed out upon every call to
ena_com_get_next_bounce_buffer.
This patch utilizes the existing zero-out operation of the
bounce buffer, eliminating redundant zeroing of tx
descriptors in LLQ case.
