Subject: [RFC PATCH 23/27] net/intel: add special handling for single desc packets
Date: Fri, 19 Dec 2025 17:25:40 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251219172548.2660777-24-bruce.richardson@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251219172548.2660777-1-bruce.richardson@intel.com>
Within the scalar packets, add a shortcut path for packets that don't
use TSO and have only a single data descriptor.
