Subject: [PATCH v2 next 5/7] net/vmxnet3: limit number of TXDs used for TSO packet
Date: Wed, 26 Apr 2023 12:04:12 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230426190415.28239-6-doshir@vmware.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230426190415.28239-1-doshir@vmware.com>

Currently, vmxnet3 does not have a limit on number of descriptors
used for a TSO packet. However, with UPT, for hardware performance
reasons, this patch limits the number of transmit descriptors to 24
for a TSO packet.
