Subject: [PATCH] e1000: Make the copybreak value a module parameter
X-Git-Tag: v3.12-rc1~32135^2~27
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1f753861d272e648f3234e4f5fdea9434ae7bee4;p=kernel%2Fkernel-generic.git

[PATCH] e1000: Make the copybreak value a module parameter

Allow the user to vary the size that copybreak works. Currently cb is enabled
for packets < 256 bytes, but various tests indicate that this should be
configurable for specific use cases. In addition, this parameter allows us
to force never/always during testing to get full and predictable coverage of
both code paths.
