From f7c405618c41f6d00fdd24311dea9ed8305bf66a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexander Duyck Date: Tue, 13 Nov 2012 04:03:15 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] ixgbe: Do not use DCA to prefetch the entire packet into the cache The way the code was previously written it was causing DCA to prefetch the entire packet into the cache when it was enabled. That is excessive as we only really need the headers. We are now prefetching the headers via software so doing this from DCA would be redundant anyway. So clear the bit that was causing us to prefetch the packet data and instead only use DCA for the descriptor rings.
