[ovs-dev] [PATCH v3 03/18] dpif-netdev: Don't try to output on a device without txqs.

Daniele Di Proietto diproiettod at vmware.com
Mon Jan 9 03:15:01 UTC 2017


Tunnel devices have 0 txqs and don't support netdev_send().  While
netdev_send() simply returns EOPNOTSUPP, the XPS logic is still executed
on output, and that might be confused by devices with no txqs.

It seems better to have different structures in the fast path for ports
that support netdev_{push,pop}_header (tunnel devices), and ports that
support netdev_send.  With this we can also remove a branch in
netdev_send().

This is also necessary for a future commit, which starts DPDK devices
without txqs.
