Older non-enetsw SoCs still benefit mainly from rx batching. Performance improvement of ~30% is observed on BCM6333. The BCM63xx SoCs are designed for routers. As such, having BQL is beneficial as well as trivial to add. v3: * Simplify xmit_more patch by not moving around the code needlessly. * Fix indentation in xmit_more patch. * Fix indentation in build_skb patch. * Split rx ring cleanup patch from build_skb patch and precede build_skb patch for better understanding, as suggested by Florian Fainelli. v2: * Add xmit_more support and rx loop improvisation patches. * Moved BQL netdev_reset_queue() to bcm_enet_stop()/bcm_enetsw_stop() functions as suggested by Florian Fainelli. * Improved commit messages. ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210106144208.1935-1-liew.s.piaw@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski --- c61ce06f3eae8ed670437db9445b27f2360df4cb
