[PATCH net-next 6/6] hv_netvsc: empty current transmit aggregation if flow blocked

Stephen Hemminger stephen at networkplumber.org
Wed Dec 13 00:48:40 UTC 2017


If the transmit queue is known full, then don't keep aggregating
data. And the cp_partial flag which indicates that the current
aggregation buffer is full can be folded in to avoid more
conditionals.
