[PATCH 1/3] vhost-net: check the support of mergeable buffer outsidethe receive loop

From: Jason Wang
Date: Mon Jan 17 2011 - 03:12:07 EST


No need to check the support of mergeable buffer inside the recevie
loop as the whole handle_rx()_xx is in the read critical region. So
this patch move it ahead of the receiving loop.
