[PATCH 3.15 12/26] bna: fix performance regression

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri Aug 08 2014 - 17:52:08 EST


3.15-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Ivan Vecera <ivecera@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit c36c9d50cc6af5c5bfcc195f21b73f55520c15f9 ]

The recent commit "e29aa33 bna: Enable Multi Buffer RX" is causing
a performance regression. It does not properly update 'cmpl' pointer
at the end of the loop in NAPI handler bnad_cq_process(). The result is
only one packet / per NAPI-schedule is processed.
