53 * Polling support for [network] device drivers.
55 * Drivers which support this feature try to register with the
58 * If registration is successful, the driver must disable interrupts,
59 * and further I/O is performed through the handler, which is invoked
60 * (at least once per clock tick) with 3 arguments: the "arg" passed at
61 * register time (a struct ifnet pointer), a command, and a "count" limit.
63 * The command can be one of the following:
64 * POLL_ONLY: quick move of "count" packets from input/output queues.
65 * POLL_AND_CHECK_STATUS: as above, plus check status registers or do
66 * other more expensive operations. This command is issued periodically
67 * but less frequently than POLL_ONLY.
68 * POLL_DEREGISTER: deregister and return to interrupt mode.
70 * The first two commands are only issued if the interface is marked as
71 * 'IFF_UP and IFF_RUNNING', the last one only if IFF_RUNNING is set.
73 * The count limit specifies how much work the handler can do during the
74 * call -- typically this is the number of packets to be received, or
75 * transmitted, etc. (drivers are free to interpret this number, as long
76 * as the max time spent in the function grows roughly linearly with the
79 * Deregistration can be requested by the driver itself (typically in the
80 * *_stop() routine), or by the polling code, by invoking the handler.
82 * Polling can be globally enabled or disabled with the sysctl variable
83 * kern.polling.enable (default is 0, disabled)
85 * A second variable controls the sharing of CPU between polling/kernel
86 * network processing, and other activities (typically userlevel tasks):
87 * kern.polling.user_frac (between 0 and 100, default 50) sets the share
88 * of CPU allocated to user tasks. CPU is allocated proportionally to the
89 * shares, by dynamically adjusting the "count" (poll_burst).
91 * Other parameters can should be left to their default values.
92 * The following constraints hold
94 * 1 <= poll_each_burst <= poll_burst <= poll_burst_max
95 * 0 <= poll_in_trap <= poll_each_burst
96 * MIN_POLL_BURST_MAX <= poll_burst_max <= MAX_POLL_BURST_MAX
