This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled drivers: net: ethernet: davinci_emac: use netif_wake_queue() to the linux-3.5.y-queue branch of the 3.5.y.z extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.5.y-queue If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.5.y.z tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Luis ------ From 99545f2376d20a2bd4a5cf1160e470707d2e298d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mugunthan V N <mugunthanvnm@ti.com> Date: Wed, 27 Mar 2013 04:42:00 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] drivers: net: ethernet: davinci_emac: use netif_wake_queue() while restarting tx queue commit 7e51cde276ca820d526c6c21cf8147df595a36bf upstream. To restart tx queue use netif_wake_queue() intead of netif_start_queue() so that net schedule will restart transmission immediately which will increase network performance while doing huge data transfers.
