H A D | virtio_net.c | diff 363f15149cfba67d29f1e6a6103dda079f27f3fa Sun Jun 08 05:51:55 CDT 2008 Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> virtio: use callback on empty in virtio_net
virtio_net uses a timer to free old transmitted packets, rather than leaving callbacks enabled all the time. If the host promises to always notify us when the transmit ring is empty, we can free packets at that point and avoid the timer.
