57 * Polling support for [network] device drivers.
59 * Drivers which support this feature can register with the
62 * If registration is successful, the driver must disable interrupts,
63 * and further I/O is performed through the handler, which is invoked
64 * (at least once per clock tick) with 3 arguments: the "arg" passed at
65 * register time (a struct ifnet pointer), a command, and a "count" limit.
67 * The command can be one of the following:
68 * POLL_ONLY: quick move of "count" packets from input/output queues.
69 * POLL_AND_CHECK_STATUS: as above, plus check status registers or do
70 * other more expensive operations. This command is issued periodically
71 * but less frequently than POLL_ONLY.
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 * Polling is enabled and disabled via setting IFCAP_POLLING flag on
80 * the interface. The driver ioctl handler should register interface
81 * with polling and disable interrupts, if registration was successful.
83 * A second variable controls the sharing of CPU between polling/kernel
84 * network processing, and other activities (typically userlevel tasks):
85 * kern.polling.user_frac (between 0 and 100, default 50) sets the share
86 * of CPU allocated to user tasks. CPU is allocated proportionally to the
87 * shares, by dynamically adjusting the "count" (poll_burst).
89 * Other parameters can should be left to their default values.

93 * MIN_POLL_BURST_MAX <= poll_burst_max <= MAX_POLL_BURST_MAX
