I mean should we set VRING_AVAIL_F_NO_INTERRUPT when virtqueue is initialized whether there is callback or not? As it would be set in function virtqueue_disable_cb and virtqueue_enable_cb_prepare later. Regards, Haifeng

Hello all: We free old transmitted packets in ndo_start_xmit() currently, so any packet must be orphaned also there. This was used to reduce the overhead of tx interrupt to achieve better performance. But this may not work for some protocols such as TCP stream. TCP depends on the value of sk_wmem_alloc to implement various optimization for small packets stream such as TCP small queue and auto
