As we plan to be able to defer some specific softurq vector processing to workqueues when those vectors need more time than IRQs can offer, let's first count the time spent and the number of occurences per vector.
For now we still defer to ksoftirqd when the per vector limits are reached Suggested-by: Linus Torvalds <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <[email protected]> Cc: Dmitry Safonov <[email protected]> Cc: Eric Dumazet <[email protected]> Cc: Linus Torvalds <[email protected]> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <[email protected]> Cc: Andrew Morton <[email protected]> Cc: David Miller <[email protected]> Cc: Hannes Frederic Sowa <[email protected]> Cc: Ingo Molnar <[email protected]> Cc: Levin Alexander <[email protected]> Cc: Paolo Abeni <[email protected]> Cc: Paul E.
