This looks buggy assumption to me. We use epoll() with in the order of millions of fds per epoller, and typically one napi_id per cpu. With your model, we would have to use nr_cpu epollers and make sure that sockets are properly placed on those epollers by their napi_ids. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
