Useful kernel and driver performance tweaks for your Linux
NAPI (New API) - Does not use hardware interrupts, and polls the Ethernet-device every certain period of time. The Linux kernel uses the interrupt-driven mode by default and only switches to polling mode when the flow of incoming packets exceeds a certain threshold. c - Regarding NAPI implementation in Linux kernel - Stack Now for NAPI enabled Ethernet driver initially whenever packets comes at interface,it is notified to CPU and appropriate Ethernet driver code (Interrupt handler) is executed.Inside the interrupt handler code we check if type of interrupt is received packet. What it mean by disabling further interrupts? Napi Projekt Client download | SourceForge.net
