From 16917b87a23b429226527f393270047069d665e9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yuval Mintz Date: Sun, 1 Jul 2012 03:18:50 +0000 Subject: net-next: Add netif_get_num_default_rss_queues Most multi-queue networking driver consider the number of online cpus when configuring RSS queues. This patch adds a wrapper to the number of cpus, setting an upper limit on the number of cpus a driver should consider (by default) when allocating resources for his queues.
