From 08294a26e15d7baf1e14ee569e9f2bc82a7ae768 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jason Wang Date: Thu, 30 Jun 2016 14:45:35 +0800 Subject: net: introduce NETDEV_CHANGE_TX_QUEUE_LEN This patch introduces a new event - NETDEV_CHANGE_TX_QUEUE_LEN, this will be triggered when tx_queue_len. It could be used by net device who want to do some processing at that time. An example is tun who may want to resize tx array when tx_queue_len is changed.
