3. Optimisations - concatenating TX descriptors' flush, basing on xmit_more support and combined approach for finalizing egress processing. Thanks to HR timer buffers can be released with small latency, which is good for low transfer and small queues. Along with the timer, coalescing irqs are used, whose threshold could be increased back to 15.If you are already reworking the TX path, it probably makes sense to support BQL as well, see the Marvell skge and sky2 drivers for examples using netdev_{tx_,}{sent,completed}_queue.
Good idea, I'll take a look. Best regards, Marcin
