From: Eli Cohen <redacted> Use cond_resched() instead of usleep_range() to decrease the time between polling attempts thus reducing overall driver load time. Below is a comparison before and after the change, of loading eight virtual functions. Before: real 0m8.785s user 0m0.093s sys 0m0.090s After: real 0m5.730s user 0m0.097s sys 0m0.087s Signed-off-by: Eli Cohen <redacted> Reviewed-by: Or Gerlitz <redacted> Signed-off-by: Saeed Mahameed <redacted> --- drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/cmd.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-)
