From c18d4b190a46651726c9a952667c74d2deb33c28 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Samiullah Khawaja Date: Tue, 28 Oct 2025 20:30:05 +0000 Subject: net: Extend NAPI threaded polling to allow kthread based busy polling Add a new state NAPI_STATE_THREADED_BUSY_POLL to the NAPI state enum to enable and disable threaded busy polling. When threaded busy polling is enabled for a NAPI, enable NAPI_STATE_THREADED also. When the threaded NAPI is scheduled, set NAPI_STATE_IN_BUSY_POLL to signal napi_complete_done not to rearm interrupts. Whenever NAPI_STATE_THREADED_BUSY_POLL is unset, the NAPI_STATE_IN_BUSY_POLL will be unset, napi_complete_done unsets the NAPI_STATE_SCHED_THREADED bit also, which in turn will make the kthread go to sleep.
