    crypto: caam/qi2 - Increase napi budget to process more caam responses · 6ed01097
    Vakul Garg authored
    While running ipsec processing for traffic through multiple network
    interfaces, it is observed that caam driver gets less time to poll
    responses from caam block compared to ethernet driver. This is because
    ethernet driver has as many napi instances per cpu as the number of
    ethernet interfaces in system. Therefore, caam driver's napi executes
    lesser than the ethernet driver's napi instances. This results in
    situation that we end up submitting more requests to caam (which it is
    able to finish off quite fast), but don't dequeue the responses at same
    rate. This makes caam response FQs bloat with large number of frames. In
    some situations, it makes kernel crash due to out-of-memory. To prevent
    it We increase the napi budget of dpseci driver to a big value so that
    caam driver is able to drain its response queues at enough rate.
