Is anyone actively working on making the polling(8) to the wi(4) driver ? As in www.wirelessleiden.nl we're seeing very significant (>80%) INTR time spend when doing simple bridging from one wi(4) card to another on the lower end motherboards (P1, slow P2's). And we have similarly seen that using DEVICE_POLLING on the sis(4) cards in the same device would instantly drop sis0<->sis1 INTR time resources to acceptible levels (and increase performance by almost a 2 fold). Or are there any fundamental issues with making wi(4) polling(4) aware ? I.e. some specific firmware issues, etc ? Thanks ! Dw
