# 239109 06-Aug-2012 jfv

Make the polling interface in igb able to handle
multiqueue, and correct the rxdone handling. Update

Thanks to Mark Johnston for these changes.


# 196267 15-Aug-2009 rwatson

Rather than fix questionable ifnet list locking in the implementation of
the kern.polling.enable sysctl, remove the sysctl. It has been deprecated
since FreeBSD 6 in favour of per-ifnet polling flags.

- Catch up with the fact that HZ is 1000 now by default.
- Remove description of poll in trap feature.
- Tell that polling should be turned on and off with ifconfig.
- Move description of kern.polling.enable to the end and say
that this a deprecated way of turning polling on.
- Remove note that idle poll has some problems in CURRENT. I failed
to find them, while Sam and Luigi failed to remember what the
problem actually were there.
