TX/RX ring size is static and power of 2 to enable compiler to optimize modulo operation to mask operation. Make this optimization already in the code and don't rely on the compiler. CPU utilisation during high packet rate has not changed. So no performance improvement has been measured. But it is best practice to prevent modulo operations.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
