From 753f993911b32e479b4fab5d228dc07c11d1e7e7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jiri Pirko Date: Wed, 6 Mar 2013 01:31:13 +0000 Subject: team: introduce random mode As suggested by Eric Dumazet, allow user to select mode which chooses TX port randomly. Functionality should be more of less similar to round-robin mode with even lower overhead. Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko Signed-off-by: David S.
