------------------------------------------
Summary: Controller needs to handle the number of completed
packets more intelligently
Key: MYNEWT-382
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYNEWT-382
Project: Mynewt
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: William San Filippo
Assignee: William San Filippo
This is more of an issue with a controller only implementation but does also
apply to the combined host/controller as well. The current controller stack
implements a simple timer (configurable) to tell it when to send the number of
completed packets event to the host. Hosts use this event to determine when
they are allowed to send the controller more packets. If these events are not
coming back quickly enough throughput can be (greatly) impacted.
We need to change how the controller sends back the number of completed packets
event to the host so that throughput can be managed more effectively. There
are some fairly simple ways to do this that would greatly improve the current
method.
