process_backlog() -- 处理从网卡上读取的sk_buff队列

net_rx_action()  --> process_backlog()

 

前面已经说过，软中断处理函数net_rx_action调用设备的poll方法（默认为process_backlog），而process_backlog函数将进一步调用netif_receive_skb()将数据包传上协议栈，如果设备自身注册了poll函数，也将调用netif_receive_skb()函数

    unsigned long start_time = jiffies;
    backlog_dev->weight = weight_p;

        struct sk_buff *skb;
