udp: enable busy polling for all sockets
UDP busy polling is restricted to connected UDP sockets. This is because sk_busy_loop() only takes care of one NAPI context. There are cases where it could be extended. 1) Some hosts receive traffic on a single NIC, with one RX queue. 2) Some applications use SO_REUSEPORT and associated BPF filter to split the incoming traffic on one UDP socket per RX queue/thread/cpu 3) Some UDP sockets are used to send/receive traffic for one flow, but they do not bother with connect() This patch records the napi_id of first received skb, giving more reach to busy polling. Tested: lpaa23:~# echo 70 >/proc/sys/net/core/busy_read lpaa24:~# echo 70 >/proc/sys/net/core/busy_read lpaa23:~# for f in `seq 1 10`; do ./super_netperf 1 -H lpaa24 -t UDP_RR -l 5; done Before patch : 27867 28870 37324 41060 41215 36764 36838 44455 41282 43843 After patch : 73920 73213 70147 74845 71697 68315 68028 75219 70082 73707 Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
