From 087c1a601ad7f851a2d31f5fa0e5e9dfc766df55 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexei Starovoitov Date: Thu, 30 Apr 2015 20:14:07 -0700 Subject: net: sched: run ingress qdisc without locks TC classifiers/actions were converted to RCU by John in the series: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/329739/focus=329739 and many follow on patches. This is the last patch from that series that finally drops ingress spin_lock. Single cpu ingress+u32 performance goes from 22.9 Mpps to 24.5 Mpps. In two cpu case when both cores are receiving traffic on the same device and go into the same ingress+u32 the performance jumps from 4.5 + 4.5 Mpps to 23.5 + 23.5 Mpps Signed-off-by: John Fastabend Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov Signed-off-by: Jamal Hadi Salim Acked-by: Daniel Borkmann Signed-off-by: David S.
