Subject: [PATCH v2 net-next 2/2] net: mvneta: add BQL support
Date: Mon, 16 Jan 2017 18:08:32 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1484586512-16412-3-git-send-email-mw@semihalf.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1484586512-16412-1-git-send-email-mw@semihalf.com>
Tests showed that when whole bandwidth is consumed, the latency for
various kind of traffic can reach high values. With saturated
link (e.g. with iperf from target to host) simple ping could take
significant amount of time. BQL proved to improve this situation
when implemented in mvneta driver. Measurements of ping latency
for 3 link speeds:
Speed | Latency w/o BQL | Latency with BQL
10 | 7-14 ms | 3.5 ms
100 | 2-12 ms | 0.6 ms
1000 | often timeout | up to 2ms
Decreasing latency as above result in sligt performance cost - 4kpps
(-1.4%) when pushing 64B packets via two bridged interfaces of Armada 38x.
For 1500B packets in the same setup, the mpstat tool showed +8% of
CPU occupation (default affinity, second CPU idle). Even though this
cost seems reasonable to take, considering other improvements.
This commit adds byte queue limit mechanism for the mvneta driver.
