Subject: [PATCH] scsi/fcoe: remove fcoe_select_cpu()
Date: Thu, 5 Jun 2025 08:20:14 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250605062014.105302-1-hare@kernel.org> (raw)
The function fcoe_select_cpu() is just used to distribute incoming
skbs which start a new FC command sequence. But the network stack
already received (and processed) that skb, and there is a _really_
good chance that all subsequent skbs for this sequence will be
handled with the same CPU. So we should just use the cpu on which
this skb was allocated on and save ourselves some overhead due
to pointless scheduling.
