Subject: [PATCH net-next v2 1/1] net: lantiq_xrx200: use skb cache
Date: Sun, 28 Aug 2022 21:19:31 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220828191931.4923-2-olek2@wp.pl> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220828191931.4923-1-olek2@wp.pl>

napi_build_skb() reuses NAPI skbuff_head cache in order to save some
cycles on freeing/allocating skbuff_heads on every new Rx or completed
Tx.
Use napi_consume_skb() to feed the cache with skbuff_heads of completed
Tx. The budget parameter is added to indicate NAPI context, as a value
of zero can be passed in the case of netpoll.

NAT performance results on BT Home Hub 5A (kernel 5.15.45, mtu 1500):

Fast path (Software Flow Offload):
	Up	Down
Before	702.4	719.3
After	707.3	739.9

Slow path:
	Up	Down
Before	91.8	184.1
After	92.0	185.7
