Subject: [PATCH 29/29] ioat2, 3: cacheline align software descriptor allocations
Date: Thu, 03 Sep 2009 19:32:57 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090904023257.32667.53926.stgit@dwillia2-linux.ch.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20090904022733.32667.77626.stgit@dwillia2-linux.ch.intel.com>

All the necessary fields for handling an ioat2,3 ring entry can fit into
one cacheline.  Move ->len prior to ->txd in struct ioat_ring_ent, and
move allocation of these entries to a hw-cache-aligned kmem cache to
reduce the number of cachelines dirtied for descriptor management.
