Subject: [PATCH net-next 3/3] net_sched: sch_fq: enable use of hrtimer slack
Date: Mon, 16 Mar 2020 16:02:23 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200316230223.242532-4-edumazet@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200316230223.242532-1-edumazet@google.com>
Add a new attribute to control the fq qdisc hrtimer slack.
Default is set to 10 usec.
When/if packets are throttled, fq set up an hrtimer that can
lead to one interrupt per packet in the throttled queue.
By using a timer slack, we allow better use of timer interrupts,
by giving them a chance to call multiple timer callbacks
at each hardware interrupt.
Also, giving a slack allows FQ to dequeue batches of packets
instead of a single one, thus increasing xmit_more efficiency.
This has no negative effect on the rate a TCP flow can sustain,
since each TCP flow maintains its own precise vtime (tp->tcp_wstamp_ns)
Tested:
1000 concurrent flows all using paced packets.
1,000,000 packets sent per second.
Before the patch :

After the patch, slack of 10 usec, we can see a reduction of interrupts
per second, and a small decrease of reported cpu usage.
