It mitigates the situation where the default value (32) that is too small leads to higher frequency of triggering send syscall. Considering the prosperity/complexity the applications have, there is no absolutely ideal suggestion fitting all cases. So keep 32 as its default value like before. The patch does the following things: - Add XDP_MAX_TX_BUDGET socket option. - Convert TX_BATCH_SIZE tx_budget_spent. - Set tx_budget_spent to 32 by default in the initialization phase as a per-socket granular control. The idea behind this comes out of real workloads in production. We use a user-level stack with xsk support to accelerate sending packets and minimize triggering syscalls. When the packets are aggregated, it's not hard to hit the upper bound (namely, 32). The moment user-space stack fetches the -EAGAIN error number passed from sendto(), it will loop to try again until all the expected descs from tx ring are sent out to the driver. Enlarging the XDP_MAX_TX_BUDGET value contributes to less frequency of sendto() and higher throughput/PPS. Here is what I did in production, along with some numbers as follows: For one application I saw lately, I suggested using 128 as max_tx_budget because I saw two limitations without changing any default configuration: 1) XDP_MAX_TX_BUDGET, 2) socket sndbuf which is 212992 decided by net.core.wmem_default. As to XDP_MAX_TX_BUDGET, the scenario behind this was I counted how many descs are transmitted to the driver at one time of sendto() based on [1] patch and then I calculated the possibility of hitting the upper bound. Finally I chose 128 as a suitable value because 1) it covers most of the cases, 2) a higher number would not bring evident results. After twisting the parameters, a stable improvement of around 4% for both PPS and throughput and less resources consumption were found to be observed by strace -c -p xxx: 1) %time was decreased by 7.8% 2) error counter was decreased from 18367 to 572 [1]: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250619093641.70700-1-kerneljasonxing@gmail.com/ Signed-off-by: Jason Xing --- v5 Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250623021345.69211-1-kerneljasonxing@gmail.com/ 1. remove changes around zc mode v4 Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250619090440.65509-1-kerneljasonxing@gmail.com/ 1. remove getsockopt as it seems no real use case. 2. adjust the position of max_tx_budget to make sure it stays with other read-most fields in one cacheline. 3. set one as the lower bound of max_tx_budget 4. add more descriptions/performance data in Doucmentation and commit message.
