Subject: [PATCH 2/2] vlan: use struct netdev_queue counters instead of dev->stats
Date: Mon, 18 May 2009 12:35:38 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4A1139FA.2030703@cosmosbay.com> (raw)

We can update netdev_queue tx_bytes/tx_packets/tx_dropped counters instead
of dev->stats ones, to reduce number of cache lines dirtied in xmit path.

This fixes a performance problem on SMP when many different cpus take
vlan tx path.
