offsetof(struct net_device, features)=0x44 offsetof(struct net_device, stats.tx_packets)=0x54 offsetof(struct net_device, stats.tx_bytes)=0x5c offsetof(struct net_device, stats.tx_dropped)=0x6c Network drivers that touch dev->stats.tx_packets/stats.tx_bytes in their tx path can slow down SMP operations, since they dirty a cache line that should stay shared (dev->features is needed in rx and tx paths) We could move away stats field in net_device but it wont help that much. (Two cache lines dirtied in tx path, we can do one only) Better solution is to add tx_packets/tx_bytes/tx_dropped in struct netdev_queue because this structure is already touched in tx path and counters updates will then be free (no increase in size) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> --- include/linux/netdevice.h | 3 +++ net/core/dev.c | 23 ++++++++++++++++++++--- 2 files changed, 23 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
