net: percpu net_device refcount
We tried very hard to remove all possible dev_hold()/dev_put() pairs in network stack, using RCU conversions. There is still an unavoidable device refcount change for every dst we create/destroy, and this can slow down some workloads (routers or some app servers, mmap af_packet) We can switch to a percpu refcount implementation, now dynamic per_cpu infrastructure is mature. On a 64 cpus machine, this consumes 256 bytes per device. On x86, dev_hold(dev) code : before lock incl 0x280(%ebx) after: movl 0x260(%ebx),%eax incl fs:(%eax) Stress bench : (Sending 160.000.000 UDP frames, IP route cache disabled, dual E5540 @2.53GHz, 32bit kernel, FIB_TRIE) Before: real 1m1.662s user 0m14.373s sys 12m55.960s After: real 0m51.179s user 0m15.329s sys 10m15.942s Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
