From 702821f4ea6f68db18aa1de7d8ed62c6ba586a64 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Wed, 28 Aug 2013 18:10:43 -0700 Subject: net: revert 8728c544a9c ("net: dev_pick_tx() fix") commit 8728c544a9cbdc ("net: dev_pick_tx() fix") and commit b6fe83e9525a ("bonding: refine IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE capability") are quite incompatible : Queue selection is disabled because skb dst was dropped before entering bonding device. This causes major performance regression, mainly because TCP packets for a given flow can be sent to multiple queues. This is particularly visible when using the new FQ packet scheduler with MQ + FQ setup on the slaves. We can safely revert the first commit now that 416186fbf8c5b ("net: Split core bits of netdev_pick_tx into __netdev_pick_tx") properly caps the queue_index.
