From 581073f626e387d3e7eed55c48c8495584ead7ba Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Wed, 15 May 2024 16:33:58 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] af_packet: do not call packet_read_pending() from tpacket_destruct_skb() trafgen performance considerably sank on hosts with many cores after the blamed commit. packet_read_pending() is very expensive, and calling it in af_packet fast path defeats Daniel intent in commit b013840810c2 ("packet: use percpu mmap tx frame pending refcount") tpacket_destruct_skb() makes room for one packet, we can immediately wakeup a producer, no need to completely drain the tx ring.
