Hw timestamping code caused performance regression in ixgbe driver when the timestamping is not enabled. The culprit is IXGBE_READ_REG call in the Rx path which is executed for every received skb. This call is not needed when the timestamping is disabled or for non-ptp packets. netperf results: The ixgbe side of the connection was acting as a server, the netperf command line on the other side was: netperf -H 192.168.1.23 -T0,0 -t UDP_STREAM -l 20 The values below mean throughput as reported by netperf (local/remote), for 3 runs, with timestamping not enabled. 3.7.0-rc1+ with CONFIG_IXGBE_PTP off: 5373.83 / 3329.32 5721.88 / 3033.89 5653.42 / 3112.38 3.7.0-rc1+ with CONFIG_IXGBE_PTP on: 5233.64 / 1226.85 5448.67 / 1039.32 5421.36 / 1095.66 Patched 3.7.0-rc1+ with CONFIG_IXGBE_PTP on: 5594.72 / 2942.53 5428.95 / 3110.16 5343.56 / 3200.48 Reported-by: Jesper Brouer <jbrouer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jiri Benc <jbenc@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Andy Gospodarek <gospo@redhat.com> Tested-by: Phil Schmitt <phillip.j.schmitt@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com> |
