Several small performance improvements in RX datapath,
including:
- Compiler branch predictor hints.
- Replace a multiplication with a shift operation.
- Minimize variables scope.
- Write-prefetch for packet header.
- Avoid trinary-operator ("?") when value can be preset in a matching
branch.
- Save a branch by updating RX ring doorbell within
mlx4_en_refill_rx_buffers(), which now returns void.
Performance tests:
Tested on ConnectX3Pro, Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2680 v3 @ 2.50GHz
Single queue no-RSS optimization ON
(enable by ethtool -L <interface> rx 1).
XDP_DROP packet rate:
Same (28.1 Mpps), lower CPU utilization (from ~100% to ~92%).
Drop packets in TC:
-------------------------------------
| Before | After | Gain |
IPv4 | 4.14 Mpps | 4.18 Mpps | 1% |
-------------------------------------
XDP_TX packet rate:
-------------------------------------
| Before | After | Gain |
IPv4 | 10.1 Mpps | 10.3 Mpps | 2% |
IPv6 | 10.1 Mpps | 10.3 Mpps | 2% |
