net: generalize skb freeing deferral to per-cpu lists
Logic added in commit f35f821935 ("tcp: defer skb freeing after socket
lock is released") helped bulk TCP flows to move the cost of skbs
frees outside of critical section where socket lock was held.
But for RPC traffic, or hosts with RFS enabled, the solution is far from
being ideal.
For RPC traffic, recvmsg() has to return to user space right after
skb payload has been consumed, meaning that BH handler has no chance
to pick the skb before recvmsg() thread. This issue is more visible
with BIG TCP, as more RPC fit one skb.
For RFS, even if BH handler picks the skbs, they are still picked
from the cpu on which user thread is running.
Ideally, it is better to free the skbs (and associated page frags)
on the cpu that originally allocated them.
This patch removes the per socket anchor (sk->defer_list) and
instead uses a per-cpu list, which will hold more skbs per round.
This new per-cpu list is drained at the end of net_action_rx(),
after incoming packets have been processed, to lower latencies.
In normal conditions, skbs are added to the per-cpu list with
no further action. In the (unlikely) cases where the cpu does not
run net_action_rx() handler fast enough, we use an IPI to raise
NET_RX_SOFTIRQ on the remote cpu.
Also, we do not bother draining the per-cpu list from dev_cpu_dead()
This is because skbs in this list have no requirement on how fast
they should be freed.
Note that we can add in the future a small per-cpu cache
if we see any contention on sd->defer_lock.
Tested on a pair of hosts with 100Gbit NIC, RFS enabled,
and /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_rmem[2] tuned to 16MB to work around
page recycling strategy used by NIC driver (its page pool capacity
being too small compared to number of skbs/pages held in sockets
receive queues)
Note that this tuning was only done to demonstrate worse
conditions for skb freeing for this particular test.
These conditions can happen in more general production workload.
