While grouping matching bits in groups of four saves memory compared
to the more natural choice of 8-bit words (lookup table size is one
eighth), it comes at a performance cost, as the number of lookup
comparisons is doubled, and those also needs bitshifts and masking.
Introduce support for 8-bit lookup groups, together with a mapping
mechanism to dynamically switch, based on defined per-table size
thresholds and hysteresis, between 8-bit and 4-bit groups, as tables
grow and shrink. Empty sets start with 8-bit groups, and per-field
tables are converted to 4-bit groups if they get too big.
An alternative approach would have been to swap per-set lookup
operation functions as needed, but this doesn't allow for different
group sizes in the same set, which looks desirable if some fields
need significantly more matching data compared to others due to
heavier impact of ranges (e.g. a big number of subnets with
relatively simple port specifications).
Allowing different group sizes for the same lookup functions implies
the need for further conditional clauses, whose cost, however,
appears to be negligible in tests.
The matching rate figures below were obtained for x86_64 running
the nft_concat_range.sh "performance" cases, averaged over five
runs, on a single thread of an AMD Epyc 7402 CPU, and for aarch64
on a single thread of a BCM2711 (Raspberry Pi 4 Model B 4GB),
clocked at a stable 2147MHz frequency:
