tcp_mmap is used as a reference program for TCP rx zerocopy,
so it is important to point out some potential issues.
If multiple threads are concurrently using getsockopt(...
TCP_ZEROCOPY_RECEIVE), there is a chance the low-level mm
functions compete on shared ptl lock, if vma are arbitrary placed.
Instead of letting the mm layer place the chunks back to back,
this patch enforces an alignment so that each thread uses
a different ptl lock.
Performance measured on a 100 Gbit NIC, with 8 tcp_mmap clients
launched at the same time :
$ for f in {1..8}; do ./tcp_mmap -H 2002:a05:6608:290:: & done
In the following run, we reproduce the old behavior by requesting no alignment :
$ tcp_mmap -sz -C $((128*1024)) -a 4096

New behavior (automatic alignment based on Hugepagesize),
we can see the system overhead being dramatically reduced.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
