Subject: [PATCH net v6 0/4] tg3: tx_pending fixes
Extra info regarding patch 4:
This version of the series calls gso_segment() without NETIF_F_SG. This avoids
the need for desc_cnt_est in tg3_tso_bug() as in previous versions of this
patch series. Since Michael had previously raised concerns about gso_segment
without SG, I ran some netperf throughput tests. I used a small patch to force
tg3_tso_bug() to be called even when it is not needed [1].
root@...ux-y64m:~# perf stat -r10 -ad netperf -H 192.168.9.30 -l60 -T 0,0 -t omni -- -d send
* original tg3_tso_bug() (ie. without patch 4/4)
781±2 10^6bits/s
6.60 cycle/bit
* gso_segment() without SG (current series)
801.0±0.9 10^6bits/s
5.79 cycle/bit
* gso_segment() with SG (alternate patch 4/4 [2])
783±2 10^6bits/s
7.25 cycle/bit
(For reference, with the original tg3_tso_bug() implementation but without
forcing it to be called, the throughput I get is 822±1 10^6bits/s @ 3.82
cycle/bit with 0 invocations of tg3_tso_bug)

[2] alternate patch 4
call gso_segment with SG (without removing it, actually)
