Subject: [PATCH net-next v3 3/4] net: mvneta: avoid reading from tx_desc as much as possible
In hot code path such as mvneta_tx(), mvneta_txq_bufs_free() etc. we
access tx_desc several times. The tx_desc is allocated by
dma_alloc_coherent, it's uncacheable if the device isn't cache-coherent,
reading from uncached memory is fairly slow. So use local variable to
store what we need to avoid extra reading from uncached memory.
We get the following performance data on Marvell BG4CT Platforms
(tested with iperf):
before the patch:
sending 1GB in mvneta_tx()(disabled TSO) costs 793553760ns
after the patch:
sending 1GB in mvneta_tx()(disabled TSO) costs 719953800ns
we saved 9.2% time.
