Subject: [PATCH] iptables: lock free counters
The reader/writer lock in ip_tables is acquired in the critical path of
processing packets and is one of the reasons just loading iptables can cause
a 20% performance loss. The rwlock serves two functions:
1) it prevents changes to table state (xt_replace) while table is in use.
This is now handled by doing rcu on the xt_table. When table is
replaced, the new table(s) are put in and the old one table(s) are freed
after RCU period.
2) it provides synchronization when accesing the counter values.
This is now handled by swapping in new table_info entries for each cpu
then summing the old values, and putting the result back onto one
cpu. On a busy system it may cause sampling to occur at different
times on each cpu, but no packet/byte counts are lost in the process.
Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@...tta.com>
