Subject: [PATCH net-next] mlx4: optimize xmit path

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@...gle.com>

First I implemented skb->xmit_more support, and pktgen throughput
went from ~5Mpps to ~10Mpps.

Then, looking closely at this driver I found false sharing problems that
should be addressed by this patch, as my pktgen now reaches 14.7 Mpps
on a single TX queue, with a burst factor of 8.

So this patch in a whole permits to improve raw performance on a single
TX queue from about 5 Mpps to 14.7 Mpps.

Note that if packets are below the inline_thold threshold (104 bytes),
driver copies packets content into tx descriptor, and throughput
is lowered to ~7 Mpps :
->	We might reconsider inlining strategy in a followup patch.

I could split this patch into multiple components, but I prefer not
spend days on this work.

Lets instead list all changes I did :

1) align struct mlx4_en_tx_info to a cache line

2) add frag0_dma/frag0_byte_count into mlx4_en_tx_info to avoid a cache
   line miss in TX completion for frames having one dma element.
   (We avoid reading back the tx descriptor)
   Note this could be extended to 2/3 dma elements later,
   as we have free room in mlx4_en_tx_info

3) reorganize struct mlx4_en_tx_ring to have 
   3.1 - One cache line containing last_nr_txbb & cons,
     used by tx completion.
   3.2 - One cache line containing fields dirtied by mlx4_en_xmit()  
   3.3 - Following part is read mostly and shared by cpus.

4) struct mlx4_bf @offset field reduced to unsigned int to save space
   so that the 3.2 part is only 64 bytes, or one cache line on x86.

5) doorbell_qpn is stored in the cpu_to_be32() way to avoid bswap() in
   fast path

6) mdev->mr.key stored in ring->mr_key to also avoid bswap() and access
   to cold cache line.

7) mlx4_en_free_tx_desc() no longer accesses skb_shinfo(). We use a new
   nr_frags fields in mlx4_en_tx_info to avoid 2 or 3 cache misses.

8) mlx4_en_free_tx_desc() uses a prefetchw(&skb->users) to speed up
   consume_skb()

9) mlx4_en_process_tx_cq() carefully fetches and writes
   ring->last_nr_txbb & ring->cons only one time to avoid false sharing

10) mlx4_en_xmit() reads ring->cons once, and ahead of time to avoid
    stalls.

11) prefetchw(&ring->tx_queue->dql) to speed up BQL update

12) properly clears tx_info->ts_requested :
    This field was never cleared.

13) Support skb->xmit_more to avoid the expensive doorbell

14) reorganize code to call is_inline() once, so compiler can inline it.

15) rename @i variable to @i_frag to avoid confusion, as the
    "goto tx_drop_unmap;" relied on this @i variable.
