Subject: [PATCH net-next V1 09/13] net/mlx5e: Change RX moderation period to be based on CQE
From: Tariq Toukan <tariqt@...lanox.com>
In this mode the moderation timer will restart upon completion
generation rather than upon interrupt generation.
The outcome is that for bursty traffic the period timer will never
expire and thus only the moderation frames counter will dictate
interrupt generation, thus the interrupt rate will be relative
to the incoming packets size.
If the burst seizes for "moderation period" time then an interrupt
will be issued immediately.
Performance tested on ConnectX4-Lx 50G.
Less packet loss in netperf and pktgen tests, with no bw degradation.
For example:
pktgen single flow, 16 sender threads, 8K (64B) packets bursts each:
we see improvment from 30% packet loss to 17%.
