Then I am not in a position to make relevant performance tests for that
scenario.
I have been testing with the following setup: an NXP LS1028A switch
(ocelot/felix driver) using IPv4 forwarding of 64 byte UDP datagrams
sent by a data generator. 2 ports at 1Gbps each, 100% port load. IP
forwarding takes place between 1 port and the other.
Generator port A sends from 192.168.100.1 to 192.168.200.1
Generator port B sends from 192.168.200.1 to 192.168.100.1
Flow control is enabled on all switch ports, the user ports and the CPU port
(I don't really have a setup that I can test in any meaningful way
without flow control).
The script I run on the board to set things up for IP forwarding is:
ip link set eno2 down && echo ocelot-8021q > /sys/class/net/eno2/dsa/tagging
ip link set swp0 address a0:00:00:00:00:02
ip link set swp1 address a0:00:00:00:00:04
for eth in swp0 swp1; do
ip link set ${eth} up
done
ip addr add 192.168.100.2/24 dev swp0
ip addr add 192.168.200.2/24 dev swp1
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
arp -s 192.168.100.1 00:01:02:03:04:05 dev swp0
arp -s 192.168.200.1 00:01:02:03:04:06 dev swp1
ethtool --config-nfc eno2 flow-type ip4 dst-ip 192.168.200.1 action 0
ethtool --config-nfc eno2 flow-type ip4 dst-ip 192.168.100.1 action 1
ethtool -K eno2 gro on rx-gro-list on
ethtool -K swp0 gro on rx-gro-list on
ethtool -K swp1 gro on rx-gro-list on

So the performance seems to be slightly worse with the patch, for
reasons that are not immediately apparent from perf, as far as I can
tell. If I just look at dsa_switch_rcv, I see there is a decrease in CPU
cycles from 1.01% to 0.83%, but that doesn't reflect in the throughput I
see for some reason.
(also please ignore some oddities in the perf reports like
"enetc_pci_remove", this comes from enetc_lock_mdio/enetc_unlock_mdio, I
have no idea why it gets printed like that)
So yeah, I cannot actually change my setup such that the list iteration
is more expensive than this (swp0 is the first element, swp1 is the second).
