Subject: [PATCH net-next v3] net: axienet: Use NAPI for TX completion path
This driver was using the TX IRQ handler to perform all TX completion
tasks. Under heavy TX network load, this can cause significant irqs-off
latencies (found to be in the hundreds of microseconds using ftrace).
This can cause other issues, such as overrunning serial UART FIFOs when
using high baud rates with limited UART FIFO sizes.
Switch to using a NAPI poll handler to perform the TX completion work
to get this out of hard IRQ context and avoid the IRQ latency impact.
A separate poll handler is used for TX and RX since they have separate
IRQs on this controller, so that the completion work for each of them
stays on the same CPU as the interrupt.
Testing on a Xilinx MPSoC ZU9EG platform using iperf3 from a Linux PC
through a switch at 1G link speed showed no significant change in TX or
RX throughput, with approximately 941 Mbps before and after. Hard IRQ
time in the TX throughput test was significantly reduced from 12% to
below 1% on the CPU handling TX interrupts, with total hard+soft IRQ CPU
usage dropping from about 56% down to 48%.
Signed-off-by: Robert Hancock <robert.hancock@...ian.com>
---
Changed since v2: Use separate TX and RX NAPI poll handlers to keep
completion handling on same CPU as TX/RX IRQ. Added hard/soft IRQ
benchmark information to commit message.
Changed since v1: Added benchmark information to commit message, no
code changes.
