Subject: [PATCH v2 net-next 4/4] net: add dedicated kmem_cache for
typical/small skb->head
Recent removal of ksize() in alloc_skb() increased
performance because we no longer read
the associated struct page.
We have an equivalent cost at kfree_skb() time.
kfree(skb->head) has to access a struct page,
often cold in cpu caches to get the owning
struct kmem_cache.
Considering that many allocations are small (at least for TCP ones)
we can have our own kmem_cache to avoid the cache line miss.
This also saves memory because these small heads
are no longer padded to 1024 bytes.
CONFIG_SLUB=y
$ grep skbuff_small_head /proc/slabinfo
skbuff_small_head 2907 2907 640 51 8 : tunables 0 0 0 : slabdata 57 57 0
CONFIG_SLAB=y
$ grep skbuff_small_head /proc/slabinfo
skbuff_small_head 607 624 640 6 1 : tunables 54 27 8 : slabdata 104 104 5
Notes:
- After Kees Cook patches and this one, we might
be able to revert commit
dbae2b062824 ("net: skb: introduce and use a single page frag cache")
because GRO_MAX_HEAD is also small.
- This patch is a NOP for CONFIG_SLOB=y builds.
