virtio-net: page_to_skb() use build_skb when there's sufficient tailroom
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
In page_to_skb(), if we have enough tailroom to save skb_shared_info, we
can use build_skb to create skb directly. No need to alloc for
additional space. And it can save a 'frags slot', which is very friendly
to GRO.

Here, if the payload of the received package is too small (less than
GOOD_COPY_LEN), we still choose to copy it directly to the space got by
napi_alloc_skb. So we can reuse these pages.

Testing Machine:
    The four queues of the network card are bound to the cpu1.

Test command:
    for ((i=0;i<5;++i)); do sockperf tp --ip 192.168.122.64 -m 1000 -t 150& done

The size of the udp package is 1000, so in the case of this patch, there
will always be enough tailroom to use build_skb. The sent udp packet
will be discarded because there is no port to receive it. The irqsoftd
of the machine is 100%, we observe the received quantity displayed by
sar -n DEV 1:

no build_skb:  956864.00 rxpck/s
build_skb:    1158465.00 rxpck/s
