    SUNRPC: switchable buffer allocation · 02107148
    Chuck Lever 提交于
     Add RPC client transport switch support for replacing buffer management
     on a per-transport basis.
    
     In the current IPv4 socket transport implementation, RPC buffers are
     allocated as needed for each RPC message that is sent.  Some transport
     implementations may choose to use pre-allocated buffers for encoding,
     sending, receiving, and unmarshalling RPC messages, however.  For
     transports capable of direct data placement, the buffers can be carved
     out of a pre-registered area of memory rather than from a slab cache.
    
     Test-plan:
     Millions of fsx operations.  Performance characterization with "sio" and
     "iozone".  Use oprofile and other tools to look for significant regression
     in CPU utilization.
