I noticed in oprofile study a cache miss in tcp_rcv_established() to read copied_seq. ffffffff80400a80 <tcp_rcv_established>: /* tcp_rcv_established total: 4034293 2.0400 */ 55493 0.0281 :ffffffff80400bc9: mov 0x4c8(%r12),%eax copied_seq 543103 0.2746 :ffffffff80400bd1: cmp 0x3e0(%r12),%eax rcv_nxt if (tp->copied_seq == tp->rcv_nxt && len - tcp_header_len <= tp->ucopy.len) { In this function, the cache line 0x4c0 -> 0x500 is used only for this reading 'copied_seq' field. rcv_wup and copied_seq should be next to rcv_nxt field, to lower number of active cache lines in hot paths. (tcp_rcv_established(), tcp_poll(), ...) As you suggested, I changed tcp_create_openreq_child() so that these fields are changed together, to avoid adding a new store buffer stall. Patch is 64bit friendly (no new hole because of alignment constraints) Signed-off-by: NEric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
