When using a MPC8xx as a router, 'perf' shows a significant time spent in fs_enet_interrupt() and fs_enet_start_xmit(). 'perf annotate' shows that the time spent in fs_enet_start_xmit is indeed spent between spin_unlock_irqrestore() and the following instruction, hence in interrupt handling. This is due to the TX complete interrupt that fires after each transmitted packet. This patch modifies the handling of TX complete to use NAPI. With this patch, my NAT router offers a throughput improved by 21% Original performance: [root@localhost tmp]# scp toto pgs:/tmp toto 100% 256MB 2.8MB/s 01:31 Performance with the patch: [root@localhost tmp]# scp toto pgs:/tmp toto 100% 256MB 3.4MB/s 01:16 Signed-off-by: NChristophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@c-s.fr> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

RTL8168EP is Realtek PCIe Gigabit Ethernet controller with DASH support. It is a successor chip of RTL8168DP. For RTL8168EP, the read/write ocp register is via eri channel type 2, so I move ocp_xxx() related functions under rtl_eri_xxx. And use r8168dp_ocp_xxx() for RTL8168DP ocp read/write, r8168ep_ocp_xxx() for RTL8168EP ocp read/write. The way of checking dash enable is different with RTL8168DP. I use r8168dp_check_dash()for RTL8168DP and r8168ep_check_dash() for RTL8168EP, to check if dash is enabled. The driver_start() and driver_stop() of RTL8168EP is also different with RTL8168DP. I use rtl8168dp_driver_xxx() for RTL8168DP and rtl8168ep_driver_xxx for RTL8168EP. Right now, RTL8168EP phy mcu did not need firmware code patch, so I did not add firmware code for it. so I did not add firmware code for it.

Drivers should avoid NETDEV_TX_BUSY as much as possible. They should stop the tx queue before qdisc even tries to push another packet, to avoid requeues. For a driver supporting skb->xmit_more, this is likely to be a prereq anyway, otherwise we could have a tx deadlock : We need to force a doorbell if TX ring is full.

Instead of setting inline threshold using module parameter only on driver load, use set_tunable() to set it dynamically.

Remove a source of latency spikes (in my case up to 10ms) by not calling code that uses mdelay() for feeding a phy statistic (rx errors for idle symbols - not data -> idle_errors) while being called with a spinlock held. As idle_errors isn't read, this patch only removes unused code and data. Later, more complicated changes may be applied to address the spinlock and allow for some PHY diagnostics by harvesting this PHY stats register fully. This patch is designed to fix the issue and be safe for longterm/stable. For the Intel e1000e driver, the same change was applied in 2008 with commit 23033fad ("e1000e: remove phy read from inside spinlock"). The mdelay is triggered by HW/SW semaphores, thus it depends on the HW. I've HW that triggers it even when idle. Others may trigger it only e.g. when Ethernet ports aquire or loose the link or on ifconfig up / down. We've noticed this first from delays in frame rx/tx due to the mdelay(). Example command for checking if the issue is triggered: cyclictest -Smp1 (Look for occasional "Max:" values > 4000 or use -b 4000 to stop if greater) It was observed with I350 ports connected to other I350 ports, but not if driver and EEPROM was modified to run the I350 in EEPROM-less mode. phy_stats.idle_errors and .receive_errors (isn't touched) occupy 64 not used bits in the adapter struct: Their allocation may be removed as well.
