As found in the past (commit f1dd9c37 [NET]: Fix tbench regression in 2.6.25-rc1), it is really important that struct dst_entry refcount is aligned on a cache line. We cannot use __atribute((aligned)), so manually pad the structure for 32 and 64 bit arches. for 32bit : offsetof(truct dst_entry, __refcnt) is 0x80 for 64bit : offsetof(truct dst_entry, __refcnt) is 0xc0 As it is not possible to guess at compile time cache line size, we use a generic value of 64 bytes, that satisfies many current arches. (Using 128 bytes alignment on 64bit arches would waste 64 bytes) Add a BUILD_BUG_ON to catch future updates to "struct dst_entry" dont break this alignment. "tbench 8" is 4.4 % faster on a dual quad core (HP BL460c G1), Intel E5450 @3.00GHz (2350 MB/s instead of 2250 MB/s) Signed-off-by: NEric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.
