    ixgbe: Reorder the ring to q_vector mapping to improve performance · d0bfcdfd
    Alexander Duyck 提交于
    This change reorders the mapping of rings to q_vectors in the case that the
    number of rings exceeds the number of q_vectors.  Previously we would
    allocate the first R/N queues to the first q_vector where R is the number
    of rings and N is the number of q_vectors.  Instead of doing this we can do
    a better job of interleaving the rings to the CPUs by assigning every Nth
    ring to the q_vector.
    
    The below tables illustrate this change for the R = 16 N = 4 case.
              Before patch  After patch
    q_vector:  0  1  2  3    0  1  2  3
    Rings:     0  4  8 12    0  1  2  3
               1  5  9 13    4  5  6  7
               3  6 10 14    8  9 10 11
               4  7 11 15   12 13 14 15
    
    This should improve the performance for both DCB or ATR when the number of
    rings exceeds the number of q_vectors allocated by the adapter.
