From 355b590ca24a53f5e2f6999218b5321eaf730a7e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Fri, 1 May 2015 10:37:49 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] ipv4: speedup ip_idents_reserve() Under stress, ip_idents_reserve() is accessing a contended cache line twice, with non optimal MESI transactions. If we place timestamps in separate location, we reduce this pressure by ~50% and allow atomic_add_return() to issue a Request for Ownership. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S.
