Florian reported a regression and sent a patch with the following changelog: <quote> There is a noticeable tcp performance regression (loopback or cross-netns), seen with iperf3 -Z (sendfile mode) when generic retpolines are needed. With SK_RECLAIM_THRESHOLD checks gone number of calls to enter/leave memory pressure happen much more often. For TCP indirect calls are used. We can't remove the if-set-return short-circuit check in tcp_enter_memory_pressure because there are callers other than sk_enter_memory_pressure. Doing a check in the sk wrapper too reduces the indirect calls enough to recover some performance. Before, 0.00-60.00 sec 322 GBytes 46.1 Gbits/sec receiver After: 0.00-60.04 sec 359 GBytes 51.4 Gbits/sec receiver "iperf3 -c $peer -t 60 -Z -f g", connected via veth in another netns. </quote> It seems we forgot to upstream this indirect call mitigation we had for years, lets do this instead. [edumazet] - It seems we forgot to upstream this indirect call mitigation we had for years, let's do this instead. - Changed to INDIRECT_CALL_INET_1() to avoid bots reports.
