      selftests: net: avoid ptl lock contention in tcp_mmap · 597b01ed
      Eric Dumazet authored
      tcp_mmap is used as a reference program for TCP rx zerocopy,
      so it is important to point out some potential issues.
      
      If multiple threads are concurrently using getsockopt(...
      TCP_ZEROCOPY_RECEIVE), there is a chance the low-level mm
      functions compete on shared ptl lock, if vma are arbitrary placed.
      
      Instead of letting the mm layer place the chunks back to back,
      this patch enforces an alignment so that each thread uses
      a different ptl lock.
      
      Performance measured on a 100 Gbit NIC, with 8 tcp_mmap clients
      launched at the same time :
      
      $ for f in {1..8}; do ./tcp_mmap -H 2002:a05:6608:290:: & done
      
      In the following run, we reproduce the old behavior by requesting no alignment :
      
      $ tcp_mmap -sz -C $((128*1024)) -a 4096

      New behavior (automatic alignment based on Hugepagesize),
      we can see the system overhead being dramatically reduced.
