[PATCH net-next 2/2] net: mvneta: Use cacheable memory to store the rx buffer DMA address

Show key headers only | View raw

In hot code path such as mvneta_rx_hwbm() and mvneta_rx_swbm, the
buf_phys_addr field of rx_dec is accessed. The rx_desc is allocated by
dma_alloc_coherent, it's uncacheable if the device isn't cache
coherent, reading from uncached memory is fairly slow. This patch uses
cacheable memory to store the rx buffer DMA address. We get the
following performance data on Marvell BG4CT Platforms (tested with
iperf):

before the patch:
recving 1GB in mvneta_rx_swbm() costs 149265960 ns

after the patch:
recving 1GB in mvneta_rx_swbm() costs 1421565640 ns

We saved 4.76% time.
