Subject: net: add tx_packets/tx_bytes/tx_dropped counters in struct netdev_queue
X-Git-Tag: v3.0~8655^2~460
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=7004bf252c53da18f6b55103e0c92f777f846806;p=platform%2Fkernel%2Flinux-amlogic.git

net: add tx_packets/tx_bytes/tx_dropped counters in struct netdev_queue

offsetof(struct net_device, features)=0x44
offsetof(struct net_device, stats.tx_packets)=0x54
offsetof(struct net_device, stats.tx_bytes)=0x5c
offsetof(struct net_device, stats.tx_dropped)=0x6c

Network drivers that touch dev->stats.tx_packets/stats.tx_bytes in their
tx path can slow down SMP operations, since they dirty a cache line
that should stay shared (dev->features is needed in rx and tx paths)

We could move away stats field in net_device but it wont help that much.
(Two cache lines dirtied in tx path, we can do one only)

Better solution is to add tx_packets/tx_bytes/tx_dropped in struct
netdev_queue because this structure is already touched in tx path and
counters updates will then be free (no increase in size)
