From 0bfbedb14a8a96c529341bec88991a92b41fac72 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Mon, 5 Oct 2009 00:11:22 -0700 Subject: tunnels: Optimize tx path We currently dirty a cache line to update tunnel device stats (tx_packets/tx_bytes). We better use the txq->tx_bytes/tx_packets counters that already are present in cpu cache, in the cache line shared with txq->_xmit_lock This patch extends IPTUNNEL_XMIT() macro to use txq pointer provided by the caller. Also &tunnel->dev->stats can be replaced by &dev->stats Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S.
