bpf, cpumap: Bulk skb using netif_receive_skb_list
Rely on netif_receive_skb_list routine to send skbs converted from xdp_frames in cpu_map_kthread_run in order to improve i-cache usage. The proposed patch has been tested running xdp_redirect_cpu bpf sample available in the kernel tree that is used to redirect UDP frames from ixgbe driver to a cpumap entry and then to the networking stack. UDP frames are generated using pktgen. Packets are discarded by the UDP layer. $ xdp_redirect_cpu --cpu <cpu> --progname xdp_cpu_map0 --dev <eth> bpf-next: ~2.35Mpps bpf-next + cpumap skb-list: ~2.72Mpps Rename drops counter in kmem_alloc_drops since now it reports just kmem_cache_alloc_bulk failures Signed-off-by: Lorenzo Bianconi <lorenzo@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net> Acked-by: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <brouer@redhat.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/c729f83e5d7482d9329e0f165bdbe5adcefd1510.1619169700.git.lorenzo@kernel.org
