net: Use this_cpu_inc() to increment net->core_stats
The macro dev_core_stats_##FIELD##_inc() disables preemption and invokes netdev_core_stats_alloc() to return a per-CPU pointer. netdev_core_stats_alloc() will allocate memory on its first invocation which breaks on PREEMPT_RT because it requires non-atomic context for memory allocation. This can be avoided by enabling preemption in netdev_core_stats_alloc() assuming the caller always disables preemption. It might be better to replace local_inc() with this_cpu_inc() now that dev_core_stats_##FIELD##_inc() gained a preempt-disable section and does not rely on already disabled preemption. This results in less instructions on x86-64: local_inc: | incl %gs:__preempt_count(%rip) # __preempt_count | movq 488(%rdi), %rax # _1->core_stats, _22 | testq %rax, %rax # _22 | je .L585 #, | add %gs:this_cpu_off(%rip), %rax # this_cpu_off, tcp_ptr__ | .L586: | testq %rax, %rax # _27 | je .L587 #, | incq (%rax) # _6->a.counter | .L587: | decl %gs:__preempt_count(%rip) # __preempt_count this_cpu_inc(), this patch: | movq 488(%rdi), %rax # _1->core_stats, _5 | testq %rax, %rax # _5 | je .L591 #, | .L585: | incq %gs:(%rax) # _18->rx_dropped Use unsigned long as type for the counter. Use this_cpu_inc() to increment the counter. Use a plain read of the counter.
