From 482ad2a4ace2740ca0ff1cbc8f3c7f862f3ab507 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Wed, 5 Feb 2025 15:51:09 +0000 Subject: net: add dev_net_rcu() helper dev->nd_net can change, readers should either use rcu_read_lock() or RTNL. We currently use a generic helper, dev_net() with no debugging support. We probably have many hidden bugs. Add dev_net_rcu() helper for callers using rcu_read_lock() protection.

The intended goal of such change was to counter a performance regression introduced by commit 3226b158e67c ("net: avoid 32 x truesize under-estimation for tiny skbs"). Unfortunately, the blamed commit introduces another regression for the virtio_net driver. Such a driver calls napi_alloc_skb() with a tiny size, so that the whole head frag could fit a 512-byte block. The single page frag cache uses a 1K fragment for such allocation, and the additional overhead, under small UDP packets flood, makes the page allocator a bottleneck. Thanks to commit bf9f1baa279f ("net: add dedicated kmem_cache for typical/small skb->head"), this revert does not re-introduce the original regression. Actually, in the relevant test on top of this revert, I measure a small but noticeable positive delta, just above noise level. The revert itself required some additional mangling due to the introduction of the SKB_HEAD_ALIGN() helper and local lock infra in the affected code.
