From 7170e6045a6a8b33f4fa5753589dc77b16198e2d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Doron Roberts-Kedes Date: Wed, 6 Jun 2018 09:33:28 -0700 Subject: strparser: Add __strp_unpause and use it in ktls. strp_unpause queues strp_work in order to parse any messages that arrived while the strparser was paused. However, the process invoking strp_unpause could eagerly parse a buffered message itself if it held the sock lock. __strp_unpause is an alternative to strp_pause that avoids the scheduling overhead that results when a receiving thread unpauses the strparser and waits for the next message to be delivered by the workqueue thread. This patch more than doubled the IOPS achieved in a benchmark of NBD traffic encrypted using ktls. Signed-off-by: Doron Roberts-Kedes Signed-off-by: David S.
