net: dev: introduce support for sch BYPASS for lockless qdisc
With commit c5ad119 ("net: sched: pfifo_fast use skb_array")
pfifo_fast no longer benefit from the TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS optimization.
Due to retpolines the cost of the enqueue()/dequeue() pair has become
relevant and we observe measurable regression for the uncontended
scenario when the packet-rate is below line rate.
After commit 46b1c18 ("net: sched: put back q.qlen into a
single location") we can check for empty qdisc with a reasonably
fast operation even for nolock qdiscs.
This change extends TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS support to nolock qdisc.
The new chunk of code mirrors closely the existing one for traditional
qdisc, leveraging a newly introduced helper to read atomically the
qdisc length.
Tested with pktgen in queue xmit mode, with pfifo_fast, a MQ
device, and MQ root qdisc:
threads vanilla patched
kpps kpps
1 2465 2889
2 4304 5188
4 7898 9589
Same as above, but with a single queue device:
threads vanilla patched
kpps kpps
1 2556 2827
2 2900 2900
4 5000 5000
8 4700 4700
No mesaurable changes in the contended scenarios, and more 10%
improvement in the uncontended ones.
v1 -> v2:
- rebased after flag name change
