[PATCH 1/1] IB/rxe: remove unnecessary skb_clone in xmit

[PATCH 1/1] IB/rxe: remove unnecessary skb_clone in xmit

[Zhu Yanjun]

In xmit, there is a skb_clone. This function copies the struct sk_buff.
And some parameters are changed to the new skb. Then the new skb is sent
while the old skb is freed.

While the function skb_clone is removed, the parameter changes are made on
the old skb, then the old skb is sent. It can also work well.

The following tests are made.

 server                       client
---------                    ---------
|1.1.1.1|<----rxe-channel--->|1.1.1.2|
---------                    ---------

On server: rping -s -a 1.1.1.1 -v -C 1000 -S 512
On client: rping -c -a 1.1.1.1 -v -C 1000 -S 512

The kernel config CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK is enabled on both server
and client.

This test runs for several hours. There is no memory leak and the whole
system can work well.

[PATCHv2 1/1] IB/rxe: remove unnecessary skb_clone

[Zhu Yanjun]

In send_atomic_ack function, it is not necessary make a
skb_clone. To gain better performance(high throughput and
low latency), this skb_clone is removed.

The following tests are made.

 server                       client
---------                    ---------
|1.1.1.1|<----rxe-channel--->|1.1.1.2|
---------                    ---------

On server: rping -s -a 1.1.1.1 -v -C 1000 -S 512
On client: rping -c -a 1.1.1.1 -v -C 1000 -S 512

The kernel config CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK is enabled on both server
and client.

This test runs for several hours. There is no memory leak and the whole
system can work well.

As the above network, the following tests are made.

Server: ibv_rc_pingpong -d rxe0 -g 1
Client: ibv_rc_pingpong -d rxe0 -g 1 1.1.1.1

The result on Server(10 tests are made).
Before:
Throughput is 137.07 Mbit/sec
Latency is 517.76 usec/iter

After:
Throughput is 148.85 Mbit/sec
Latency is 476.64 usec/iter

The throughput is enhanced and the latency is reduced.

V1-->V2: 10 tests are made. From throughput and latency, the performance is better.

 From my stress tests and performance tests, it will get better 
performance to remove skb_clone.
And there is no memory leak.  The whole soft RoCE can work well.
So I think removing this function is a good choice.

Hi, Yuval

Thanks for your code review.

 From the function send_atomic_ack, the variable skb is used in the 
following 2 places.
"
...
         res->type = RXE_ATOMIC_MASK;
         res->atomic.skb = skb;           <----One is here.
         res->first_psn = ack_pkt.psn;
         res->last_psn  = ack_pkt.psn;
         res->cur_psn   = ack_pkt.psn;

         rc = rxe_xmit_packet(rxe, qp, &ack_pkt, skb); <---The other is 
here.
...
"
The 2 will call kfree_skb after skb is used.

void kfree_skb(struct sk_buff *skb)
{
         if (!skb_unref(skb))
                 return;

         trace_kfree_skb(skb, __builtin_return_address(0));
         __kfree_skb(skb);
}

In the function kfree_skb, user ref is decreased and checked. To make 
sure in the 2 places, skb can be used.
I increased user ref.

[PATCHv3 1/1] IB/rxe: remove unnecessary skb_clone

[Zhu Yanjun]

In send_atomic_ack function, it is not necessary to make a
skb_clone. To gain better performance (high throughput and
low latency), this skb_clone is removed.

The following tests are made.

 server                       client
---------                    ---------
|1.1.1.1|<----rxe-channel--->|1.1.1.2|
---------                    ---------

On server: rping -s -a 1.1.1.1 -v -C 1000 -S 512
On client: rping -c -a 1.1.1.1 -v -C 1000 -S 512

The kernel config CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK is enabled on both server
and client.

This test runs for several hours. There is no memory leak and the whole
system can work well.

As the above network, the following tests are made.

Server: ibv_rc_pingpong -d rxe0 -g 1
Client: ibv_rc_pingpong -d rxe0 -g 1 1.1.1.1

The result on Server(10 tests are made).
Before:
Throughput is 137.07 Mbit/sec
Latency is 517.76 usec/iter

After:
Throughput is 148.85 Mbit/sec
Latency is 476.64 usec/iter

The throughput is enhanced and the latency is reduced.

V2-->V3: Fix typo errors.
V1-->V2: 10 tests are made. From throughput and latency, the performance is better.
