Thanks Stephen, thats very cool stuff, yet another rwlock out of
kernel :)
Do you folks need/want further testing against the 32-core setup?
It would be good to combine all 3 (iptables-rcu, timer change, and
conntrack lock)
to see what the overhead change is.
Fair enough. Is there a tree somewhere I can pull with all those in it,
or do I need to go back through the emails and apply patches?
You can use my nf-next.git tree from:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kaber/nf-next-2.6.git
It contains the lock free counters, as well as smaller optimizations
from Eric. The last timer patch I've seen missed the actual conversion
to use mod_timer_pending(), but it would be great to have some numbers
on the conntrack lock changes. Thanks Rick!
