I am attempting to do it properly, I simply made a mistake. Ben also pointed it out. As you wrote yesterday, "Lets go forward". After fixing the BITS_PER_LONG problem I looked at it again and it appears that by simply replacing the "secmark" field with a blob we retain the size of the sk_buff as well as the cacheline positions of all the fields, e.g. dma_cookie no longer moves cachelines. Thoughts? struct sk_buff_test { struct sk_buff * next; /* 0 8 */ struct sk_buff * prev; /* 8 8 */ ktime_t tstamp; /* 16 8 */ struct sock * sk; /* 24 8 */ struct net_device * dev; /* 32 8 */ char cb[48]; /* 40 48 */ /* --- cacheline 1 boundary (64 bytes) was 24 bytes ago --- */ long unsigned int _skb_refdst; /* 88 8 */ struct sec_path * sp; /* 96 8 */ unsigned int len; /* 104 4 */ unsigned int data_len; /* 108 4 */ __u16 mac_len; /* 112 2 */ __u16 hdr_len; /* 114 2 */ union { __wsum csum; /* 4 */ struct { __u16 csum_start; /* 116 2 */ __u16 csum_offset; /* 118 2 */ }; /* 4 */ }; /* 116 4 */ __u32 priority; /* 120 4 */ int flags1_begin[0]; /* 124 0 */ __u8 local_df:1; /* 124: 7 1 */ __u8 cloned:1; /* 124: 6 1 */ __u8 ip_summed:2; /* 124: 4 1 */ __u8 nohdr:1; /* 124: 3 1 */ __u8 nfctinfo:3; /* 124: 0 1 */ __u8 pkt_type:3; /* 125: 5 1 */ __u8 fclone:2; /* 125: 3 1 */ __u8 ipvs_property:1; /* 125: 2 1 */ __u8 peeked:1; /* 125: 1 1 */ __u8 nf_trace:1; /* 125: 0 1 */ /* XXX 2 bytes hole, try to pack */ /* --- cacheline 2 boundary (128 bytes) --- */ int flags1_end[0]; /* 128 0 */ __be16 protocol; /* 128 2 */ /* XXX 6 bytes hole, try to pack */ void (*destructor)(struct sk_buff *); /* 136 8 */ struct nf_conntrack * nfct; /* 144 8 */ struct sk_buff * nfct_reasm; /* 152 8 */ struct nf_bridge_info * nf_bridge; /* 160 8 */ int skb_iif; /* 168 4 */ __u32 rxhash; /* 172 4 */ __u16 vlan_tci; /* 176 2 */ __u16 tc_index; /* 178 2 */ __u16 tc_verd; /* 180 2 */ __u16 queue_mapping; /* 182 2 */ int flags2_begin[0]; /* 184 0 */ __u8 ndisc_nodetype:2; /* 184: 6 1 */ __u8 pfmemalloc:1; /* 184: 5 1 */ __u8 ooo_okay:1; /* 184: 4 1 */ __u8 l4_rxhash:1; /* 184: 3 1 */ __u8 wifi_acked_valid:1; /* 184: 2 1 */ __u8 wifi_acked:1; /* 184: 1 1 */ __u8 no_fcs:1; /* 184: 0 1 */ __u8 head_frag:1; /* 185: 7 1 */ __u8 encapsulation:1; /* 185: 6 1 */ /* XXX 6 bits hole, try to pack */ /* XXX 2 bytes hole, try to pack */ int flags2_end[0]; /* 188 0 */ dma_cookie_t dma_cookie; /* 188 4 */ /* --- cacheline 3 boundary (192 bytes) --- */ void * security; /* 192 8 */ union { __u32 mark; /* 4 */ __u32 dropcount; /* 4 */ __u32 reserved_tailroom; /* 4 */ }; /* 200 4 */ sk_buff_data_t inner_transport_header; /* 204 4 */ sk_buff_data_t inner_network_header; /* 208 4 */ sk_buff_data_t transport_header; /* 212 4 */ sk_buff_data_t network_header; /* 216 4 */ sk_buff_data_t mac_header; /* 220 4 */ sk_buff_data_t tail; /* 224 4 */ sk_buff_data_t end; /* 228 4 */ unsigned char * head; /* 232 8 */ unsigned char * data; /* 240 8 */ unsigned int truesize; /* 248 4 */ atomic_t users; /* 252 4 */ /* --- cacheline 4 boundary (256 bytes) --- */ /* size: 256, cachelines: 4, members: 62 */ /* sum members: 246, holes: 3, sum holes: 10 */ /* bit holes: 1, sum bit holes: 6 bits */ }; -- paul moore security and virtualization @ redhat -- This message was distributed to subscribers of the selinux mailing list.
