4.15-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Toshiaki Makita <makita.toshiaki@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit fdaa767aefc1685f9a41e91f447c9aea94103df6 ] Since commit 39e6c8208d7b ("net: solve a NAPI race") napi has been able to be rescheduled within napi_complete_done() even in non-busypoll case, but virtnet_poll() always enabled interrupts before complete, and when napi was rescheduled within napi_complete_done() it did not disable interrupts. This caused more interrupts when event idx is disabled. According to commit cbdadbbf0c79 ("virtio_net: fix race in RX VQ processing") we cannot place virtqueue_enable_cb_prepare() after NAPI_STATE_SCHED is cleared, so disable interrupts again if napi_complete_done() returned false. Tested with vhost-user of OVS 2.7 on host, which does not have the event idx feature. * Before patch: $ netperf -t UDP_STREAM -H 192.168.150.253 -l 60 -- -m 1472 MIGRATED UDP STREAM TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET to 192.168.150.253 () port 0 AF_INET Socket Message Elapsed Messages Size Size Time Okay Errors Throughput bytes bytes secs # # 10^6bits/sec 212992 1472 60.00 32763206 0 6430.32 212992 60.00 23384299 4589.56 Interrupts on guest: 9872369 Packets/interrupt: 2.37 * After patch $ netperf -t UDP_STREAM -H 192.168.150.253 -l 60 -- -m 1472 MIGRATED UDP STREAM TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET to 192.168.150.253 () port 0 AF_INET Socket Message Elapsed Messages Size Size Time Okay Errors Throughput bytes bytes secs # # 10^6bits/sec 212992 1472 60.00 32794646 0 6436.49 212992 60.00 32793501 6436.27 Interrupts on guest: 4941299 Packets/interrupt: 6.64 Signed-off-by: Toshiaki Makita <makita.toshiaki@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Acked-by: Michael S.
