From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 29f3490ba9d2399d3d1b20c4aa74592d92bd4e11 upstream. TCP recvmsg() calls skb_copy_datagram_iter(), which calls an indirect function (cb pointing to simple_copy_to_iter()) for every MSS (fragment) present in the skb. CONFIG_RETPOLINE=y forces a very expensive operation that we can avoid thanks to indirect call wrappers. This patch gives a 13% increase of performance on a single flow, if the bottleneck is the thread reading the TCP socket.
