From: Adrien Mazarguil Date: Thu, 2 Nov 2017 18:14:22 +0000 (+0100) Subject: net/mlx4: share memory region resources X-Git-Tag: spdx-start~945 X-Git-Url: http://git.droids-corp.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=0d03353077181299d33a37e52d93bba50fa5ba2a;p=dpdk.git net/mlx4: share memory region resources Memory regions assigned to hardware and used during Tx/Rx are mapped to mbuf pools. Each Rx queue creates its own MR based on the mempool provided during queue setup, while each Tx queue looks up and registers MRs for all existing mbuf pools instead. Since most applications use few large mbuf pools (usually only a single one per NUMA node) common to all Tx/Rx queues, the above approach wastes hardware resources due to redundant MRs. This negatively affects performance, particularly with large numbers of queues. This patch therefore makes the entire MR registration common to all queues using a reference count. A spinlock is added to protect against asynchronous registration that may occur from the Tx side where new mempools are discovered based on mbuf data.
