Subject: [PATCH] pppoatm: Fix excessive queue bloat
|
||||
|
||||
We discovered that PPPoATM has an excessively deep transmit queue. A
|
||||
queue the size of the default socket send buffer (wmem_default) is
|
||||
maintained between the PPP generic core and the ATM device.
|
||||
|
||||
Fix it to queue a maximum of *two* packets. The one the ATM device is
|
||||
currently working on, and one more for the ATM driver to process
|
||||
immediately in its TX done interrupt handler. The PPP core is designed
|
||||
to feed packets to the channel with minimal latency, so that really
|
||||
ought to be enough to keep the ATM device busy.
|
||||
|
||||
While we're at it, fix the fact that we were triggering the wakeup
|
||||
tasklet on *every* pppoatm_pop() call. The comment saying "this is
|
||||
inefficient, but doing it right is too hard" turns out to be overly
|
||||
pessimistic... I think :)
|
||||
|
||||
On machines like the Traverse Geos, with a slow Geode CPU and two
|
||||
high-speed ADSL2+ interfaces, there were reports of extremely high CPU
|
||||
usage which could partly be attributed to the extra wakeups.
|
||||
|
||||
(The wakeup handling could actually be made a whole lot easier if we
|
||||
stop checking sk->sk_sndbuf altogether. Given that we now only queue
|
||||
*two* packets ever, one wonders what the point is. As it is, you could
|
||||
already deadlock the thing by setting the sk_sndbuf to a value lower
|
||||
than the MTU of the device, and it'd just block for ever.)
