virtio_net: Do not pull payload in skb->head
Xuan Zhuo reported that commit 3226b158e67c ("net: avoid 32 x truesize under-estimation for tiny skbs") brought a ~10% performance drop. The reason for the performance drop was that GRO was forced to chain sk_buff (using skb_shinfo(skb)->frag_list), which uses more memory but also cause packet consumers to go over a lot of overhead handling all the tiny skbs. It turns out that virtio_net page_to_skb() has a wrong strategy : It allocates skbs with GOOD_COPY_LEN (128) bytes in skb->head, then copies 128 bytes from the page, before feeding the packet to GRO stack. This was suboptimal before commit 3226b158e67c ("net: avoid 32 x truesize under-estimation for tiny skbs") because GRO was using 2 frags per MSS, meaning we were not packing MSS with 100% efficiency. Fix is to pull only the ethernet header in page_to_skb() Then, we change virtio_net_hdr_to_skb() to pull the missing headers, instead of assuming they were already pulled by callers. This fixes the performance regression, but could also allow virtio_net to accept packets with more than 128bytes of headers. Many thanks to Xuan Zhuo for his report, and his tests/help.
