ipv6: fib6: avoid indirect calls from fib6_rule_lookup
It was reported that a considerable amount of cycles were spent on the expensive indirect calls on fib6_rule_lookup. This patch introduces an inline helper called pol_route_func that uses the indirect_call_wrappers to avoid the indirect calls. This patch saves around 50ns per call. Performance was measured on the receiver by checking the amount of syncookies that server was able to generate under a synflood load. Traffic was generated using trafgen[1] which was pushing around 1Mpps on a single queue. Receiver was using only one rx queue which help to create a bottle neck and make the experiment rx-bounded. These are the syncookies generated over 10s from the different runs: Whithout the patch: TcpExtSyncookiesSent 3553749 0.0 TcpExtSyncookiesSent 3550895 0.0 TcpExtSyncookiesSent 3553845 0.0 TcpExtSyncookiesSent 3541050 0.0 TcpExtSyncookiesSent 3539921 0.0 TcpExtSyncookiesSent 3557659 0.0 TcpExtSyncookiesSent 3526812 0.0 TcpExtSyncookiesSent 3536121 0.0 TcpExtSyncookiesSent 3529963 0.0 TcpExtSyncookiesSent 3536319 0.0 With the patch: TcpExtSyncookiesSent 3611786 0.0 TcpExtSyncookiesSent 3596682 0.0 TcpExtSyncookiesSent 3606878 0.0 TcpExtSyncookiesSent 3599564 0.0 TcpExtSyncookiesSent 3601304 0.0 TcpExtSyncookiesSent 3609249 0.0 TcpExtSyncookiesSent 3617437 0.0 TcpExtSyncookiesSent 3608765 0.0 TcpExtSyncookiesSent 3620205 0.0 TcpExtSyncookiesSent 3601895 0.0 Without the patch the average is 354263 pkt/s or 2822 ns/pkt and with the patch the average is 360738 pkt/s or 2772 ns/pkt which gives an estimate of 50 ns per packet.
