input_queue_tail_incr_save() is incrementing the sd queue_tail and save it in the flow last_qtail. Two issues here : - no lock protects the write on last_qtail, we should use appropriate annotations. - We can perform this write after releasing the per-cpu backlog lock, to decrease this lock hold duration (move away the cache line miss) Also move input_queue_head_incr() and rps helpers to include/net/rps.h, while adding rps_ prefix to better reflect their role. v2: Fixed a build issue (Jakub and kernel build bots) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
