Patch 1, 2, 4: Port Pravin B Shelar patches to linux upstream with little changes. Patch 5, 6, 7: Optimize the flow looking up and simplify the flow hash. Patch 8, 9: are bugfix. The performance test is on Intel Xeon E5-2630 v4. The test topology is show as below: +-----------------------------------+ | +---------------------------+ | | | eth0 ovs-switch eth1 | | Host0 | +---------------------------+ | +-----------------------------------+ ^ | | | | | | | | v +-----+----+ +----+-----+ | netperf | Host1 | netserver| Host2 +----------+ +----------+ We use netperf send the 64B packets, and insert 255+ flow-mask: $ ovs-dpctl add-flow ovs-switch "in_port(1),eth(dst=00:01:00:00:00:00/ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:01),eth_type(0x0800),ipv4(frag=no)" 2 ... $ ovs-dpctl add-flow ovs-switch "in_port(1),eth(dst=00:ff:00:00:00:00/ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff),eth_type(0x0800),ipv4(frag=no)" 2 $ $ netperf -t UDP_STREAM -H 2.2.2.200 -l 40 -- -m 18 * Without series patch, throughput 8.28Mbps * With series patch, throughput 46.05Mbps v6: some coding style fixes v5: rewrite patch 8, release flow-mask when freeing flow v4: access ma->count with READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE API. More information, see patch 5 comments. v3: update ma point when realloc mask_array in patch 5 v2: simplify codes. e.g. use kfree_rcu instead of call_rcu ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
