From: Eric Dumazet <redacted> commit f3c5c1bfd4 (netfilter: xtables: make ip_tables reentrant) introduced a performance regression, because stackptr array is shared by all cpus, adding cache line ping pongs. (16 cpus share a 64 bytes cache line) Fix this using alloc_percpu() Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <redacted> Acked-By: Jan Engelhardt <redacted> Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <redacted> --- include/linux/netfilter/x_tables.h | 2 +- net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.c | 2 +- net/ipv6/netfilter/ip6_tables.c | 2 +- net/netfilter/x_tables.c | 13 +++---------- 4 files changed, 6 insertions(+), 13 deletions(-)
