# \[PATCH net-next 0/6\] net\_sched: act: lockless operation - From: Eric Dumazet \ - Date: 2015-07-02 13:07:48 - List: netdev - Page: https://ratatoskr.run/netdev/2015/07/10991009 - Thread: https://ratatoskr.run/netdev/2015/07/10991009/t.md ```text As mentioned by Alexei last week in Budapest, it is a bit weird to take a spinlock in order to drop a packet in a tc filter... Lets add percpu infra for tc actions and use it for gact. Before changes, my host with 8 RX queues was handling 5 Mpps, and more than 10 Mpps after.
