[bpf-next V3 PATCH 13/15] mlx5: use page_pool for xdp_return_frame call

From: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <hidden>
Date: 2018-03-09 20:56:11
Subsystem: mellanox ethernet driver (mlx5e), mellanox mlx5 core vpi driver, networking drivers, networking [general], page pool, the rest · Maintainers: Saeed Mahameed, Tariq Toukan, Mark Bloch, Leon Romanovsky, Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Jesper Dangaard Brouer, Ilias Apalodimas, Linus Torvalds

This patch shows how it is possible to have both the driver local page
cache, which uses elevated refcnt for "catching"/avoiding SKB
put_page.  And at the same time, have pages getting returned to the
page_pool from ndp_xdp_xmit DMA completion.

Performance is surprisingly good. Tested DMA-TX completion on ixgbe,
that calls "xdp_return_frame", which call page_pool_put_page().
Stats show DMA-TX-completion runs on CPU#9 and mlx5 RX runs on CPU#5.
(Internally page_pool uses ptr_ring, which is what gives the good
cross CPU performance).

Show adapter(s) (ixgbe2 mlx5p2) statistics (ONLY that changed!)

Before this patch: single flow performance was 6Mpps, and if I started
two flows the collective performance drop to 4Mpps, because we hit the
page allocator lock (further negative scaling occurs).

V2: Adjustments requested by Tariq
 - Changed page_pool_create return codes not return NULL, only
   ERR_PTR, as this simplifies err handling in drivers.
 - Save a branch in mlx5e_page_release
 - Correct page_pool size calc for MLX5_WQ_TYPE_LINKED_LIST_STRIDING_RQ
