v3 cover ath11k: optimizations in data path

This patchset covers optimizations in rx (first 7 patches) and tx (remaining 5 patches) data path.

Running UDP DL/UL traffic on IPQ8074 5G radio showed an average 5-10% improvement on a 4 core platform
---
v3:
- Changed rcu_dereference to rcu_access_pointer in
[PATCH 07/12] ath11k: add branch predictors in process_rx [PATCH 11/12] ath11k: add branch predictors in dp_tx path. removed redundant check in
[PATCH 02/12] ath11k: allocate dst ring descriptors from cacheable memory.
v2:
- Addressed internal developer reported segfault and avoid lookup twice by utilizing idr_remove (patch 12/12 and patch 2/12).

P Praneesh (12):
ath11k: disable unused CE8 interrupts for ipq8074
ath11k: allocate dst ring descriptors from cacheable memory

PATCH v3 1/12 ath11k: disable unused CE8 interrupts for ipq8074

Host driver doesn't need to process CE8 interrupts (used by target independently)

The volume of interrupts is huge within short interval,
CPU0 CPU1 CPU2 CPU3
14022188 0 0 0 GIC 71 Edge ce8

Hence disabling unused CE8 interrupt will improve CPU usage.

PATCH v3 2/12 ath11k: allocate dst ring descriptors from cacheable memory

In reply to P Praneesh

tcl_data and reo_dst rings are currently being allocated using dma_allocate_coherent() which is non cacheable.

Allocating ring memory from cacheable memory area allows cached descriptor access and prefetch next descriptors to optimize CPU usage during descriptor processing on NAPI. Based on the hardware param we can enable or disable this feature for the corresponding platform.

PATCH v3 3/12 ath11k: modify dp_rx desc access wrapper calls inline

In reply to P Praneesh

In data path, to reduce the CPU cycles spending on descriptor access wrapper function, changed those functions as static inline.

Re: [PATCH v3 03/12] ath11k: modify dp_rx desc access wrapper calls inline

Quoted 19 lines · P Praneesh

In data path, to reduce the CPU cycles spending on descriptor access wrapper function, changed those functions as static inline.

The compiler does not optimise small static functions like this automatically to inline? I'm surprised. Or are you using some really old compiler?

PATCH v3 4/12 ath11k: avoid additional access to ath11k_hal_srng_dst_num_free

In reply to P Praneesh

In ath11k_dp_process_rx(), after processing rx_desc from ath11k_hal_srng_dst_get_next_entry(), ath11k_hal_srng_dst_num_free() is accessed everytime because of done flag is not set.

To avoid this additional access to ath11k_hal_srng_dst_num_free(), increment total_msdu_reaped only when continuation is not set and update done flag correspondingly.

PATCH v3 5/12 ath11k: avoid active pdev check for each msdu

In reply to P Praneesh

The Active Pdev and CAC check are done for each msdu in ath11k_dp_rx_process_received_packets which is a overhead. To avoid this overhead, collect all msdus in a per mac msdu list and pass to function.

PATCH v3 6/12 ath11k: remove usage quota while processing rx packets

In reply to P Praneesh

The usage of quota variable inside ath11k_dp_rx_process_received_packets() is redundant. Since we would queue only max packets to the list before calling this function so it would never exceed quota. Hence removing usage of quota variable.

PATCH v3 7/12 ath11k: add branch predictors in process_rx

In reply to P Praneesh

In datapath, add branch predictors where required in the process rx(). This protects high value rx path without having performance overhead. Also while processing rx packets, the pointer that is returned by rcu_dereference() is not dereferenced. so it is preferable to use rcu_access_pointer() here.

PATCH v3 8/12 ath11k: allocate HAL_WBM2SW_RELEASE ring from cacheable memory

In reply to P Praneesh

Similar to REO destination ring, also allocate HAL_WBM2SW_RELEASE from cacheable memory so that descriptors could be prefetched during tx completion handling.

PATCH v3 10/12 ath11k: avoid while loop in ring selection of tx completion interrupt

In reply to P Praneesh

Currently while loop is used to find the tx completion ring number and it is not required since the tx ring mask and the group id can be combined to directly fetch the ring number. Hence remove the while loop and directly get the ring number from tx mask and group id.

PATCH v3 11/12 ath11k: add branch predictors in dp_tx path

In reply to P Praneesh

Add branch prediction in dp_tx code path in tx and tx completion handlers. Also in ath11k_dp_tx_complete_msdu , the pointer that is returned by rcu_dereference() is not dereferenced. so it is preferable to use rcu_access_pointer() here.

PATCH v3 12/12 ath11k: avoid unnecessary lock contention in tx_completion path

In reply to P Praneesh

Avoid unnecessary idr_find calls before the idr_remove calls. Because idr_remove gives the valid ptr if id is valid otherwise return NULL ptr. So removed the idr_find before idr_remove in tx completion path. Also no need to disable the bottom half preempt if it is already in the bottom half context, so modify the spin_lock_bh to spin_lock in the data tx completion path.
