      tcp: Reorganize tcp_sock to fill 64-bit holes & improve locality · b79eeeb9
      Ilpo Järvinen authored
      I tried to group recovery related fields nearby (non-CA_Open related
      variables, to be more accurate) so that one to three cachelines would
      not be necessary in CA_Open. These are now contiguously deployed:
      
        struct sk_buff_head        out_of_order_queue;   /*  1968    80 */
        /* --- cacheline 32 boundary (2048 bytes) --- */
        struct tcp_sack_block      duplicate_sack[1];    /*  2048     8 */
        struct tcp_sack_block      selective_acks[4];    /*  2056    32 */
        struct tcp_sack_block      recv_sack_cache[4];   /*  2088    32 */
        /* --- cacheline 33 boundary (2112 bytes) was 8 bytes ago --- */
        struct sk_buff *           highest_sack;         /*  2120     8 */
        int                        lost_cnt_hint;        /*  2128     4 */
        int                        retransmit_cnt_hint;  /*  2132     4 */
        u32                        lost_retrans_low;     /*  2136     4 */
        u8                         reordering;           /*  2140     1 */
        u8                         keepalive_probes;     /*  2141     1 */
      
        /* XXX 2 bytes hole, try to pack */
      
        u32                        prior_ssthresh;       /*  2144     4 */
        u32                        high_seq;             /*  2148     4 */
        u32                        retrans_stamp;        /*  2152     4 */
        u32                        undo_marker;          /*  2156     4 */
        int                        undo_retrans;         /*  2160     4 */
        u32                        total_retrans;        /*  2164     4 */
      
      ...and they're then followed by URG slowpath & keepalive related
      variables.
      
      Head of the out_of_order_queue always needed for empty checks, if
      that's empty (and TCP is in CA_Open), following ~200 bytes (in 64-bit)
      shouldn't be necessary for anything. If only OFO queue exists but TCP
      is in CA_Open, selective_acks (and possibly duplicate_sack) are
      necessary besides the out_of_order_queue but the rest of the block
      again shouldn't be (ie., the other direction had losses).
      
      As the cacheline boundaries depend on many factors in the preceeding
      stuff, trying to align considering them doesn't make too much sense.
      
      Commented one ordering hazard.
      
      There are number of low utilized u8/16s that could be combined get 2
      bytes less in total so that the hole could be made to vanish (includes
      at least ecn_flags, urg_data, urg_mode, frto_counter, nonagle).
