The next changeset from Joyent (Jerry Jelinek, this time) focusses on
false-sharing in the TCP stack, and raising some default fanout values:
http://www.kebe.com/~danmcd/webrevs/916/
I also have no problem with these set of changes.
I will WARN folks that there are other such closely-placed locks in the
TCP/IP code. Off the top of my head:
- connf_t (ipclassifier.h)
- irb_t (ip.h)
- isaf_t (sadb.h)
If anyone has a high-stress networking test rig (Hello Joyent?), please
contact me here or off-list so we can talk about these other sources of
false-sharing.
Again, please speak up so this changeset can go back!
Thanks,
Dan
