Lorenzo Bianconi 879456bedb net: mvneta: avoid possible cache misses in mvneta_rx_swbm
Do not use rx_desc pointers if possible since rx descriptors are stored in
uncached memory and dereferencing rx_desc pointers generate extra loads.
This patch improves XDP_DROP performance of ~ 110Kpps (700Kpps vs 590Kpps)

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
