2016-06-10net_sched: remove generic throttled managementEric Dumazet9-35/+6
__QDISC_STATE_THROTTLED bit manipulation is rather expensive for HTB and few others. I already removed it for sch_fq in commit f2600cf02b5b ("net: sched: avoid costly atomic operation in fq_dequeue()") and so far nobody complained. When one ore more packets are stuck in one or more throttled HTB class, a htb dequeue() performs two atomic operations to clear/set __QDISC_STATE_THROTTLED bit, while root qdisc lock is held. Removing this pair of atomic operations bring me a 8 % performance increase on 200 TCP_RR tests, in presence of throttled classes. This patch has no side effect, since nothing actually uses disc_is_throttled() anymore. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2016-06-10net_sched: netem: remove qdisc_is_throttled() useEric Dumazet1-3/+0
Looks like it is only there as some optimization attempt. Since __QDISC_STATE_THROTTLED set/unset is way too expensive, and netem is the last user, just remove this check. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2016-06-10net_sched: cbq: remove a flaky use of qdisc_is_throttled()Eric Dumazet1-1/+1
So far no qdisc ever unset the throttled bit at enqueue() time, so CBQ usage of qdisc_is_throttled() was flaky. Since __QDISC_STATE_THROTTLED set/unset is way too expensive considering that only CBQ was eventually caring for this status, it would make sense to implement a Qdisc ops ->is_throttled() if we find that this is needed.

2016-06-10net_sched: sch_plug: use a private throttled statusEric Dumazet1-6/+8
We want to get rid of generic qdisc throttled management, so this qdisc has to use a private flag. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
