They can be respectively set by: > /sys/devices/virtual/smc/loopback-ism/dmb_type > /sys/devices/virtual/smc/loopback-ism/dmb_copy > The motivation for these two control is that a performance bottleneck was > found when using vzalloced DMB and sndbuf is merged with DMB, and there are > many CPUs and CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY is set [4]. The bottleneck is caused > by the lock contention in vmap_area_lock [5] which is involved in memcpy_from_msg() > or memcpy_to_msg(). Currently, Uladzislau Rezki is working on mitigating the > vmap lock contention [6]. It has significant effects, but using virtual memory > still has additional overhead compared to using physical memory. > So this new version provides controls of dmb_type and dmb_copy to suit > different scenarios. > - Some minor changes and comments improvements. > ## Form letter - net-next-closed The merge window for v6.9 has begun and we have already posted our pull request. Therefore net-next is closed for new drivers, features, code refactoring and optimizations. We are currently accepting bug fixes only. Please repost when net-next reopens after March 25th. RFC patches sent for review only are obviously welcome at any time. See: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/next/process/maintainer-netdev.html#development-cycle
