Subject[PATCH v2 -next] iommu/dma: avoid expensive indirect calls for sync operations
From
Quite often, NIC devices do not need dma_sync operations
on x86_64 at least.

Indeed, when dev_is_dma_coherent(dev) is true and
dev_use_swiotlb(dev) is false, iommu_dma_sync_single_for_cpu()
and friends do nothing.

However, indirectly calling them when CONFIG_RETPOLINE=y
consumes about 10% of cycles on a cpu receiving packets
from softirq at ~100Gbit rate, as shown in [1]

Even if/when CONFIG_RETPOLINE is not set, there
is a cost of about 3%.

This patch adds dev->skip_dma_sync boolean that can be opted-in.

For instance iommu_setup_dma_ops() can set this boolean to true
if CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG is not set, and dev_is_dma_coherent(dev).

Then later, if/when swiotlb is used for the first time, the flag
is turned off, from swiotlb_tbl_map_single()

We might in the future inline again these helpers, like:

static void inline
dma_sync_single_for_cpu(struct device *dev, dma_addr_t addr,
size_t size, enum dma_data_direction dir)
{
if (!dev_skip_dma_sync(dev))
__dma_sync_single_for_cpu(dev, addr, size, dir);
}

perf profile before the patch:

18.53% [kernel] [k] gq_rx_skb
14.77% [kernel] [k] napi_reuse_skb
8.95% [kernel] [k] skb_release_data
5.42% [kernel] [k] dev_gro_receive
5.37% [kernel] [k] memcpy
<*> 5.26% [kernel] [k] iommu_dma_sync_sg_for_cpu

<*> 4.42% [kernel] [k] iommu_dma_sync_sg_for_device

3.65% [kernel] [k] gq_pool_get
3.25% [kernel] [k] skb_gro_receive
2.07% [kernel] [k] napi_gro_frags
1.98% [kernel] [k] tcp6_gro_receive
1.27% [kernel] [k] gq_rx_prep_buffers
1.18% [kernel] [k] gq_rx_napi_handler
0.99% [kernel] [k] csum_partial
0.74% [kernel] [k] csum_ipv6_magic
0.72% [kernel] [k] free_pcp_prepare
0.60% [kernel] [k] __napi_poll
0.58% [kernel] [k] net_rx_action
0.56% [kernel] [k] read_tsc
<*> 0.50% [kernel] [k] __x86_indirect_thunk_r11
0.45% [kernel] [k] memset

After patch, lines with <*> no longer show up, and overall
cpu usage looks much better (~60% instead of ~72%)

25.56% [kernel] [k] gq_rx_skb
9.90% [kernel] [k] napi_reuse_skb
7.39% [kernel] [k] dev_gro_receive
6.78% [kernel] [k] memcpy
6.53% [kernel] [k] skb_release_data
6.39% [kernel] [k] tcp_gro_receive
5.71% [kernel] [k] ipv6_gro_receive
4.35% [kernel] [k] napi_gro_frags
4.34% [kernel] [k] skb_gro_receive
3.50% [kernel] [k] gq_pool_get
3.08% [kernel] [k] gq_rx_napi_handler
2.35% [kernel] [k] tcp6_gro_receive
2.06% [kernel] [k] gq_rx_prep_buffers
1.32% [kernel] [k] csum_partial
0.93% [kernel] [k] csum_ipv6_magic
0.65% [kernel] [k] net_rx_action

Many thanks to Robin Murphy for his feedback and ideas to make this patch
much better !
