net/mlx4_en: Improve XDP xmit function
Several performance improvements in XDP TX datapath, including: - Ring a single doorbell for XDP TX ring per NAPI budget, instead of doing it per a lower threshold (was 8). This includes removing the flow of immediate doorbell ringing in case of a full TX ring. - Compiler branch predictor hints. - Calculate values in compile time rather than in runtime. Performance tests: Tested on ConnectX3Pro, Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2680 v3 @ 2.50GHz Single queue no-RSS optimization ON. XDP_TX packet rate: ------------------------------------- | Before | After | Gain | IPv4 | 10.3 Mpps | 12.0 Mpps | 17% | IPv6 | 10.3 Mpps | 12.0 Mpps | 17% | ------------------------------------- Signed-off-by: Tariq Toukan <tariqt@mellanox.com> Reviewed-by: Saeed Mahameed <saeedm@mellanox.com> Cc: kernel-team@fb.com Cc: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
