udp: use a separate rx queue for packet reception
under udp flood the sk_receive_queue spinlock is heavily contended. This patch try to reduce the contention on such lock adding a second receive queue to the udp sockets; recvmsg() looks first in such queue and, only if empty, tries to fetch the data from sk_receive_queue. The latter is spliced into the newly added queue every time the receive path has to acquire the sk_receive_queue lock. The accounting of forward allocated memory is still protected with the sk_receive_queue lock, so udp_rmem_release() needs to acquire both locks when the forward deficit is flushed. On specific scenarios we can end up acquiring and releasing the sk_receive_queue lock multiple times; that will be covered by the next patch Suggested-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
