We (Paolo and I) noticed that in the sending path touching an extra cacheline due to cq_cached_prod_lock will impact the performance. After moving the lock from struct xsk_buff_pool to struct xsk_queue, the performance is increased by ~5% which can be observed by xdpsock. An alternative approach [1] can be using atomic_try_cmpxchg() to have the same effect. But unfortunately I don't have evident performance numbers to prove the atomic approach is better than the current patch. The advantage is to save the contention time among multiple xsks sharing the same pool while the disadvantage is losing good maintenance. The full discussion can be found at the following link.
