skb_page_frag_refill currently permits only order-0 page allocs unless GFP_WAIT is used. Change skb_page_frag_refill to attempt higher-order page allocations whether or not GFP_WAIT is used. If memory cannot be allocated, the allocator will fall back to successively smaller page allocs (down to order-0 page allocs). This change brings skb_page_frag_refill in line with the existing page allocation

The virtio-net device currently uses aligned MTU-sized mergeable receive packet buffers. Network throughput for workloads with large average packet size can be improved by posting larger receive packet buffers. However, due to SKB truesize effects, posting large (e.g, PAGE_SIZE) buffers reduces the throughput of workloads that do not benefit from GRO and have no large inbound packets. This

...to be used only by RPS, AFAICT it seems RPS should not own netdev_rx_queue but rather should own the RPS-specific fields themselves within netdev_rx_queue. If there are no objections, it seems like I could modify netdev_rx_queue and related functionality so that their existence does not depend on CONFIG_RPS, and instead just have CONFIG_RPS control whether or not the RPS-specific attributes/fields are present. Best, Mike

Setting the IF flag can cause an VM exit. So we should avoid touching the IF flag until absolutely necessary. This patch change the way the paravirt arch_local_irq_restore() works by checking the previous flags value and call arch_local_irq_enable() only if the IF flag was set previously. On a 32 vCPUs KVM guest running the AIM7 five-sec workload, the performance increased slightly from 302136.32
