As an unwanted side effect of the performance improvements in
24f0bfbad57b9, epair interfaces stop forwarding traffic on higher
load levels when running on multi-core systems.
This happens due to a race condition in the logic that decides when to
place work in the task queue(s) responsible for processing the content
of ring buffers.
In order to fix this, a field named state is added to the epair_queue
structure. This field is used by the affected functions to signal each
other that something happened in the underlying ring buffers that might
require work to be scheduled in task queue(s), replacing the existing
logic, which relied on checking if ring buffers are empty or not.
epair_menq() does:
- set BIT_MBUF_QUEUED
- queue mbuf
- if testandset BIT_QUEUE_TASK:
enqueue task
epair_tx_start_deferred() does:
- swap ring buffers
- process mbufs
- clear BIT_QUEUE_TASK
- if testandclear BIT_MBUF_QUEUED
enqueue task

FreeBSD Source:
This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory.
FreeBSD is an operating system used to power modern servers, desktops, and embedded platforms. A large community has continually developed it for more than thirty years. Its advanced networking, security, and storage features have made FreeBSD the platform of choice for many of the busiest web sites and most pervasive embedded networking and storage devices.

The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree. See build(7), config(8), FreeBSD handbook on building userland, and Handbook for kernels for more information, including setting make(1) variables.
