lock mac_ifnet_mtx, which protects labels on struct ifnet, unless at least one policy is actively using labels on ifnets. This avoids a global mutex acquire in certain fast paths -- most noticeably ifnet transmit. This was previously invisible by default, as no MAC policies were loaded by default, but recently became visible due to mac_ntpd being enabled by default. gallatin@ reports a reduction in PPS overhead from 300% to 2.2% with this change. We will want to explore further MAC Framework optimisation to reduce overhead further, but this brings things more back into the world of the sane. MFC after: 3 days |
