[ovs-dev] [PATCH v1 15/23] dpif-netdev: Use seq-pool for mark allocation

Gaetan Rivet grive at u256.net
Wed Feb 10 15:34:01 UTC 2021


Use the netdev-offload multithread API to allow multiple thread
allocating marks concurrently.
Initialize only once the pool in a multithread context by using
the ovsthread_once type.
Use the seq-pool module for faster concurrent ID allocation.
