[PATCH 3.10 20/27] net: mvneta: increase the 64-bit rx/tx stats out of the hot path

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Aug 05 2014 - 14:20:41 EST


3.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: willy tarreau <w@xxxxxx>

commit dc4277dd41a80fd5f29a90412ea04bc3ba54fbf1 upstream.

Better count packets and bytes in the stack and on 32 bit then
accumulate them at the end for once. This saves two memory writes
and two memory barriers per packet. The incoming packet rate was
increased by 4.7% on the Openblocks AX3 thanks to this.
