From e63d281871efff5e411275ce2ba1509314c75898 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jon Maloy Date: Fri, 12 Jul 2024 15:04:49 -0400 Subject: tcp: leverage support of SO_PEEK_OFF socket option when available >From linux-6.9.0 the kernel will contain commit 05ea491641d3 ("tcp: add support for SO_PEEK_OFF socket option"). This new feature makes is possible to call recv_msg(MSG_PEEK) and make it start reading data from a given offset set by the SO_PEEK_OFF socket option. This way, we can avoid repeated reading of already read bytes of a received message, hence saving read cycles when forwarding TCP messages in the host->name space direction. In this commit, we add functionality to leverage this feature when available, while we fall back to the previous behavior when not. Measurements with iperf3 shows that throughput increases with 15-20 percent in the host->namespace direction when this feature is used.
