Florian reported a regression and sent a patch with the following
changelog:
<quote>
There is a noticeable tcp performance regression (loopback or cross-netns),
seen with iperf3 -Z (sendfile mode) when generic retpolines are needed.
With SK_RECLAIM_THRESHOLD checks gone number of calls to enter/leave
memory pressure happen much more often. For TCP indirect calls are
used.
We can't remove the if-set-return short-circuit check in
tcp_enter_memory_pressure because there are callers other than
sk_enter_memory_pressure. Doing a check in the sk wrapper too
reduces the indirect calls enough to recover some performance.
Before,
0.00-60.00 sec 322 GBytes 46.1 Gbits/sec receiver
After:
0.00-60.04 sec 359 GBytes 51.4 Gbits/sec receiver
"iperf3 -c $peer -t 60 -Z -f g", connected via veth in another netns.

It seems we forgot to upstream this indirect call mitigation we
had for years, lets do this instead.
[edumazet] - It seems we forgot to upstream this indirect call

- Changed to INDIRECT_CALL_INET_1() to avoid bots reports.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
