When accessing objects in the mempool, either the put_bulk and put_objs or the get_success_bulk and get_success_objs statistics counters are likely to be incremented. By adding an alternative set of these counters to the mempool cache structure, accessing the dedicated statistics structure is avoided in the likely cases where these counters are incremented. The trick here is that the cache line holding the mempool cache structure is accessed anyway, in order to access the 'len' or 'flushthresh' fields. Updating some statistics counters in the same cache line has lower performance cost than accessing the statistics counters in the dedicated statistics structure, which resides in another cache line. mempool_perf_autotest with this patch shows the following improvements in rate_persec. The cost of enabling mempool stats (without debug) after this patch: -6.8 % and -6.7 %, respectively without and with cache. v4: * Fix checkpatch warnings: A couple of typos in the patch description. The macro to add to a mempool cache stat variable should not use do {} while (0). Personally, I would tend to disagree with this, but whatever keeps the CI happy. v3: * Don't update the description of the RTE_MEMPOOL_STAT_ADD macro. This change belongs in the first patch of the series. v2: * Move the statistics counters into a stats structure.
