Intel test robot reported a ~7% regression on TCP_CRR tests
that they bisected to the cited commit.

Indeed, every time a new TCP socket is created or deleted,
the atomic counter net-&gt;count is touched (via get_net(net)
and put_net(net) calls)

So cpus might have to reload a contended cache line in
net_hash_mix(net) calls.

We need to reorder 'struct net' fields to move @hash_mix
in a read mostly cache line.

We move in the first cache line fields that can be
dirtied often.

We probably will have to address in a followup patch
the __randomize_layout that was added in linux-4.13,
since this might break our placement choices.

Fixes: 355b98553789 ("netns: provide pure entropy for net_hash_mix()")

For the sake of tcp_poll(), there are few places where we fetch
sk-&gt;sk_wmem_queued while this field can change from IRQ or other cpu.

We need to add READ_ONCE() annotations, and also make sure write
sides use corresponding WRITE_ONCE() to avoid store-tearing.

sk_wmem_queued_add() helper is added so that we can in
the future convert to ADD_ONCE() or equivalent if/when
available.

sk-&gt;sk_backlog.len can be written by BH handlers, and read
from process contexts in a lockless way.

Note the write side should also use WRITE_ONCE() or a variant.
We need some agreement about the best way to do this.

sock_rcvlowat() or int_sk_rcvlowat() might be called without the socket
lock for example from tcp_poll().

Use READ_ONCE() to document the fact that other cpus might change
sk-&gt;sk_rcvlowat under us and avoid KCSAN splats.

Use WRITE_ONCE() on write sides too.

tcp_memory_pressure is read without holding any lock,
and its value could be changed on other cpus.

Use READ_ONCE() to annotate these lockless reads.

The write side is already using atomic ops.

Use READ_ONCE() to annotate these lockless reads.

The write side is already using atomic ops.

reqsk_queue_empty() is called from inet_csk_listen_poll() while
other cpus might write -&gt;rskq_accept_head value.

Use {READ|WRITE}_ONCE() to avoid compiler tricks
and potential KCSAN splats.
