crypto-sw-scheduler: crypto-dispatch improvement
Currently sw_scheduler runs interchangeably over queues of one selected
type either ENCRYPT or DECRYPT, then switches the type for the next run.
This runs perfectly when we have elements in both ENCRYPT and DECRYPT
queues, however, this leads to performance degradation when only one
of the queues have elements i.e either all traffic is to be encrypted or
decrypted.
If all operations are encryption, then 50% of the time, the loop exits
without dequeueing.With this change, that dequeueing happens on every
loop. This increases the performance of single mode operation (ecryption
or decryption) by over 15%.
This change was also added in commit https://github.com/FDio/vpp/commit/61cdc0981084f049067626b0123db700035120df
to fix similar performance issue when the crypto-dispatch node is in interrupt
node, however was removed by https://github.com/FDio/vpp/commit/9a9604b09f15691d7c4ddf29afd99a31e7e31eed
which has its own limitations.
Type: improvement
