From 2ca200501e3e58a8f7d2497ff9ba5a39f2f47014 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andrew Yourtchenko Date: Wed, 7 Mar 2018 17:35:59 +0100 Subject: vnet: l2-classify: prefetch (n+2, n+3) rather than (n+1, n+2) inside dual loop code The dual loop within the L2 classifier processes the (n, n+1) packets, the prefetching was trying to prefetch (n+1, n+2) - thus half of the prefetches were not used - because the next iteration needs (n+2, n+3).
