  Since struct rte_eth_dev_data used in the fast path,
making it as cache aligned.

Fixes: af75078fece3 ("first public release")
Fixes: 5b7ba31148a8 ("ethdev: add port ownership")

v2:
- Change the git comments based on Matan's feedback
https://dpdk.org/dev/patchwork/patch/35104/

- Some platform like thunderx + l3fwd showed 1% regression in
the performance with 5b7ba31148a8 ("ethdev: add port ownership")
in one port setup.

- If there are no objection for this change then request to
take it for v18.02 release.

Looks like it is just improvement.
No need the above "fixes" lines (also fix title is not needed as you did).

I think that performance improvement results should be added to the commit log.

Moreover, Did you investigate which fields in rte_eth_dev_data structures are important for performance and should not be in a different cache lines?
Maybe alternative order of the fields in the structure may improve the performance more...

I think, It varies the way we look at it. I don't think, either way it
matters in the commit log.

See below,

I added following under comment section. Do you this want to move git commit
message ? If so, I can send the v3.

 - Some platform like thunderx + l3fwd showed 1% regression in the
 performance with 5b7ba31148a8 ("ethdev: add port ownership") in one port
 setup.

No. That can be separate patch.

Maybe.

I think this commit improves " af75078fece3 ("first public release")"  since there was no intention to aligned rte_eth_dev_data in the first commit created it,
The relevant fields in the first port probably was aligned without any intention(if no , what's about the other ports?).

My suggestion is to just explain why the rte_eth_dev_data structure should be aligned and to align it as improvement, even to backport it to stable branch to improve the early LTS versions for all the ports.

I think it should report the improvement of the new commit you want to add now(not the degradation of the previous commits).
Also to details more (number of ports, number of queues per port, the forward mode, etc).

I think it will be nice(not must :)), even in this commit, to explain the root cause of the performance improvement you saw by the alignment.

In my view it is a bug as it missed to align to cache line from the first release.
and before adding struct rte_vlan_filter_conf vlan_filter_conf and struct rte_eth_dev_owner owner;
it was 128B aligned just by luck for all the ports. and further ("ethdev: add port ownership") changes the 
complete alignment by introducing a container type on top of it.

Do you think, any reason why this fastpath structure SHOULD NOT BE cache aligned ?

I don't think, There is a VERY specific reason for rte_eth_dev_data to cache aligned. it applies to all fastpath functions.
IMO, We are making fastpath structure cache aligned due to,
1) Avoid sharing the element with another cache line
2) Compiler/CPU can access the elements in natural alignment if
the top most element is aligned.

In my setup the degradation(("ethdev: add port ownership") is fixing with this patch.
So I can make it improvement of 1%.

It simple, 1 port, 1 queue l3fwd setup.
sudo ./examples/l3fwd/build/l3fwd -c 0xff00 -- -p 0x1 --config="(0,0,9)"

It is not black and white. it will vary based on global variable alignment etc in the binary.
i.e if apply this patch on any RANDOM change set you will not get a fixed improvement.

Hope this clarifies.

Can be a fix of the first release.

So,  ("ethdev: add port ownership") and  rte_vlan_filter_conf vlan_filter_conf  patch just exposed another issue of performance...
Moreover any fields adding patch to the rte_eth_dev_data structure from the first release didn't took the performance into account..
So, all of them have a bug?

I think that if you want to consider it as a fix it should be for the first commit didn't take into account the performance alignment.
And you should backport it with Cc: stable@dpdk.org.

I agree it should be(actually the datapath fields should be in the same cache line).

I think also it will be good to detail the fields which should be in the same cache line.

Agree.

Yes, you should add the improved scenario to the commit log with the results.
