The main purpose of this patch is adding a way of checking per-queue stats.
It's useful to debug performance problems on multiqueue environment.
$ ethtool -S ens10
NIC statistics:
rx_queue_0_packets: 2090408
rx_queue_0_bytes: 3164825094
rx_queue_1_packets: 2082531
rx_queue_1_bytes: 3152932314
tx_queue_0_packets: 2770841
tx_queue_0_bytes: 4194955474
tx_queue_1_packets: 3084697
tx_queue_1_bytes: 4670196372
This change converts existing per-cpu stats structure into per-queue one.
This should not impact on performance since each queue counter is not
updated concurrently by multiple cpus.
Performance numbers:
- Guest has 2 vcpus and 2 queues
- Guest runs netserver
- Host runs 100-flow super_netperf

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
