>From what I can tell, calling ->recvfrom when there is no work to do is a normal part of operation. This is the only way svc_recv can tell when there is no more data ready to receive on the transport. Neither the TCP nor the UDP transport implementations have a "starve" metric. The cost of receive starvation accounting is bumping an atomic, which results in extra (IMO unnecessary) bus traffic between CPU sockets, while holding a spin lock.
