[ Upstream commit 50aee97d15113b95a68848db1f0cb2a6c09f753a ]
We've observed a 7-12% performance regression in iperf3 UDP ipv4 and ipv6 tests with multiple sockets on Zen3 cpus, which we traced back to commit f0ea27e7bfe1 ("udp: re-score reuseport groups when connected sockets are present"). The failing tests were those that would spawn UDP sockets per-cpu on systems that have a high number of cpus.
Unsurprisingly, it is not caused by the extra re-scoring of the reused socket, but due to the compiler no longer inlining compute_score, once it has the extra call site in udp4_lib_lookup2. This is augmented by the "Safe RET" mitigation for SRSO, needed in our Zen3 cpus.
We could just explicitly inline it, but compute_score() is quite a large function, around 300b. Inlining in two sites would almost double udp4_lib_lookup2, which is a silly thing to do just to workaround a mitigation. Instead, this patch shuffles the code a bit to avoid the multiple calls to compute_score. Since it is a static function used in one spot, the compiler can safely fold it in, as it did before, without increasing the text size.
With this patch applied I ran my original iperf3 testcases. The failing cases all looked like this (ipv4): iperf3 -c 127.0.0.1 --udp -4 -f K -b $R -l 8920 -t 30 -i 5 -P 64 -O 2
where $R is either 1G/10G/0 (max, unlimited). I ran 3 times each. baseline is v6.9-rc3. harmean == harmonic mean; CV == coefficient of variation.

This restores the performance we had before the change above with this benchmark. We obviously don't expect any real impact when mitigations are disabled, but just to be sure it also doesn't regresses:
