2021-05-13Migrate PacketBuffer to use pkg/bufferTing-Yu Wang
Benchmark iperf3: Before After native->runsc 5.14 5.01 (Gbps) runsc->native 4.15 4.07 (Gbps) It did introduce overhead, mainly at the bridge between pkg/buffer and VectorisedView, the ExtractVV method. Once endpoints start migrating away from VV, this overhead will be gone. Updates #2404 PiperOrigin-RevId: 373651666
2020-09-22pkg/buffer: Reorganize internal structure to allow dynamic sizes.Ting-Yu Wang
This change changes `buffer.data` into a `[]byte`, from `[bufferSize]byte`. In exchange, each `buffer` is now grouped together to reduce the number of allocation. Plus, `View` now holds an embeded list of `buffer` (via `pool`) to support the happy path which the number of buffer is small. Expect no extra allocation for the happy path. It is to enable the use case for PacketBuffer, which * each `View` is small (way less than `defaultBufferSize`), and * needs to dynamically transfer ownership of `[]byte` to `View`. (to allow gradual migration) PiperOrigin-RevId: 333197252
