  • pfsync performance improvements

    Sponsored by Orange Business Services

    psync used to contend on the single PFSYNC_LOCK() severely limiting throughput compared to plain pf without pfsync. This lock was split up, resulting in significant improvements in throughput.

    As a side effect of this work several VIMAGE-related issues in pfsync were resolved, and a basic pfsync test was added.

    The main commit in this project was r341646.

  • TSO fixes

    Sponsored by RootBSD

    pf suffered from extremely bad performance in certain setups (primarily Xen), caused by checksum issues.

    This was fixed in r289316
