2013-12-17net: Add utility functions to clear rxhashTom Herbert
In several places 'skb->rxhash = 0' is being done to clear the rxhash value in an skb. This does not clear l4_rxhash which could still be set so that the rxhash wouldn't be recalculated on subsequent call to skb_get_rxhash. This patch adds an explict function to clear all the rxhash related information in the skb properly. skb_clear_hash_if_not_l4 clears the rxhash only if it is not marked as l4_rxhash. Fixed up places where 'skb->rxhash = 0' was being called. Signed-off-by: Tom Herbert <therbert@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2013-12-17tcp: refine TSO splitsEric Dumazet
While investigating performance problems on small RPC workloads, I noticed linux TCP stack was always splitting the last TSO skb into two parts (skbs). One being a multiple of MSS, and a small one with the Push flag. This split is done even if TCP_NODELAY is set, or if no small packet is in flight. Example with request/response of 4K/4K IP A > B: . ack 68432 win 2783 <nop,nop,timestamp 6524593 6525001> IP A > B: . 65537:68433(2896) ack 69632 win 2783 <nop,nop,timestamp 6524593 6525001> IP A > B: P 68433:69633(1200) ack 69632 win 2783 <nop,nop,timestamp 6524593 6525001> IP B > A: . ack 68433 win 2768 <nop,nop,timestamp 6525001 6524593> IP B > A: . 69632:72528(2896) ack 69633 win 2768 <nop,nop,timestamp 6525001 6524593> IP B > A: P 72528:73728(1200) ack 69633 win 2768 <nop,nop,timestamp 6525001 6524593> IP A > B: . ack 72528 win 2783 <nop,nop,timestamp 6524593 6525001> IP A > B: . 69633:72529(2896) ack 73728 win 2783 <nop,nop,timestamp 6524593 6525001> IP A > B: P 72529:73729(1200) ack 73728 win 2783 <nop,nop,timestamp 6524593 6525001> We can avoid this split by including the Nagle tests at the right place. Note : If some NIC had trouble sending TSO packets with a partial last segment, we would have hit the problem in GRO/forwarding workload already. tcp_minshall_update() is moved to tcp_output.c and is updated as we might feed a TSO packet with a partial last segment. This patch tremendously improves performance, as the traffic now looks like : IP A > B: . ack 98304 win 2783 <nop,nop,timestamp 6834277 6834685> IP A > B: P 94209:98305(4096) ack 98304 win 2783 <nop,nop,timestamp 6834277 6834685> IP B > A: . ack 98305 win 2768 <nop,nop,timestamp 6834686 6834277> IP B > A: P 98304:102400(4096) ack 98305 win 2768 <nop,nop,timestamp 6834686 6834277> IP A > B: . ack 102400 win 2783 <nop,nop,timestamp 6834279 6834686> IP A > B: P 98305:102401(4096) ack 102400 win 2783 <nop,nop,timestamp 6834279 6834686> IP B > A: . ack 102401 win 2768 <nop,nop,timestamp 6834687 6834279> IP B > A: P 102400:106496(4096) ack 102401 win 2768 <nop,nop,timestamp 6834687 6834279> IP A > B: . ack 106496 win 2783 <nop,nop,timestamp 6834280 6834687> IP A > B: P 102401:106497(4096) ack 106496 win 2783 <nop,nop,timestamp 6834280 6834687> IP B > A: . ack 106497 win 2768 <nop,nop,timestamp 6834688 6834280> IP B > A: P 106496:110592(4096) ack 106497 win 2768 <nop,nop,timestamp 6834688 6834280> Before : lpq83:~# nstat >/dev/null;perf stat ./super_netperf 200 -t TCP_RR -H lpq84 -l 20 -- -r 4K,4K 280774 Performance counter stats for './super_netperf 200 -t TCP_RR -H lpq84 -l 20 -- -r 4K,4K': 205719.049006 task-clock # 9.278 CPUs utilized 8,449,968 context-switches # 0.041 M/sec 1,935,997 CPU-migrations # 0.009 M/sec 160,541 page-faults # 0.780 K/sec 548,478,722,290 cycles # 2.666 GHz [83.20%] 455,240,670,857 stalled-cycles-frontend # 83.00% frontend cycles idle [83.48%] 272,881,454,275 stalled-cycles-backend # 49.75% backend cycles idle [66.73%] 166,091,460,030 instructions # 0.30 insns per cycle # 2.74 stalled cycles per insn [83.39%] 29,150,229,399 branches # 141.699 M/sec [83.30%] 1,943,814,026 branch-misses # 6.67% of all branches [83.32%] 22.173517844 seconds time elapsed lpq83:~# nstat | egrep "IpOutRequests|IpExtOutOctets" IpOutRequests 16851063 0.0 IpExtOutOctets 23878580777 0.0 After patch : lpq83:~# nstat >/dev/null;perf stat ./super_netperf 200 -t TCP_RR -H lpq84 -l 20 -- -r 4K,4K 280877 Performance counter stats for './super_netperf 200 -t TCP_RR -H lpq84 -l 20 -- -r 4K,4K': 107496.071918 task-clock # 4.847 CPUs utilized 5,635,458 context-switches # 0.052 M/sec 1,374,707 CPU-migrations # 0.013 M/sec 160,920 page-faults # 0.001 M/sec 281,500,010,924 cycles # 2.619 GHz [83.28%] 228,865,069,307 stalled-cycles-frontend # 81.30% frontend cycles idle [83.38%] 142,462,742,658 stalled-cycles-backend # 50.61% backend cycles idle [66.81%] 95,227,712,566 instructions # 0.34 insns per cycle # 2.40 stalled cycles per insn [83.43%] 16,209,868,171 branches # 150.795 M/sec [83.20%] 874,252,952 branch-misses # 5.39% of all branches [83.37%] 22.175821286 seconds time elapsed lpq83:~# nstat | egrep "IpOutRequests|IpExtOutOctets" IpOutRequests 11239428 0.0 IpExtOutOctets 23595191035 0.0 Indeed, the occupancy of tx skbs (IpExtOutOctets/IpOutRequests) is higher : 2099 instead of 1417, thus helping GRO to be more efficient when using FQ packet scheduler.

2013-12-16mac80211: add pre-RCU-sync sta removal driver operationJohannes Berg
Currently, mac80211 allows drivers to keep RCU-protected station references that are cleared when the station is removed from the driver and consequently needs to synchronize twice, once before removing the station from the driver (so it can guarantee that the station is no longer used in TX towards the driver) and once after the station is removed from the driver. Add a new pre-RCU-synchronisation station removal operation to the API to allow drivers to clear/invalidate their RCU-protected station pointers before the RCU synchronisation. This will allow removing the second synchronisation by changing the driver API so that the driver may no longer assume a valid RCU-protected pointer after sta_remove/sta_state returns. The alternative to this would be to synchronize_rcu() in all the drivers that currently rely on this behaviour (only iwlmvm) but that would defeat the purpose.

2013-12-13net: reorder struct netns_ct for better cache-line usageJesper Dangaard Brouer
Reorder struct netns_ct so that atomic_t "count" changes don't slowdown users of read mostly fields. This is based on Eric Dumazet's proposed patch: "netfilter: conntrack: remove the central spinlock" http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/268758/focus=47306 The tricky part of cache-aligning this structure, that it is getting inlined in struct net (include/net/net_namespace.h), thus changes to other netns_xxx structures affects our alignment. Eric's original patch contained an ambiguity on 32-bit regarding alignment in struct net. This patch also takes 32-bit into account, and in case of changed (struct net) alignment sysctl_xxx entries have been ordered according to how often they are accessed.

2013-12-11ipv6: router reachability probingJiri Benc
RFC 4191 states in 3.5: When a host avoids using any non-reachable router X and instead sends a data packet to another router Y, and the host would have used router X if router X were reachable, then the host SHOULD probe each such router X's reachability by sending a single Neighbor Solicitation to that router's address. A host MUST NOT probe a router's reachability in the absence of useful traffic that the host would have sent to the router if it were reachable. In any case, these probes MUST be rate-limited to no more than one per minute per router. Currently, when the neighbour corresponding to a router falls into NUD_FAILED, it's never considered again. Introduce a new rt6_nud_state value, RT6_NUD_FAIL_PROBE, which suggests the route should not be used but should be probed with a single NS. The probe is ratelimited by the existing code. To better distinguish meanings of the failure values, rename RT6_NUD_FAIL_SOFT to RT6_NUD_FAIL_DO_RR.

2013-12-10sctp: properly latch and use autoclose value from sock to associationNeil Horman
Currently, sctp associations latch a sockets autoclose value to an association at association init time, subject to capping constraints from the max_autoclose sysctl value. This leads to an odd situation where an application may set a socket level autoclose timeout, but sliently sctp will limit the autoclose timeout to something less than that. Fix this by modifying the autoclose setsockopt function to check the limit, cap it and warn the user via syslog that the timeout is capped. This will allow getsockopt to return valid autoclose timeout values that reflect what subsequent associations actually use. While were at it, also elimintate the assoc->autoclose variable, it duplicates whats in the timeout array, which leads to multiple sources for the same information, that may differ (as the former isn't subject to any capping). This gives us the timeout information in a canonical place and saves some space in the association structure as well.

2013-12-06tcp: auto corkingEric Dumazet
With the introduction of TCP Small Queues, TSO auto sizing, and TCP pacing, we can implement Automatic Corking in the kernel, to help applications doing small write()/sendmsg() to TCP sockets. Idea is to change tcp_push() to check if the current skb payload is under skb optimal size (a multiple of MSS bytes) If under 'size_goal', and at least one packet is still in Qdisc or NIC TX queues, set the TCP Small Queue Throttled bit, so that the push will be delayed up to TX completion time. This delay might allow the application to coalesce more bytes in the skb in following write()/sendmsg()/sendfile() system calls. The exact duration of the delay is depending on the dynamics of the system, and might be zero if no packet for this flow is actually held in Qdisc or NIC TX ring. Using FQ/pacing is a way to increase the probability of autocorking being triggered. Add a new sysctl (/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_autocorking) to control this feature and default it to 1 (enabled) Add a new SNMP counter : nstat -a | grep TcpExtTCPAutoCorking This counter is incremented every time we detected skb was under used and its flush was deferred. Tested: Interesting effects when using line buffered commands under ssh. Excellent performance results in term of cpu usage and total throughput. lpq83:~# echo 1 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_autocorking lpq83:~# perf stat ./super_netperf 4 -t TCP_STREAM -H lpq84 -- -m 128 9410.39 Performance counter stats for './super_netperf 4 -t TCP_STREAM -H lpq84 -- -m 128': 35209.439626 task-clock # 2.901 CPUs utilized 2,294 context-switches # 0.065 K/sec 101 CPU-migrations # 0.003 K/sec 4,079 page-faults # 0.116 K/sec 97,923,241,298 cycles # 2.781 GHz [83.31%] 51,832,908,236 stalled-cycles-frontend # 52.93% frontend cycles idle [83.30%] 25,697,986,603 stalled-cycles-backend # 26.24% backend cycles idle [66.70%] 102,225,978,536 instructions # 1.04 insns per cycle # 0.51 stalled cycles per insn [83.38%] 18,657,696,819 branches # 529.906 M/sec [83.29%] 91,679,646 branch-misses # 0.49% of all branches [83.40%] 12.136204899 seconds time elapsed lpq83:~# echo 0 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_autocorking lpq83:~# perf stat ./super_netperf 4 -t TCP_STREAM -H lpq84 -- -m 128 6624.89 Performance counter stats for './super_netperf 4 -t TCP_STREAM -H lpq84 -- -m 128': 40045.864494 task-clock # 3.301 CPUs utilized 171 context-switches # 0.004 K/sec 53 CPU-migrations # 0.001 K/sec 4,080 page-faults # 0.102 K/sec 111,340,458,645 cycles # 2.780 GHz [83.34%] 61,778,039,277 stalled-cycles-frontend # 55.49% frontend cycles idle [83.31%] 29,295,522,759 stalled-cycles-backend # 26.31% backend cycles idle [66.67%] 108,654,349,355 instructions # 0.98 insns per cycle # 0.57 stalled cycles per insn [83.34%] 19,552,170,748 branches # 488.244 M/sec [83.34%] 157,875,417 branch-misses # 0.81% of all branches [83.34%] 12.130267788 seconds time elapsed Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-12-06xfrm: Namespacify xfrm state/policy locksFan Du
By semantics, xfrm layer is fully name space aware, so will the locks, e.g. xfrm_state/pocliy_lock. Ensure exclusive access into state/policy link list for different name space with one global lock is not right in terms of semantics aspect at first place, as they are indeed mutually independent with each other, but also more seriously causes scalability problem. One practical scenario is on a Open Network Stack, more than hundreds of lxc tenants acts as routers within one host, a global xfrm_state/policy_lock becomes the bottleneck. But onces those locks are decoupled in a per-namespace fashion, locks contend is just with in specific name space scope, without causing additional SPD/SAD access delay for other name space. Also this patch improve scalability while as without changing original xfrm behavior. Signed-off-by: Fan Du <fan.du@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: Steffen Klassert <steffen.klassert@secunet.com>

2013-12-05tcp_memcontrol: Cleanup/fix cg_proto->memory_pressure handling.Eric W. Biederman
kill memcg_tcp_enter_memory_pressure. The only function of memcg_tcp_enter_memory_pressure was to reduce deal with the unnecessary abstraction that was tcp_memcontrol. Now that struct tcp_memcontrol is gone remove this unnecessary function, the unnecessary function pointer, and modify sk_enter_memory_pressure to set this field directly, just as sk_leave_memory_pressure cleas this field directly. This fixes a small bug I intruduced when killing struct tcp_memcontrol that caused memcg_tcp_enter_memory_pressure to never be called and thus failed to ever set cg_proto->memory_pressure. Remove the cg_proto enter_memory_pressure function as it now serves no useful purpose. Don't test cg_proto->memory_presser in sk_leave_memory_pressure before clearing it. The test was originally there to ensure that the pointer was non-NULL. Now that cg_proto is not a pointer the pointer does not matter. Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

2013-12-05xen-netback: fix fragment detection in checksum setupPaul Durrant
The code to detect fragments in checksum_setup() was missing for IPv4 and too eager for IPv6. (It transpires that Windows seems to send IPv6 packets with a fragment header even if they are not a fragment - i.e. offset is zero, and M bit is not set). This patch also incorporates a fix to callers of maybe_pull_tail() where skb->network_header was being erroneously added to the length argument.

2013-12-05Bluetooth: Simplify l2cap_chan initialization for LE CoCJohan Hedberg
The values in l2cap_chan that are used for actually transmitting data only need to be initialized right after we've received an L2CAP Connect Request or just before we send one. The only thing that we need to initialize though bind() and connect() is the chan->mode value. This way all other initializations can be done in the l2cap_le_flowctl_init function (which now becomes private to l2cap_core.c) and the l2cap_le_flowctl_start function can be completely removed. Also, since the l2cap_sock_init function initializes the imtu and omtu to adequate values these do not need to be part of l2cap_le_flowctl_init.
