2009-10-05ipv4: fib table algorithm performance improvementStephen Hemminger
The FIB algorithim for IPV4 is set at compile time, but kernel goes through the overhead of function call indirection at runtime. Save some cycles by turning the indirect calls to direct calls to either hash or trie code. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-08-28fib_trie: resize reworkJens Låås
Here is rework and cleanup of the resize function. Some bugs we had. We were using ->parent when we should use node_parent(). Also we used ->parent which is not assigned by inflate in inflate loop. Also a fix to set thresholds to power 2 to fit halve and double strategy. max_resize is renamed to max_work which better indicates it's function. Reaching max_work is not an error, so warning is removed. max_work only limits amount of work done per resize. (limits CPU-usage, outstanding memory etc). The clean-up makes it relatively easy to add fixed sized root-nodes if we would like to decrease the memory pressure on routers with large routing tables and dynamic routing. If we'll need that... Its been tested with 280k routes. Work done together with Robert Olsson. Signed-off-by: Jens Låås <jens.laas@its.uu.se> Signed-off-by: Robert Olsson <robert.olsson@its.uu.se> Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-07-20ipv4: Fix inflate_threshold_root automaticallyJarek Poplawski
During large updates there could be triggered warnings like: "Fix inflate_threshold_root. Now=25 size=11 bits" if inflate() of the root node isn't finished in 10 loops. It should be much rarer now, after changing the threshold from 15 to 25, and a temporary problem, so this patch tries to handle it automatically using a fix variable to increase by one inflate threshold for next root resizes (up to the 35 limit, max fix = 10). The fix variable is decreased when root's inflate() finishes below 7 loops (even if some other, smaller table/ trie is updated -- for simplicity the fix variable is global for now).

2009-07-20ipv4: Use synchronize_rcu() during trie_rebalance()Jarek Poplawski
During trie_rebalance() we free memory after resizing with call_rcu(), but large updates, especially with PREEMPT_NONE configs, can cause memory stresses, so this patch calls synchronize_rcu() in tnode_free_flush() after each sync_pages to guarantee such freeing (especially before resizing the root node). The value of sync_pages = 128 is based on Pawel Staszewski's tests as the lowest which doesn't hinder updating times. (For testing purposes there was a sysfs module parameter to change it on demand, but it's removed until we're sure it could be really useful.) The patch is based on suggestions by: Paul E.

It should be also mentioned that because of non-atomic changes during resizing/rebalancing the current lookup algorithm can miss valid leaves so it's additional argument to shorten these activities even at a cost of a minimally longer searching. This patch restores values before the patch "[IPV4]: fib_trie root node settings", commit: 965ffea43d4ebe8cd7b9fee78d651268dd7d23c5 from v2.6.22. Pawel's report: <blockquote> I dont see any big change of (cpu load or faster/slower routing/propagating routes from bgpd or something else) - in avg there is from 2% to 3% more of CPU load i dont know why but it is - i change from "preempt" to "no preempt" 3 times and check this my "mpstat -P ALL 1 30" always avg cpu load was from 2 to 3% more compared to "no preempt" [...] cat /proc/net/fib_triestat Basic info: size of leaf: 20 bytes, size of tnode: 36 bytes.

So, until memory handling is improved or added parameters for changing this individually, this patch resets to safer defaults.

2009-06-18ipv4: Fix fib_trie rebalancing, part 2Jarek Poplawski
My previous patch, which explicitly delays freeing of tnodes by adding them to the list to flush them after the update is finished, isn't strict enough. It treats exceptionally tnodes without parent, assuming they are newly created, so "invisible" for the read side yet. But the top tnode doesn't have parent as well, so we have to exclude all exceptions (at least until a better way is found). Additionally we need to move rcu assignment of this node before flushing, so the return type of the trie_rebalance() function is changed.

2009-06-15ipv4: Fix fib_trie rebalancingJarek Poplawski
While doing trie_rebalance(): resize(), inflate(), halve() RCU free tnodes before updating their parents. It depends on RCU delaying the real destruction, but if RCU readers start after call_rcu() and before parent update they could access freed memory. It is currently prevented with preempt_disable() on the update side, but it's not safe, except maybe classic RCU, plus it conflicts with memory allocations with GFP_KERNEL flag used from these functions. This patch explicitly delays freeing of tnodes by adding them to the list, which is flushed after the update is finished.

2008-04-10IPV4: fib_trie use vmalloc for large tnodesStephen Hemminger
Use vmalloc rather than alloc_pages to avoid wasting memory. The problem is that tnode structure has a power of 2 sized array, plus a header. So the current code wastes almost half the memory allocated because it always needs the next bigger size to hold that small header. This is similar to an earlier patch by Eric, but instead of a list and lock, I used a workqueue to handle the fact that vfree can't be done in interrupt context.

This converts dumping (and flushing) of large route tables form O(N^2) to O(N). If the route dump took multiple pages then the dump routine gets called again. The old code kept track of location by counter, the new code instead uses the last key. This is a really big win ( 0.3 sec vs 12 sec) for big route tables. One side effect is that if the table changes during the dump, then the last key will not be found, and we will return -EBUSY.
