2014-01-21reciprocal_divide: update/correction of the algorithmHannes Frederic Sowa
Jakub Zawadzki noticed that some divisions by reciprocal_divide() were not correct [1][2], which he could also show with BPF code after divisions are transformed into reciprocal_value() for runtime invariance which can be passed to reciprocal_divide() later on; reverse in BPF dump ended up with a different, off-by-one K in some situations. This has been fixed by Eric Dumazet in commit aee636c4809fa5 ("bpf: do not use reciprocal divide"). This follow-up patch improves reciprocal_value() and reciprocal_divide() to work in all cases by using Granlund and Montgomery method, so that also future use is safe and without any non-obvious side-effects. Known problems with the old implementation were that division by 1 always returned 0 and some off-by-ones when the dividend and divisor where very large. This seemed to not be problematic with its current users, as far as we can tell. Eric Dumazet checked for the slab usage, we cannot surely say so in the case of flex_array. Still, in order to fix that, we propose an extension from the original implementation from commit 6a2d7a955d8d resp. [3][4], by using the algorithm proposed in "Division by Invariant Integers Using Multiplication" [5], Torbjörn Granlund and Peter L. Montgomery, that is, pseudocode for q = n/d where q, n, d is in u32 universe: 1) Initialization: int l = ceil(log_2 d) uword m' = floor((1<<32)*((1<<l)-d)/d)+1 int sh_1 = min(l,1) int sh_2 = max(l-1,0) 2) For q = n/d, all uword: uword t = (n*m')>>32 q = (t+((n-t)>>sh_1))>>sh_2 The assembler implementation from Agner Fog [6] also helped a lot while implementing. We have tested the implementation on x86_64, ppc64, i686, s390x; on x86_64/haswell we're still half the latency compared to normal divide. Joint work with Daniel Borkmann.

2013-10-25netem: markov loss model transition fixHagen Paul Pfeifer
The transition from markov state "3 => lost packets within a burst period" to "1 => successfully transmitted packets within a gap period" has no *additional* loss event. The loss already happen for transition from 1 -> 3, this additional loss will make things go wild. E.g. transition probabilities: p13: 10% p31: 100% Expected: Ploss = p13 / (p13 + p31) Ploss = ~9.09% ... but it isn't. Even worse: we get a double loss - each time. So simple don't return true to indicate loss, rather break and return false.

2013-01-29netem: fix delay calculation in rate extensionJohannes Naab
The delay calculation with the rate extension introduces in v3.3 does not properly work, if other packets are still queued for transmission. For the delay calculation to work, both delay types (latency and delay introduces by rate limitation) have to be handled differently. The latency delay for a packet can overlap with the delay of other packets. The delay introduced by the rate however is separate, and can only start, once all other rate-introduced delays finished. Latency delay is from same distribution for each packet, rate delay depends on the packet size. .: latency delay -: rate delay x: additional delay we have to wait since another packet is currently transmitted .....---- Packet 1 .....xx------ Packet 2 .....------ Packet 3 ^^^^^ latency stacks ^^ rate delay doesn't stack ^^ latency stacks -----> time When a packet is enqueued, we first consider the latency delay. If other packets are already queued, we can reduce the latency delay until the last packet in the queue is send, however the latency delay cannot be <0, since this would mean that the rate is overcommitted. The new reference point is the time at which the last packet will be send. To find the time, when the packet should be send, the rate introduces delay has to be added on top of that.

2012-07-16netem: refine early skb orphaningEric Dumazet
netem does an early orphaning of skbs. Doing so breaks TCP Small Queue or any mechanism relying on socket sk_wmem_alloc feedback. Ideally, we should perform this orphaning after the rate module and before the delay module, to mimic what happens on a real link : skb orphaning is indeed normally done at TX completion, before the transit on the link. +-------+ +--------+ +---------------+ +-----------------+ + Qdisc +---> Device +--> TX completion +--> links / hops +-> + + + xmit + + skb orphaning + + propagation + +-------+ +--------+ +---------------+ +-----------------+ < rate limiting > < delay, drops, reorders > If netem is used without delay feature (drops, reorders, rate limiting), then we should avoid early skb orphaning, to keep pressure on sockets as long as packets are still in qdisc queue. Ideally, netem should be refactored to implement delay module as the last stage. Current algorithm merges the two phases (rate limiting + delay) so its not correct.

Commit 10f6dfcfde (Revert "sch_netem: Remove classful functionality") reintroduced classful functionality to netem, but broke basic netem behavior : netem uses an t(ime)fifo queue, and store timestamps in skb->cb[] If qdisc is changed, time constraints are not respected and other qdisc can destroy skb->cb[] and block netem at dequeue time.

2011-12-12netem: add cell concept to simulate special MAC behaviorHagen Paul Pfeifer
This extension can be used to simulate special link layer characteristics. Simulate because packet data is not modified, only the calculation base is changed to delay a packet based on the original packet size and artificial cell information. packet_overhead can be used to simulate a link layer header compression scheme (e.g. set packet_overhead to -20) or with a positive packet_overhead value an additional MAC header can be simulated. It is also possible to "replace" the 14 byte Ethernet header with something else. cell_size and cell_overhead can be used to simulate link layer schemes, based on cells, like some TDMA schemes. Another application area are MAC schemes using a link layer fragmentation with a (small) header each. Cell size is the maximum amount of data bytes within one cell. Cell overhead is an additional variable to change the per-cell-overhead (e.g. 5 byte header per fragment). Example (5 kbit/s, 20 byte per packet overhead, cell-size 100 byte, per cell overhead 5 byte): tc qdisc add dev eth0 root netem rate 5kbit 20 100 5 Signed-off-by: Hagen Paul Pfeifer <hagen@jauu.net> Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de> Acked-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2011-11-30netem: rate extensionHagen Paul Pfeifer
Currently netem is not in the ability to emulate channel bandwidth. Only static delay (and optional random jitter) can be configured. To emulate the channel rate the token bucket filter (sch_tbf) can be used. But TBF has some major emulation flaws. The buffer (token bucket depth/rate) cannot be 0. Also the idea behind TBF is that the credit (token in buckets) fills if no packet is transmitted. So that there is always a "positive" credit for new packets. In real life this behavior contradicts the law of nature where nothing can travel faster as speed of light. E.g.: on an emulated 1000 byte/s link a small IPv4/TCP SYN packet with ~50 byte require ~0.05 seconds - not 0 seconds. Netem is an excellent place to implement a rate limiting feature: static delay is already implemented, tfifo already has time information and the user can skip TBF configuration completely. This patch implement rate feature which can be configured via tc. e.g: tc qdisc add dev eth0 root netem rate 10kbit To emulate a link of 5000byte/s and add an additional static delay of 10ms: tc qdisc add dev eth0 root netem delay 10ms rate 5KBps Note: similar to TBF the rate extension is bounded to the kernel timing system. Depending on the architecture timer granularity, higher rates (e.g. 10mbit/s and higher) tend to transmission bursts. Also note: further queues living in network adaptors; see ethtool(8).

2011-02-24netem: revised correlated loss generatorstephen hemminger
This is a patch originated with Stefano Salsano and Fabio Ludovici. It provides several alternative loss models for use with netem. This patch adds two state machine based loss models.

2011-02-24Revert "sch_netem: Remove classful functionality"stephen hemminger
Many users have wanted the old functionality that was lost to be able to use pfifo as inner qdisc for netem. The reason that netem could not be classful with the older API was because of the limitations of the old dequeue/requeue interface; now that qdisc API has a peek function, there is no longer a problem with using any inner qdisc's.

2011-01-20net_sched: accurate bytes/packets stats/ratesEric Dumazet
In commit 44b8288308ac9d (net_sched: pfifo_head_drop problem), we fixed a problem with pfifo_head drops that incorrectly decreased sch->bstats.bytes and sch->bstats.packets Several qdiscs (CHOKe, SFQ, pfifo_head, ...) are able to drop a previously enqueued packet, and bstats cannot be changed, so bstats/rates are not accurate (over estimated) This patch changes the qdisc_bstats updates to be done at dequeue() time instead of enqueue() time. bstats counters no longer account for dropped frames, and rates are more correct, since enqueue() bursts dont have effect on dequeue() rate.

2011-01-20net_sched: move TCQ_F_THROTTLED flagEric Dumazet
In commit 371121057607e (net: QDISC_STATE_RUNNING dont need atomic bit ops) I moved QDISC_STATE_RUNNING flag to __state container, located in the cache line containing qdisc lock and often dirtied fields. I now move TCQ_F_THROTTLED bit too, so that we let first cache line read mostly, and shared by all cpus. This should speedup HTB/CBQ for example. Not using test_bit()/__clear_bit()/__test_and_set_bit allows to use an "unsigned int" for __state container, reducing by 8 bytes Qdisc size. Introduce helpers to hide implementation details.
