2014-11-13tcp: limit GSO packets to half cwndEric Dumazet
In DC world, GSO packets initially cooked by tcp_sendmsg() are usually big, as sk_pacing_rate is high. When network is congested, cwnd can be smaller than the GSO packets found in socket write queue. tcp_write_xmit() splits GSO packets using the available cwnd, and we end up sending a single GSO packet, consuming all available cwnd. With GRO aggregation on the receiver, we might handle a single GRO packet, sending back a single ACK. 1) This single ACK might be lost TLP or RTO are forced to attempt a retransmit. 2) This ACK releases a full cwnd, sender sends another big GSO packet, in a ping pong mode. This behavior does not fill the pipes in the best way, because of scheduling artifacts. Make sure we always have at least two GSO packets in flight. This allows us to safely increase GRO efficiency without risking spurious retransmits.

2014-11-13rhashtable: Drop gfp_flags arg in insert/remove functionsThomas Graf
Reallocation is only required for shrinking and expanding and both rely on a mutex for synchronization and callers of rhashtable_init() are in non atomic context. Therefore, no reason to continue passing allocation hints through the API. Instead, use GFP_KERNEL and add __GFP_NOWARN | __GFP_NORETRY to allow for silent fall back to vzalloc() without the OOM killer jumping in as pointed out by Eric Dumazet and Eric W. Biederman.

2014-11-13rhashtable: Add parent argument to mutex_is_heldHerbert Xu
Currently mutex_is_held can only test locks in the that are global since it takes no arguments. This prevents rhashtable from being used in places where locks are lock, e.g., per-namespace locks.

2014-11-13net: generic dev_disable_lro() stacked device handlingMichal Kubeček
Large receive offloading is known to cause problems if received packets are passed to other host. Therefore the kernel disables it by calling dev_disable_lro() whenever a network device is enslaved in a bridge or forwarding is enabled for it (or globally). For virtual devices we need to disable LRO on the underlying physical device (which is actually receiving the packets). Current dev_disable_lro() code handles this propagation for a vlan (including 802.1ad nested vlan), macvlan or a vlan on top of a macvlan. It doesn't handle other stacked devices and their combinations, in particular propagation from a bond to its slaves which often causes problems in virtualization setups. As we now have generic data structures describing the upper-lower device relationship, dev_disable_lro() can be generalized to disable LRO also for all lower devices (if any) once it is disabled for the device itself. For bonding and teaming devices, it is necessary to disable LRO not only on current slaves at the moment when dev_disable_lro() is called but also on any slave (port) added later. v2: use lower device links for all devices (including vlan and macvlan) Signed-off-by: Michal Kubecek <mkubecek@suse.cz> Acked-by: Veaceslav Falico <vfalico@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2014-11-11net: introduce SO_INCOMING_CPUEric Dumazet
Alternative to RPS/RFS is to use hardware support for multiple queues. Then split a set of million of sockets into worker threads, each one using epoll() to manage events on its own socket pool. Ideally, we want one thread per RX/TX queue/cpu, but we have no way to know after accept() or connect() on which queue/cpu a socket is managed. We normally use one cpu per RX queue (IRQ smp_affinity being properly set), so remembering on socket structure which cpu delivered last packet is enough to solve the problem. After accept(), connect(), or even file descriptor passing around processes, applications can use : int cpu; socklen_t len = sizeof(cpu); getsockopt(fd, SOL_SOCKET, SO_INCOMING_CPU, &cpu, &len); And use this information to put the socket into the right silo for optimal performance, as all networking stack should run on the appropriate cpu, without need to send IPI (RPS/RFS).

sk_mark_napi_id() is used to record for a flow napi id of incoming packets for busypoll sake. We should do this only on established flows, not on listeners. This was 'working' by virtue of the socket cloning, but doing this on SYN packets in unecessary cache line dirtying. Even if we move sk_napi_id in the same cache line than sk_lock, we are working to make SYN processing lockless, so it is desirable to set sk_napi_id only for established flows.

2014-11-10ipv4: Avoid reading user iov twice after raw_probe_proto_optHerbert Xu
Ever since raw_probe_proto_opt was added it had the problem of causing the user iov to be read twice, once during the probe for the protocol header and once again in ip_append_data. This is a potential security problem since it means that whatever we're probing may be invalid. This patch plugs the hole by firstly advancing the iov so we don't read the same spot again, and secondly saving what we read the first time around for use by ip_append_data.

2014-11-10net: gro: add a per device gro flush timerEric Dumazet
Tuning coalescing parameters on NIC can be really hard. Servers can handle both bulk and RPC like traffic, with conflicting goals : bulk flows want as big GRO packets as possible, RPC want minimal latencies. To reach big GRO packets on 10Gbe NIC, one can use : ethtool -C eth0 rx-usecs 4 rx-frames 44 But this penalizes rpc sessions, with an increase of latencies, up to 50% in some cases, as NICs generally do not force an interrupt when a packet with TCP Push flag is received. Some NICs do not have an absolute timer, only a timer rearmed for every incoming packet. This patch uses a different strategy : Let GRO stack decides what do do, based on traffic pattern. Packets with Push flag wont be delayed. Packets without Push flag might be held in GRO engine, if we keep receiving data. This new mechanism is off by default, and shall be enabled by setting /sys/class/net/ethX/gro_flush_timeout to a value in nanosecond. To fully enable this mechanism, drivers should use napi_complete_done() instead of napi_complete(). Tested: Ran 200 netperf TCP_STREAM from A to B (10Gbe mlx4 link, 8 RX queues) Without this feature, we send back about 305,000 ACK per second. GRO aggregation ratio is low (811/305 = 2.65 segments per GRO packet) Setting a timer of 2000 nsec is enough to increase GRO packet sizes and reduce number of ACK packets. (811/19.2 = 42) Receiver performs less calls to upper stacks, less wakes up. This also reduces cpu usage on the sender, as it receives less ACK packets. Note that reducing number of wakes up increases cpu efficiency, but can decrease QPS, as applications wont have the chance to warmup cpu caches doing a partial read of RPC requests/answers if they fit in one skb.

2014-11-05openvswitch: refactor do_output() to move NULL check out of fast pathAndy Zhou
skb_clone() NULL check is implemented in do_output(), as past of the common (fast) path. Refactoring so that NULL check is done in the slow path, immediately after skb_clone() is called. Besides optimization, this change also improves code readability by making the skb_clone() NULL check consistent within OVS datapath module.
