* net: make default TX queue length a defined constantJesper Dangaard Brouer2016-11-071-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The default TX queue length of Ethernet devices have been a magic constant of 1000, ever since the initial git import. Looking back in historical trees[1][2] the value used to be 100, with the same comment "Ethernet wants good queues". The commit[3] that changed this from 100 to 1000 didn't describe why, but from conversations with Robert Olsson it seems that it was changed when Ethernet devices went from 100Mbit/s to 1Gbit/s, because the link speed increased x10 the queue size were also adjusted. This value later caused much heartache for the bufferbloat community. This patch merely moves the value into a defined constant.

* net: sched: convert qdisc linked list to hashtableJiri Kosina2016-08-101-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Convert the per-device linked list into a hashtable. The primary motivation for this change is that currently, we're not tracking all the qdiscs in hierarchy (e.g. excluding default qdiscs), as the lookup performed over the linked list by qdisc_match_from_root() is rather expensive. The ultimate goal is to get rid of hidden qdiscs completely, which will bring much more determinism in user experience.

* net_sched: remove generic throttled managementEric Dumazet2016-06-101-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | __QDISC_STATE_THROTTLED bit manipulation is rather expensive for HTB and few others. I already removed it for sch_fq in commit f2600cf02b5b ("net: sched: avoid costly atomic operation in fq_dequeue()") and so far nobody complained. When one ore more packets are stuck in one or more throttled HTB class, a htb dequeue() performs two atomic operations to clear/set __QDISC_STATE_THROTTLED bit, while root qdisc lock is held. Removing this pair of atomic operations bring me a 8 % performance increase on 200 TCP_RR tests, in presence of throttled classes. This patch has no side effect, since nothing actually uses disc_is_throttled() anymore. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* net_sched: avoid too many hrtimer_start() callsEric Dumazet2016-05-241-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I found a serious performance bug in packet schedulers using hrtimers. sch_htb and sch_fq are definitely impacted by this problem. We constantly rearm high resolution timers if some packets are throttled in one (or more) class, and other packets are flying through qdisc on another (non throttled) class. hrtimer_start() does not have the mod_timer() trick of doing nothing if expires value does not change : if (timer_pending(timer) && timer->expires == expires) return 1; This issue is particularly visible when multiple cpus can queue/dequeue packets on the same qdisc, as hrtimer code has to lock a remote base. I used following fix : 1) Change htb to use qdisc_watchdog_schedule_ns() instead of open-coding it. 2) Cache watchdog prior expiration. hrtimer might provide this, but I prefer to not rely on some hrtimer internal.

* net: sched: consolidate tc_classify{,_compat}Daniel Borkmann2015-08-271-3/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For classifiers getting invoked via tc_classify(), we always need an extra function call into tc_classify_compat(), as both are being exported as symbols and tc_classify() itself doesn't do much except handling of reclassifications when tp->classify() returned with TC_ACT_RECLASSIFY. CBQ and ATM are the only qdiscs that directly call into tc_classify_compat(), all others use tc_classify(). When tc actions are being configured out in the kernel, tc_classify() effectively does nothing besides delegating. We could spare this layer and consolidate both functions. pktgen on single CPU constantly pushing skbs directly into the netif_receive_skb() path with a dummy classifier on ingress qdisc attached, improves slightly from 22.3Mpps to 23.1Mpps.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | tc code implicitly considers skb->protocol even in case of accelerated vlan paths and expects vlan protocol type here. However, on rx path, if the vlan header was already stripped, skb->protocol contains value of next header. Similar situation is on tx path. So for skbs that use skb->vlan_tci for tagging, use skb->vlan_proto instead.

* net: sched: avoid costly atomic operation in fq_dequeue()Eric Dumazet2014-10-061-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Standard qdisc API to setup a timer implies an atomic operation on every packet dequeue : qdisc_unthrottled() It turns out this is not really needed for FQ, as FQ has no concept of global qdisc throttling, being a qdisc handling many different flows, some of them can be throttled, while others are not. Fix is straightforward : add a 'bool throttle' to qdisc_watchdog_schedule_ns(), and remove calls to qdisc_unthrottled() in sch_fq.

* qdisc: validate skb without holding lockEric Dumazet2014-10-031-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Validation of skb can be pretty expensive : GSO segmentation and/or checksum computations. We can do this without holding qdisc lock, so that other cpus can queue additional packets. Trick is that requeued packets were already validated, so we carry a boolean so that sch_direct_xmit() can validate a fresh skb list, or directly use an old one. Tested on 40Gb NIC (8 TX queues) and 200 concurrent flows, 48 threads host. Turning TSO on or off had no effect on throughput, only few more cpu cycles. Lock contention on qdisc lock disappeared.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The DRR scheduler requires that items on the active list are work conserving, i.e. do not hold on to skbs for throttling purposes, etc. Attaching e.g. tbf renders DRR useless because all other classes on the active list are delayed as well.

* qdisc: allow setting default queuing disciplinestephen hemminger2013-08-311-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | By default, the pfifo_fast queue discipline has been used by default for all devices. But we have better choices now. This patch allow setting the default queueing discipline with sysctl. This allows easy use of better queueing disciplines on all devices without having to use tc qdisc scripts. It is intended to allow an easy path for distributions to make fq_codel or sfq the default qdisc. This patch also makes pfifo_fast more of a first class qdisc, since it is now possible to manually override the default and explicitly use pfifo_fast. The behavior for systems who do not use the sysctl is unchanged, they still get pfifo_fast Also removes leftover random # in sysctl net core.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | One of my test machine got a deadlock during "tc" sessions, adding/deleting classes & filters, using traffic estimators. After some analysis, I believe we have a potential use after free case in est_timer() : spin_lock(e->stats_lock); << HERE >> read_lock(&est_lock); if (e->bstats == NULL) << TEST >> goto skip; Test is done a bit late, because after estimator is killed, and before rcu grace period elapsed, we might already have freed/reuse memory where e->stats_locks points to (some qdisc->q.lock) A possible fix is to respect a rcu grace period at Qdisc dismantle time. On 64bit, sizeof(struct Qdisc) is exactly 192 bytes. Adding 16 bytes to it (for struct rcu_head) is a problem because it might change performance, given QDISC_ALIGNTO is 32 bytes. This is why I also change QDISC_ALIGNTO to 64 bytes, to satisfy most current alignment requirements. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* net: Avoid enqueuing skb for default qdiscsKrishna Kumar2009-08-061-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | dev_queue_xmit enqueue's a skb and calls qdisc_run which dequeue's the skb and xmits it. In most cases, the skb that is enqueue'd is the same one that is dequeue'd (unless the queue gets stopped or multiple cpu's write to the same queue and ends in a race with qdisc_run). For default qdiscs, we can remove the redundant enqueue/dequeue and simply xmit the skb since the default qdisc is work-conserving. The patch uses a new flag - TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS to identify the default fast queue. The controversial part of the patch is incrementing qlen when a skb is requeued - this is to avoid checks like the second line below: + } else if ((q->flags & TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS) && !qdisc_qlen(q) && >> !q->gso_skb && + !test_and_set_bit(__QDISC_STATE_RUNNING, &q->state)) { Results of a 2 hour testing for multiple netperf sessions (1, 2, 4, 8, 12 sessions on a 4 cpu system-X).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change PSCHED_SHIFT from 10 to 6 to increase schedulers time resolution. This will increase 16x a number of (internal) ticks per nanosecond, and is needed to improve accuracy of schedulers based on rate tables, like HTB, TBF or CBQ, with rates above 100Mbit. It is assumed this change is safe for 32bit accounting of time diffs up to 2 minutes, which should be enough for common use (extremely low rate values may overflow, so get inaccurate instead). To make full use of this change an updated iproute2 will be needed. (But using older iproute2 should be safe too.) This change breaks ticks - microseconds similarity, so some minor code fixes might be needed. It is also planned to change naming adequately eg. to PSCHED_TICKS2NS() etc. in the near future.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This effectively "flips the switch" by making the core networking and multiqueue-aware drivers use the new TX multiqueue structures. Non-multiqueue drivers need no changes. The interfaces they use such as netif_stop_queue() degenerate into an operation on TX queue zero. So everything "just works" for them. Code that really wants to do "X" to all TX queues now invokes a routine that does so, such as netif_tx_wake_all_queues(), netif_tx_stop_all_queues(), etc. pktgen and netpoll required a little bit more surgery than the others. In particular the pktgen changes, whilst functional, could be largely improved. The initial check in pktgen_xmit() will sometimes check the wrong queue, which is mostly harmless. The thing to do is probably to invoke fill_packet() earlier. The bulk of the netpoll changes is to make the code operate solely on the TX queue indicated by by the SKB queue mapping. Setting of the SKB queue mapping is entirely confined inside of net/core/dev.c:dev_pick_tx(). If we end up needing any kind of special semantics (drops, for example) it will be implemented here. Finally, we now have a "real_num_tx_queues" which is where the driver indicates how many TX queues are actually active. With IGB changes from Jeff Kirsher. Signed-off-by: David S.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The behaviour of NET_CLS_POLICE for TC_POLICE_RECLASSIFY was to return it to the qdisc, which could handle it internally or ignore it. With NET_CLS_ACT however, tc_classify starts over at the first classifier and never returns it to the qdisc. This makes it impossible to support qdisc-internal reclassification, which in turn makes it impossible to remove the old NET_CLS_POLICE code without breaking compatibility since we have two qdiscs (CBQ and ATM) that support this. This patch adds a tc_classify_compat function that handles reclassification the old way and changes CBQ and ATM to use it. This again is of course not fully backwards compatible with the previous NET_CLS_ACT behaviour. Unfortunately there is no way to fully maintain compatibility *and* support qdisc internal reclassification with NET_CLS_ACT, but this seems like the better choice over keeping the two incompatible options around forever.

| | | | | | | | | Since we're now holding the rtnl during the entire dump operation, we can remove qdisc_tree_lock, whose only purpose is to protect dump callbacks from concurrent changes to the qdisc tree.
