* net_sched: long word align struct qdisc_skb_cb dataEric Dumazet2011-02-231-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | netem_skb_cb() does : return (struct netem_skb_cb *)qdisc_skb_cb(skb)->data; Unfortunatly struct qdisc_skb_cb data is not long word aligned, so access to psched_time_t time_to_send uses a non aligned access.

* net_sched: accurate bytes/packets stats/ratesEric Dumazet2011-01-201-3/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | HTB takes into account skb is segmented in stats updates. Generalize this to all schedulers. They should use qdisc_bstats_update() helper instead of manipulating bstats.bytes and bstats.packets Add bstats_update() helper too for classes that use gnet_stats_basic_packed fields. Note : Right now, TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS shortcurt can be taken only if no stab is setup on qdisc. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The flow for this is, dev_queue_xmit() dev_pick_tx() skb_tx_hash() => hash using real_num_tx_queues skb_set_queue_mapping() ... qdisc_enqueue_root() => enqueue skb on txq from hash ... dev->real_num_tx_queues -= n ... sch_direct_xmit() dev_hard_start_xmit() ndo_start_xmit(skb,dev) => skb queue set with old hash skbs are enqueued on the qdisc with skb->queue_mapping set 0 < queue_mappings < real_num_tx_queues. When the driver decreases real_num_tx_queues skb's may be dequeued from the qdisc with a queue_mapping greater then real_num_tx_queues. This fixes a case in ixgbe where this was occurring with DCB and FCoE. Because the driver is using queue_mapping to map skbs to tx descriptor rings we can potentially map skbs to rings that no longer exist.

* | net: add additional lock to qdisc to increase throughputEric Dumazet2010-06-021-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When many cpus compete for sending frames on a given qdisc, the qdisc spinlock suffers from very high contention. The cpu owning __QDISC_STATE_RUNNING bit has same priority to acquire the lock, and cannot dequeue packets fast enough, since it must wait for this lock for each dequeued packet. One solution to this problem is to force all cpus spinning on a second lock before trying to get the main lock, when/if they see __QDISC_STATE_RUNNING already set. The owning cpu then compete with at most one other cpu for the main lock, allowing for higher dequeueing rate. Based on a previous patch from Alexander Duyck. I added the heuristic to avoid the atomic in fast path, and put the new lock far away from the cache line used by the dequeue worker. Also try to release the busylock lock as late as possible. Tests with following script gave a boost from ~50.000 pps to ~600.000 pps on a dual quad core machine (E5450 @3.00GHz), tg3 driver.

* gen_estimator: deadlock fixEric Dumazet2010-04-011-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* pkt_sched: Fix tx queue selection in tc_modify_qdiscJarek Poplawski2009-09-151-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After the recent mq change there is the new select_queue qdisc class method used in tc_modify_qdisc, but it works OK only for direct child qdiscs of mq qdisc. Grandchildren always get the first tx queue, which would give wrong qdisc_root etc. results (e.g. for sch_htb as child of sch_prio). This patch fixes it by using parent's dev_queue for such grandchildren qdiscs. The select_queue method's return type is changed BTW.

* net_sched: fix estimator lock selection for mq child qdiscsPatrick McHardy2009-09-091-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When new child qdiscs are attached to the mq qdisc, they are actually attached as root qdiscs to the device queues. The lock selection for new estimators incorrectly picks the root lock of the existing and to be replaced qdisc, which results in a use-after-free once the old qdisc has been destroyed. Mark mq qdisc instances with a new flag and treat qdiscs attached to mq as children similar to regular root qdiscs. Additionally prevent estimators from being attached to the mq qdisc itself since it only updates its byte and packet counters during dumps.

* net_sched: add classful multiqueue dummy schedulerDavid S. Miller2009-09-061-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds a classful dummy scheduler which can be used as root qdisc for multiqueue devices and exposes each device queue as a child class. This allows to address queues individually and graft them similar to regular classes. Additionally it presents an accumulated view of the statistics of all real root qdiscs in the dummy root. Two new callbacks are added to the qdisc_ops and qdisc_class_ops: - cl_ops->select_queue selects the tx queue number for new child classes. - qdisc_ops->attach() overrides root qdisc device grafting to attach non-shared qdiscs to the queues.

* | net: Avoid enqueuing skb for default qdiscsKrishna Kumar2009-08-061-2/+13
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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).

David Miller <davem@davemloft.net> spotted a serious bug in the first version of this patch. Signed-off-by: Jarek Poplawski <jarkao2@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* net_sched: Add qdisc __NET_XMIT_STOLEN flagJarek Poplawski2008-08-041-1/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> noticed: "The other problem that affects all qdiscs supporting actions is TC_ACT_QUEUED/TC_ACT_STOLEN getting mapped to NET_XMIT_SUCCESS even though the packet is not queued, corrupting upper qdiscs' qlen counters." and later explained: "The reason why it translates it at all seems to be to not increase the drops counter. Within a single qdisc this could be avoided by other means easily, upper qdiscs would still increase the counter when we return anything besides NET_XMIT_SUCCESS though. This means we need a new NET_XMIT return value to indicate this to the upper qdiscs. So I'd suggest to introduce NET_XMIT_STOLEN, return that to upper qdiscs and translate it to NET_XMIT_SUCCESS in dev_queue_xmit, similar to NET_XMIT_BYPASS." David Miller <davem@davemloft.net> noticed: "Maybe these NET_XMIT_* values being passed around should be a set of bits. They could be composed of base meanings, combined with specific attributes. So you could say "NET_XMIT_DROP | __NET_XMIT_NO_DROP_COUNT" The attributes get masked out by the top-level ->enqueue() caller, such that the base meanings are the only thing that make their way up into the stack. If it's only about communication within the qdisc tree, let's simply code it that way." This patch is trying to realize these ideas.
