9 years agonet: Save TX flow hash in sock and set in skbuf on xmit
Tom Herbert [Wed, 2 Jul 2014 04:32:17 +0000 (21:32 -0700)]
net: Save TX flow hash in sock and set in skbuf on xmit

For a connected socket we can precompute the flow hash for setting
in skb->hash on output. This is a performance advantage over
calculating the skb->hash for every packet on the connection. The
computation is done using the common hash algorithm to be consistent
with computations done for packets of the connection in other states
where thers is no socket (e.g. time-wait, syn-recv, syn-cookies).

This patch adds sk_txhash to the sock structure. inet_set_txhash and
ip6_set_txhash functions are added which are called from points in
TCP and UDP where socket moves to established state.

skb_set_hash_from_sk is a function which sets skb->hash from the
sock txhash value. This is called in UDP and TCP transmit path when
transmitting within the context of a socket.

Tested: ran super_netperf with 200 TCP_RR streams over a vxlan
interface (in this case skb_get_hash called on every TX packet to
create a UDP source port).

Before fix:

  95.02% CPU utilization
  154/256/505 90/95/99% latencies
  1.13042e+06 tps

  Time in functions:
    0.28% skb_flow_dissect
    0.21% __skb_get_hash

After fix:

  94.95% CPU utilization
  156/254/485 90/95/99% latencies
  1.15447e+06

  Neither __skb_get_hash nor skb_flow_dissect appear in perf

tcp: switch snt_synack back to measuring transmit time of first SYNACK

Always store in snt_synack the time at which the server received the
first client SYN and attempted to send the first SYNACK.

Recent commit aa27fc501 ("tcp: tcp_v[46]_conn_request: fix snt_synack
initialization") resolved an inconsistency between IPv4 and IPv6 in
the initialization of snt_synack. This commit brings back the idea
from 843f4a55e (tcp: use tcp_v4_send_synack on first SYN-ACK), which
was going for the original behavior of snt_synack from the commit

sample from 3WHS for the passive open side") in v3.1.

In addition to being simpler (and probably a tiny bit faster),
unconditionally storing the time of the first SYNACK attempt has been
useful because it allows calculating a performance metric quantifying
how long it took to establish a passive TCP connection.

Currently, we calculate jitter via sctp_jitter() function first,
and then add its result to the current RTO for the new timeout:

  TMO = RTO + (RAND() % RTO) - (RTO / 2)
              `------------------------^-=> sctp_jitter()

Instead, we can just simplify all this by directly calculating:

  TMO = (RTO / 2) + (RAND() % RTO)

With the help of prandom_u32_max(), we don't need to open code
our own global PRNG, but can instead just make use of the per
CPU implementation of prandom with better quality numbers. Also,
we can now spare us the conditional for divide by zero check
since no div or mod operation needs to be used. Note that
prandom_u32_max() won't emit the same result as a mod operation,
but we really don't care here as we only want to have a random
number scaled into RTO interval.

Note, exponential RTO backoff is handeled elsewhere, namely in
sctp_do_8_2_transport_strike().

Patch 1 refactors be_cmd_get_profile_config() routine to reduce
code duplication by using the be_cmd_notify_wait() routine, instead
of using a separate variant of the code for MBOX and MCCQ.

Patch 2 introduces the required FW-cmd code in the PF to query
RSS support on a VF. This is in preparation for patch 3.

Patch 3 adds support for the PF driver to re-configure the resource
distribution in FW based on the number of VFs enabled by the user. When
the user is not interested in enabling VFs, all resources of a port are

each VF gets a better share of the resources and can now enable RSS (if
the interface supports it.)

Patch 4 is a minor fix to re-enable HW vlan filtering as soon as the number
of vlans programmed is within the HW limit.

Shannon adds the Base Address High and Low to the admin queue structure
to simplify the logic in the configuration routines.  Also adds code to
clear all queues and interrupts to help clean up after a PXE or other
early boot activity.

Kevin fixes mask assignment value since -1 cannot be used for unsigned
integer types.

Mitch fixes an issue where in some circumstances the reply from the PF
would come back before we were able to properly modify the admin queue
pending and required flags.  This would mess up the flags and put the
driver in an indeterminate state, so fix this by simply setting the flags
before sending the request to the admin queue.  Also changes the branding
string for i40evf to reduce confusion and to match up with our other
marketing materials.

Kamil adds a new variable defining admin send queue (ASQ) command write
back timeout to allow for dynamic modification of this timeout.

Anjali fix a bug in the flow director filter replay logic, so that we
call a replay after a sideband reset correctly.

Jesse adds code to initialize all members of the context descriptor to
prevent possible stale data.

Christopher fixes i40e to prevent writing to reserved bits, since the
queue index is only 0-127.

Jacob removes the unneeded header export.h from the i40e PTP code.
Fixes ixgbe PTP code where the PPS signal was not correct, as it
generates a one half HZ clock signal, it only generates one level
change per second.  To generate a full clock, we need two level changes

9 years agopktgen: RCU-ify "if_list" to remove lock in next_to_run()
Jesper Dangaard Brouer [Thu, 26 Jun 2014 11:16:59 +0000 (13:16 +0200)]
pktgen: RCU-ify "if_list" to remove lock in next_to_run()

The if_lock()/if_unlock() in next_to_run() adds a significant
overhead, because its called for every packet in busy loop of
pktgen_thread_worker().  (Thomas Graf originally pointed me
at this lock problem).

Removing these two "LOCK" operations should in theory save us approx
16ns (8ns x 2), as illustrated below we do save 16ns when removing
the locks and introducing RCU protection.

Performance data with CLONE_SKB==100000, TX-size=512, rx-usecs=30:
 (single CPU performance, ixgbe 10Gbit/s, E5-2630)
 * Prev   : 5684009 pps --> 175.93ns (1/5684009*10^9)
 * RCU-fix: 6272204 pps --> 159.43ns (1/6272204*10^9)
 * Diff   : +588195 pps --> -16.50ns

To understand this RCU patch, I describe the pktgen thread model
below.

In pktgen there is several kernel threads, but there is only one CPU
running each kernel thread.  Communication with the kernel threads are
done through some thread control flags.  This allow the thread to
change data structures at a know synchronization point, see main
thread func pktgen_thread_worker().

Userspace changes are communicated through proc-file writes.  There
are three types of changes, general control changes "pgctrl"
(func:pgctrl_write), thread changes "kpktgend_X"
(func:pktgen_thread_write), and interface config changes "etcX@N"
(func:pktgen_if_write).

Userspace "pgctrl" and "thread" changes are synchronized via the mutex
pktgen_thread_lock, thus only a single userspace instance can run.
The mutex is taken while the packet generator is running, by pgctrl
"start".  Thus e.g. "add_device" cannot be invoked when pktgen is
running/started.

All "pgctrl" and all "thread" changes, except thread "add_device",
communicate via the thread control flags.  The main problem is the
exception "add_device", that modifies threads "if_list" directly.

Fortunately "add_device" cannot be invoked while pktgen is running.
But there exists a race between "rem_device_all" and "add_device"
(which normally don't occur, because "rem_device_all" waits 125ms
before returning). Background'ing "rem_device_all" and running
"add_device" immediately allow the race to occur.

The race affects the threads (list of devices) "if_list".  The if_lock
is used for protecting this "if_list".  Other readers are given
lock-free access to the list under RCU read sections.

Note, interface config changes (via proc) can occur while pktgen is
running, which worries me a bit.  I'm assuming proc_remove() takes
appropriate locks, to assure no writers exists after proc_remove()
finish.

I've been running a script exercising the race condition (leading me
to fix the proc_remove order), without any issues.  The script also
exercises concurrent proc writes, while the interface config is
getting removed.

pktgen: document tuning for max NIC performance

Using pktgen I'm seeing the ixgbe driver "push-back", due TX ring
running full.  Thus, the TX ring is artificially limiting pktgen.
(Diagnose via "ethtool -S", look for "tx_restart_queue" or "tx_busy"
counters.)

Using ixgbe, the real reason behind the TX ring running full, is due
to TX ring not being cleaned up fast enough. The ixgbe driver combines
TX+RX ring cleanups, and the cleanup interval is affected by the
ethtool --coalesce setting of parameter "rx-usecs".

Do not increase the default NIC TX ring buffer or default cleanup
interval.  Instead simply document that pktgen needs special NIC
tuning for maximum packet per sec performance.

Performance results with pktgen with clone_skb=100000.
TX ring size 512 (default), adjusting "rx-usecs":
 (Single CPU performance, E5-2630, ixgbe)

 - 5502510 pps - rx-usecs: 50 (irqs: 21527)

TX ring size adjusting (ethtool -G), "rx-usecs==1" (default):
 - 3935002 pps - tx-size:  512
 - 5354401 pps - tx-size:  768

 - 5356779 pps - tx-size: 2048
 - 5353438 pps - tx-size: 4096

Notice after commit 6f25cd47d (pktgen: fix xmit test for BQL enabled
devices) pktgen uses netif_xmit_frozen_or_drv_stopped() and ignores
the BQL "stack" pause (QUEUE_STATE_STACK_XOFF) flag.  This allow us to put
more pressure on the TX ring buffers.

It is the ixgbe_maybe_stop_tx() call that stops the transmits, and
pktgen respecting this in the call to netif_xmit_frozen_or_drv_stopped(txq).

i40evf: set flags before sending message

In some circumstances, the firmware could beat us to the punch, and the
reply from the PF would come back before we were able to properly modify
the aq_pending and aq_required flags. This would mess up the flags and
put the driver in an indeterminate state, much like Schrödinger's cat.
However, unlike the cat, the driver is definitely dead.

To fix this, simply set the flags before sending the request to the AQ.
This way, it won't matter if the interrupt comes back too soon.

Merge branch 'tcp_conn_request_unification'

Octavian Purdila says:

====================
tcp: remove code duplication in tcp_v[46]_conn_request

This patch series unifies the TCPv4 and TCPv6 connection request flow
in a single new function (tcp_conn_request).

The first 3 patches are small cleanups and fixes found during the code
merge process.

The next patches add new methods in tcp_request_sock_ops to abstract
the IPv4/IPv6 operations and keep the TCP connection request flow
common.

To identify potential performance issues this patch has been tested
by measuring the connection per second rate with nginx and a httperf
like client (to allow for concurrent connection requests - 256 CC were
used during testing) using the loopback interface. A dual-core i5 Ivy
Bridge processor was used and each process was bounded to a different
core to make results consistent.

Results for IPv4, unit is connections per second, higher is better, 20
measurements have been collected:

before after
min 27917 27962
max 28262 28366

Changes since v1:

 * add benchmarking datapoints

 * fix a few issues in the last patch (IPv6 related)

we can move the if (want_cookie) block out of the if (!isn) block.

Moving security_inet_conn_request() has a couple of side effects:
missing inet_rsk(req)->ecn_ok update and the req->cookie_ts
update. However, neither SELinux nor Smack security hooks seems to
