Petr Machata says: ==================== Add a new Qdisc, ETS The IEEE standard 802.1Qaz (and 802.1Q-2014) specifies four principal transmission selection algorithms: strict priority, credit-based shaper, ETS (bandwidth sharing), and vendor-specific. All these have their corresponding knobs in DCB. But DCB does not have interfaces to configure RED and ECN, unlike Qdiscs. In the Qdisc land, strict priority is implemented by PRIO. Credit-based transmission selection algorithm can then be modeled by having e.g. TBF or CBS Qdisc below some of the PRIO bands. ETS would then be modeled by placing a DRR Qdisc under the last PRIO band. The problem with this approach is that DRR on its own, as well as the combination of PRIO and DRR, are tricky to configure and tricky to offload to 802.1Qaz-compliant hardware. This is due to several reasons: - As any classful Qdisc, DRR supports adding classifiers to decide in which class to enqueue packets. Unlike PRIO, there's however no fallback in the form of priomap. A way to achieve classification based on packet priority is e.g. like this: # tc filter add dev swp1 root handle 1: \ basic match 'meta(priority eq 0)' flowid 1:10 Expressing the priomap in this manner however forces drivers to deep dive into the classifier block to parse the individual rules. A possible solution would be to extend the classes with a "defmap" a la split / defmap mechanism of CBQ, and introduce this as a last resort classification. However, unlike priomap, this doesn't have the guarantee of covering all priorities. Traffic whose priority is not covered is dropped by DRR as unclassified. But ASICs tend to implement dropping in the ACL block, not in scheduling pipelines. The need to treat these configurations correctly (if only to decide to not offload at all) complicates a driver. It's not clear how to retrofit priomap with all its benefits to DRR without changing it beyond recognition. - The interplay between PRIO and DRR is also causing problems. 802.1Qaz has all ETS TCs as a last resort. Switch ASICs that support ETS at all are likely to handle ETS traffic this way as well. However, the Linux model is more generic, allowing the DRR block in any band. Drivers would need to be careful to handle this case correctly, otherwise the offloaded model might not match the slow-path one. In a similar vein, PRIO and DRR need to agree on the list of priorities assigned to DRR. This is doubly problematic--the user needs to take care to keep the two in sync, and the driver needs to watch for any holes in DRR coverage and treat the traffic correctly, as discussed above. Note that at the time that DRR Qdisc is added, it has no classes, and thus any priorities assigned to that PRIO band are not covered. Thus this case is surprisingly rather common, and needs to be handled gracefully by the driver. - Similarly due to DRR flexibility, when a Qdisc (such as RED) is attached below it, it is not immediately clear which TC the class represents. This is unlike PRIO with its straightforward classid scheme. When DRR is combined with PRIO, the relationship between classes and TCs gets even more murky. This is a problem for users as well: the TC mapping is rather important for (devlink) shared buffer configuration and (ethtool) counters. So instead, this patch set introduces a new Qdisc, which is based on 802.1Qaz wording. It is PRIO-like in how it is configured, meaning one needs to specify how many bands there are, how many are strict and how many are ETS, quanta for the latter, and priomap. The new Qdisc operates like the PRIO / DRR combo would when configured as per the standard. The strict classes, if any, are tried for traffic first. When there's no traffic in any of the strict queues, the ETS ones (if any) are treated in the same way as in DRR. The chosen interface makes the overall system both reasonably easy to configure, and reasonably easy to offload. The extra code to support ETS in mlxsw (which already supports PRIO) is about 150 lines, of which perhaps 20 lines is bona fide new business logic. Credit-based shaping transmission selection algorithm can be configured by adding a CBS Qdisc under one of the strict bands (e.g. TBF can be used to a similar effect as well). As a non-work-conserving Qdisc, CBS can't be hooked under the ETS bands. This is detected and handled identically to DRR Qdisc at runtime. Note that offloading CBS is not subject of this patchset. The patchset proceeds in four stages: - Patches #1-#3 are cleanups. - Patches #4 and #5 contain the new Qdisc. - Patches #6 and #7 update mlxsw to offload the new Qdisc. - Patches #8-#10 add selftests for ETS. Examples: - Add a Qdisc with 6 bands, 3 strict and 3 ETS with 45%-30%-25% weights: # tc qdisc add dev swp1 root handle 1: \ ets strict 3 quanta 4500 3000 2500 priomap 0 1 1 1 2 3 4 5 # tc qdisc sh dev swp1 qdisc ets 1: root refcnt 2 bands 6 strict 3 quanta 4500 3000 2500 priomap 0 1 1 1 2 3 4 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 - Tweak quantum of one of the classes of the previous Qdisc: # tc class ch dev swp1 classid 1:4 ets quantum 1000 # tc qdisc sh dev swp1 qdisc ets 1: root refcnt 2 bands 6 strict 3 quanta 1000 3000 2500 priomap 0 1 1 1 2 3 4 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 # tc class ch dev swp1 classid 1:3 ets quantum 1000 Error: Strict bands do not have a configurable quantum. - Purely strict Qdisc with 1:1 mapping between priorities and TCs: # tc qdisc add dev swp1 root handle 1: \ ets strict 8 priomap 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 # tc qdisc sh dev swp1 qdisc ets 1: root refcnt 2 bands 8 strict 8 priomap 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 - Use "bands" to specify number of bands explicitly. Underspecified bands are implicitly ETS and their quantum is taken from MTU. The following thus gives each band the same weight: # tc qdisc add dev swp1 root handle 1: \ ets bands 8 priomap 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 # tc qdisc sh dev swp1 qdisc ets 1: root refcnt 2 bands 8 quanta 1514 1514 1514 1514 1514 1514 1514 1514 priomap 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 v2: - This addresses points raised by David Miller. - Patch #4: - sch_ets.c: Add a comment with description of the Qdisc and the dequeuing algorithm. - Kconfig: Add a high-level description to the help blurb. v1: - No changes, first upstream submission after RFC. v3 (internal): - This addresses review from Jiri Pirko. - Patch #3: - Rename to _HR_ instead of to _HIERARCHY_. - Patch #4: - pkt_sched.h: Keep all the TCA_ETS_ constants in one enum. - pkt_sched.h: Rename TCA_ETS_BANDS to _NBANDS, _STRICT to _NSTRICT, _BAND_QUANTUM to _QUANTA_BAND and _PMAP_BAND to _PRIOMAP_BAND. - sch_ets.c: Update to reflect the above changes.

This tests the newly-added ETS Qdisc. It runs two to three streams of traffic, each with a different priority. ETS Qdisc is supposed to allocate bandwidth according to the DRR algorithm and given weights. After running the traffic for a while, counters are compared for each stream to check that the expected ratio is in fact observed. In order for the DRR process to kick in, a traffic bottleneck must exist in the first place. In slow path, such bottleneck can be implemented by wrapping the ETS Qdisc inside a TBF or other shaper. This might however make the configuration unoffloadable. Instead, on HW datapath, the bottleneck would be set up by lowering port speed and configuring shared buffer suitably. Therefore the test is structured as a core component that implements the testing, with two wrapper scripts that implement the details of slow path resp. fast path configuration.

Julian Wiedmann authored
The current code that dumps the RXIP/VIPA/IPATO addresses via sysfs first checks whether the buffer still provides sufficient space to hold another formatted address. But the maximum length of an formatted IPv4 address is 15 characters, not 12. So we underestimate the max required length and if the buffer was previously filled to _just_ the right level, a formatted address can end up being truncated. Revamp these code paths to use the _actually_ required length of the formatted IP address, and while at it suppress a gratuitous newline. Also use scnprintf() to format the output. In case of a truncation, this would allow us to return the number of characters that were actually written. Signed-off-by: Julian Wiedmann <jwi@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

card->wait_q is shared by different users, for different wake-up conditions. qeth_irq() can potentially trigger multiple of these conditions: 1) A change to channel->irq_pending, which qeth_send_control_data() is waiting for. 2) A change to card->state, which qeth_clear_channel() and qeth_halt_channel() are waiting for. As qeth_irq() does only a single wake_up(), we might miss to wake up a second eligible waiter. Luckily all waiters are guarded with a timeout, so this situation should recover on its own eventually. To make things work robustly, add an additional wake_up() for changes to channel->state. And extract a helper that updates channel->irq_pending along with the needed wake_up().

...as the comment above the function states. The switch to Initialising at the start of the function is somewhat bogus as the toolstack will have set that initial state anyway. To behave correctly, a backend should switch to InitWait once it has set up all xenstore values that may be required by a initialising frontend. This patch calls backend_switch_state() to make the transition at the appropriate point. NOTE: backend_switch_state() ignores errors from xenbus_switch_state() and so this patch removes an error path from netback_probe(). This means a failure to change state at this stage (in the absence of other failures) will leave the device instantiated. This is highly unlikley to happen as a failure to change state would indicate a failure to write to xenstore, and that will trigger other error paths. Also, a 'stuck' device can still be cleaned up using 'unbind' in any case. Signed-off-by: Paul Durrant <pdurrant@amazon.com> Acked-by: Wei Liu <wei.liu@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: David S.
