In this mode the moderation timer will restart upon new completion (CQE) generation rather than upon interrupt generation. The outcome is that for bursty traffic the period timer will never expire and thus only the moderation frames counter will dictate interrupt generation, thus the interrupt rate will be relative to the incoming packets size. If the burst seizes for "moderation period" time then an interrupt will be issued immediately. CQE based moderation is off by default and can be controlled via ethtool set_priv_flags. Performance tested on ConnectX4-Lx 50G. Less packet loss in netperf UDP and TCP tests, with no bw degradation, for both single and multi streams, with message sizes of 64, 1024, 1472 and 32768 byte.

Implement set_maxrate ndo. Use the rate index from the hardware table to attach to channel SQ/TXQ. In case of failure to configure new rate, the queue remains with unlimited rate. We save the configuration on priv structure and apply it each time Send Queues are being reinitialized (after open/close) operations.

Configuring and managing HW rate limit tables. The HW holds a table of rate limits, each rate is associated with an index in that table. Later a Send Queue uses this index to set the rate limit. Multiple Send Queues can have the same rate limit, which is represented by a single entry in this table. Even though a rate can be shared, each queue is being rate limited independently of others. The SW shadow of this table holds the rate itself, the index in the HW table and the refcount (number of queues) working with this rate. The exported functions are mlx5_rl_add_rate and mlx5_rl_remove_rate. Number of different rates and their values are derived from HW capabilities.

Sathya Perla says: ==================== be2net: patch set Hi Dave, pls consider commiting the following patches to the net-next tree. Thanks! Patch 1 replaces the be_max_eqs() macro with two new macros called be_max_nic_eqs() and be_max_func_eqs() to clear confusion in that part of the code. Patch 2 adds support to configure asymmetric number of rx/tx queues via ethtool set-channels option. Patch 3 disables EVB when VFs are not enabled on a BE3 SR-IOV config to avoid the broadcast echo problem. Patch 4 updates copyright markings in be2net src files Patch 5 updates the be2net maintainers' list ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

On SR-IOV profiles, when the user connects a Linux Bridge or OVS to a BE3 vport, they suffer the "broadcast/multicast echo" problem. BE3 EVB echoes broadcast and multicast packets back to PF's vport confusing the Linux bridge. BE3 relies on the src-mac addr being programmed on the interface to avoid sending back an echo of a broadcast or multicast packet on a vPort. When a Linux bridge is connected to a BE3, the mac-addr of the VM behind the bridge doesn't get configured on the vPort and so echo cancellation doesn't work. This patch worksaround this problem by disabling the EVB initially and re-enabling it *only* when SR-IOV is enabled by the user. For the driver fix to work, the BE3 FW version must be >= 11.1.84.0.

be2net so far supported creation of RX/TX queues only in pairs. On configs where rx and tx queue counts are different, creation of only the lesser number of queues has been supported. This patch now allows a combination of RX/TX-only channels along with combined channels. N TX-queues and M RX-queues can be created with the following cmds: ethtool -L ethX combined N rx M-N (when N < M) ethtool -L ethX combined M tx N-M (when M < N) Setting both RX-only and TX-only channels is still not supported. It is mandatory to create atleast one combined channel. Signed-off-by: Sathya Perla <sathya.perla@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The EQs available on a function are shared between NIC and RoCE. The be_max_eqs() macro was so far being used to refer to the max number of EQs available for NIC. This has caused some confusion in the code. To fix this confusion this patch introduces a new macro called be_max_nic_eqs() to refer to the max number of EQs avialable for NIC only and renames be_max_eqs() to be_max_func_eqs().

Merge tag 'rxrpc-rewrite-20160622-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs David Howells says: ==================== rxrpc: Get rid of conn bundle and transport structs Here's the next part of the AF_RXRPC rewrite. The primary purpose of this set is to get rid of the rxrpc_conn_bundle and rxrpc_transport structs. This simplifies things for future development of the connection handling. To this end, the following significant changes are made: (1) The rxrpc_connection struct is given pointers to the local and peer endpoints, inside the rxrpc_conn_parameters struct. Pointers to the transport's copy of these pointers are then redirected to the connection struct. (2) Exclusive connection handling is fixed. Exclusive connections should do just one call and then be retired. They are used in security negotiations and, I believe, the idea is to avoid reuse of negotiated security contexts. The current code is doing a single connection per socket and doing all the calls over that. With this change it gets a new connection for each call made. (3) A new sendmsg() control message marker is added to make individual calls operate over exclusive connections. This should be used in future in preference to the sockopt that marks a socket as "exclusive connection". (4) IDs for client connections initiated by a machine are now allocated from a global pool using the IDR facility and are unique across all client connections, no matter their destination. The IDR facility is then used to look up a connection on the connection ID alone. Other parameters are then verified afterwards. Note that the IDR facility may use a lot of memory if the IDs it holds are widely scattered. Given this, in a future commit, client connections will be retired if they are more than a certain distance from the last ID allocated. The client epoch is advanced by 1 each time the client ID counter wraps. Connections outside the current epoch will also be retired in a future commit. (5) The connection bundle concept is removed and the client connection tree is moved into the local endpoint. The queue for waiting for a call channel is moved to the rxrpc_connection struct as there can only be one connection for any particular key going to any particular peer now. (6) The rxrpc_transport struct is removed and the service connection tree is moved into the peer struct. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Eric Dumazet says: ==================== net_sched: bulk dequeue and deferred drops First patch adds an additional parameter to ->enqueue() qdisc method so that drops can be done outside of critical section (after locks are released). Then fq_codel can have a small optimization to reduce number of cache lines misses during a drop event (possibly accumulating hundreds of packets to be freed). A small htb change exports the backlog in class dumps. Final patch adds bulk dequeue to qdiscs that were lacking this feature. This series brings a nice qdisc performance increase (more than 80 % in some cases). ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

When qdisc bulk dequeue was added in linux-3.18 (commit 5772e9a3 "qdisc: bulk dequeue support for qdiscs with TCQ_F_ONETXQUEUE"), it was constrained to some specific qdiscs. With some extra care, we can extend this to all qdiscs, so that typical traffic shaping solutions can benefit from small batches (8 packets in this patch). For example, HTB is often used on some multi queue device. And bonding/team are multi queue devices... Idea is to bulk-dequeue packets mapping to the same transmit queue. This brings between 35 and 80 % performance increase in HTB setup under pressure on a bonding setup : 1) NUMA node contention : 610,000 pps -> 1,110,000 pps 2) No node contention : 1,380,000 pps -> 1,930,000 pps Now we should work to add batches on the enqueue() side ;) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: John Fastabend <john.r.fastabend@intel.com> Cc: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <brouer@redhat.com> Cc: Hannes Frederic Sowa <hannes@stressinduktion.org> Cc: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de> Cc: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net> Acked-by: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <brouer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Qdisc performance suffers when packets are dropped at enqueue() time because drops (kfree_skb()) are done while qdisc lock is held, delaying a dequeue() draining the queue. Nominal throughput can be reduced by 50 % when this happens, at a time we would like the dequeue() to proceed as fast as possible. Even FQ is vulnerable to this problem, while one of FQ goals was to provide some flow isolation. This patch adds a 'struct sk_buff **to_free' parameter to all qdisc->enqueue(), and in qdisc_drop() helper. I measured a performance increase of up to 12 %, but this patch is a prereq so that future batches in enqueue() can fly.

The issue comes when there are multiple threads attempting to use the mailbox facility at the same time. The issue is the for the Virtual Function Driver, the only way to get the Virtual Interface statistics is to issue mailbox commands to ask the firmware for the VI Stats. And, because the VI Stats command can only retrieve a smallish number of stats per mailbox command, we have to issue three mailbox commands in quick succession. When ethtool or netstat command to get interface stats and interface up/down is run in a loop for every 0.1 sec, we observed mailbox collisions. And out of the two commands one would fail with the present code, since we don't queue the second command. To overcome the above issue, added a queue to access the mailbox. Whenever a mailbox command is issued add it to the queue. If its at the head issue the mailbox command, else wait for the existing command to complete. Usually command takes less than a milli-second to complete. Also timeout from the loop, if the command under execution takes long time to run. In reality, the number of mailbox access collisions is going to be very rare since no one runs such abusive script. Signed-off-by: Hariprasad Shenai <hariprasad@chelsio.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
