This work is preparing the qdisc layer to support egress lockless qdiscs. If we are running the egress qdisc lockless in the case we overrun the netdev, for whatever reason, the netdev returns a busy error code and the skb is parked on the gso_skb pointer. With many cores all hitting this case at once its possible to have multiple sk_buffs here so we turn gso_skb into a queue. This should be the edge case and if we see this frequently then the netdev/qdisc layer needs to back off. Signed-off-by:

Enable dflt qdisc support for per cpu stats before this patch a dflt qdisc was required to use the global statistics qstats and bstats. This adds a static flags field to qdisc_ops that is propagated into qdisc->flags in qdisc allocate call. This allows the allocation block to completely allocate the qdisc object so we don't have dangling allocations after qdisc init. Signed-off-by:

The per cpu qstats support was added with per cpu bstat support which is currently used by the ingress qdisc. This patch adds a set of helpers needed to make other qdiscs that use qstats per cpu as well. Signed-off-by:

sch_direct_xmit() uses qdisc_qlen as a return value but all call sites of the routine only check if it is zero or not. Simplify the logic so that we don't need to return an actual queue length value. This introduces a case now where sch_direct_xmit would have returned a qlen of zero but now it returns true. However in this case all call sites of sch_direct_xmit will implement a dequeue() and get a null skb and abort. This trades tracking qlen in the hotpath for an extra dequeue operation. Overall this seems to be good for performance. Signed-off-by:

This patch adds a flag for queueing disciplines to indicate the stack does not need to use the qdisc lock to protect operations. This can be used to build lockless scheduling algorithms and improving performance. The flag is checked in the tx path and the qdisc lock is only taken if it is not set. For now use a conditional if statement. Later we could be more aggressive if it proves worthwhile and use a static key or wrap this in a likely(). Also the lockless case drops the TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS logic. The reason for this is synchronizing a qlen counter across threads proves to cost more than doing the enqueue/dequeue operations when tested with pktgen. Signed-off-by:

Currently __qdisc_run calls qdisc_run_end() but does not call qdisc_run_begin(). This makes it hard to track pairs of qdisc_run_{begin,end} across function calls. To simplify reading these code paths this patch moves begin/end calls into qdisc_run(). Signed-off-by: -

Since commit 39e6c820 ("net: solve a NAPI race") napi has been able to be rescheduled within napi_complete_done() even in non-busypoll case, but virtnet_poll() always enabled interrupts before complete, and when napi was rescheduled within napi_complete_done() it did not disable interrupts. This caused more interrupts when event idx is disabled. According to commit cbdadbbf ("virtio_net: fix race in RX VQ processing") we cannot place virtqueue_enable_cb_prepare() after NAPI_STATE_SCHED is cleared, so disable interrupts again if napi_complete_done() returned false. Tested with vhost-user of OVS 2.7 on host, which does not have the event idx feature. * Before patch: $ netperf -t UDP_STREAM -H 192.168.150.253 -l 60 -- -m 1472 MIGRATED UDP STREAM TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET to 192.168.150.253 () port 0 AF_INET Socket Message Elapsed Messages Size Size Time Okay Errors Throughput bytes bytes secs # # 10^6bits/sec 212992 1472 60.00 32763206 0 6430.32 212992 60.00 23384299 4589.56 Interrupts on guest: 9872369 Packets/interrupt: 2.37 * After patch $ netperf -t UDP_STREAM -H 192.168.150.253 -l 60 -- -m 1472 MIGRATED UDP STREAM TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET to 192.168.150.253 () port 0 AF_INET Socket Message Elapsed Messages Size Size Time Okay Errors Throughput bytes bytes secs # # 10^6bits/sec 212992 1472 60.00 32794646 0 6436.49 212992 60.00 32793501 6436.27 Interrupts on guest: 4941299 Packets/interrupt: 6.64 Signed-off-by:

Ursula Braun says: ==================== smc: fixes 2017-12-07 here are some smc-patches. The initial 4 patches are cleanups. Patch 5 gets rid of ib_post_sends in tasklet context to avoid peer drops due to out-of-order receivals.

Ursula Braun authored
According to RFC7609 [1] the CLC proposal message contains an area of unknown length for future growth. Additionally it may contain up to 8 IPv6 prefixes. The current version of the SMC-code does not understand CLC proposal messages using these variable length fields and, thus, is incompatible with SMC implementations in other operating systems. This patch makes sure, SMC understands incoming CLC proposals * with arbitrary length values for future growth * with up to 8 IPv6 prefixes [1] SMC-R Informational RFC: http://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc7609Signed-off-by:

The SMC protocol requires to send a separate consumer cursor update, if it cannot be piggybacked to updates of the producer cursor. When receiving a blocked signal from the sender, this update is sent already in tasklet context. In addition consumer cursor updates are sent after data receival. Sending of cursor updates is controlled by sequence numbers. Assuming receiving stray messages the receiver drops updates with older sequence numbers than an already received cursor update with a higher sequence number. Sending consumer cursor updates in tasklet context may result in wrong order sends and its corresponding drops at the receiver. Since it is sufficient to send consumer cursor updates once the data is received, this patch gets rid of the consumer cursor update in tasklet context to guarantee in-sequence arrival of cursor updates.

On some dual port NICs, the 2 ports have to be configured with compatible link speeds. Under some conditions, a port's configured speed may no longer be supported. The firmware will send a message to the driver when this happens. Improve this logic that prints out the warning by only printing it if we can determine the link speed that is no longer supported. If the speed is unknown or it is in autoneg mode, skip the warning message. Reported-by:

tcfm_dev always points to the correct netdev and we already hold a refcnt, so no need to use tcfm_ifindex to lookup again. If we would support moving target netdev across netns, using pointer would be better than ifindex.

Commit ae8223de ("net: macb: Added support for RX filtering") introduces a lock, rx_fs_lock which is intended to protect the list of rx_flow items and synchronize access to the hardware rx filtering registers. However, the region protected by this lock is overscoped, unnecessarily including things like slab allocation. Reduce this lock scope to only include operations which must be performed atomically: list traversal, addition, and removal, and hitting the macb filtering registers. This fixes the use of kmalloc w/ GFP_KERNEL in atomic context.

Vivien Didelot says: ==================== net: dsa: use per-port upstream port An upstream port is a local switch port used to reach a CPU port. DSA still considers a unique CPU port in the whole switch fabric and thus return a unique upstream port for a given switch. This is wrong in a multiple CPU ports environment. We are now switching to using the dedicated CPU port assigned to each port in order to get rid of the deprecated unique tree CPU port. This patchset makes the dsa_upstream_port() helper take a port argument and goes one step closer complete support for multiple CPU ports.

The current dsa_upstream_port() helper still assumes a unique CPU port in the whole switch fabric. This is becoming wrong, as every port in the fabric has its dedicated CPU port, thus every port has an upstream port. Add a port argument to the dsa_upstream_port() helper and fetch its CPU port instead of the deprecated unique fabric CPU port. A CPU or unused port has no dedicated CPU port, so return itself in this case. At the same time, change the return value from u8 to unsigned int since there is no need to limit the size here.
