Ido Schimmel says: ==================== mlxsw: spectrum_acl: Add Bloom filter support Nir says: Spectrum-2 uses Bloom filter to reduce the number of lookups in the algorithmic TCAM (A-TCAM). HW performs multiple exact match lookups in a given region using a key composed of { packet & mask, mask ID, region ID }. The masks which are used in a region are called rule patterns or RP. When such multiple masks are used, the A-TCAM region uses an eRP (extended RP) table that describes which rule patterns are in use and defines the order of the lookup. When eRP table is used in a region, one way to reduce the number of the lookups is to consult a Bloom filter before doing the lookup. A Bloom filter is a space-efficient probabilistic data structure, on which a query returns either "possibly in set" or "definitely not in set". HW can skip a lookup if a query on the Bloom filter results a "definitely not set" response. The mlxsw driver implements a "counting filter" and when either a new entry is marked or the last entry is removed it will update the HW. Update of this counting filter occurs when rule is configured or deleted from a region. Patch #1 adds PEABFE register which is used for setting Bloom filter entries. Patch #2 adds Bloom filter resources. Patch #3 and patch #4 provide Bloom filter handling within mlxsw, by adding initialization and logic for updating the Bloom bit vector in HW. Patch #5 and patch #6 add required calls for Bloom filter update as part of rule configuration flow. Patch #7 handles transitions to and from eRP table. It uses a list to keep A-TCAM rules in order to update rules in Bloom filter, in cases of transitions from master mask based A-TCAM region to an eRP table based region and vice versa. Patch #8 removes a trick done on master RP index to a remaining RP, since Bloom filter is updated on eRP transitions. Finally, patch #9 activates Bloom filter mechanism in HW, by cancelling the bypass that was configured before and the remaining three patches are selftests that exercise the new code. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

The eRP table is active when there is more than a single rule pattern. It may be that the patterns are close enough and use delta mechanism. Bloom filter index computation is based on the values of {rule & mask, mask ID, region ID} where the rule delta bits must be cleared. Add a test that exercises Bloom filter with delta mechanism. Configure rules within delta range and pass a packet which is supposed to hit the correct rule. Signed-off-by:Nir Dotan <nird@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by:

Bloom filter index computation is based on the values of {rule & mask, mask ID, region ID} and the computation also varies according to the region key size. Add a test that exercises the possible combinations by creating multiple chains using different key sizes and then pass a frame that is supposed to to produce a hit on all of the regions.

Add a test that exercises Bloom filter code. Activate eRP table in the region by adding multiple rule patterns which with very high probability use different entries in the Bloom filter. Then send packets in order to check lookup hits on all relevant rules. Signed-off-by:

Bloom filter is updated on transitions from a single rule pattern, also called master RP, to eRP table and vice versa. Since rules are being written to or deleted from the Bloom filter on such transitions, it is not required to keep the same eRP bank ID for the master RP. Change master RP index assignment so it will be assigned with zero. This is consistent with the assignment of the first available spot that is used for allocating eRP's indices. Signed-off-by:

Bloom filter update is required only for rules which reside on an eRP. When the region has only a single rule pattern then eRP table is not used, however insertion of another pattern would trigger a move to an active eRP table so it is imperative to update the Bloom filter with all previously configured rules. Add a method that updates Bloom filter entries for all rules currently configured in the region, on the event of a transition from master mask to eRP, or vice versa. For that purpose, maintain a list of all A-TCAM rules within mlxsw_sp_acl_atcam_region. Signed-off-by:

Nir Dotan authored
Add Bloom filter update for rule insertion and rule removal scenarios. This is done within eRP module in order to assure that Bloom filter updates are done only for rules which are part of an eRP, as HW does not consult Bloom filter for entries when there is a single (master) mask in the region.

Spectrum-2 HW uses Bloom filter in order to skip lookups on specific eRPs. It uses crc-16-Msbit-first calculation over a specific layout of a rule's key fields combined with eRP ID as well as region ID. Per potential lookup, iff the Bloom filter entry of the calculated index is empty, then the lookup can be skipped. Hence, the mlxsw driver should update the Bloom filter entry per each rule insertion or deletion when rules are part of an eRP. Add functions for adding and deleting entries in the Bloom filter. In order to do so also add crc-16 computation based on the specific Spectrum-2 polynomial and a function for encoding the crc-16 input in the manner dictated by HW implementation. Signed-off-by:

Bloom filter is a bit vector which allows the HW a fast lookup on a small size bit vector, that may reduce the number of lookups on the A-TCAM memory. PEABFE register allows setting values to the bits of the bit vector mentioned above. Add the register to be later used in A-TCAM optimizations. Signed-off-by:

Commit d9fbc7f6 "net: tcp: prefer listeners bound to an address" removes port-only listener lookups. This caused segfaults in DCCP lookups because DCCP did not initialize the (addr,port) hashtable. This patch adds said initialization. The only non-trivial issue here is the size of the new hashtable. It seemed reasonable to make it match the size of the port-only hashtable (= INET_LHTABLE_SIZE) that was used previously. Other parameters to inet_hashinfo2_init() match those used in TCP. Tested: syzcaller issues fixed; the second patch in the patchset tests that DCCP lookups work correctly. Fixes: d9fbc7f6 "net: tcp: prefer listeners bound to an address" Reported-by:

When Protocol Field Compression (PFC) is enabled, the "Protocol" field in PPP packet will be received without leading 0x00. See section 6.5 in RFC 1661 for details. So let's decompress protocol field if needed, the same way it's done in drivers/net/ppp/pptp.c. In case when "nopcomp" pppd option is not enabled, PFC (pcomp) can be negotiated during LCP handshake, and L2TP driver in kernel will receive PPP packets with compressed Protocol field, which in turn leads to next error: Protocol Rejected (unsupported protocol 0x2145) because instead of Protocol=0x0021 in PPP packet there will be Protocol=0x21. This patch unwraps it back to 0x0021, which fixes the issue. Sending the compressed Protocol field will be implemented in subsequent patch, this one is self-sufficient.

Paolo Abeni says: ==================== net: mitigate retpoline overhead The spectre v2 counter-measures, aka retpolines, are a source of measurable overhead[1]. We can partially address that when the function pointer refers to a builtin symbol resorting to a list of tests vs well-known builtin function and direct calls. Experimental results show that replacing a single indirect call via retpoline with several branches and a direct call gives performance gains even when multiple branches are added - 5 or more, as reported in [2]. This may lead to some uglification around the indirect calls. In netconf 2018 Eric Dumazet described a technique to hide the most relevant part of the needed boilerplate with some macro help. This series is a [re-]implementation of such idea, exposing the introduced helpers in a new header file. They are later leveraged to avoid the indirect call overhead in the GRO path, when possible. Overall this gives > 10% performance improvement for UDP GRO benchmark and smaller but measurable for TCP syn flood. The added infra can be used in follow-up patches to cope with retpoline overhead in other points of the networking stack (e.g. at the qdisc layer) and possibly even in other subsystems. v2 -> v3: - fix build error with CONFIG_IPV6=m v1 -> v2: - list explicitly the builtin function names in INDIRECT_CALL_*(), as suggested by Ed Cree - expand the recipients list rfc -> v1: - use branch prediction hints, as suggested by Eric [1] http://vger.kernel.org/netconf2018_files/PaoloAbeni_netconf2018.pdf [2] https://linuxplumbersconf.org/event/2/contributions/99/attachments/98/117/lpc18_paper_af_xdp_perf-v2.pdf ==================== Signed-off-by:

This avoids an indirect call in the receive path for TCP and UDP packets. TCP takes precedence on UDP, so that we have a single additional conditional in the common case. When IPV6 is build as module, all gro symbols except UDPv6 are builtin, while the latter belong to the ipv6 module, so we need some special care. v1 -> v2: - adapted to INDIRECT_CALL_ changes v2 -> v3: - fix build issue with CONFIG_IPV6=m Signed-off-by:

This header define a bunch of helpers that allow avoiding the retpoline overhead when calling builtin functions via function pointers. It boils down to explicitly comparing the function pointers to known builtin functions and eventually invoke directly the latter. The macros defined here implement the boilerplate for the above schema and will be used by the next patches. rfc -> v1: - use branch prediction hint, as suggested by Eric v1 -> v2: - list explicitly the builtin function names in INDIRECT_CALL_*(), as suggested by Ed Cree Suggested-by:

Currently the driver issues 2 mmio reads to figure out the number of transmitted packets and clean them. We can get rid of the expensive reads since BIT 31 of the Tx descriptor can be used for that. We can also remove the budget counting of Tx completions since all of the descriptors are not deliberately processed. Performance numbers using pktgen are: size pre-patch(pps) post-patch(pps) 64 362483 427916 128 358315 411686 256 352725 389683 512 215675 216464 1024 113812 114442 Signed-off-by:

Running pktgen with packets sizes > 512b ends up in the interface Txq getting stuck. "netsec 522d0000.ethernet eth0: netsec_netdev_start_xmit: TxQFull!" appears on dmesg but the interface never recovers. It requires an ifconfig down/up to make the interface usable again. The reason that triggers this, is a race condition between .ndo_start_xmit and the napi completion. The available budget is calculated first and indicates the queue is full. Due to a costly netif_err() the queue is not stopped in time while the napi completion runs, clears the irq and frees up descriptors, thus the queue never wakes up again. Fix this by moving the print after stopping the queue, make the print ratelimited, add barriers and check for cleaned descriptors.. Signed-off-by:
