Oleksandr Natalenko reported performance issues with BBR without FQ packet scheduler that were root caused to lack of SG and GSO/TSO on his configuration. In this mode, TCP internal pacing has to setup a high resolution timer for each MSS sent. We could implement in TCP a strategy similar to the one adopted in commit fefa569a ("net_sched: sch_fq: account for schedule/timers drifts") or decide to finally switch TCP stack to a GSO only mode. This has many benefits : 1) Most TCP developments are done with TSO in mind. 2) Less high-resolution timers needs to be armed for TCP-pacing 3) GSO can benefit of xmit_more hint 4) Receiver GRO is more effective (as if TSO was used for real on sender) -> Lower ACK traffic 5) Write queues have less overhead (one skb holds about 64KB of payload) 6) SACK coalescing just works. 7) rtx rb-tree contains less packets, SACK is cheaper. This patch implements the minimum patch, but we can remove some legacy code as follow ups. Tested: On 40Gbit link, one netperf -t TCP_STREAM BBR+fq: sg on: 26 Gbits/sec sg off: 15.7 Gbits/sec (was 2.3 Gbit before patch) BBR+pfifo_fast: sg on: 24.2 Gbits/sec sg off: 14.9 Gbits/sec (was 0.66 Gbit before patch !!! ) BBR+fq_codel: sg on: 24.4 Gbits/sec sg off: 15 Gbits/sec (was 0.66 Gbit before patch !!! ) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Reported-by: Oleksandr Natalenko <oleksandr@natalenko.name> Signed-off-by: David S.

Nathan Fontenot says: ==================== ibmvnic: Make driver resources dynamic The ibmvnic driver needs to be able to handle the number of tx/rx sub-crqs changing during a reset of the driver. To do this several changes need to be made. First the num_active_[tx|rx]_pools counters need to be re-named to num_active_[tc|rx]_scrqs, and updated after resource initialization. With this change we can now release and init the sub crqs and napi (for rx sub crqs) when the number of sub crqs change. Lastly, the stats buffer allocation is updated to always allocate the maximum number of sub-crqs count of stats buffers. -Nathan --- Updates for V3: Patch 3/5 - Make do_h_free parameter a bool Updates for V2: Patch 3/5 - Use correct queue count when driver is in probed state for releasing sub crqs. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

In order to handle the number of rx sub crqs changing during a driver reset, the ibmvnic driver also needs to update the number of napi. To do this the code to init and free napi's is moved to their own routines so they can be called during the reset process.

When the driver resets it is possible that the number of tx/rx sub-crqs can change. This patch handles this so that the driver does not try to access non-existent sub-crqs. The count for releasing sub crqs depends on the adapter state. The active queue count is not set in probe, so if we are relasing in probe state we use the request queue count. Additionally, a parameter is added to release_sub_crqs() so that we know if the h_call to free the sub-crq needs to be made. In the reset path we have to do a reset of the main crq, which is a free followed by a register of the main crq. The free of main crq results in all of the sub crq's being free'ed. When updating sub-crq count in the reset path we do not want to h_free the sub-crqs, they are already free'ed. Signed-off-by: Nathan Fontenot <nfont@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Rename the tx/rx active pool variables to be tx/rx active scrq counts. The tx/rx pools are per sub-crq so this is a more appropriate name. This also is a preparatory step for using thiese variables for handling updates to sub-crqs and napi based on the active count.

The lib8390 module parameter 'msg_enable' doesn't do anything useful: it causes an ancient version string to be logged. Remove redundant code that logs the same string. In ne.c and wd.c, the value of ei_local->msg_enable is used before being assigned. Use ne_msg_enable and wd_msg_enable, respectively. Most of the other 8390 drivers never assign ei_local->msg_enable. Use the 'msg_enable' module parameter from lib8390 as the default value. Eliminate the pointless static and local variables. Clean up an indentation mistake. All of these issues originated from the same patch.

The hydra, zorro8390 and mcf8390 drivers all #include "lib8390.c" and have no need for 8390.o. modinfo confirms no dependency on 8390.ko. Drop the redundant dependency from the Makefile. objdump confirms that this patch has no effect on the module binaries.

The commit a new tc ematch for using netfilter xtable matches. This allows early classification as well as mirroning/redirecting traffic based on logic implemented in netfilter extensions. Current supported use case is classification based on the incoming IPSec state used during decpsulation using the 'policy' iptables extension (xt_policy). The module dynamically fetches the netfilter match module and calls it using a fake xt_action_param structure based on validated userspace provided parameters. As the xt_policy match does not access skb->data, no skb modifications are needed on match. Signed-off-by: Eyal Birger <eyal.birger@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The device tree binding for stmmac says: - Multiple TX Queues parameters: below the list of all the parameters to configure the multiple TX queues: - snps,tx-queues-to-use: number of TX queues to be used in the driver [...] - For each TX queue [...] However, if one specifies snps,tx-queues-to-use = 2, but omits the queue subnodes, or defines just one queue subnode, since the driver appears to initialize queues with sane default values, we will get tx queue timeouts. This is because the initialization code only initializes as many queues as it finds subnodes. Potentially leaving some queues uninitialized. To avoid hard to debug issues, return an error if the number of subnodes differ from snps,tx-queues-to-use/snps,rx-queues-to-use.

stmmac_mac_config_rx_queues_routing() incorrectly calls rx_queue_prio() instead of rx_queue_routing(). This looks like a copy paste issue, since stmmac_mac_config_rx_queues_prio() already calls rx_queue_prio(), and both stmmac_mac_config_rx_queues_routing() and stmmac_mac_config_rx_queues_prio() are very similar in structure.

The current code assumes that a tx_skbuff entry has been cleared by stmmac_tx_clean() before stmmac_xmit()/stmmac_tso_xmit() assigns a new skb to that entry. However, since we never check the current value before overwriting it, it is theoretically possible that a non-NULL value is overwritten. Add WARN_ONs to verify that each entry in tx_skbuff is NULL before it is assigned a new value. Signed-off-by: Niklas Cassel <niklas.cassel@axis.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

tx_skbuff is initialized to NULL in init_dma_tx_desc_rings(), which is called from ndo_open(). stmmac_tx_clean() frees any non-NULL skb, and sets the tx_skbuff entry to NULL. Hence, there is no need to set skbuff entries to NULL in stmmac_xmit()/stmmac_tso_xmit(), and doing so falsely gives the reader the impression that it is needed. Do not clear tx_skbuff entries in stmmac_xmit()/stmmac_tso_xmit(). Signed-off-by: Niklas Cassel <niklas.cassel@axis.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The DMA engine in dwmac4 can segment a large TSO packet to several smaller packets of (max) size Maximum Segment Size (MSS). The DMA engine fetches and saves the MSS via a context descriptor. This context decriptor has to be provided to each tx DMA channel. To ensure that this is done, move struct member mss from stmmac_priv to stmmac_tx_queue. stmmac_reset_queues_param() now also resets mss, together with other queue parameters, so reset of mss value can be removed from stmmac_resume(). init_dma_tx_desc_rings() now also resets mss, together with other queue parameters, so reset of mss value can be removed from stmmac_open(). This fixes tx queue timeouts for dwmac4, with DT property snps,tx-queues-to-use > 1, when running iperf3 with multiple threads.

We take net_mutex, when there are !async pernet_operations registered, and read locking of net_sem is not enough. But we may get rid of taking the mutex, and just change the logic to write lock net_sem in such cases. This obviously reduces the number of lock operations, we do.
