Since commit 8a29111c ("net: gro: allow to build full sized skb") gro may build buffers with a frag_list. This can hurt forwarding because most NICs can't offload such packets, they need to be segmented in software. This patch splits buffers with a frag_list at the frag_list pointer into buffers that can be TSO offloaded.

由 Yaogong Wang 提交于
Over the years, TCP BDP has increased by several orders of magnitude, and some people are considering to reach the 2 Gbytes limit. Even with current window scale limit of 14, ~1 Gbytes maps to ~740,000 MSS. In presence of packet losses (or reorders), TCP stores incoming packets into an out of order queue, and number of skbs sitting there waiting for the missing packets to be received can be in the 10^5 range. Most packets are appended to the tail of this queue, and when packets can finally be transferred to receive queue, we scan the queue from its head. However, in presence of heavy losses, we might have to find an arbitrary point in this queue, involving a linear scan for every incoming packet, throwing away cpu caches. This patch converts it to a RB tree, to get bounded latencies. Yaogong wrote a preliminary patch about 2 years ago. Eric did the rebase, added ofo_last_skb cache, polishing and tests. Tested with network dropping between 1 and 10 % packets, with good success (about 30 % increase of throughput in stress tests) Next step would be to also use an RB tree for the write queue at sender side ;) Signed-off-by: NYaogong Wang <wygivan@google.com> Signed-off-by: NEric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: Yuchung Cheng <ycheng@google.com> Cc: Neal Cardwell <ncardwell@google.com> Cc: Ilpo Järvinen <ilpo.jarvinen@helsinki.fi> Acked-By: NIlpo Järvinen <ilpo.jarvinen@helsinki.fi> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

SCTP has this pecualiarity that its packets cannot be just segmented to (P)MTU. Its chunks must be contained in IP segments, padding respected. So we can't just generate a big skb, set gso_size to the fragmentation point and deliver it to IP layer. This patch takes a different approach. SCTP will now build a skb as it would be if it was received using GRO. That is, there will be a cover skb with protocol headers and children ones containing the actual segments, already segmented to a way that respects SCTP RFCs. With that, we can tell skb_segment() to just split based on frag_list, trusting its sizes are already in accordance. This way SCTP can benefit from GSO and instead of passing several packets through the stack, it can pass a single large packet. v2: - Added support for receiving GSO frames, as requested by Dave Miller. - Clear skb->cb if packet is GSO (otherwise it's not used by SCTP) - Added heuristics similar to what we have in TCP for not generating single GSO packets that fills cwnd. v3: - consider sctphdr size in skb_gso_transport_seglen() - rebased due to 5c7cdf33 ("gso: Remove arbitrary checks for unsupported GSO") Signed-off-by: NMarcelo Ricardo Leitner <marcelo.leitner@gmail.com> Tested-by: NXin Long <lucien.xin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

In the event that the number of partial segments is equal to 1 we don't really need to perform partial segmentation offload.

由 Sowmini Varadhan 提交于
A pattern of skb usage seen in modules such as RDS-TCP is to extract `to_copy' bytes from the received TCP segment, starting at some offset `off' into a new skb `clone'. This is done in the ->data_ready callback, where the clone skb is queued up for rx on the PF_RDS socket, while the parent TCP segment is returned unchanged back to the TCP engine. The existing code uses the sequence clone = skb_clone(..); pskb_pull(clone, off, ..); pskb_trim(clone, to_copy, ..); with the intention of discarding the first `off' bytes. However, skb_clone() + pskb_pull() implies pksb_expand_head(), which ends up doing a redundant memcpy of bytes that will then get discarded in __pskb_pull_tail(). To avoid this inefficiency, this commit adds pskb_extract() that creates the clone, and memcpy's only the relevant header/frag/frag_list to the start of `clone'. pskb_trim() is then invoked to trim clone down to the requested to_copy bytes.

When __vlan_insert_tag() fails from skb_vlan_push() path due to the skb_cow_head(), we need to undo the __skb_push() in the error path as well that was done earlier to move skb->data pointer to mac header. Moreover, I noticed that when in the non-error path the __skb_pull() is done and the original offset to mac header was non-zero, we fixup from a wrong skb->data offset in the checksum complete processing. So the skb_postpush_rcsum() really needs to be done before __skb_pull() where skb->data still points to the mac header start and thus operates under the same conditions as in __vlan_insert_tag().

This patch adds support for something I am referring to as GSO partial. The basic idea is that we can support a broader range of devices for segmentation if we use fixed outer headers and have the hardware only really deal with segmenting the inner header. The idea behind the naming is due to the fact that everything before csum_start will be fixed headers, and everything after will be the region that is handled by hardware. With the current implementation it allows us to add support for the following GSO types with an inner TSO_MANGLEID or TSO6 offload: NETIF_F_GSO_GRE NETIF_F_GSO_GRE_CSUM NETIF_F_GSO_IPIP NETIF_F_GSO_SIT NETIF_F_UDP_TUNNEL NETIF_F_UDP_TUNNEL_CSUM In the case of hardware that already supports tunneling we may be able to extend this further to support TSO_TCPV4 without TSO_MANGLEID if the hardware can support updating inner IPv4 headers.

Simply handled by using dev_consume_skb_any(). This adds an extra branch+call for the netpoll case (checking in_irq() + irqs_disabled()), but that is okay as this is a slowpath.

The network stack defers SKBs free, in-case free happens in IRQ or when IRQs are disabled. This happens in __dev_kfree_skb_irq() that writes SKBs that were free'ed during IRQ to the softirq completion queue (softnet_data.completion_queue). These SKBs are naturally delayed, and cleaned up during NET_TX_SOFTIRQ in function net_tx_action(). Take advantage of this a use the skb defer and flush API, as we are already in softirq context. For modern drivers this rarely happens. Although most drivers do call dev_kfree_skb_any(), which detects the situation and calls __dev_kfree_skb_irq() when needed. This due to netpoll can call from IRQ context. Signed-off-by: NAlexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NJesper Dangaard Brouer <brouer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

Discovered that network stack were hitting the kmem_cache/SLUB slowpath when freeing SKBs. Doing bulk free with kmem_cache_free_bulk can speedup this slowpath. NAPI context is a bit special, lets take advantage of that for bulk free'ing SKBs. In NAPI context we are running in softirq, which gives us certain protection. A softirq can run on several CPUs at once. BUT the important part is a softirq will never preempt another softirq running on the same CPU. This gives us the opportunity to access per-cpu variables in softirq context. Extend napi_alloc_cache (before only contained page_frag_cache) to be a struct with a small array based stack for holding SKBs. Introduce a SKB defer and flush API for accessing this. Introduce napi_consume_skb() as replacement for e.g. dev_consume_skb_any() when running in NAPI context. A small trick to handle/detect if we are called from netpoll is to see if budget is 0. In that case, we need to invoke dev_consume_skb_irq(). Joint work with Alexander Duyck.

When we have multiple stacked vlan devices all of which have turned off REORDER_HEADER flag, the untag operation does not locate the ethernet addresses correctly for nested vlans. The reason is that in case of REORDER_HEADER flag being off, the outer vlan headers are put back and the mac_len is adjusted to account for the presense of the header. Then, the subsequent untag operation, for the next level vlan, always use VLAN_ETH_HLEN to locate the begining of the ethernet header and that ends up being a multiple of 4 bytes short of the actuall beginning of the mac header (the multiple depending on the how many vlan encapsulations ethere are). As a reslult, if there are multiple levles of vlan devices with REODER_HEADER being off, the recevied packets end up being dropped. To solve this, we use skb->mac_len as the offset. The value is always set on receive path and starts out as a ETH_HLEN. The value is also updated when the vlan header manupations occur so we know it will be correct.

mm, page_alloc: distinguish between being unable to sleep, unwilling to sleep and avoiding waking kswapd __GFP_WAIT has been used to identify atomic context in callers that hold spinlocks or are in interrupts. They are expected to be high priority and have access one of two watermarks lower than "min" which can be referred to as the "atomic reserve". __GFP_HIGH users get access to the first lower watermark and can be called the "high priority reserve". Over time, callers had a requirement to not block when fallback options were available. Some have abused __GFP_WAIT leading to a situation where an optimisitic allocation with a fallback option can access atomic reserves. This patch uses __GFP_ATOMIC to identify callers that are truely atomic, cannot sleep and have no alternative. High priority users continue to use __GFP_HIGH. __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM identifies callers that can sleep and are willing to enter direct reclaim. __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM to identify callers that want to wake kswapd for background reclaim. __GFP_WAIT is redefined as a caller that is willing to enter direct reclaim and wake kswapd for background reclaim. This patch then converts a number of sites o __GFP_ATOMIC is used by callers that are high priority and have memory pools for those requests. GFP_ATOMIC uses this flag. o Callers that have a limited mempool to guarantee forward progress clear __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM but keep __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. bio allocations fall into this category where kswapd will still be woken but atomic reserves are not used as there is a one-entry mempool to guarantee progress. o Callers that are checking if they are non-blocking should use the helper gfpflags_allow_blocking() where possible. This is because checking for __GFP_WAIT as was done historically now can trigger false positives. Some exceptions like dm-crypt.c exist where the code intent is clearer if __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM is used instead of the helper due to flag manipulations. o Callers that built their own GFP flags instead of starting with GFP_KERNEL and friends now also need to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. The first key hazard to watch out for is callers that removed __GFP_WAIT and was depending on access to atomic reserves for inconspicuous reasons. In some cases it may be appropriate for them to use __GFP_HIGH. The second key hazard is callers that assembled their own combination of GFP flags instead of starting with something like GFP_KERNEL. They may now wish to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. It's almost certainly harmless if it's missed in most cases as other activity will wake kswapd.

Commit c48a11c7 ("netvm: propagate page->pfmemalloc to skb") added checks for page->pfmemalloc to __skb_fill_page_desc(): if (page->pfmemalloc && !page->mapping) skb->pfmemalloc = true; It assumes page->mapping == NULL implies that page->pfmemalloc can be trusted. However, __delete_from_page_cache() can set set page->mapping to NULL and leave page->index value alone. Due to being in union, a non-zero page->index will be interpreted as true page->pfmemalloc. So the assumption is invalid if the networking code can see such a page. And it seems it can. We have encountered this with a NFS over loopback setup when such a page is attached to a new skbuf. There is no copying going on in this case so the page confuses __skb_fill_page_desc which interprets the index as pfmemalloc flag and the network stack drops packets that have been allocated using the reserves unless they are to be queued on sockets handling the swapping which is the case here and that leads to hangs when the nfs client waits for a response from the server which has been dropped and thus never arrive. The struct page is already heavily packed so rather than finding another hole to put it in, let's do a trick instead. We can reuse the index again but define it to an impossible value (-1UL). This is the page index so it should never see the value that large. Replace all direct users of page->pfmemalloc by page_is_pfmemalloc which will hide this nastiness from unspoiled eyes. The information will get lost if somebody wants to use page->index obviously but that was the case before and the original code expected that the information should be persisted somewhere else if that is really needed (e.g. what SLAB and SLUB do).

The recent refactoring of the IGMP and MLD parsing code into ipv6_mc_check_mld() / ip_mc_check_igmp() introduced a potential crash / BUG() invocation for bridges: I wrongly assumed that skb_get() could be used as a simple reference counter for an skb which is not the case. skb_get() bears additional semantics, a user count. This leads to a BUG() invocation in pskb_expand_head() / kernel panic if pskb_may_pull() is called on an skb with a user count greater than one - unfortunately the refactoring did just that. Fixing this by removing the skb_get() call and changing the API: The caller of ipv6_mc_check_mld() / ip_mc_check_igmp() now needs to additionally check whether the returned skb_trimmed is a clone.

We saw excessive direct memory compaction triggered by skb_page_frag_refill. This causes performance issues and add latency. Commit 5640f768 introduces the order-3 allocation. According to the changelog, the order-3 allocation isn't a must-have but to improve performance. But direct memory compaction has high overhead. The benefit of order-3 allocation can't compensate the overhead of direct memory compaction. This patch makes the order-3 page allocation atomic. If there is no memory pressure and memory isn't fragmented, the alloction will still success, so we don't sacrifice the order-3 benefit here. If the atomic allocation fails, direct memory compaction will not be triggered, skb_page_frag_refill will fallback to order-0 immediately, hence the direct memory compaction overhead is avoided. In the allocation failure case, kswapd is waken up and doing compaction, so chances are allocation could success next time. alloc_skb_with_frags is the same. The mellanox driver does similar thing, if this is accepted, we must fix the driver too.

unix_stream_recvmsg is refactored to unix_stream_read_generic in this patch and enhanced to deal with pipe splicing. The refactoring is inneglible, we mostly have to deal with a non-existing struct msghdr argument. Signed-off-by: NHannes Frederic Sowa <hannes@stressinduktion.org> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

Prepare skb_splice_bits to be able to deal with AF_UNIX sockets. AF_UNIX sockets don't use lock_sock/release_sock and thus we have to use a callback to make the locking and unlocking configureable.
