When packet encapsulation is in use, the MTU needs to be reduced for headroom reservation. The existing code takes the updated MTU value only from the host side. But vSwitch extensions, such as Open vSwitch, require the flexibility to change the MTU to different values from within a guest during the lifecycle of a vNIC, when the encapsulation protocol is changed. The patch supports this kind of MTU changes. Signed-off-by: NHaiyang Zhang <haiyangz@microsoft.com> Reviewed-by: NK. Y. Srinivasan <kys@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

Nothing in <asm/io.h> uses anything from <linux/vmalloc.h>, so remove it from there and fix up the resulting build problems triggered on x86 {64|32}-bit {def|allmod|allno}configs. The breakages were triggering in places where x86 builds relied on vmalloc() facilities but did not include <linux/vmalloc.h> explicitly and relied on the implicit inclusion via <asm/io.h>. Also add: - <linux/init.h> to <linux/io.h> - <asm/pgtable_types> to <asm/io.h> ... which were two other implicit header file dependencies.

The current algorithm for deciding on the number of VRSS channels is not optimal since we open up the min of number of CPUs online and the number of VRSS channels the host is offering. So on a 32 VCPU guest we could potentially open 32 VRSS subchannels. Experimentation has shown that it is best to limit the number of VRSS channels to the number of CPUs within a NUMA node. Here is the new algorithm for deciding on the number of sub-channels we would open up: 1) Pick the minimum of what the host is offering and what the driver in the guest is specifying as the default value. 2) Pick the minimum of (1) and the numbers of CPUs in the NUMA node the primary channel is bound to.

Current code does not lock anything when calculating the TX and RX stats. As a result, the RX and TX data reported by ifconfig are not accuracy in a system with high network throughput and multiple CPUs (in my test, RX/TX = 83% between 2 HyperV VM nodes which have 8 vCPUs and 40G Ethernet). This patch fixed the above issue by using per_cpu stats. netvsc_get_stats64() summarizes TX and RX data by iterating over all CPUs to get their respective stats.

Only call dump_rndis_message() when NETIF_MSG_RX_ERR or above is specified in netvsc module debug param. In non-debug mode, in current code, dump_rndis_message() will not dump anything but it still initialize some local variables and process the switch logic which is unnecessary, especially in high network throughput situation.

In netvsc_start_xmit() we can handle packets which are scattered around not more than MAX_PAGE_BUFFER_COUNT-2 pages. It is, however, easy to create a packet which is not big in size but occupies more pages (e.g. if it uses frags on compound pages boundaries). When we drop such packet it cases sender to try resending it but in most cases it will try resending the same packet which will also get dropped, this will cause the particular connection to stick. To solve the issue we can try linearizing skb. Signed-off-by: NVitaly Kuznetsov <vkuznets@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Intel did some benchmarking on our network throughput when Linux on Hyper-V is as used as a gateway. This fix gave us almost a 1 Gbps additional throughput on about 5Gbps base throughput we hadi, prior to increasing the sendbuf size. The sendbuf mechanism is a copy based transport that we have which is clearly more optimal than the copy-free page flipping mechanism (for small packets). In the forwarding scenario, we deal only with MTU sized packets, and increasing the size of the senbuf area gave us the additional performance. For what it is worth, Windows guests on Hyper-V, I am told use similar sendbuf size as well. The exact value of sendbuf I think is less important than the fact that it needs to be larger than what Linux can allocate as physically contiguous memory. Thus the change over to allocating via vmalloc(). We currently allocate 16MB receive buffer and we use vmalloc there for allocation. Also the low level channel code has already been modified to deal with physically dis-contiguous memory in the ringbuffer setup. Based on experimentation Intel did, they say there was some improvement in throughput as the sendbuf size was increased up to 16MB and there was no effect on throughput beyond 16MB. Thus I have chosen 16MB here. Increasing the sendbuf value makes a material difference in small packet handling In this version of the patch, based on David's feedback, I have added additional details in the commit log.
