The aggresive load balancing causes packet re-ordering as active flows are moved from a slave to another within the group. Sometime this aggresive lb is not necessary if the preference is for less re-ordering. This parameter if used with value "0" disables this dynamic flow shuffling minimizing packet re-ordering. Of course the side effect is that it has to live with the static load balancing that the hashing distribution provides. This impact is less severe if the correct xmit-hashing-policy is used for the tlb setup. The default value of the parameter is set to "1" mimicing the earlier behavior. Ran the netperf test with 200 stream for 1 min between two hosts with 4x1G trunk (xmit-lb mode with xmit-policy L3+4) before and after these changes. Following was the command used for those 200 instances - netperf -t TCP_RR -l 60 -s 5 -H <host> -- -r81920,81920 Transactions per second: Before change: 1,367.11 After change: 1,470.65 Change-Id: Ie3f75c77282cf602e83a6e833c6eb164e72a0990 Signed-off-by: NMahesh Bandewar <maheshb@google.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

Modified the hash function to return just hash separating from the modulo operation that can be performed by the caller. This is to make way for the tlb mode to use the same hashing policies that are used in the 802.3ad and Xor mode.

The bond send arp request to indicate that the slave is active, and if the bond dev is a vlan dev, it will set the vlan tag in skb to notice the vlan group, but the bond could only send a skb with 802.1q proto, not support for QinQ. So add outer tag for lower vlan tag and inner tag for upper vlan tag to support QinQ, The new skb will be consist of two vlan tag just like this: dst mac | src mac | outer vlan tag | inner vlan tag | data | ..... If We don't need QinQ, the inner vlan tag could be set to 0 and use outer vlan tag as a normal vlan group. Using "ip link" to configure the bond for QinQ and add test log: ip link add link bond0 bond0.20 type vlan proto 802.1ad id 20 ip link add link bond0.20 bond0.20.200 type vlan proto 802.1q id 200 ifconfig bond0.20 11.11.20.36/24 ifconfig bond0.20.200 11.11.200.36/24 echo +11.11.200.37 > /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/arp_ip_target 90:e2:ba:07:4a:5c (oui Unknown) > Broadcast, ethertype 802.1Q-QinQ (0x88a8),length 50: vlan 20, p 0,ethertype 802.1Q, vlan 200, p 0, ethertype ARP, Ethernet (len 6), IPv4 (len 4), Request who-has 11.11.200.37 tell 11.11.200.36, length 28 90:e2:ba:06:f9:86 (oui Unknown) > 90:e2:ba:07:4a:5c (oui Unknown), ethertype 802.1Q-QinQ (0x88a8), length 50: vlan 20, p 0, ethertype 802.1Q, vlan 200, p 0, ethertype ARP, Ethernet (len 6), IPv4 (len 4), Reply 11.11.200.37 is-at 90:e2:ba:06:f9:86 (oui Unknown), length 28 v1->v2: remove the comment "TODO: QinQ?".

Veaceslav has reported and fix this problem by commit f2ebd477 (bonding: restructure locking of bond_ab_arp_probe()). According Jay's opinion, the current solution is not very well, because the notification is to indicate that the interface has actually changed state in a meaningful way, but these calls in the ab ARP monitor are internal settings of the flags to allow the ARP monitor to search for a slave to become active when there are no active slaves. The flag setting to active or backup is to permit the ARP monitor's response logic to do the right thing when deciding if the test slave (current_arp_slave) is up or not. So the best way to fix the problem is that we should not send a notification when the slave is in testing state, and check the state at the end of the monitor, if the slave's state recover, avoid to send pointless notification twice. And RTNL is really a big lock, hold it regardless the slave's state changed or not when the current_active_slave is null will loss performance (every 100ms), so we should hold it only when the slave's state changed and need to notify. I revert the old commit and add new modifications.

The problem was introduced by the commit 1d3ee88a (bonding: add netlink attributes to slave link dev). The bond_set_active_slave() and bond_set_backup_slave() will use rtmsg_ifinfo to send slave's states, so these two functions should be called in RTNL. In 802.3ad mode, acquiring RTNL for the __enable_port and __disable_port cases is difficult, as those calls generally already hold the state machine lock, and cannot unconditionally call rtnl_lock because either they already hold RTNL (for calls via bond_3ad_unbind_slave) or due to the potential for deadlock with bond_3ad_adapter_speed_changed, bond_3ad_adapter_duplex_changed, bond_3ad_link_change, or bond_3ad_update_lacp_rate. All four of those are called with RTNL held, and acquire the state machine lock second. The calling contexts for __enable_port and __disable_port already hold the state machine lock, and may or may not need RTNL. According to the Jay's opinion, I don't think it is a problem that the slave don't send notify message synchronously when the status changed, normally the state machine is running every 100 ms, send the notify message at the end of the state machine if the slave's state changed should be better. I fix the problem through these steps: 1). add a new function bond_set_slave_state() which could change the slave's state and call rtmsg_ifinfo() according to the input parameters called notify. 2). Add a new slave parameter which called should_notify, if the slave's state changed and don't notify yet, the parameter will be set to 1, and then if the slave's state changed again, the param will be set to 0, it indicate that the slave's state has been restored, no need to notify any one. 3). the __enable_port and __disable_port should not call rtmsg_ifinfo in the state machine lock, any change in the state of slave could set a flag in the slave, it will indicated that an rtmsg_ifinfo should be called at the end of the state machine.

The commit 1d3ee88a (bonding: add netlink attributes to slave link dev) has add rtmsg_ifinfo() in bond_set_active_slave() and bond_set_backup_slave(), so the two function need to called in RTNL lock, but bond_loadbalance_arp_mon() only calling these functions in RCU, warning message will occurs. fix this by add a new function bond_slave_state_change(), which will reset the slave's state after slave link check, so remove the bond_set_xxx_slave() from the cycle and only record the slave_state_changed, this will call the new function to set all slaves to new state in RTNL later.

This patch adds the necessary basic infrastructure to support centralized and unified option manipulation API for the bonding. The new structure bond_option will be used to describe each option with its dependencies on modes which will be checked automatically thus removing a lot of duplicated code. Also automatic range checking is added for some options. Currently the option setting function requires RTNL to be acquired prior to calling it, since many options already rely on RTNL it seemed like the best choice to protect all against common race conditions. In order to add an option the following steps need to be done: 1. Add an entry BOND_OPT_<option> to bond_options.h so it gets a unique id and a bit corresponding to the id 2. Add a bond_option entry to the bond_opts[] array in bond_options.c which describes the option, its dependencies and its manipulation function 3. Add code to export the option through sysfs and/or as a module parameter (the sysfs export will be made automatically in the future) The options can have different flags set, currently the following are supported: BOND_OPTFLAG_NOSLAVES - require that the bond device has no slaves prior to setting the option BOND_OPTFLAG_IFDOWN - require that the bond device is down prior to setting the option BOND_OPTFLAG_RAWVAL - don't parse the value but return it raw for the option to parse There's a new value structure to describe different types of values which can have the following flags: BOND_VALFLAG_DEFAULT - marks the default option (permanent string alias to this option is "default") BOND_VALFLAG_MIN - the minimum value that this option can have BOND_VALFLAG_MAX - the maximum value that this option can have An example would be nice here, so if we have an option which can have the values "off"(2), "special"(4, default) and supports a range, say 16 - 32, it should be defined as follows: "off", 2, "special", 4, BOND_VALFLAG_DEFAULT, "rangemin", 16, BOND_VALFLAG_MIN, "rangemax", 32, BOND_VALFLAG_MAX So we have the valid intervals: [2, 2], [4, 4], [16, 32] Also the valid strings: "off" = 2, "special" and "default" = 4 "rangemin" = 16, "rangemax" = 32 BOND_VALFLAG_(MIN|MAX) can be used to specify a valid range for an option, if MIN is omitted then 0 is considered as a minimum. If an exact match is found in the values[] table it will be returned, otherwise the range is tried (if available). The option parameter passing is done by using a special structure called bond_opt_value which can take either a string or a value to parse. One of the bond_opt_init(val|str) macros should be used depending on which one does the user want to parse (string or value). Then a call to __bond_opt_set should be done under RTNL.

Jakub Zawadzki noticed that some divisions by reciprocal_divide() were not correct [1][2], which he could also show with BPF code after divisions are transformed into reciprocal_value() for runtime invariance which can be passed to reciprocal_divide() later on; reverse in BPF dump ended up with a different, off-by-one K in some situations. This has been fixed by Eric Dumazet in commit aee636c4 ("bpf: do not use reciprocal divide"). This follow-up patch improves reciprocal_value() and reciprocal_divide() to work in all cases by using Granlund and Montgomery method, so that also future use is safe and without any non-obvious side-effects. Known problems with the old implementation were that division by 1 always returned 0 and some off-by-ones when the dividend and divisor where very large. This seemed to not be problematic with its current users, as far as we can tell. Eric Dumazet checked for the slab usage, we cannot surely say so in the case of flex_array. Still, in order to fix that, we propose an extension from the original implementation from commit 6a2d7a95 resp. [3][4], by using the algorithm proposed in "Division by Invariant Integers Using Multiplication" [5], Torbjörn Granlund and Peter L. Montgomery, that is, pseudocode for q = n/d where q, n, d is in u32 universe: 1) Initialization: int l = ceil(log_2 d) uword m' = floor((1<<32)*((1<<l)-d)/d)+1 int sh_1 = min(l,1) int sh_2 = max(l-1,0) 2) For q = n/d, all uword: uword t = (n*m')>>32 q = (t+((n-t)>>sh_1))>>sh_2 The assembler implementation from Agner Fog [6] also helped a lot while implementing. We have tested the implementation on x86_64, ppc64, i686, s390x; on x86_64/haswell we're still half the latency compared to normal divide. Joint work with Daniel Borkmann.
