      net: Allow GRO to use and set levels of checksum unnecessary · 662880f4
      Tom Herbert 提交于
      Allow GRO path to "consume" checksums provided in CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY
      and to report new checksums verfied for use in fallback to normal
      path.
      
      Change GRO checksum path to track csum_level using a csum_cnt field
      in NAPI_GRO_CB. On GRO initialization, if ip_summed is
      CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY set NAPI_GRO_CB(skb)->csum_cnt to
      skb->csum_level + 1. For each checksum verified, decrement
      NAPI_GRO_CB(skb)->csum_cnt while its greater than zero. If a checksum
      is verfied and NAPI_GRO_CB(skb)->csum_cnt == 0, we have verified a
      deeper checksum than originally indicated in skbuf so increment
      csum_level (or initialize to CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY if ip_summed is
      CHECKSUM_NONE or CHECKSUM_COMPLETE).

      net/ipv4: don't use module_init in non-modular gre_offload · cf172283
      Paul Gortmaker 提交于
      Recent commit 438e38fa
      ("gre_offload: statically build GRE offloading support") added
      new module_init/module_exit calls to the gre_offload.c file.
      
      The file is obj-y and can't be anything other than built-in.
      Currently it can never be built modular, so using module_init
      as an alias for __initcall can be somewhat misleading.
      
      Fix this up now, so that we can relocate module_init from
      init.h into module.h in the future.  If we don't do this, we'd
      have to add module.h to obviously non-modular code, and that
      would be a worse thing.  We also make the inclusion explicit.
      
      Note that direct use of __initcall is discouraged, vs. one
      of the priority categorized subgroups.  As __initcall gets
      mapped onto device_initcall, our use of device_initcall
      directly in this change means that the runtime impact is
      zero -- it will remain at level 6 in initcall ordering.
      
      As for the module_exit, rather than replace it with __exitcall,
      we simply remove it, since it appears only UML does anything
      with those, and even for UML, there is no relevant cleanup
      to be done here.

      net-gre-gro: Add GRE support to the GRO stack · bf5a755f
      Jerry Chu 提交于
      This patch built on top of Commit 299603e8
      ("net-gro: Prepare GRO stack for the upcoming tunneling support") to add
      the support of the standard GRE (RFC1701/RFC2784/RFC2890) to the GRO
      stack. It also serves as an example for supporting other encapsulation
      protocols in the GRO stack in the future.
      
      The patch supports version 0 and all the flags (key, csum, seq#) but
      will flush any pkt with the S (seq#) flag. This is because the S flag
      is not support by GSO, and a GRO pkt may end up in the forwarding path,
      thus requiring GSO support to break it up correctly.
      
      Currently the "packet_offload" structure only contains L3 (ETH_P_IP/
      ETH_P_IPV6) GRO offload support so the encapped pkts are limited to
      IP pkts (i.e., w/o L2 hdr). But support for other protocol type can
      be easily added, so is the support for GRE variations like NVGRE.
      
      The patch also support csum offload. Specifically if the csum flag is on
      and the h/w is capable of checksumming the payload (CHECKSUM_COMPLETE),
      the code will take advantage of the csum computed by the h/w when
      validating the GRE csum.
      
      Note that commit 60769a5d "ipv4: gre:
      add GRO capability" already introduces GRO capability to IPv4 GRE
      tunnels, using the gro_cells infrastructure. But GRO is done after
      GRE hdr has been removed (i.e., decapped). The following patch applies
      GRO when pkts first come in (before hitting the GRE tunnel code). There
      is some performance advantage for applying GRO as early as possible.
      Also this approach is transparent to other subsystem like Open vSwitch
      where GRE decap is handled outside of the IP stack hence making it
      harder for the gro_cells stuff to apply. On the other hand, some NICs
      are still not capable of hashing on the inner hdr of a GRE pkt (RSS).
      In that case the GRO processing of pkts from the same remote host will
      all happen on the same CPU and the performance may be suboptimal.
      
      I'm including some rough preliminary performance numbers below. Note
      that the performance will be highly dependent on traffic load, mix as
      usual. Moreover it also depends on NIC offload features hence the
      following is by no means a comprehesive study. Local testing and tuning
      will be needed to decide the best setting.
      
      All tests spawned 50 copies of netperf TCP_STREAM and ran for 30 secs.
      (super_netperf 50 -H 192.168.1.18 -l 30)
      
      An IP GRE tunnel with only the key flag on (e.g., ip tunnel add gre1
      mode gre local 10.246.17.18 remote 10.246.17.17 ttl 255 key 123)
      is configured.
      
      The GRO support for pkts AFTER decap are controlled through the device
      feature of the GRE device (e.g., ethtool -K gre1 gro on/off).
      
      1.1 ethtool -K gre1 gro off; ethtool -K eth0 gro off

      The following tests were performed on a different NIC that is capable of
      csum offload. I.e., the h/w is capable of computing IP payload csum
      (CHECKSUM_COMPLETE).

      ipv4: fix tunneled VM traffic over hw VXLAN/GRE GSO NIC · 7a7ffbab
      Wei-Chun Chao 提交于
      VM to VM GSO traffic is broken if it goes through VXLAN or GRE
      tunnel and the physical NIC on the host supports hardware VXLAN/GRE
      GSO offload (e.g. bnx2x and next-gen mlx4).
      
      Two issues -
      (VXLAN) VM traffic has SKB_GSO_DODGY and SKB_GSO_UDP_TUNNEL with
      SKB_GSO_TCP/UDP set depending on the inner protocol. GSO header
      integrity check fails in udp4_ufo_fragment if inner protocol is
      TCP. Also gso_segs is calculated incorrectly using skb->len that
      includes tunnel header. Fix: robust check should only be applied
      to the inner packet.
      
      (VXLAN & GRE) Once GSO header integrity check passes, NULL segs
      is returned and the original skb is sent to hardware. However the
      tunnel header is already pulled. Fix: tunnel header needs to be
      restored so that hardware can perform GSO properly on the original
      packet.

      gso: Update tunnel segmentation to support Tx checksum offload · cdbaa0bb
      Alexander Duyck 提交于
      This change makes it so that the GRE and VXLAN tunnels can make use of Tx
      checksum offload support provided by some drivers via the hw_enc_features.
      Without this fix enabling GSO means sacrificing Tx checksum offload and
      this actually leads to a performance regression as shown below:
      
                  Utilization
                  Send
      Throughput  local         GSO
      10^6bits/s  % S           state
        6276.51   8.39          enabled
        7123.52   8.42          disabled
      
      To resolve this it was necessary to address two items.  First
      netif_skb_features needed to be updated so that it would correctly handle
      the Trans Ether Bridging protocol without impacting the need to check for
      Q-in-Q tagging.  To do this it was necessary to update harmonize_features
      so that it used skb_network_protocol instead of just using the outer
      protocol.
      
      Second it was necessary to update the GRE and UDP tunnel segmentation
      offloads so that they would reset the encapsulation bit and inner header
      offsets after the offload was complete.
      
      As a result of this change I have seen the following results on a interface
      with Tx checksum enabled for encapsulated frames:
      
                  Utilization
                  Send
      Throughput  local         GSO
      10^6bits/s  % S           state
        7123.52   8.42          disabled
        8321.75   5.43          enabled
      
      v2: Instead of replacing refrence to skb->protocol with
          skb_network_protocol just replace the protocol reference in
          harmonize_features to allow for double VLAN tag checks.
