      net_sched: gen_estimator: complete rewrite of rate estimators · 1c0d32fd
      Eric Dumazet 提交于
      1) Old code was hard to maintain, due to complex lock chains.
         (We probably will be able to remove some kfree_rcu() in callers)
      
      2) Using a single timer to update all estimators does not scale.
      
      3) Code was buggy on 32bit kernel (WRITE_ONCE() on 64bit quantity
         is not supposed to work well)
      
      In this rewrite :
      
      - I removed the RB tree that had to be scanned in
        gen_estimator_active(). qdisc dumps should be much faster.
      
      - Each estimator has its own timer.
      
      - Estimations are maintained in net_rate_estimator structure,
        instead of dirtying the qdisc. Minor, but part of the simplification.
      
      - Reading the estimator uses RCU and a seqcount to provide proper
        support for 32bit kernels.
      
      - We reduce memory need when estimators are not used, since
        we store a pointer, instead of the bytes/packets counters.
      
      - xt_rateest_mt() no longer has to grab a spinlock.
        (In the future, xt_rateest_tg() could be switched to per cpu counters)
