Testing xmit_more support with netperf and connected UDP sockets, I found strange dst refcount false sharing. Current handling of IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE is not optimal. Dropping dst in validate_xmit_skb() is certainly too late in case packet was queued by cpu X but dequeued by cpu Y The logical point to take care of drop/force is in __dev_queue_xmit() before even taking qdisc lock. As Julian Anastasov pointed out, need for skb_dst() might come from some packet schedulers or classifiers. This patch adds new helper to cleanly express needs of various drivers or qdiscs/classifiers. Drivers that need skb_dst() in their ndo_start_xmit() should call following helper in their setup instead of the prior : dev->priv_flags &= ~IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE; -> netif_keep_dst(dev); Instead of using a single bit, we use two bits, one being eventually rebuilt in bonding/team drivers. The other one, is permanent and blocks IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE being rebuilt in bonding/team. Eventually, we could add something smarter later.

Standard qdisc API to setup a timer implies an atomic operation on every packet dequeue : qdisc_unthrottled() It turns out this is not really needed for FQ, as FQ has no concept of global qdisc throttling, being a qdisc handling many different flows, some of them can be throttled, while others are not. Fix is straightforward : add a 'bool throttle' to qdisc_watchdog_schedule_ns(), and remove calls to qdisc_unthrottled() in sch_fq.

Currently, the flow information that is matched for tunnels and the tunnel data passed around with packets is the same. However, as additional information is added this is not necessarily desirable, as in the case of pointers. This adds a new structure for tunnel metadata which currently contains only the existing struct. This change is purely internal to the kernel since the current OVS_KEY_ATTR_IPV4_TUNNEL is simply a compressed version of OVS_KEY_ATTR_TUNNEL that is translated at flow setup.

Currently association restarts do not take into consideration the state of the socket. When a restart happens, the current assocation simply transitions into established state. This creates a condition where a remote system, through a the restart procedure, may create a local association that is no way reachable by user. The conditions to trigger this are as follows: 1) Remote does not acknoledge some data causing data to remain outstanding. 2) Local application calls close() on the socket. Since data is still outstanding, the association is placed in SHUTDOWN_PENDING state. However, the socket is closed. 3) The remote tries to create a new association, triggering a restart on the local system. The association moves from SHUTDOWN_PENDING to ESTABLISHED. At this point, it is no longer reachable by any socket on the local system. This patch addresses the above situation by moving the newly ESTABLISHED association into SHUTDOWN-SENT state and bundling a SHUTDOWN after the COOKIE-ACK chunk. This way, the restarted associate immidiately enters the shutdown procedure and forces the termination of the unreachable association.

SKB_FCLONE_UNAVAILABLE has overloaded meaning depending on type of skb. 1: If skb is allocated from head_cache, it indicates fclone is not available. 2: If skb is a companion fclone skb (allocated from fclone_cache), it indicates it is available to be used. To avoid confusion for case 2 above, this patch replaces SKB_FCLONE_UNAVAILABLE with SKB_FCLONE_FREE where appropriate. For fclone companion skbs, this indicates it is free for use. SKB_FCLONE_UNAVAILABLE will now simply indicate skb is from head_cache and cannot / will not have a companion fclone.

Validation of skb can be pretty expensive : GSO segmentation and/or checksum computations. We can do this without holding qdisc lock, so that other cpus can queue additional packets. Trick is that requeued packets were already validated, so we carry a boolean so that sch_direct_xmit() can validate a fresh skb list, or directly use an old one. Tested on 40Gb NIC (8 TX queues) and 200 concurrent flows, 48 threads host. Turning TSO on or off had no effect on throughput, only few more cpu cycles. Lock contention on qdisc lock disappeared.

由 Jesper Dangaard Brouer 提交于
Based on DaveM's recent API work on dev_hard_start_xmit(), that allows sending/processing an entire skb list. This patch implements qdisc bulk dequeue, by allowing multiple packets to be dequeued in dequeue_skb(). The optimization principle for this is two fold, (1) to amortize locking cost and (2) avoid expensive tailptr update for notifying HW. (1) Several packets are dequeued while holding the qdisc root_lock, amortizing locking cost over several packet. The dequeued SKB list is processed under the TXQ lock in dev_hard_start_xmit(), thus also amortizing the cost of the TXQ lock. (2) Further more, dev_hard_start_xmit() will utilize the skb->xmit_more API to delay HW tailptr update, which also reduces the cost per packet. One restriction of the new API is that every SKB must belong to the same TXQ. This patch takes the easy way out, by restricting bulk dequeue to qdisc's with the TCQ_F_ONETXQUEUE flag, that specifies the qdisc only have attached a single TXQ. Some detail about the flow; dev_hard_start_xmit() will process the skb list, and transmit packets individually towards the driver (see xmit_one()). In case the driver stops midway in the list, the remaining skb list is returned by dev_hard_start_xmit(). In sch_direct_xmit() this returned list is requeued by dev_requeue_skb(). To avoid overshooting the HW limits, which results in requeuing, the patch limits the amount of bytes dequeued, based on the drivers BQL limits. In-effect bulking will only happen for BQL enabled drivers. Small amounts for extra HoL blocking (2x MTU/0.24ms) were measured at 100Mbit/s, with bulking 8 packets, but the oscillating nature of the measurement indicate something, like sched latency might be causing this effect. More comparisons show, that this oscillation goes away occationally. Thus, we disregard this artifact completely and remove any "magic" bulking limit. For now, as a conservative approach, stop bulking when seeing TSO and segmented GSO packets. They already benefit from bulking on their own. A followup patch add this, to allow easier bisect-ability for finding regressions. Jointed work with Hannes, Daniel and Florian.

You can use physdev to match the physical interface enslaved to the bridge device. This information is stored in skb->nf_bridge and it is set up by br_netfilter. So, this is only available when iptables is used from the bridge netfilter path. Since 34666d46 ("netfilter: bridge: move br_netfilter out of the core"), the br_netfilter code is modular.
