      ipvlan: implement VEPA mode · fe89aa6b
      由 Mahesh Bandewar 提交于 
      This is very similar to the Macvlan VEPA mode, however, there is some
difference. IPvlan uses the mac-address of the lower device, so the VEPA
mode has implications of ICMP-redirects for packets destined for its
immediate neighbors sharing same master since the packets will have same
source and dest mac. The external switch/router will send redirect msg.

Having said that, this will be useful tool in terms of debugging
since IPvlan will not switch packets within its slaves and rely completely
on the external entity as intended in 802.1Qbg.

      ipvlan: introduce 'private' attribute for all existing modes. · a190d04d
      由 Mahesh Bandewar 提交于 
      IPvlan has always operated in bridge mode. However there are scenarios
where each slave should be able to talk through the master device but
not necessarily across each other. Think of an environment where each
of a namespace is a private and independant customer. In this scenario
the machine which is hosting these namespaces neither want to tell who
their neighbor is nor the individual namespaces care to talk to neighbor
on short-circuited network path.

This patch implements the mode that is very similar to the 'private' mode
in macvlan where individual slaves can send and receive traffic through
the master device, just that they can not talk among slave devices.

      liquidio: get rid of false alarm "Unknown cmd 27" in dmesg · 641da8ed
      由 Felix Manlunas 提交于 
      Creating a macvtap interface with the liquidio VF driver as lower device
causes this alarming message to show up in dmesg:

    liquidio_link_ctrl_cmd_completion Unknown cmd 27

That's actually a false alarm because cmd 27 is the value of the macro
OCTNET_CMD_SET_UC_LIST which is known.  It's a control command sent from
host to NIC firmware to set the unicast MAC address list of the macvtap
lower device.

Make the false alarm go away by adding a case for OCTNET_CMD_SET_UC_LIST
in liquidio_link_ctrl_cmd_completion().

send indirection table updates. This patch sets the table to be
equal weight after subchannels are all open. Otherwise, all workload
will be on one TX channel.

As tested, this patch has largely increased the throughput over

      r8169: Add support for interrupt coalesce tuning (ethtool -C) · 50970831
      由 Francois Romieu 提交于 
      Kirr: In particular with

	ethtool -C <ifname> rx-usecs 0 rx-frames 0

now it is possible to disable RX delays when NIC usage requires low-latency.

See this thread for context:

	https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg217665.html

My specific case is that:

We have many computers with gigabit Realtek NICs. For 2 such computers
connected to a gigabit store-and-forward switch the minimum round-trip
time for small pings (`ping -i 0 -w 3 -s 56 -q peer`) is ~ 30μs.

However it turned out that when Ethernet frame length transitions 127 ->
128 bytes (`ping -i 0 -w 3 -s {81 -> 82} -q peer`) the lowest RTT
transitions step-wise to ~ 270μs.

As David Light said this is RX interrupt mitigation done by NIC which creates
the latency. For workloads when low-latency is required with e.g. Intel,
BCM etc NIC drivers one just uses `ethtool -C rx-usecs ...` to reduce
the time NIC delays before interrupting CPU, but it turned out
`ethtool -C` is not supported by r8169 driver.

Like Stéphane ANCELOT I've traced the problem down to IntrMitigate being
hardcoded to != 0 for our chips (we have 8168 based NICs):

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/net/ethernet/realtek/r8169.c#n5460
static void rtl_hw_start_8169(struct net_device *dev) {
        ...
        /*
         * Undocumented corner. Supposedly:
         * (TxTimer << 12) | (TxPackets << 8) | (RxTimer << 4) | RxPackets
         */
        RTL_W16(IntrMitigate, 0x0000);

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/net/ethernet/realtek/r8169.c#n6346
static void rtl_hw_start_8168(struct net_device *dev) {
        ...
        RTL_W16(IntrMitigate, 0x5151);

and then I've also found

	https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg217665.html

and original Francois' patch:

	https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg217984.html
	https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg218207.html

So could we please finally get support for tuning r8169 interrupt
coalescing in tree? (so that next poor soul who hits the problem does
not need to go all the way to dig into driver sources and internet
wildly and finally patch locally

        -RTL_W16(IntrMitigate, 0x5151);
        +RTL_W16(IntrMitigate, 0x5100);

guessing whether it is right or not and also having to care to deploy
the patch everywhere it needs to be used, etc...).

To do so I've took original Francois's patch from 2012 and reworked it a bit:

- updated to latest net-next.git;
- adjusted scaling setup based on feedback from Hayes to pick up scaling
  vector depending not only on link speed but also on CPlusCmd[0:1] and to
  adjust CPlusCmd[0:1] correspondingly when setting timings;
- improved a bit (I think so) error handling.

I've tested the patch on "RTL8168d/8111d" (XID 083000c0) and with it and
`ethtool -C rx-usecs 0 rx-frames 0` on both ends it improves:

- minimum RTT latency:

        ~270μs ->  ~30μs (small packet),
        ~330μs -> ~110μs (full 1.5K ethernet frame)

- average RTT latency:

        ~480μs ->  ~50μs (small packet),
        ~560μs -> ~125μs (full 1.5K ethernet frame)

  the small -> 1.5K latency growth is understandable as it takes ~15μs
  to transmit 1.5K on 1Gbps on the wire and with 2 hosts and 1 switch
  and ICMP ECHO + ECHO reply the packet has to travel 4 ethernet
  segments which is already 60μs;

  probably something a bit else is also there as e.g. on Linux, even
  with `cpupower frequency-set -g performance`, on some computers I've
  noticed the kernel can be spending more time in software-only mode
  when incoming packets go in less frequently. E.g. this program can
  demonstrate the effect for ICMP ECHO processing:

  https://lab.nexedi.com/kirr/bcc/blob/43cfc13b/tools/pinglat.py

  (later this was found to be partly due to C-states exit latencies) )

We have this patch running in our testing setup for 1 months already
without any issues observed.

It remains to be clarified whether RX and TX timers use the same base.
For now I've set them equally, but Francois's original patch version
suggests it could be not the same.

I've got no feedback at all to my original posting of this patch and questions

	https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg457173.html

neither from Francois, nor from any people from Realtek during one month.

So I suggest we simply apply it to net-next.git now.
