Jesse Gross [Wed, 20 Oct 2010 13:56:06 +0000 (13:56 +0000)]
vlan: Centralize handling of hardware acceleration.

Currently each driver that is capable of vlan hardware acceleration
must be aware of the vlan groups that are configured and then pass
the stripped tag to a specialized receive function.  This is

different from other types of hardware offload in that it places a
significant amount of knowledge in the driver itself rather keeping
it in the networking core.

This makes vlan offloading function more similarly to other forms
of offloading (such as checksum offloading or TSO) by doing the
following:
* On receive, stripped vlans are passed directly to the network
core, without attempting to check for vlan groups or reconstructing
the header if no group
* vlans are made less special by folding the logic into the main
receive routines
* On transmit, the device layer will add the vlan header in software
if the hardware doesn't support it, instead of spreading that logic
out in upper layers, such as bonding.

There are a number of advantages to this:
* Fixes all bugs with drivers incorrectly dropping vlan headers at once.
* Avoids having to disable VLAN acceleration when in promiscuous mode
(good for bridging since it always puts devices in promiscuous mode).
* Keeps VLAN tag separate until given to ultimate consumer, which
avoids needing to do header reconstruction as in tg3 unless absolutely
necessary.
* Consolidates common code in core networking.

It occurs because of my recent netpoll blocking patches, which I added to avoid
recursive deadlock in the bonding driver.  It relies on some per cpu bits, but
the shutdown path forces some rescheduling as we cancel workqueues for the
driver and wait for some device refcounts.  If after the forced reschedule, we
wind up on a different cpu we trigger the bughalt in unblock_netpoll_tx.

The fix is to remove the netpoll block/unblock calls from bond_release_all.
This is safe to do because bond_uninit, which is called via ndo_uninit in
rollback_registered_many, doesn't occur until we send a NETDEV_UNREGISTER event,
which triggers netconsole to remove us as a netpoll client, so we are guaranteed
not to recurse into our own tx path here.

The solution is to use a per cpu flag internal to the driver to indicate when a
cpu is holding the lock in a path that might recusrse into the tx path for the

14 years agonet: allocate skbs on local node
Eric Dumazet [Mon, 11 Oct 2010 19:05:25 +0000 (19:05 +0000)]
net: allocate skbs on local node

commit b30973f877 (node-aware skb allocation) spread a wrong habit of
allocating net drivers skbs on a given memory node : The one closest to
the NIC hardware. This is wrong because as soon as we try to scale
network stack, we need to use many cpus to handle traffic and hit
slub/slab management on cross-node allocations/frees when these cpus
have to alloc/free skbs bound to a central node.

skb allocated in RX path are ephemeral, they have a very short
lifetime : Extra cost to maintain NUMA affinity is too expensive. What
appeared as a nice idea four years ago is in fact a bad one.

In 2010, NIC hardwares are multiqueue, or we use RPS to spread the load,
and two 10Gb NIC might deliver more than 28 million packets per second,
needing all the available cpus.

Cost of cross-node handling in network and vm stacks outperforms the
small benefit hardware had when doing its DMA transfert in its 'local'
memory node at RX time. Even trying to differentiate the two allocations
done for one skb (the sk_buff on local node, the data part on NIC
hardware node) is not enough to bring good performance.

14 years agor8169: use 50% less ram for RX ring
Eric Dumazet [Mon, 11 Oct 2010 11:17:47 +0000 (11:17 +0000)]
r8169: use 50% less ram for RX ring

Using standard skb allocations in r8169 leads to order-3 allocations (if
PAGE_SIZE=4096), because NIC needs 16383 bytes, and skb overhead makes
this bigger than 16384 -> 32768 bytes per "skb"

Using kmalloc() permits to reduce memory requirements of one r8169 nic
by 4Mbytes. (256 frames * 16Kbytes). This is fine since a hardware bug
requires us to copy incoming frames, so we build real skb when doing
this copy.
