16 years agobridge: Eliminate unnecessary forward delay
Stephen Hemminger [Wed, 6 Aug 2008 01:42:51 +0000 (18:42 -0700)]
bridge: Eliminate unnecessary forward delay

From: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com>

Based upon original patch by Herbert Xu, which contained
the following problem description:

--------------------
When the forward delay is set to zero, we still delay the setting
of the forwarding state by one or possibly two timers depending
on whether STP is enabled.  This could either turn out to be
instantaneous, or horribly slow depending on the load of the
machine.

As there is nothing preventing us from enabling forwarding straight
away, this patch eliminates this potential delay by executing the
code directly if the forward delay is zero.

The effect of this problem is that immediately after the carrier
comes on a port, the bridge will drop all packets received from
that port until it enters forwarding mode, thus causing unnecessary
packet loss.

Note that this patch doesn't fully remove the delay due to the
link watcher.  We should also check the carrier state when we
are about to drop an incoming packet because the port is disabled.
But that's for another patch.
--------------------

This version of the fix takes a different approach, in that
it just does the state change directly.

net_sched: Add qdisc __NET_XMIT_STOLEN flag

Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> noticed:
"The other problem that affects all qdiscs supporting actions is
TC_ACT_QUEUED/TC_ACT_STOLEN getting mapped to NET_XMIT_SUCCESS
even though the packet is not queued, corrupting upper qdiscs'
qlen counters."

and later explained:
"The reason why it translates it at all seems to be to not increase
the drops counter. Within a single qdisc this could be avoided by
other means easily, upper qdiscs would still increase the counter
when we return anything besides NET_XMIT_SUCCESS though.

This means we need a new NET_XMIT return value to indicate this to
the upper qdiscs. So I'd suggest to introduce NET_XMIT_STOLEN,
return that to upper qdiscs and translate it to NET_XMIT_SUCCESS
in dev_queue_xmit, similar to NET_XMIT_BYPASS."

David Miller <davem@davemloft.net> noticed:
"Maybe these NET_XMIT_* values being passed around should be a set of
bits. They could be composed of base meanings, combined with specific
attributes.

So you could say "NET_XMIT_DROP | __NET_XMIT_NO_DROP_COUNT"

The attributes get masked out by the top-level ->enqueue() caller,
such that the base meanings are the only thing that make their
way up into the stack. If it's only about communication within the
qdisc tree, let's simply code it that way."

This patch is trying to realize these ideas.

sctp: Drop ipfargok in sctp_xmit function

The ipfragok flag controls whether the packet may be fragmented
either on the local host on beyond.  The latter is only valid on
IPv4.

In fact, we never want to do the latter even on IPv4 when PMTU is
enabled.  This is because even though we can't fragment packets
within SCTP due to the prtocol's inherent faults, we can still
fragment it at IP layer.  By setting the DF bit we will improve
the PMTU process.

RFC 2960 only says that we SHOULD clear the DF bit in this case,
so we're compliant even if we set the DF bit.  In fact RFC 4960
no longer has this statement.

Once we make this change, we only need to control the local
fragmentation.  There is already a bit in the skb which controls
that, local_df.  So this patch sets that instead of using the
ipfragok argument.

The only complication is that there isn't a struct sock object
per transport, so for IPv4 we have to resort to changing the
pmtudisc field for every packet.  This should be safe though
as the protocol is single-threaded.

Note that after this patch we can remove ipfragok from the rest
of the stack too.

Using snprintf() meant that my "len" could grow to be more than the

49292d56352a6ab90d04c3448dd8b6106dfef2d6 that introduced the power

it was realized that it was possible for mac80211 to make a call to the
config routine while that routine was already being executed. On this
device, it is necessary to loopback the TX when changing channels. Unless
this is properly restored, the device will lockup. A mutex now protects
the device state, and the private data in several places.
