Saeed Mahameed says: ==================== mlx5e-updates-2018-09-05 This series provides updates to mlx5 ethernet driver. 1) Starting with a four patches series to optimize flow counters updates, From Vlad Buslov: ============================================== By default mlx5 driver updates cached counters each second. Update function consumes noticeable amount of CPU resources. The goal of this patch series is to optimize update function. Investigation revealed following bottlenecks in fs counters implementation: 1) Update code(scheduled each second) iterates over all counters twice. (first for finding and deleting counters that are marked for deletion, second iteration is for actually updating the counters) 2) Counters are stored in rb tree. Linear iteration over all rb tree elements(rb_next in profiling data) consumed ~65% of time spent in update function. Following optimizations were implemented: 1) Instead of just marking counters for deletion, store them in standalone list. This removes first iteration over whole counters tree. 2) Store counters in sorted list to optimize traversing them and remove calls to rb_next. First implementation of these changes caused degradation of performance, instead of improving it. Investigation revealed that there first cache line of struct mlx5_fc is full and adding anything to it causes amount of cache misses to double. To mitigate that, following refactorings were implemented: - Change 'addlist' list type from double linked to single linked. This allowes to get free space for one additional pointer that is used to store deletion list(optimization 1) - Substitute rb tree with idr. Idr is non-intrusive data structure and doesn't require adding any new members to struct mlx5_fc. Use free space that became available for double linked sorted list that is used for traversing all counters. (optimization 2) Described changes reduced CPU time spent in mlx5_fc_stats_work from 70% to 44%. (global perf profile mode) ============================================ The rest of the series are misc updates: 2) From Kamal, Move mlx5e_priv_flags into en_ethtool.c, to avoid a compilation warning. 3) From Roi Dayan, Move Q counters allocation and drop RQ to init_rx profile function to avoid allocating Q counters when not required. 4) From Shay Agroskin, Replace PTP clock lock from RW lock to seq lock. Almost double the packet rate when timestamping is active on multiple TX queues. 5) From: Natali Shechtman, set ECN for received packets using CQE indication. 6) From: Alaa Hleihel, don't set CHECKSUM_COMPLETE on SCTP packets. CHECKSUM_COMPLETE is not applicable to SCTP protocol. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Changes in v3: - properly hunk the request_threaded_irq() bits into patch #2 Changes in v2: - migrate to threaded interrupt (Andrew) - fixed a case where MLO_AN_FIXED's mac_config would still call into the serdes_config callback - added an additional check on the phylink interface in mac_config - default to ARCH_BCM_NSP instead of ARCH_BCM_IPROC which is really the NSP Kconfig bit we want ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Add support for the Northstar Plus SerDes which is accessed through a special page of the switch. Since this is something that most people probably will not want to use, make it a configurable option with a default on ARCH_BCM_NSP where it is the most useful currently. The SerDes supports both SGMII and 1000baseX modes for both lanes, and 2500baseX for one of the lanes, and is internally looking like a seemingly standard MII PHY, except for the few bits that got repurposed.

Christian Brauner says: ==================== rtnetlink: add IFA_TARGET_NETNSID for RTM_GETADDR This iteration should mainly addresses the suggestion to use IFA_TARGET_NETNSID as the property name. Additionally, an an alias for the already existing IFLA_IF_NETNSID property is added. Note that two additional cleanup patches (8\9 and 9\9) were added to address concerns raised that passing more than 6 arguments to a function will cause additional variables to be pushed onto the stack instead of being placed into registers. The way I addressed this is by introducing two new struct inet{6}_fill_args that are used to pass common information down to inet{6}_fill_if*() functions shortening all those functions to three pointer arguments. If this is something more people than Kirill find useful they can be kept if not they can simply be dropped in later iterations of this series or when merging. Here is a short overview: 1. Rename from IFA_IF_NETNSID to IFA_TARGET_NETNSID. 2. Add IFLA_TARGET_NETNSID as an alias for IFA_IFLA_NETNSID and switch all occurrences over to the new alias. 3. Add inet4_fill_args struct to avoid passing more than 6 arguments in inet_fill_if*() functions. 4. Add inet6_fill_args struct to avoid passing more than 6 arguments in inet_fill_if*() functions. The only functional change is the export of rtnl_get_net_ns_capable() which is needed in case ipv6 is built as a module. Note, I did not change the property name to IFA_TARGET_NSID as there was no clear agreement what would be preferred. My personal preference is to keep the IFA_IF_NETNSID name because it aligns naturally with the IFLA_IF_NETNSID property for RTM_*LINK requests. Jiri seems to prefer this name too. However, if there is agreement that another property name makes more sense I'm happy to send a v2 that changes this. To test this patchset I performed 1 million getifaddrs() requests against a network namespace containing 5 interfaces (lo, eth{0-4}). The first test used a network namespace aware getifaddrs() implementation I wrote and the second test used the traditional setns() + getifaddrs() method. The results show that this patchsets allows userspace to cut retrieval time in half: 1. netns_getifaddrs(): 82 microseconds 2. setns() + getifaddrs(): 162 microseconds A while back we introduced and enabled IFLA_IF_NETNSID in RTM_{DEL,GET,NEW}LINK requests (cf. [1], [2], [3], [4], [5]). This has led to signficant performance increases since it allows userspace to avoid taking the hit of a setns(netns_fd, CLONE_NEWNET), then getting the interfaces from the netns associated with the netns_fd. Especially when a lot of network namespaces are in use, using setns() becomes increasingly problematic when performance matters. Usually, RTML_GETLINK requests are followed by RTM_GETADDR requests (cf. getifaddrs() style functions and friends). But currently, RTM_GETADDR requests do not support a similar property like IFLA_IF_NETNSID for RTM_*LINK requests. This is problematic since userspace can retrieve interfaces from another network namespace by sending a IFLA_IF_NETNSID property along but RTM_GETLINK request but is still forced to use the legacy setns() style of retrieving interfaces in RTM_GETADDR requests. The goal of this series is to make it possible to perform RTM_GETADDR requests on different network namespaces. To this end a new IFA_IF_NETNSID property for RTM_*ADDR requests is introduced. It can be used to send a network namespace identifier along in RTM_*ADDR requests. The network namespace identifier will be used to retrieve the target network namespace in which the request is supposed to be fulfilled. This aligns the behavior of RTM_*ADDR requests with the behavior of RTM_*LINK requests. - The caller must have assigned a valid network namespace identifier for the target network namespace. - The caller must have CAP_NET_ADMIN in the owning user namespace of the target network namespace.

Currently, the only way to ignore outgoing packets on a packet socket is via the BPF filter. With MSG_ZEROCOPY, packets that are looped into AF_PACKET are copied in dev_queue_xmit_nit(), and this copy happens even if the filter run from packet_rcv() would reject them. So the presence of a packet socket on the interface takes away the benefits of MSG_ZEROCOPY, even if the packet socket is not interested in outgoing packets. (Even when MSG_ZEROCOPY is not used, the skb is unnecessarily cloned, but the cost for that is much lower.) Add a socket option to allow AF_PACKET sockets to ignore outgoing packets to solve this. Note that the *BSDs already have something similar: BIOCSSEESENT/BIOCSDIRECTION and BIOCSDIRFILT. The first intended user is lldpd.

The HW uses a mechanism in the PCIe buffer which monitors the amount of consumed PCIe buffers per host. On a certain configuration, under congestion, the HW emulates a switch doing ECN marking on packets using ECN indication on the completion descriptor (CQE).

Changed "priv.clock.lock" lock from 'rw_lock' to 'seq_lock' in order to improve packet rate performance. Tested on Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2660 v2 @ 2.20GHz. Sent 64b packets between two peers connected by ConnectX-5, and measured packet rate for the receiver in three modes: no time-stamping (base rate) time-stamping using rw_lock (old lock) for critical region time-stamping using seq_lock (new lock) for critical region Only the receiver time stamped its packets. The measured packet rate improvements are: Single flow (multiple TX rings to single RX ring): without timestamping: 4.26 (M packets)/sec with rw-lock (old lock): 4.1 (M packets)/sec with seq-lock (new lock): 4.16 (M packets)/sec 1.46% improvement Multiple flows (multiple TX rings to six RX rings): without timestamping: 22 (M packets)/sec with rw-lock (old lock): 11.7 (M packets)/sec with seq-lock (new lock): 21.3 (M packets)/sec 82.05% improvement The packet rate improvement is due to the lack of atomic operations for the 'readers' by the seq-lock. Since there are much more 'readers' than 'writers' contention on this lock, almost all atomic operations are saved. this results in a dramatic decrease in overall cache misses.

Previous patch in series changed flow counter storage structure from rb_tree to linked list in order to improve flow counter traversal performance. The drawback of such solution is that flow counter lookup by id becomes linear in complexity. Store pointers to flow counters in idr in order to improve lookup performance to logarithmic again. Idr is non-intrusive data structure and doesn't require extending flow counter struct with new elements. This means that idr can be used for lookup, while linked list from previous patch is used for traversal, and struct mlx5_fc size is <= 2 cache lines.

In order to improve performance of flow counter stats query loop that traverses all configured flow counters, replace rb_tree with double-linked list. This change improves performance of traversing flow counters by removing the tree traversal. (profiling data showed that call to rb_next was most top CPU consumer) However, lookup of flow flow counter in list becomes linear, instead of logarithmic. This problem is fixed by next patch in series, which adds idr for fast lookup. Idr is to be used because it is not an intrusive data structure and doesn't require adding any new members to struct mlx5_fc, which allows its control data part to stay <= 1 cache line in size.

In order to prevent flow counters stats work function from traversing whole flow counters tree while searching for deleted flow counters, new list to store deleted flow counters is added to struct mlx5_fc_stats. Lockless NULL-terminated single linked list data type is used due to following reasons: - This use case only needs to add single element to list and remove/iterate whole list. Lockless list doesn't require any additional synchronization for these operations. - First cache line of flow counter data structure only has space to store single additional pointer, which precludes usage of double linked list. Remove flow counter 'deleted' flag that is no longer needed.
