This patch simplifies label naming for the BPF jump-table. When we define labels via DL(), we just concatenate/textify the combination of instruction opcode which consists of the class, subclass, word size, target register and so on. Each time we leave BPF_ prefix intact, so that e.g. the preprocessor generates a label BPF_ALU_BPF_ADD_BPF_X for DL(BPF_ALU, BPF_ADD, BPF_X) whereas a label name of ALU_ADD_X is much more easy to grasp. Pure cleanup only. Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <dborkman@redhat.com> Acked-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@plumgrid.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Yuchung discovered tcp_is_cwnd_limited() was returning false in slow start phase even if the application filled the socket write queue. All congestion modules take into account tcp_is_cwnd_limited() before increasing cwnd, so this behavior limits slow start from probing the bandwidth at full speed. The problem is that even if write queue is full (aka we are _not_ application limited), cwnd can be under utilized if TSO should auto defer or TCP Small queues decided to hold packets. So the in_flight can be kept to smaller value, and we can get to the point tcp_is_cwnd_limited() returns false. With TCP Small Queues and FQ/pacing, this issue is more visible. We fix this by having tcp_cwnd_validate(), which is supposed to track such things, take into account unsent_segs, the number of segs that we are not sending at the moment due to TSO or TSQ, but intend to send real soon. Then when we are cwnd-limited, remember this fact while we are processing the window of ACKs that comes back. For example, suppose we have a brand new connection with cwnd=10; we are in slow start, and we send a flight of 9 packets. By the time we have received ACKs for all 9 packets we want our cwnd to be 18. We implement this by setting tp->lsnd_pending to 9, and considering ourselves to be cwnd-limited while cwnd is less than twice tp->lsnd_pending (2*9 -> 18). This makes tcp_is_cwnd_limited() more understandable, by removing the GSO/TSO kludge, that tried to work around the issue. Note the in_flight parameter can be removed in a followup cleanup patch.

We send packets using a copy-free mechanism (this is the Guest to Host transport via VMBUS). While this is obviously optimal for large packets, it may not be optimal for small packets. Hyper-V host supports a second mechanism for sending packets that is "copy based". We implement that mechanism in this patch. In this version of the patch I have addressed a comment from David Miller. With this patch (and all of the other offload and VRSS patches), we are now able to almost saturate a 10G interface between Linux VMs on Hyper-V on different hosts - close to 9 Gbps as measured via iperf.

This is a small supplement for commit e7428e95 ("virtio-net: put virtio-net header inline with data"). TCP packages have enough room to put virtio-net header in, but UDP packages do not. By setting dev->needed_headroom for virtio-net device, UDP packages could have enough room. For UDP packages, sk_buff is alloced in fun __ip_append_data. The size is "alloclen + hh_len + 15", and "hh_len = LL_RESERVED_SPACE(rt-dst.dev);". The Macro is defined as follows: #define LL_RESERVED_SPACE(dev) \ ((((dev)->hard_header_len+(dev)->needed_headroom)\ &~(HH_DATA_MOD - 1)) + HH_DATA_MOD) By default, for UDP packages, after skb is allocated, only 16 bytes reserved. And 2 bytes remained after mac header is set. That is not enough to put virtio-net header in. If we set dev->needed_headroom to 12 or 10 (according to mergeable_rx_bufs is on or off ), more room can be reserved. Then there is enough room for UDP packages to put the header in. test result list as below: guest and host: suse11sp3, netperf, intel 2.4GHz +-------+---------+---------+---------+---------+ | | old | new | +-------+---------+---------+---------+---------+ | UDP | Gbit/s | pps | Gbit/s | pps | | 64 | 0.57 | 692232 | 0.61 | 742420 | | 256 | 1.60 | 686860 | 1.71 | 733331 | | 512 | 2.92 | 674576 | 3.07 | 710446 | | 1024 | 4.99 | 598977 | 5.17 | 620821 | | 1460 | 5.68 | 483757 | 7.16 | 610519 | | 4096 | 6.98 | 637468 | 7.21 | 658471 | +-------+---------+---------+---------+---------+ Signed-off-by: Zhang Jie <zhangjie14@huawei.com> Acked-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Acked-by: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com> Acked-by: Michael S.

Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf. Jacob provides a i40e patch to remove ptp_tx_work() because it conflicts with the interrupt-based handler and will cause spurious warning messages to be displayed in the kernel log. Since the hardware can properly trigger an interrupt, we do not need to poll for an available timestamp in a work queue any more. Greg provides two patches for i40e, first to retain the MAC filter list when changing a port VLAN. Second fixes an issue where the function to set the VF MAC address was not taking the port VLAN filter into account when setting/clearing/resetting the VF's host administered MAC address. Mitch provides three patches for i40evf, first adds support for getting and setting RSS hashing options, RSS LUT entries, and getting the number of device channels from ethtool. Fixes a panic that woudl occur in the VF if the PF driver failed or was removed from the host kernel. Shannon adds driver version string to the driver version command so that can be passed down through the firmware to low-level NC-SI functions. Neerav provides several patches, first redistributes queue vectors after DCB reconfiguration because the total number of queues that are configured for a VSI may change based on a change in the total number of TCs enabled as a result of a change in the DCB configuration based on DCBX. Second, allows the driver probe to continue when querying DCB config fails. Lastly, provides changes to retrieve and store missing link config information that was not being cached in the struct i40e_link_status. Kevin provides a couple of patches, first to change a int variable type to u16 to avoid a typecheck failure. Second to update a function parameters to remove an argument which is no longer used. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

However, neither mode will reset the default default_out_queue value when enabled, leaving a previously set value activate as the default.
