2011-02-02sched: CHOKe flow schedulerstephen hemminger3-0/+689
CHOKe ("CHOose and Kill" or "CHOose and Keep") is an alternative packet scheduler based on the Random Exponential Drop (RED) algorithm. The core idea is: For every packet arrival: Calculate Qave if (Qave < minth) Queue the new packet else Select randomly a packet from the queue if (both packets from same flow) then Drop both the packets else if (Qave > maxth) Drop packet else Admit packet with proability p (same as RED) See also: Rong Pan, Balaji Prabhakar, Konstantinos Psounis, "CHOKe: a stateless active queue management scheme for approximating fair bandwidth allocation", Proceeding of INFOCOM'2000, March 2000.

The change to allow divisor to be a parameter (in 2.6.38-rc1) commit 817fb15dfd988d8dda916ee04fa506f0c466b9d6 introduced a possible deadlock caught by sparse. The scheduler tree lock was left locked in the case of an incorrect divisor value. Simplest fix is to move test outside of lock which also solves problem of partial update.

2011-01-21net_sched: TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS generalizationEric Dumazet5-6/+20
Now qdisc stab is handled before TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS test in __dev_xmit_skb(), we can generalize TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS to other qdiscs than pfifo_fast : pfifo, bfifo, pfifo_head_drop and sfq SFQ is special because it can have external classifiers, and in these cases, we cannot bypass queue discipline (packet could be dropped by classifier) without admin asking it, or further changes. Its worth doing this, especially for SFQ, avoiding dirtying memory in case no packets are already waiting in queue. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2011-01-20net_sched: accurate bytes/packets stats/ratesEric Dumazet13-30/+24
In commit 44b8288308ac9d (net_sched: pfifo_head_drop problem), we fixed a problem with pfifo_head drops that incorrectly decreased sch->bstats.bytes and sch->bstats.packets Several qdiscs (CHOKe, SFQ, pfifo_head, ...) are able to drop a previously enqueued packet, and bstats cannot be changed, so bstats/rates are not accurate (over estimated) This patch changes the qdisc_bstats updates to be done at dequeue() time instead of enqueue() time. bstats counters no longer account for dropped frames, and rates are more correct, since enqueue() bursts dont have effect on dequeue() rate.

2011-01-20net_sched: RCU conversion of stabEric Dumazet2-10/+18
This patch converts stab qdisc management to RCU, so that we can perform the qdisc_calculate_pkt_len() call before getting qdisc lock. This shortens the lock's held time in __dev_xmit_skb(). This permits more qdiscs to get TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS status, avoiding lot of cache misses and so reducing latencies.

2011-01-20net_sched: move TCQ_F_THROTTLED flagEric Dumazet6-11/+11
In commit 371121057607e (net: QDISC_STATE_RUNNING dont need atomic bit ops) I moved QDISC_STATE_RUNNING flag to __state container, located in the cache line containing qdisc lock and often dirtied fields. I now move TCQ_F_THROTTLED bit too, so that we let first cache line read mostly, and shared by all cpus. This should speedup HTB/CBQ for example. Not using test_bit()/__clear_bit()/__test_and_set_bit allows to use an "unsigned int" for __state container, reducing by 8 bytes Qdisc size. Introduce helpers to hide implementation details.

2011-01-20net_sched: sfq: allow divisor to be a parameterEric Dumazet1-12/+30
SFQ currently uses a 1024 slots hash table, and its internal structure (sfq_sched_data) allocation needs order-1 page on x86_64 Allow tc command to specify a divisor value (hash table size), between 1 and 65536. If no value is provided, assume the 1024 default size. This allows admins to setup smaller (or bigger) SFQ for specific needs. This also brings back sfq_sched_data allocations to order-0 ones, saving 3KB per SFQ qdisc. Jesper uses ~55.000 SFQ in one machine, this patch should free 165 MB of memory.

2011-01-19net_sched: implement a root container qdisc sch_mqprioJohn Fastabend4-0/+434
This implements a mqprio queueing discipline that by default creates a pfifo_fast qdisc per tx queue and provides the needed configuration interface. Using the mqprio qdisc the number of tcs currently in use along with the range of queues alloted to each class can be configured. By default skbs are mapped to traffic classes using the skb priority. This mapping is configurable. Configurable parameters, struct tc_mqprio_qopt { __u8 num_tc; __u8 prio_tc_map[TC_BITMASK + 1]; __u8 hw; __u16 count[TC_MAX_QUEUE]; __u16 offset[TC_MAX_QUEUE]; }; Here the count/offset pairing give the queue alignment and the prio_tc_map gives the mapping from skb->priority to tc. The hw bit determines if the hardware should configure the count and offset values. If the hardware bit is set then the operation will fail if the hardware does not implement the ndo_setup_tc operation. This is to avoid undetermined states where the hardware may or may not control the queue mapping. Also minimal bounds checking is done on the count/offset to verify a queue does not exceed num_tx_queues and that queue ranges do not overlap. Otherwise it is left to user policy or hardware configuration to create useful mappings. It is expected that hardware QOS schemes can be implemented by creating appropriate mappings of queues in ndo_tc_setup(). One expected use case is drivers will use the ndo_setup_tc to map queue ranges onto 802.1Q traffic classes. This provides a generic mechanism to map network traffic onto these traffic classes and removes the need for lower layer drivers to know specifics about traffic types.

Since matching on realms is also useful without having NET_SCHED enabled and the option really only controls whether the tclassid member is included in route and dst entries, rename the config option to IP_ROUTE_CLASSID and move it outside of traffic scheduling context to get rid of the NET_SCHED dependeny.

After recent changes, (percpu stats on vlan/tunnels...), we dont need anymore per struct netdev_queue tx_bytes/tx_packets/tx_dropped counters. Only remaining users are ixgbe, sch_teql, gianfar & macvlan : 1) ixgbe can be converted to use existing tx_ring counters. 2) macvlan incremented txq->tx_dropped, it can use the dev->stats.tx_dropped counter. 3) sch_teql : almost revert ab35cd4b8f42 (Use net_device internal stats) Now we have ndo_get_stats64(), use it, even for "unsigned long" fields (No need to bring back a struct net_device_stats) 4) gianfar adds a stats structure per tx queue to hold tx_bytes/tx_packets This removes a lockdep warning (and possible lockup) in rndis gadget, calling dev_get_stats() from hard IRQ context.

2011-01-05net_sched: pfifo_head_drop problemEric Dumazet1-2/+0
commit 57dbb2d83d100ea (sched: add head drop fifo queue) introduced pfifo_head_drop, and broke the invariant that sch->bstats.bytes and sch->bstats.packets are COUNTER (increasing counters only) This can break estimators because est_timer() handles unsigned deltas only. A decreasing counter can then give a huge unsigned delta. My mid term suggestion would be to change things so that sch->bstats.bytes and sch->bstats.packets are incremented in dequeue() only, not at enqueue() time. We also could add drop_bytes/drop_packets and provide estimations of drop rates. It would be more sensible anyway for very low speeds, and big bursts. Right now, if we drop packets, they still are accounted in byte/packets abolute counters and rate estimators. Before this mid term change, this patch makes pfifo_head_drop behavior similar to other qdiscs in case of drops : Dont decrement sch->bstats.bytes and sch->bstats.packets Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Acked-by: Hagen Paul Pfeifer <hagen@jauu.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

Some of the documentation refers to web pages under the domain `osdl.org'. However, `osdl.org' now redirects to `linuxfoundation.org'. Rather than rely on redirections, this patch updates the addresses appropriately; for the most part, only documentation that is meant to be current has been updated. The patch should be pretty quick to scan and check; each new web-page url was gotten by trying out the original URL in a browser and then simply copying the the redirected URL (formatting as necessary). There is some conflict as to which one of these domain names is preferred: linuxfoundation.org linux-foundation.org So, I wrote: info@linuxfoundation.org and got this reply: Message-ID: <4CE17EE6.9040807@linuxfoundation.org> Date: Mon, 15 Nov 2010 10:41:42 -0800 From: David Ames <david@linuxfoundation.org> ... linuxfoundation.org is preferred. The canonical name for our web site is www.linuxfoundation.org. Our list site is actually lists.linux-foundation.org. Regarding email linuxfoundation.org is preferred there are a few people who choose to use linux-foundation.org for their own reasons. Consequently, I used `linuxfoundation.org' for web pages and `lists.linux-foundation.org' for mailing-list web pages and email addresses; the only personal email address I updated from `@osdl.org' was that of Andrew Morton, who prefers `linux-foundation.org' according `git log'.

2010-10-18sched: Fix softirq time accountingVenkatesh Pallipadi1-1/+1
Peter Zijlstra found a bug in the way softirq time is accounted in VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING on this thread: http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail//linux/kernel/1009.2/01366.html The problem is, softirq processing uses local_bh_disable internally. There is no way, later in the flow, to differentiate between whether softirq is being processed or is it just that bh has been disabled. So, a hardirq when bh is disabled results in time being wrongly accounted as softirq. Looking at the code a bit more, the problem exists in !VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING as well. As account_system_time() in normal tick based accouting also uses softirq_count, which will be set even when not in softirq with bh disabled. Peter also suggested solution of using 2*SOFTIRQ_OFFSET as irq count for local_bh_{disable,enable} and using just SOFTIRQ_OFFSET while softirq processing. The patch below does that and adds API in_serving_softirq() which returns whether we are currently processing softirq or not. Also changes one of the usages of softirq_count in net/sched/cls_cgroup.c to in_serving_softirq. Looks like many usages of in_softirq really want in_serving_softirq. Those changes can be made individually on a case by case basis.

2010-10-11neigh: Protect neigh->ha[] with a seqlockEric Dumazet1-4/+4
Add a seqlock in struct neighbour to protect neigh->ha[], and avoid dirtying neighbour in stress situation (many different flows / dsts) Dirtying takes place because of read_lock(&n->lock) and n->used writes. Switching to a seqlock, and writing n->used only on jiffies changes permits less dirtying. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

ingress being not used very much, and net_device->ingress_queue being quite a big object (128 or 256 bytes), use a dynamic allocation if needed (tc qdisc add dev eth0 ingress ...) dev_ingress_queue(dev) helper should be used only with RTNL taken.
