2008-11-16dccp: Mechanism to resolve CCID dependenciesGerrit Renker
This adds a hook to resolve features whose value depends on the choice of CCID. It is done at the server since it can only be done after the CCID values have been negotiated; i.e. the client will add its CCID preference list on the Change options sent in the Request, which will be reconciled with the local preference list of the server. The concept is documented on http://www.erg.abdn.ac.uk/users/gerrit/dccp/notes/feature_negotiation/\ implementation_notes.html#ccid_dependencies Signed-off-by: Gerrit Renker <gerrit@erg.abdn.ac.uk> Acked-by: Ian McDonald <ian.mcdonald@jandi.co.nz> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-11-16virtio_net: VIRTIO_NET_F_MSG_RXBUF (imprive rcv buffer allocation)Mark McLoughlin
If segmentation offload is enabled by the host, we currently allocate maximum sized packet buffers and pass them to the host. This uses up 20 ring entries, allowing us to supply only 20 packet buffers to the host with a 256 entry ring. This is a huge overhead when receiving small packets, and is most keenly felt when receiving MTU sized packets from off-host. The VIRTIO_NET_F_MRG_RXBUF feature flag is set by hosts which support using receive buffers which are smaller than the maximum packet size. In order to transfer large packets to the guest, the host merges together multiple receive buffers to form a larger logical buffer. The number of merged buffers is returned to the guest via a field in the virtio_net_hdr. Make use of this support by supplying single page receive buffers to the host. On receive, we extract the virtio_net_hdr, copy 128 bytes of the payload to the skb's linear data buffer and adjust the fragment offset to point to the remaining data. This ensures proper alignment and allows us to not use any paged data for small packets. If the payload occupies multiple pages, we simply append those pages as fragments and free the associated skbs. This scheme allows us to be efficient in our use of ring entries while still supporting large packets. Benchmarking using netperf from an external machine to a guest over a 10Gb/s network shows a 100% improvement from ~1Gb/s to ~2Gb/s. With a local host->guest benchmark with GSO disabled on the host side, throughput was seen to increase from 700Mb/s to 1.7Gb/s. Based on a patch from Herbert Xu.

2008-11-16virtio_net: hook up the set-tso ethtool opMark McLoughlin
Seems like an oversight that we have set-tx-csum and set-sg hooked up, but not set-tso. Also leads to the strange situation that if you e.g. disable tx-csum, then tso doesn't get disabled.

2008-11-16virtio_net: Recycle some more rx buffer pagesMark McLoughlin
Each time we re-fill the recv queue with buffers, we allocate one too many skbs and free it again when adding fails. We should recycle the pages allocated in this case. A previous version of this patch made trim_pages() trim trailing unused pages from skbs with some paged data, but this actually caused a barely measurable slowdown.

2008-11-16net: make sure struct dst_entry refcount is aligned on 64 bytesEric Dumazet
As found in the past (commit f1dd9c379cac7d5a76259e7dffcd5f8edc697d17 [NET]: Fix tbench regression in 2.6.25-rc1), it is really important that struct dst_entry refcount is aligned on a cache line. We cannot use __atribute((aligned)), so manually pad the structure for 32 and 64 bit arches. for 32bit : offsetof(truct dst_entry, __refcnt) is 0x80 for 64bit : offsetof(truct dst_entry, __refcnt) is 0xc0 As it is not possible to guess at compile time cache line size, we use a generic value of 64 bytes, that satisfies many current arches. (Using 128 bytes alignment on 64bit arches would waste 64 bytes) Add a BUILD_BUG_ON to catch future updates to "struct dst_entry" dont break this alignment. "tbench 8" is 4.4 % faster on a dual quad core (HP BL460c G1), Intel E5450 @3.00GHz (2350 MB/s instead of 2250 MB/s) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-11-16net: Convert TCP & DCCP hash tables to use RCU / hlist_nullsEric Dumazet
RCU was added to UDP lookups, using a fast infrastructure : - sockets kmem_cache use SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU and dont pay the price of call_rcu() at freeing time. - hlist_nulls permits to use few memory barriers. This patch uses same infrastructure for TCP/DCCP established and timewait sockets. Thanks to SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU, no slowdown for applications using short lived TCP connections. A followup patch, converting rwlocks to spinlocks will even speedup this case. __inet_lookup_established() is pretty fast now we dont have to dirty a contended cache line (read_lock/read_unlock) Only established and timewait hashtable are converted to RCU (bind table and listen table are still using traditional locking) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

This is a straightforward patch, using hlist_nulls infrastructure. RCUification already done on UDP two weeks ago.

2008-11-16rcu: Introduce hlist_nulls variant of hlistEric Dumazet
hlist uses NULL value to finish a chain. hlist_nulls variant use the low order bit set to 1 to signal an end-of-list marker. This allows to store many different end markers, so that some RCU lockless algos (used in TCP/UDP stack for example) can save some memory barriers in fast paths. Two new files are added : include/linux/list_nulls.h - mimics hlist part of include/linux/list.h, derived to hlist_nulls variant include/linux/rculist_nulls.h - mimics hlist part of include/linux/rculist.h, derived to hlist_nulls variant Only four helpers are declared for the moment : hlist_nulls_del_init_rcu(), hlist_nulls_del_rcu(), hlist_nulls_add_head_rcu() and hlist_nulls_for_each_entry_rcu() prefetches() were removed, since an end of list is not anymore NULL value. prefetches() could trigger useless (and possibly dangerous) memory transactions. Example of use (extracted from __udp4_lib_lookup()) struct sock *sk, *result; struct hlist_nulls_node *node; unsigned short hnum = ntohs(dport); unsigned int hash = udp_hashfn(net, hnum); struct udp_hslot *hslot = &udptable->hash[hash]; int score, badness; rcu_read_lock(); begin: result = NULL; badness = -1; sk_nulls_for_each_rcu(sk, node, &hslot->head) { score = compute_score(sk, net, saddr, hnum, sport, daddr, dport, dif); if (score > badness) { result = sk; badness = score; } } /* * if the nulls value we got at the end of this lookup is * not the expected one, we must restart lookup. * We probably met an item that was moved to another chain. */ if (get_nulls_value(node) != hash) goto begin; if (result) { if (unlikely(!atomic_inc_not_zero(&result->sk_refcnt))) result = NULL; else if (unlikely(compute_score(result, net, saddr, hnum, sport, daddr, dport, dif) < badness)) { sock_put(result); goto begin; } } rcu_read_unlock(); return result; Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-11-12dccp: Resolve dependencies of features on choice of CCIDGerrit Renker
This provides a missing link in the code chain, as several features implicitly depend and/or rely on the choice of CCID. Most notably, this is the Send Ack Vector feature, but also Ack Ratio and Send Loss Event Rate (also taken care of). For Send Ack Vector, the situation is as follows: * since CCID2 mandates the use of Ack Vectors, there is no point in allowing endpoints which use CCID2 to disable Ack Vector features such a connection; * a peer with a TX CCID of CCID2 will always expect Ack Vectors, and a peer with a RX CCID of CCID2 must always send Ack Vectors (RFC 4341, sec. 4); * for all other CCIDs, the use of (Send) Ack Vector is optional and thus negotiable. However, this implies that the code negotiating the use of Ack Vectors also supports it (i.e. is able to supply and to either parse or ignore received Ack Vectors). Since this is not the case (CCID-3 has no Ack Vector support), the use of Ack Vectors is here disabled, with a comment in the source code. An analogous consideration arises for the Send Loss Event Rate feature, since the CCID-3 implementation does not support the loss interval options of RFC 4342. To make such use explicit, corresponding feature-negotiation options are inserted which signal the use of the loss event rate option, as it is used by the CCID3 code. Lastly, the values of the Ack Ratio feature are matched to the choice of CCID. The patch implements this as a function which is called after the user has made all other registrations for changing default values of features. The table is variable-length, the reserved (and hence for feature-negotiation invalid, confirmed by considering section 19.4 of RFC 4340) feature number `0' is used to mark the end of the table.

2008-11-12dccp: Query supported CCIDsGerrit Renker
This provides a data structure to record which CCIDs are locally supported and three accessor functions: - a test function for internal use which is used to validate CCID requests made by the user; - a copy function so that the list can be used for feature-negotiation; - documented getsockopt() support so that the user can query capabilities. The data structure is a table which is filled in at compile-time with the list of available CCIDs (which in turn depends on the Kconfig choices). Using the copy function for cloning the list of supported CCIDs is useful for feature negotiation, since the negotiation is now with the full list of available CCIDs (e.g. {2, 3}) instead of the default value {2}.

2008-11-12dccp: Registration routines for changing feature valuesGerrit Renker
Two registration routines, for SP and NN features, are provided by this patch, replacing a previous routine which was used for both feature types. These are internal-only routines and therefore start with `__feat_register'. It further exports the known limits of Sequence Window and Ack Ratio as symbolic constants.

2008-11-12dccp: Limit feature negotiation to connection setup phaseGerrit Renker
This patch limits feature (capability) negotation to the connection setup phase: 1. Although it is theoretically possible to perform feature negotiation at any time (and RFC 4340 supports this), in practice this is prohibitively complex, as it requires to put traffic on hold for each new negotiation. 2. As a byproduct of restricting feature negotiation to connection setup, the feature-negotiation retransmit timer is no longer required. This part is now mapped onto the protocol-level retransmission. Details indicating why timers are no longer needed can be found on http://www.erg.abdn.ac.uk/users/gerrit/dccp/notes/feature_negotiation/\ implementation_notes.html This patch disables anytime negotiation, subsequent patches work out full feature negotiation support for connection setup.
