One down side of using TCP rx zerocopy is one extra TLB miss per page after the mapping operation. While if the application is using hugepages, the non zerocopy recvmsg() will not have to pay these TLB costs. This patch allows server side to use huge pages for the non zero copy case, to allow fair comparisons when both solutions use optimal conditions.

There are significant gains using huge pages when available, as shown in [1]. This patch adds mmap_large_buffer() and uses it in client side (tx path of this reference tool) Following patch will use the feature for server side.

When TCP_ZEROCOPY_RECEIVE operation has been added, I made the mistake of automatically un-mapping prior content before mapping new pages. This has the unfortunate effect of adding potentially long MMU operations (like TLB flushes) while socket lock is held. Using madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) right after pages has been used has two benefits : 1) This releases pages sooner, allowing pages to be recycled if they were part of a page pool in a NIC driver. 2) No more long unmap operations while preventing immediate processing of incoming packets. The cost of the added system call is small enough. Arjun will submit a kernel patch allowing to opt out from the unmap attempt in tcp_zerocopy_receive() Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: Arjun Roy <arjunroy@google.com> Cc: Soheil Hassas Yeganeh <soheil@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Currently, tcp sendmsg(MSG_ZEROCOPY) is building skbs with order-0 fragments. Compared to standard sendmsg(), these skbs usually contain up to 16 fragments on arches with 4KB page sizes, instead of two. This adds considerable costs on various ndo_start_xmit() handlers, especially when IOMMU is in the picture. As high performance applications are often using huge pages, we can try to combine adjacent pages belonging to same compound page. Tested on AMD Rome platform, with IOMMU, nominal single TCP flow speed is roughly doubled (~55Gbit -> ~100Gbit), when user application is using hugepages. For reference, nominal single TCP flow speed on this platform without MSG_ZEROCOPY is ~65Gbit.

Reason: A lot of the ptp drivers - which implement hardware time stamping - need specific fields such as the sequence id from the ptp v2 header. Currently all drivers implement that themselves.

Currently the driver reads RX and TX subCRQ handle array directly from a DMA-mapped buffer address when it needs to make a H_SEND_SUBCRQ hcall. This patch stores that information in the ibmvnic_sub_crq_queue structure instead of reading from the buffer received at login. The overall goal of this patch is to parse relevant information from the login response buffer and store it in the driver's private data structures so that we don't need to read directly from the buffer and can then free up that memory.

Heiner Kallweit authored
After making use of the gro_flush_timeout attribute I once got a tx timeout due to an interrupt that wasn't handled. Seems using irq_enabled can be racy, and it's not needed any longer anyway, so remove it. I've never seen a report about such a race before, therefore treat the change as an improvement. There's just one small drawback: If a legacy PCI interrupt is used, and if this interrupt is shared with a device with high interrupt rate, then we may handle interrupts even if NAPI disabled them, and we may see a certain performance decrease under high network load.

Johannes Berg says: ==================== netlink: allow NLA_BINARY length range validation In quite a few places (perhaps particularly in wireless) we need to validation an NLA_BINARY attribute with both a minimum and a maximum length. Currently, we can do either of the two, but not both, given that we have NLA_MIN_LEN (minimum length) and NLA_BINARY (maximum). Extend the range mechanisms that we use for integer validation to apply to NLA_BINARY as well. After converting everything to use NLA_POLICY_MIN_LEN() we can thus get rid of the NLA_MIN_LEN type since that's now a special case of NLA_BINARY with a minimum length validation. Similarly, NLA_EXACT_LEN can be specified using NLA_POLICY_EXACT_LEN() and also maps to the new NLA_BINARY validation (min == max == desired length). Finally, NLA_POLICY_EXACT_LEN_WARN() also gets to be a somewhat special case of this. I haven't included the patch here now that converts nl82011 to use this because it doesn't apply without another cleanup patch, but we can remove a number of hand-coded min/max length checks and get better error messages from the general validation code while doing that. As I had originally built the netlink policy export to userspace in a way that has min/max length for NLA_BINARY (for the types that we used to call NLA_MIN_LEN, NLA_BINARY and NLA_EXACT_LEN) anyway, it doesn't really change anything there except that now there's a chance that userspace sees min length < max length, which previously wasn't possible. v2: * fix the min<max comment to correctly say min<=max ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Add range validation for NLA_BINARY, allowing validation of any combination of combination minimum or maximum lengths, using the existing NLA_POLICY_RANGE()/NLA_POLICY_FULL_RANGE() macros, just like for integers where the value is checked. Also make NLA_POLICY_EXACT_LEN(), NLA_POLICY_EXACT_LEN_WARN() and NLA_POLICY_MIN_LEN() special cases of this, removing the old types NLA_EXACT_LEN and NLA_MIN_LEN. This allows us to save some code where both minimum and maximum lengths are requires, currently the policy only allows maximum (NLA_BINARY), minimum (NLA_MIN_LEN) or exact (NLA_EXACT_LEN), so a range of lengths cannot be accepted and must be checked by the code that consumes the attributes later. Also, this allows advertising the correct ranges in the policy export to userspace. Here, NLA_MIN_LEN and NLA_EXACT_LEN already were special cases of NLA_BINARY with min and min/max length respectively. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
