There is nothing that says that number of TX queues == number of RX queues. E.g. the ARTPEC-6 SoC has 2 TX queues and 1 RX queue. This code is obviously wrong: for (chan = 0; chan < tx_channel_count; chan++) { struct stmmac_rx_queue *rx_q = &priv->rx_queue[chan]; priv->rx_queue has size MTL_MAX_RX_QUEUES, so this will send an uninitialized napi_struct to __napi_schedule(), causing us to crash in net_rx_action(), because napi_struct->poll is zero.

John Fastabend says: ==================== lockless qdisc series This series adds support for building lockless qdiscs. This is the result of noticing the qdisc lock is a common hot-spot in perf analysis of the Linux network stack, especially when testing with high packet per second rates. However, nothing is free and most qdiscs rely on the qdisc lock for their data structures so each qdisc must be converted on a case by case basis. In this series, to kick things off, we make pfifo_fast, mq, and mqprio lockless. Follow up series can address additional qdiscs as needed. For example sch_tbf might be useful. To allow this the lockless design is an opt-in flag. In some future utopia we convert all qdiscs and we get to drop this case analysis, but in order to make progress we live in the real-world. There are also a handful of optimizations I have behind this series and a few code cleanups that I couldn't figure out how to fit neatly into this series with out increasing the patch count. Once this is in additional patches can address this. The most notable is in skb_dequeue we can push the consumer lock out a bit and consume multiple skbs off the skb_array in pfifo fast per iteration. Ideally we could push arrays of packets at drivers as well but we would need the infrastructure for this. The other notable improvement is to do less locking in the overrun cases where bad tx queue list and gso_skb are being hit. Although, nice in theory in practice this is the error case and I haven't found a benchmark where this matters yet. For testing... My first test case uses multiple containers (via cilium) where multiple client containers use 'wrk' to benchmark connections with a server container running lighttpd. Where lighttpd is configured to use multiple threads, one per core. Additionally this test has a proxy agent running so all traffic takes an extra hop through a proxy container. In these cases each TCP packet traverses the egress qdisc layer at least four times and the ingress qdisc layer an additional four times. This makes for a good stress test IMO, perf details below. The other micro-benchmark I run is injecting packets directly into qdisc layer using pktgen. This uses the benchmark script, ./pktgen_bench_xmit_mode_queue_xmit.sh Benchmarks taken in two cases, "base" running latest net-next no changes to qdisc layer and "qdisc" tests run with qdisc lockless updates. Numbers reported in req/sec. All virtual 'veth' devices run with pfifo_fast in the qdisc test case. `wrk -t16 -c $conns -d30 "http://[$SERVER_IP4]:80"` conns 16 32 64 1024 ----------------------------------------------- base: 18831 20201 21393 29151 qdisc: 19309 21063 23899 29265 notice in all cases we see performance improvement when running with qdisc case. Microbenchmarks using pktgen are as follows, `pktgen_bench_xmit_mode_queue_xmit.sh -t 1 -i eth2 -c 20000000 base(mq): 2.1Mpps base(pfifo_fast): 2.1Mpps qdisc(mq): 2.6Mpps qdisc(pfifo_fast): 2.6Mpps notice numbers are the same for mq and pfifo_fast because only testing a single thread here. In both tests we see a nice bump in performance gain. The key with 'mq' is it is already per txq ring so contention is minimal in the above cases. Qdiscs such as tbf or htb which have more contention will likely show larger gains when/if lockless versions are implemented. Thanks to everyone who helped with this work especially Daniel Borkmann, Eric Dumazet and Willem de Bruijn for discussing the design and reviewing versions of the code. Changes from the RFC: dropped a couple patches off the end, fixed a bug with skb_queue_walk_safe not unlinking skb in all cases, fixed a lockdep splat with pfifo_fast_destroy not calling *_bh lock variant, addressed _most_ of Willem's comments, there was a bug in the bulk locking (final patch) of the RFC series. @Willem, I left out lockdep annotation for a follow on series to add lockdep more completely, rather than just in code I touched. Comments and feedback welcome. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

This converts the pfifo_fast qdisc to use the skb_array data structure and set the lockless qdisc bit. pfifo_fast is the first qdisc to support the lockless bit that can be a child of a qdisc requiring locking. So we add logic to clear the lock bit on initialization in these cases when the qdisc graft operation occurs. This also removes the logic used to pick the next band to dequeue from and instead just checks a per priority array for packets from top priority to lowest. This might need to be a bit more clever but seems to work for now. Signed-off-by:

Add qdisc qlen helper routines for lockless qdiscs to use. The qdisc qlen is no longer used in the hotpath but it is reported via stats query on the qdisc so it still needs to be tracked. This adds the per cpu operations needed along with a helper to return the summation of per cpu stats. Signed-off-by:

I can not think of any reason to pull the bad txq skb off the qdisc if the txq we plan to send this on is still frozen. So check for frozen queue first and abort before dequeuing either skb_bad_txq skb or normal qdisc dequeue() skb. Signed-off-by:

John Fastabend authored
In qdisc_graft_qdisc a "new" qdisc is attached and the 'qdisc_destroy' operation is called on the old qdisc. The destroy operation will wait a rcu grace period and call qdisc_rcu_free(). At which point gso_cpu_skb is free'd along with all stats so no need to zero stats and gso_cpu_skb from the graft operation itself. Further after dropping the qdisc locks we can not continue to call qdisc_reset before waiting an rcu grace period so that the qdisc is detached from all cpus. By removing the qdisc_reset() here we get the correct property of waiting an rcu grace period and letting the qdisc_destroy operation clean up the qdisc correctly. Note, a refcnt greater than 1 would cause the destroy operation to be aborted however if this ever happened the reference to the qdisc would be lost and we would have a memory leak. Signed-off-by:

This work is preparing the qdisc layer to support egress lockless qdiscs. If we are running the egress qdisc lockless in the case we overrun the netdev, for whatever reason, the netdev returns a busy error code and the skb is parked on the gso_skb pointer. With many cores all hitting this case at once its possible to have multiple sk_buffs here so we turn gso_skb into a queue. This should be the edge case and if we see this frequently then the netdev/qdisc layer needs to back off. Signed-off-by:

Enable dflt qdisc support for per cpu stats before this patch a dflt qdisc was required to use the global statistics qstats and bstats. This adds a static flags field to qdisc_ops that is propagated into qdisc->flags in qdisc allocate call. This allows the allocation block to completely allocate the qdisc object so we don't have dangling allocations after qdisc init. Signed-off-by:

sch_direct_xmit() uses qdisc_qlen as a return value but all call sites of the routine only check if it is zero or not. Simplify the logic so that we don't need to return an actual queue length value. This introduces a case now where sch_direct_xmit would have returned a qlen of zero but now it returns true. However in this case all call sites of sch_direct_xmit will implement a dequeue() and get a null skb and abort. This trades tracking qlen in the hotpath for an extra dequeue operation. Overall this seems to be good for performance. Signed-off-by:

This patch adds a flag for queueing disciplines to indicate the stack does not need to use the qdisc lock to protect operations. This can be used to build lockless scheduling algorithms and improving performance. The flag is checked in the tx path and the qdisc lock is only taken if it is not set. For now use a conditional if statement. Later we could be more aggressive if it proves worthwhile and use a static key or wrap this in a likely(). Also the lockless case drops the TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS logic. The reason for this is synchronizing a qlen counter across threads proves to cost more than doing the enqueue/dequeue operations when tested with pktgen. Signed-off-by:

Since commit 39e6c820 ("net: solve a NAPI race") napi has been able to be rescheduled within napi_complete_done() even in non-busypoll case, but virtnet_poll() always enabled interrupts before complete, and when napi was rescheduled within napi_complete_done() it did not disable interrupts. This caused more interrupts when event idx is disabled. According to commit cbdadbbf ("virtio_net: fix race in RX VQ processing") we cannot place virtqueue_enable_cb_prepare() after NAPI_STATE_SCHED is cleared, so disable interrupts again if napi_complete_done() returned false. Tested with vhost-user of OVS 2.7 on host, which does not have the event idx feature. * Before patch: $ netperf -t UDP_STREAM -H 192.168.150.253 -l 60 -- -m 1472 MIGRATED UDP STREAM TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET to 192.168.150.253 () port 0 AF_INET Socket Message Elapsed Messages Size Size Time Okay Errors Throughput bytes bytes secs # # 10^6bits/sec 212992 1472 60.00 32763206 0 6430.32 212992 60.00 23384299 4589.56 Interrupts on guest: 9872369 Packets/interrupt: 2.37 * After patch $ netperf -t UDP_STREAM -H 192.168.150.253 -l 60 -- -m 1472 MIGRATED UDP STREAM TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET to 192.168.150.253 () port 0 AF_INET Socket Message Elapsed Messages Size Size Time Okay Errors Throughput bytes bytes secs # # 10^6bits/sec 212992 1472 60.00 32794646 0 6436.49 212992 60.00 32793501 6436.27 Interrupts on guest: 4941299 Packets/interrupt: 6.64 Signed-off-by:

The SMC protocol requires to send a separate consumer cursor update, if it cannot be piggybacked to updates of the producer cursor. When receiving a blocked signal from the sender, this update is sent already in tasklet context. In addition consumer cursor updates are sent after data receival. Sending of cursor updates is controlled by sequence numbers. Assuming receiving stray messages the receiver drops updates with older sequence numbers than an already received cursor update with a higher sequence number. Sending consumer cursor updates in tasklet context may result in wrong order sends and its corresponding drops at the receiver. Since it is sufficient to send consumer cursor updates once the data is received, this patch gets rid of the consumer cursor update in tasklet context to guarantee in-sequence arrival of cursor updates.
