A single high rate flow (such as a spoofed source DoS) can exceed a single cpu processing rate and will degrade throughput of other flows hashed onto the same cpu. This patch adds a more fine grained hashtable. If the netdev backlog is above a threshold, IRQ cpus track the ratio of total traffic of each flow (using 4096 buckets, configurable). The ratio is measured by counting the number of packets per flow over the last 256 packets from the source cpu. Any flow that occupies a large fraction of this (set at 50%) will see packet drop while above the threshold. Tested: Setup is a muli-threaded UDP echo server with network rx IRQ on cpu0, kernel receive (RPS) on cpu0 and application threads on cpus 2--7 each handling 20k req/s. Throughput halves when hit with a 400 kpps antagonist storm. With this patch applied, antagonist overload is dropped and the server processes its complete load. The patch is effective when kernel receive processing is the bottleneck. The above RPS scenario is a extreme, but the same is reached with RFS and sufficient kernel processing (iptables, packet socket tap, ..). Signed-off-by: Willem de Bruijn --- Changes v6 - bugfix: lockdep_is_held bug with CONFIG_PROVE_RCU (now built with allyesconfig) - kconfig: update to follow format of RPS v5 - depend on RPS, automatically build if RPS is enabled. v4 - remove unnecessary synchronize_rcu after rcu_assign_pointer to NULL ptr - simplify lookup of current cpu's softnet v3 - fix race between updates to table_len sysctl during bitmap sysctl. - fix NULL pointer dereference on alloc failure. v2 - add fl->num_buckets element to use the actual allocated table length. - disable the kconfig option by default, as it is workload specific. --- include/linux/netdevice.h | 17 ++++++++ net/Kconfig | 12 ++++++ net/core/dev.c | 48 ++++++++++++++++++++- net/core/net-procfs.c | 16 ++++++- net/core/sysctl_net_core.c | 104 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 5 files changed, 194 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/include/linux/netdevice.h b/include/linux/netdevice.h index a94a5a0..7dd535d 100644 --- a/include/linux/netdevice.h +++ b/include/linux/netdevice.h @@ -1778,6 +1778,19 @@ static inline int unregister_gifconf(unsigned int family) return register_gifconf(family, NULL); } +#ifdef CONFIG_NET_FLOW_LIMIT +#define FLOW_LIMIT_HISTORY (1 << 8) /* must be ^2 */ +struct sd_flow_limit { + u64 count; + unsigned int num_buckets; + unsigned int history_head; + u16 history[FLOW_LIMIT_HISTORY]; + u8 buckets[]; +}; + +extern int netdev_flow_limit_table_len; +#endif /* CONFIG_NET_FLOW_LIMIT */ + /* * Incoming packets are placed on per-cpu queues */ @@ -1807,6 +1820,10 @@ struct softnet_data { unsigned int dropped; struct sk_buff_head input_pkt_queue; struct napi_struct backlog; + +#ifdef CONFIG_NET_FLOW_LIMIT + struct sd_flow_limit *flow_limit; +#endif }; static inline void input_queue_head_incr(struct softnet_data *sd) diff --git a/net/Kconfig b/net/Kconfig index 2ddc904..08de901 100644 --- a/net/Kconfig +++ b/net/Kconfig @@ -259,6 +259,18 @@ config BPF_JIT packet sniffing (libpcap/tcpdump).
