To: ath10k, johannes; +Cc: linux-wireless
Add a field for ath10k to adjust the sk_pacing_shift, mac80211 set
the default value to 8, and ath10k will change it to 6. Then mac80211
will use the changed value 6 as sk_pacing_shift since 6 is the best
value for tx throughput by test result.

Add the skb_pacing_shirt adjustment, but this change make it
configurable for other driver. If no other driver set it, then
mac8011 will use the default value.

To: kbuild test robot; +Cc: kbuild-all, ath10k, johannes, linux-wireless
Thanks,
I will add description of tx_sk_pacing_shift as below and sent next
patch.
*
* @tx_sk_pacing_shift: The TCP stack allow more than a single ms of data
* to be queued in the stack. The value is a bit-shift of 1 second,
e.g. 8
* is ~4ms of queued data. It only affects local TCP sockets.

To: kbuild test robot; +Cc: johannes, linux-wireless, kbuild-all, ath10k
Thanks,
I will add description of tx_sk_pacing_shift as below and sent next
patch.
*
* @tx_sk_pacing_shift: The TCP stack allow more than a single ms of data
* to be queued in the stack. The value is a bit-shift of 1 second,
e.g. 8
* is ~4ms of queued data. It only affects local TCP sockets.

* [PATCH 2/2] ath10k: Set sk_pacing_shift to 6 for 11AC WiFi chips

Upstream kernel has an interface to help adjust sk_pacing_shift to help
improve TCP UL throughput.
The sk_pacing_shift is 8 in mac80211, this is based on test with 11N
WiFi chips with ath9k. For QCA6174/QCA9377 PCI 11AC chips, the 11AC
VHT80 TCP UL throughput testing result shows 6 is the optimal.
Overwrite the sk_pacing_shift to 6 in ath10k driver.
Tested with QCA6174 PCI with firmware
WLAN.RM.4.4.1-00109-QCARMSWPZ-1, but this will also affect QCA9377 PCI.
It's not a regression with new firmware releases.
There have 2 test result of different settings:
ARM CPU based device with QCA6174A PCI with different
sk_pacing_shift:
sk_pacing_shift throughput(Mbps) CPU utilization
6 500(-P5) ~75% idle, Focus on CPU1: ~14%idle
7 454(-P5) ~80% idle, Focus on CPU1: ~4%idle

When I tested this, a pacing shift of 8 was quite close to optimal as
well for ath10k. Why are you getting different results?

Your tests do not include latency values; please try running a test that
also measures latency. The tcp_nup test in Flent (https://flent.org)
will do that, for instance. Also, is this a single TCP flow?

Different firmware releases have different tx buffering
characteristics. In some 10.2 firmware running on QCA9888 you can have
up to 5ms of delayed aggregation. Ideally sk_pacing_shift should be
adjusted per firmware release. Maybe this should become part of the
ath10k firmware wrapping "fw features" stuff?

All the more reason to *not* change the pacing shift from 8 to 6 for
entire ath10k because you have no idea what impact that is going to
have on other chips/firmwares, e.g. QCA4019, QCA9888X, QCA9984.

the default value is still 8 in the patch:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10545361/
In my test, pacing shift 6 is better than 8.
The test is for ath10k/11AC WiFi chips.
Test result is show in the commit logs before.

This is useless without latency numbers. The whole point of
sk_pacing_shift is to control the tradeoff between latency and
throughput. You're only showing the throughput, so it's impossible to
judge if setting the pacing shift to 6 is right (and from your results I
suspect the sweet spot is actually 7).

Add a field for ath10k to adjust the sk_pacing_shift, mac80211 set
the default value to 8, and ath10k will change it to 6. Then mac80211
will use the changed value 6 as sk_pacing_shift since 6 is the best
value for tx throughput by test result.

Upstream kernel has an interface to help adjust sk_pacing_shift to help
improve TCP UL throughput.
The sk_pacing_shift is 8 in mac80211, this is based on test with 11N
WiFi chips with ath9k. For QCA6174/QCA9377 PCI 11AC chips, the 11AC
VHT80 TCP UL throughput testing result shows 6 is the optimal.
Overwrite the sk_pacing_shift to 6 in ath10k driver.
Tested with QCA6174 PCI with firmware
WLAN.RM.4.4.1-00109-QCARMSWPZ-1, but this will also affect QCA9377 PCI.
It's not a regression with new firmware releases.
There have 2 test result of different settings:
ARM CPU based device with QCA6174A PCI with different
sk_pacing_shift:
sk_pacing_shift throughput(Mbps) CPU utilization
6 500(-P5) ~75% idle, Focus on CPU1: ~14%idle
7 454(-P5) ~80% idle, Focus on CPU1: ~4%idle
8 288 ~90% idle, Focus on CPU1: ~35%idle
9 ~200 ~92% idle, Focus on CPU1: ~50%idle
5G TCP UL VTH80 on X86 platform with QCA6174A PCI with sk_packing_shift
set to 6:
tcp_limit_output_bytes throughput(Mbps)

Upstream kernel has an interface to help adjust sk_pacing_shift to help
improve TCP UL throughput.
The sk_pacing_shift is 8 in mac80211, this is based on test with 11N
WiFi chips with ath9k. For QCA6174/QCA9377 PCI 11AC chips, the 11AC
VHT80 TCP UL throughput testing result shows 6 is the optimal.
Overwrite the sk_pacing_shift to 6 in ath10k driver.
Tested with QCA6174 PCI with firmware
WLAN.RM.4.4.1-00109-QCARMSWPZ-1, but this will also affect QCA9377 PCI.
It's not a regression with new firmware releases.
There have 2 test result of different settings:
ARM CPU based device with QCA6174A PCI with different
sk_pacing_shift:
sk_pacing_shift throughput(Mbps) CPU utilization
6 500(-P5) ~75% idle, Focus on CPU1: ~14%idle
7 454(-P5) ~80% idle, Focus on CPU1: ~4%idle
8 288 ~90% idle, Focus on CPU1: ~35%idle
9 ~200 ~92% idle, Focus on CPU1: ~50%idle
5G TCP UL VTH80 on X86 platform with QCA6174A PCI with sk_packing_shift
set to 6:
tcp_limit_output_bytes throughput(Mbps)
default(262144)+1 Stream 336
default(262144)+2 Streams 558
default(262144)+3 Streams 584
default(262144)+4 Streams 602
