[PATCH v6 net-next 0/5] net: low latency Ethernet device polling

[Eliezer Tamir]

One more round of fixes.
Thank you all for your input.

-Eliezer

change log:
v6
- many small fixes suggested by Eric Dumazet:
  data locality, typos, documentation
  protect napi_hash insert/delete with a spinlock (napi_gen_id is no
  longer atomic_t since it's only accessed with the spinlock held.)
- added IPv6 TCP and UDP support (only minimally tested)

v5
- corrections suggested by Ben Hutchings:
  fixed typos, moved the config option and sysctl value from IPv4 to net
- moved sk_mark_ll() to the protocol handlers
- removed global id mechanism, replaced with a hashed napi_id.
  based on code sample from Eric Dumazet
  Note that ixgbe_free_q_vector() already waits an rcu grace period
  before freeing the q_vector, so nothing additional needs to be done
  when adding a call to napi_hash_del().
- simple poll/select support

v4
- removed separate config option for TCP as suggested Eric Dumazet.
- added linux mib counter for packets received through the low latency path,
  as suggested by Andi Kleen.
- re-allow module unloading, remove module param, use a global generation id
  instead to prevent the use of a stale napi pointer, as suggested
  by Eric Dumazet
- updated Documentation/networking/ip-sysctl.txt text

v3
- coding style changes suggested by Dave Miller

v2
- the sysctl knob is now in microseconds. The default value is now 0 (off).
- for now the code depends at configure time on CONFIG_I86_TSC 
- the napi reference in struct skb is now a union with the dma cookie
  since the former is only used on RX and the latter on TX,
  as suggested by Eric Dumazet.
- we do a better job at honoring non-blocking operations.
- removed busy-polling support for tcp_read_sock()
- remove dynamic disabling of GRO
- coding style fixes
- disallow unloading the device module after the feature has been used

[PATCH v6 net-next 1/5] net: add napi_id and hash

[Eliezer Tamir]

Adds a napi_id and a hashing mechanism to lookup a napi by id.
This will be used by subsequent patches to implement low latency
Ethernet device polling.
Based on a code sample by Eric Dumazet.

[PATCH v6 net-next 2/5] net: implement support for low latency socket polling

Adds a new ndo_ll_poll method and the code that supports and uses it.
This method can be used by low latency applications to busy poll Ethernet
device queues directly from the socket code. The value of sysctl_net_ll_poll
controls how many microseconds to poll. Set to zero to disable.

[PATCH v6 net-next 2/5] net: implement support for low latency socket polling

[Eliezer Tamir]

Adds a new ndo_ll_poll method and the code that supports and uses it.
This method can be used by low latency applications to busy poll Ethernet
device queues directly from the socket code. The value of sysctl_net_ll_poll
controls how many microseconds to poll. Set to zero to disable.

[PATCH v6 net-next 3/5] tcp: add TCP support for low latency receive poll.

[Eliezer Tamir]

Adds busy-poll support for TCP.
Copy the napi_id from an incomming skb to the sk in tcp_v[46]_rcv().
when there is no data in the socket we busy-poll in tcp_recvmsg().
This is a good example of how to add busy-poll support to new protocols.

[PATCH v6 net-next 4/5] ixgbe: Add support for ndo_ll_poll

[Eliezer Tamir]

Add the ixgbe driver code implementing ndo_ll_poll.
It should be easy for other drivers to do something similar
in order to enable support for CONFIG_NET_LL_RX_POLL

[PATCH v6 net-next 4/5] ixgbe: Add support for ndo_ll_poll

[Eliezer Tamir]

Add the ixgbe driver code implementing ndo_ll_poll.
It should be easy for other drivers to do something similar
in order to enable support for CONFIG_NET_LL_RX_POLL

OK this looks good enough for inclusion.

If a v7 ever is submitted, please add a 'static' for

static DEFINE_SPINLOCK(napi_hash_lock);
static unsigned int napi_gen_id;
static DEFINE_HASHTABLE(napi_hash, 8);

If David chose to apply v6, I'll submit a patch for this.

This can overflow.

Multiply is giving 32bits, as tsc_khz is an int, and sysctl_net_ll_poll
is an int.

unsigned long sysctl_net_ll_poll ?

Also, if we want this to work on i386, the correct type to use for
ll_end_time(void) would be cycles_t

Very few devices will ever call napi_hash_add()

[ Real NIC RX queues, not virtual devices ]

We use a hash table with 256 slots, the chance of collision is about 0%

Lets not over engineer the thing before its even used.

We want number of cycles per usec.

Your formula gives number of cycles per 1.024 second.

Unlike with TCP sockets, UDP sockets may receive packets from multiple
sources and hence the receiving context may be steered to be executed
on different cores through RSS or other Flow-Steering HW mechanisms
which could mean different napi contexts for the same socket, is that
a problem here? what's the severity?

Or.

Unlike with TCP sockets, UDP sockets may receive packets from multiple
sources and hence the receiving context may be steered to be executed
on different cores through RSS or other Flow-Steering HW mechanisms
which could mean different napi contexts for the same socket, is that
a problem here? what's the severity?

Hi Eliezer,

(If I'm too late then a future note...)
Why make polling a system-wide configuration?
Wouldn't it make more sense to implement a sock option?
An even better solution might be aggregation/combination of both types of
configurations.

Nothing will break if you poll on the wrong queue.
Your data will come through normal NAPI processing of the right queue.

One of the things we plan on adding in the next version is a more fine 
grained control over which sockets get to busy poll.

This definitely need some documentation, because before llpoll, device
RX path was serviced by the cpu receiving the harwdare interrupt.

So the "wrong" queue could add false sharing, and wrong NUMA
allocations.

Suppose we're loading/unloading one driver repeatedly while another one
remains loaded the whole time.  Then once napi_gen_id wraps around, the
same ID can be assigned to multiple contexts.

So far as I can see, assigning the same ID twice will just make polling
stop working for one of the NAPI contexts; I don't think it causes a
crash.  And it is exceedingly unlikely to happen in production.  But if
you're going to the trouble of handling wrap-around at all, you'd better
handle this.

napi_id should be declared unsigned int here, as elsewhere.  The
division can't actually yield a negative result because HASH_SIZE() has
type size_t and napi_id is promoted to match, but I had to go and look
at hashtable.h to check that.

Maybe ARFS could be extended so the driver can tell whether a UDP socket
it's steering for is connected or not.  Then for disconnected sockets
the driver can use a filter that only matches destination address.
(Though that's probably undesirable if the socket has SO_REUSEPORT set.)

Yes,
To work properly when you have more than one NUMA node, you have to have 
packet steering set up, either by your NIC or by HW accelerated RFS.

I would like to add a short writeup of the design and suggested 
configuration. Where should it go?

Right == the queue the packets arrive on.
Wrong == any other queue.

BTW, if you have an application that receives UDP data to an unbound 
socket, wouldn't it be better in any case to steer all of the incoming 
packets for this UDP socket to a single queue disregarding the source 
address? (Can't your hardware do that?)

The general approach is that userspace needs to make sure that threads, 
connections and IRQs are bound to the right CPUs.

Right == the queue the packets arrive on.
Wrong == any other queue.

BTW, if you have an application that receives UDP data to an unbound 
socket, wouldn't it be better in any case to steer all of the incoming 
packets for this UDP socket to a single queue disregarding the source 
address? (Can't your hardware do that?)

The general approach is that userspace needs to make sure that threads, 
connections and IRQs are bound to the right CPUs.

Good catch,
