[PATCH net] ixgbe: allow to increase MTU to some extent with XDP enalbed

[PATCH net] ixgbe: allow to increase MTU to some extent with XDP enalbed

[Jason Xing]

From: Jason Xing <kernelxing@tencent.com>

I encountered one case where I cannot increase the MTU size with XDP
enabled if the server is equipped with IXGBE card, which happened on
thousands of servers. I noticed it was prohibited from 2017[1] and
added size checks[2] if allowed soon after the previous patch.

Interesting part goes like this:
1) Changing MTU directly from 1500 (default value) to 2000 doesn't
work because the driver finds out that 'new_frame_size >
ixgbe_rx_bufsz(ring)' in ixgbe_change_mtu() function.
2) However, if we change MTU to 1501 then change from 1501 to 2000, it
does work, because the driver sets __IXGBE_RX_3K_BUFFER when MTU size
is converted to 1501, which later size check policy allows.

The default MTU value for most servers is 1500 which cannot be adjusted
directly to the value larger than IXGBE_MAX_2K_FRAME_BUILD_SKB (1534 or
1536) if it loads XDP.

After I do a quick study on the manner of i40E driver allowing two kinds
of buffer size (one is 2048 while another is 3072) to support XDP mode in
i40e_max_xdp_frame_size(), I believe the default MTU size is possibly not
satisfied in XDP mode when IXGBE driver is in use, we sometimes need to
insert a new header, say, vxlan header. So setting the 3K-buffer flag
could solve the issue.

Dear Jason,


Thank you for your patch.

That’s included since Linux 4.19-rc1.

What card did you test with exactly?

I’d say to not break the line in references.

Sure it is. That's my fault.

It is the IXGBE driver that has such an issue.  The I40E driver I
mentioned here is only for contrast. It's not that proper from my
point of view if the IXGBE driver cannot directly adjust to 2000. Thus
I would like more reviews and suggestions.

Thanks,
Jason

I'm sorry. I just noticed that I sent it to the wrong email address of
john.fastabend previously. So I corrected it here.

Thanks,

This will result with unnecessary overhead for 1500 MTU because you will
be working on order-1 pages. Instead I would focus on fixing
ixgbe_change_mtu() and stop relying on ixgbe_rx_bufsz() in there. You can
check what we do on ice/i40e sides.

I'm not looking actively into ixgbe internals but I don't think that there
is anything that stops us from using 3k buffers with XDP.

I think it uses the same logics as the rest of drivers: splits a 4k page
into two 2k buffers when MTU is <= 1536, otherwise uses order-1 pages
and uses 3k buffers.

OTOH ixgbe is not fully correct in terms how it calculates Rx headroom,
but the main problem is how it calculates the maximum MTU available when
XDP is on. Our usual MTU supported when XDP is on is 3046 bytes.
For MTU <= 1536, 2k buffers are used even for XDP, so the fix is not
correct. Maciej is right that i40e and ice do that way better and don't
have such issue.

Well, now I see the commit 23b44513c3e6f in 2019. Thanks, Maciej.

Thank you for the detailed explanation. And yes, I checked this part
in the ice/i40e driver which introduces ice/i40e_max_xdp_frame_size()
to test if we can change MTU size when the driver is loading the XDP
program.
I will rewrite the patch as the i40e/ice does in the next submission.

Thanks,
Jason
