2018-11-19net: sched: gred: support reporting stats from offloadsJakub Kicinski1-0/+47
Allow drivers which offload GRED to report back statistics. Since A lot of GRED stats is fairly ad hoc in nature pass to drivers the standard struct gnet_stats_basic/gnet_stats_queue pairs, and untangle the values in the core.

2018-11-16net: sched: gred: allow manipulating per-DP RED flagsJakub Kicinski1-1/+143
Allow users to set and dump RED flags (ECN enabled and harddrop) on per-virtual queue basis. Validation of attributes is split from changes to make sure we won't have to undo previous operations when we find out configuration is invalid. The objective is to allow changing per-Qdisc parameters without overwriting the per-vq configured flags. Old user space will not pass the TCA_GRED_VQ_FLAGS attribute and per-Qdisc flags will always get propagated to the virtual queues. New user space which wants to make use of per-vq flags should set per-Qdisc flags to 0 and then configure per-vq flags as it sees fit. Once per-vq flags are set per-Qdisc flags can't be changed to non-zero. Vice versa - if the per-Qdisc flags are non-zero the TCA_GRED_VQ_FLAGS attribute has to either be omitted or set to the same value as per-Qdisc flags. Update per-Qdisc parameters: per-Qdisc | per-VQ | result 0 | 0 | all vq flags updated 0 | non-0 | error (vq flags in use) non-0 | 0 | -- impossible -- non-0 | non-0 | all vq flags updated Update per-VQ state (flags parameter not specified): no change to flags Update per-VQ state (flags parameter set): per-Qdisc | per-VQ | result 0 | any | per-vq flags updated non-0 | 0 | -- impossible -- non-0 | non-0 | error (per-Qdisc flags in use) Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <jakub.kicinski@netronome.com> Reviewed-by: John Hurley <john.hurley@netronome.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2016-06-25net_sched: drop packets after root qdisc lock is releasedEric Dumazet1-3/+4
Qdisc performance suffers when packets are dropped at enqueue() time because drops (kfree_skb()) are done while qdisc lock is held, delaying a dequeue() draining the queue. Nominal throughput can be reduced by 50 % when this happens, at a time we would like the dequeue() to proceed as fast as possible. Even FQ is vulnerable to this problem, while one of FQ goals was to provide some flow isolation. This patch adds a 'struct sk_buff **to_free' parameter to all qdisc->enqueue(), and in qdisc_drop() helper. I measured a performance increase of up to 12 %, but this patch is a prereq so that future batches in enqueue() can fly.

2015-05-12net_sched: gred: add TCA_GRED_LIMIT attributeDavid Ward1-4/+24
In a GRED qdisc, if the default "virtual queue" (VQ) does not have drop parameters configured, then packets for the default VQ are not subjected to RED and are only dropped if the queue is larger than the net_device's tx_queue_len. This behavior is useful for WRED mode, since these packets will still influence the calculated average queue length and (therefore) the drop probability for all of the other VQs. However, for some drivers tx_queue_len is zero. In other cases the user may wish to make the limit the same for all VQs (including the default VQ with no drop parameters). This change adds a TCA_GRED_LIMIT attribute to set the GRED queue limit, in bytes, during qdisc setup. (This limit is in bytes to be consistent with the drop parameters.) The default limit is the same as for a bfifo queue (tx_queue_len * psched_mtu). If the drop parameters of any VQ are configured with a smaller limit than the GRED queue limit, that VQ will still observe the smaller limit instead.

2015-05-11net_sched: gred: use correct backlog value in WRED modeDavid Ward1-2/+2
In WRED mode, the backlog for a single virtual queue (VQ) should not be used to determine queue behavior; instead the backlog is summed across all VQs. This sum is currently used when calculating the average queue lengths. It also needs to be used when determining if the queue's hard limit has been reached, or when reporting each VQ's backlog via netlink. q->backlog will only be used if the queue switches out of WRED mode.

2012-09-13net_sched: gred: actually perform idling in WRED modeDavid Ward1-11/+15
gred_dequeue() and gred_drop() do not seem to get called when the queue is empty, meaning that we never start idling while in WRED mode. And since qidlestart is not stored by gred_store_wred_set(), we would never stop idling while in WRED mode if we ever started. This messes up the average queue size calculation that influences packet marking/dropping behavior. Now, we start WRED mode idling as we are removing the last packet from the queue. Also we now actually stop WRED mode idling when we are enqueuing a packet.

2012-04-16net_sched: gred: Fix oops in gred_dump() in WRED modeDavid Ward1-5/+2
A parameter set exists for WRED mode, called wred_set, to hold the same values for qavg and qidlestart across all VQs. The WRED mode values had been previously held in the VQ for the default DP. After these values were moved to wred_set, the VQ for the default DP was no longer created automatically (so that it could be omitted on purpose, to have packets in the default DP enqueued directly to the device without using RED). However, gred_dump() was overlooked during that change; in WRED mode it still reads qavg/qidlestart from the VQ for the default DP, which might not even exist. As a result, this command sequence will cause an oops: tc qdisc add dev $DEV handle $HANDLE parent $PARENT gred setup \ DPs 3 default 2 grio tc qdisc change dev $DEV handle $HANDLE gred DP 0 prio 8 $RED_OPTIONS tc qdisc change dev $DEV handle $HANDLE gred DP 1 prio 8 $RED_OPTIONS This fixes gred_dump() in WRED mode to use the values held in wred_set.

2010-03-30include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo1-0/+1
implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

Unfortunately a gradual conversion is not possible without breaking compilation in the middle or adding lots of casts, so this patch converts them all in one step. The patch has been mostly generated automatically with some minor edits to at least allow seperate conversion of classifiers and actions.

2008-01-28[NET]: Move Qdisc_class_ops and Qdisc_ops in appropriate sections.Eric Dumazet1-1/+1
Qdisc_class_ops are const, and Qdisc_ops are mostly read. Using "const" and "__read_mostly" qualifiers helps to reduce false sharing. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
