flow_dissector: switch kernel context to struct bpf_flow_dissector

2019-04-23T16:36:33Z

struct bpf_flow_dissector has a small subset of sk_buff fields that flow dissector BPF program is allowed to access and an optional pointer to real skb. Real skb is used only in bpf_skb_load_bytes helper to read non-linear data. The real motivation for this is to be able to call flow dissector from eth_get_headlen context where we don't have an skb and need to dissect raw bytes.

Revert: "net: sched: put back q.qlen into a single location"

2019-04-10T19:20:46Z

This revert commit 46b1c18f9deb ("net: sched: put back q.qlen into a single location"). After the previous patch, when a NOLOCK qdisc is enslaved to a locking qdisc it switches to global stats accounting. As a consequence, when a classful qdisc accesses directly a child qdisc's qlen, such qdisc is not doing per CPU accounting and qlen value is consistent. In the control path nobody uses directly qlen since commit e5f0e8f8e45 ("net: sched: introduce and use qdisc tree flush/purge helpers"), so we can remove the contented atomic ops from the datapath. v1 -> v2: - complete the qdisc_qstats_atomic_qlen_dec() -> qdisc_qstats_cpu_qlen_dec() replacement, fix build issue - more descriptive commit message Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni Signed-off-by: David S.

net: sched: when clearing NOLOCK, clear TCQ_F_CPUSTATS, too

2019-04-10T19:20:46Z

Since stats updating is always consistent with TCQ_F_CPUSTATS flag, we can disable it at qdisc creation time flipping such bit. In my experiments, if the NOLOCK flag is cleared, per CPU stats accounting does not give any measurable performance gain, but it waste some memory. Let's clear TCQ_F_CPUSTATS together with NOLOCK, when enslaving a NOLOCK qdisc to 'lock' one. Use stats update helper inside pfifo_fast, to cope correctly with TCQ_F_CPUSTATS flag change. As a side effect, q.qlen value for any child qdiscs is always consistent for all lock classfull qdiscs. Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: sched: always do stats accounting according to TCQ_F_CPUSTATS

2019-04-10T19:20:46Z

The core sched implementation checks independently for NOLOCK flag to acquire/release the root spin lock and for qdisc_is_percpu_stats() to account per CPU values in many places. This change update the last few places checking the TCQ_F_NOLOCK to do per CPU stats accounting according to qdisc_is_percpu_stats() value. The above allows to clean dev_requeue_skb() implementation a bit and makes stats update always consistent with a single flag. v1 -> v2: - do not move qdisc_is_empty definition, fix build issue Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni Signed-off-by: David S.

net: sched: prefer qdisc_is_empty() over direct qlen access

2019-04-10T19:20:46Z

When checking for root qdisc queue length, do not access directly q.qlen. In the following patches we will move back qlen accounting to per CPU values for NOLOCK qdiscs. Instead, prefer the qdisc_is_empty() helper usage. Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: sched: introduce and use qdisc tree flush/purge helpers

2019-04-01T21:50:13Z

The same code to flush qdisc tree and purge the qdisc queue is duplicated in many places and in most cases it does not respect NOLOCK qdisc: the global backlog len is used and the per CPU values are ignored. This change addresses the above, factoring-out the relevant code and using the helpers introduced by the previous patch to fetch the correct backlog len.

net: sched: introduce and use qstats read helpers

2019-04-01T21:50:13Z

Classful qdiscs can't access directly the child qdiscs backlog length: if such qdisc is NOLOCK, per CPU values should be accounted instead. Most qdiscs no not respect the above. As a result, qstats fetching for most classful qdisc is currently incorrect: if the child qdisc is NOLOCK, it always reports 0 len backlog. This change introduces a pair of helpers to safely fetch both backlog and qlen and use them in stats class dumping functions, fixing the above issue and cleaning a bit the code. DRR needs also to access the child qdisc queue length, so it needs custom handling. Fixes: c5ad119fb6c0 ("net: sched: pfifo_fast use skb_array") Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni Signed-off-by: David S.

net: sched: add empty status flag for NOLOCK qdisc

2019-03-24T01:52:36Z

The queue is marked not empty after acquiring the seqlock, and it's up to the NOLOCK qdisc clearing such flag on dequeue. Since the empty status lays on the same cache-line of the seqlock, it's always hot on cache during the updates. This makes the empty flag update a little bit loosy. Given the lack of synchronization between enqueue and dequeue, this is unavoidable. v2 -> v3: - qdisc_is_empty() has a const argument (Eric) v1 -> v2: - use really an 'empty' flag instead of 'not_empty', as suggested by Eric Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni Reviewed-by: Eric Dumazet Reviewed-by: Ivan Vecera Signed-off-by: David S.
