* hv_netvsc: Eliminate memory allocation in the packet send pathKY Srinivasan2015-03-31
| | | | | | | | | | | The network protocol used to communicate with the host is the remote ndis (rndis) protocol. We need to decorate each outgoing packet with a rndis header and additional rndis state (rndis per-packet state). To manage this state, we currently allocate memory in the transmit path. Eliminate this allocation by requesting additional head room in the skb. Signed-off-by: K. Y. Srinivasan <kys@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* Drivers: net-next: hyperv: Increase the size of the sendbuf regionKY Srinivasan2014-08-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Intel did some benchmarking on our network throughput when Linux on Hyper-V is as used as a gateway. This fix gave us almost a 1 Gbps additional throughput on about 5Gbps base throughput we hadi, prior to increasing the sendbuf size. The sendbuf mechanism is a copy based transport that we have which is clearly more optimal than the copy-free page flipping mechanism (for small packets). In the forwarding scenario, we deal only with MTU sized packets, and increasing the size of the senbuf area gave us the additional performance. For what it is worth, Windows guests on Hyper-V, I am told use similar sendbuf size as well. The exact value of sendbuf I think is less important than the fact that it needs to be larger than what Linux can allocate as physically contiguous memory. Thus the change over to allocating via vmalloc(). We currently allocate 16MB receive buffer and we use vmalloc there for allocation. Also the low level channel code has already been modified to deal with physically dis-contiguous memory in the ringbuffer setup. Based on experimentation Intel did, they say there was some improvement in throughput as the sendbuf size was increased up to 16MB and there was no effect on throughput beyond 16MB. Thus I have chosen 16MB here. Increasing the sendbuf value makes a material difference in small packet handling In this version of the patch, based on David's feedback, I have added additional details in the commit log.

* hyperv: Enable sendbuf mechanism on the send pathKY Srinivasan2014-04-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We send packets using a copy-free mechanism (this is the Guest to Host transport via VMBUS). While this is obviously optimal for large packets, it may not be optimal for small packets. Hyper-V host supports a second mechanism for sending packets that is "copy based". We implement that mechanism in this patch. In this version of the patch I have addressed a comment from David Miller. With this patch (and all of the other offload and VRSS patches), we are now able to almost saturate a 10G interface between Linux VMs on Hyper-V on different hosts - close to 9 Gbps as measured via iperf.

Also, there is a race condition in the stop/wake queue calls, which can stop xmit queue forever. The new stop/wake queue mechanism is based on the actual bytes used by outbound packets in the ring buffer. The check for number of outstanding sends after stop queue prevents the race condition that can cause wake queue happening earlier than stop queue.
