* net_sched: add classful multiqueue dummy schedulerDavid S. Miller2009-09-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds a classful dummy scheduler which can be used as root qdisc for multiqueue devices and exposes each device queue as a child class. This allows to address queues individually and graft them similar to regular classes. Additionally it presents an accumulated view of the statistics of all real root qdiscs in the dummy root. Two new callbacks are added to the qdisc_ops and qdisc_class_ops: - cl_ops->select_queue selects the tx queue number for new child classes. - qdisc_ops->attach() overrides root qdisc device grafting to attach non-shared qdiscs to the queues.

* net_sched: reintroduce dev->qdisc for use by sch_apiPatrick McHardy2009-09-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the multiqueue integration with the qdisc API suffers from a few problems: - with multiple queues, all root qdiscs use the same handle. This means they can't be exposed to userspace in a backwards compatible fashion. - all API operations always refer to queue number 0. Newly created qdiscs are automatically shared between all queues, its not possible to address individual queues or restore multiqueue behaviour once a shared qdisc has been attached. - Dumps only contain the root qdisc of queue 0, in case of non-shared qdiscs this means the statistics are incomplete. This patch reintroduces dev->qdisc, which points to the (single) root qdisc from userspace's point of view. Currently it either points to the first (non-shared) default qdisc, or a qdisc shared between all queues. The following patches will introduce a classful dummy qdisc, which will be used as root qdisc and contain the per-queue qdiscs as children.

* pkt_sched: Fix resource limiting in pfifo_fastKrishna Kumar2009-08-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | pfifo_fast_enqueue has this check: if (skb_queue_len(list) < qdisc_dev(qdisc)->tx_queue_len) { which allows each band to enqueue upto tx_queue_len skbs for a total of 3*tx_queue_len skbs. I am not sure if this was the intention of limiting in qdisc. Patch compiled and 32 simultaneous netperf testing ran fine.

* Speed-up pfifo_fast lookup using a private bitmapKrishna Kumar2009-08-29
| | | | | | | | | | | Maintain a per-qdisc bitmap for pfifo_fast giving availability of skbs for each band. This allows faster lookup for a skb when there are no high priority skbs. Also, it helps in (rare) cases when there are no skbs on the list, where an immediate lookup is faster than iterating through the three bands.

* net: Avoid enqueuing skb for default qdiscsKrishna Kumar2009-08-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | dev_queue_xmit enqueue's a skb and calls qdisc_run which dequeue's the skb and xmits it. In most cases, the skb that is enqueue'd is the same one that is dequeue'd (unless the queue gets stopped or multiple cpu's write to the same queue and ends in a race with qdisc_run). For default qdiscs, we can remove the redundant enqueue/dequeue and simply xmit the skb since the default qdisc is work-conserving. The patch uses a new flag - TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS to identify the default fast queue. The controversial part of the patch is incrementing qlen when a skb is requeued - this is to avoid checks like the second line below: + } else if ((q->flags & TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS) && !qdisc_qlen(q) && >> !q->gso_skb && + !test_and_set_bit(__QDISC_STATE_RUNNING, &q->state)) { Results of a 2 hour testing for multiple netperf sessions (1, 2, 4, 8, 12 sessions on a 4 cpu system-X).

* net: tx scalability works : trans_startEric Dumazet2009-05-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | struct net_device trans_start field is a hot spot on SMP and high performance devices, particularly multi queues ones, because every transmitter dirties it. Is main use is tx watchdog and bonding alive checks. But as most devices dont use NETIF_F_LLTX, we have to lock a netdev_queue before calling their ndo_start_xmit(). So it makes sense to move trans_start from net_device to netdev_queue. Its update will occur on a already present (and in exclusive state) cache line, for free. We can do this transition smoothly. An old driver continue to update dev->trans_start, while an updated one updates txq->trans_start. Further patches could also put tx_bytes/tx_packets counters in netdev_queue to avoid dirtying dev->stats (vlan device comes to mind) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch changes the network device internal API to move adminstrative operations out of the network device structure and into a separate structure. This patch involves some hackery to maintain compatablity between the new and old model, so all 300+ drivers don't have to be changed at once. For drivers that aren't converted yet, the netdevice_ops virt function list still resides in the net_device structure. For old protocols, the new net_device_ops are copied out to the old net_device pointers. After the transistion is completed the nag message can be changed to an WARN_ON, and the compatiablity code can be made configurable. Some function pointers aren't moved: * destructor can't be in net_device_ops because it may need to be referenced after the module is unloaded. * neighbor setup is manipulated in a couple of places that need special consideration * hard_start_xmit is in the fast path for transmit.

We always either: 1) Never made an external reference to this qdisc. or 2) Did a dev_deactivate() which purged all asynchronous references.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This new state lets dev_deactivate() mark a qdisc as having been deactivated. dev_queue_xmit() and ing_filter() check for this bit and do not try to process the qdisc if the bit is set. dev_deactivate() polls the qdisc after setting the bit, waiting for both __QDISC_STATE_RUNNING and __QDISC_STATE_SCHED to clear.

* pkt_sched: Fix queue quiescence testing in dev_deactivate().David S. Miller2008-08-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Based upon discussions with Jarek P. and Herbert Xu. First, we're testing the wrong qdisc. We just reset the device queue qdiscs to &noop_qdisc and checking it's state is completely pointless here. We want to wait until the previous qdisc that was sitting at the ->qdisc pointer is not busy any more. And that would be ->qdisc_sleeping. Because of how we propagate the samples qdisc pointer down into qdisc_run and friends via per-cpu ->output_queue and netif_schedule, we have to wait also for the __QDISC_STATE_SCHED bit to clear as well.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug report from Steven Jan Springl: Issuing the following command causes a kernel oops: tc qdisc add dev eth0 handle ffff: ingress The problem mostly stems from all of the special case handling of ingress qdiscs. So, to fix this, do the grafting operation the same way we do for TX qdiscs. Which means that dev_activate() and dev_deactivate() now do the "qdisc_sleeping <--> qdisc" transitions on dev->rx_queue too. Future simplifications are possible now, mainly because it is impossible for dev_queue->{qdisc,qdisc_sleeping} to be NULL. There are NULL checks all over to handle the ingress qdisc special case that used to exist before this commit. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Idea is from Patrick McHardy. Instead of managing the list of qdiscs on the device level, manage it in the root qdisc of a netdev_queue. This solves all kinds of visibility issues during qdisc destruction. The way to iterate over all qdiscs of a netdev_queue is to visit the netdev_queue->qdisc, and then traverse it's list. The only special case is to ignore builting qdiscs at the root when dumping or doing a qdisc_lookup(). That was not needed previously because builtin qdiscs were not added to the device's qdisc_list.

* pkt_sched: Perform bulk of qdisc destruction in RCU.David S. Miller2008-07-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This allows less strict control of access to the qdisc attached to a netdev_queue. It is even allowed to enqueue into a qdisc which is in the process of being destroyed. The RCU handler will toss out those packets. We will need this to handle sharing of a qdisc amongst multiple TX queues. In such a setup the lock has to be shared, so will be inside of the qdisc itself. At which point the netdev_queue lock cannot be used to hard synchronize access to the ->qdisc pointer. One operation we have to keep inside of qdisc_destroy() is the list deletion. It is the only piece of state visible after the RCU quiesce period, so we have to undo it early and under the appropriate locking. The operations in the RCU handler do not need any looking because the qdisc tree is no longer visible to anything at that point. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
