[PATCH v2 net-next v2 2/5] net: add support for segmenting TCP fraglist GSO packets

[Felix Fietkau]

Preparation for adding TCP fraglist GRO support. It expects packets to be
combined in a similar way as UDP fraglist GSO packets.
For IPv4 packets, NAT is handled in the same way as UDP fraglist GSO.

Vestigial, now that flag overwrite is removed in v2?

All this code is very similar to __udpv4_gso_segment_list_csum. But
the zero checksum handling in __udpv4_gso_segment_csum makes it just
different enough that I also do not immediately see a straightforward
way to avoid duplicating.

Also, the checksum field is in a different location in the udp header. I 
don't think avoiding duplication makes sense here.

[PATCH v2 net-next v2 3/5] net: add code for TCP fraglist GRO

[Felix Fietkau]

This implements fraglist GRO similar to how it's handled in UDP, however
no functional changes are added yet. The next change adds a heuristic for
using fraglist GRO instead of regular GRO.

The fraglist codepath is not updating the TCP flags of the first packet, 
so the extra check ensures it doesn't have to.

[PATCH v2 net-next v2 4/4] net: add heuristic for enabling TCP fraglist GRO

[Felix Fietkau]

When forwarding TCP after GRO, software segmentation is very expensive,
especially when the checksum needs to be recalculated.
One case where that's currently unavoidable is when routing packets over
PPPoE. Performance improves significantly when using fraglist GRO
implemented in the same way as for UDP.

When NETIF_F_GRO_FRAGLIST is enabled, perform a lookup for an established
socket in the same netns as the receiving device. While this may not
cover all relevant use cases in multi-netns configurations, it should be
good enough for most configurations that need this.

Here's a measurement of running 2 TCP streams through a MediaTek MT7622
device (2-core Cortex-A53), which runs NAT with flow offload enabled from
one ethernet port to PPPoE on another ethernet port + cake qdisc set to
1Gbps.

rx-gro-list off: 630 Mbit/s, CPU 35% idle
rx-gro-list on:  770 Mbit/s, CPU 40% idle

[PATCH v2 net-next v2 4/5] net: create tcp_gro_lookup helper function

[Felix Fietkau]

This pulls the flow port matching out of tcp_gro_receive, so that it can be
reused for the next change, which adds the TCP fraglist GRO heuristic.

I do not think loading iph before all skb_gro_header() and
skb_gro_header_slow() calls is wise.

pskb_may_pull() can re-allocate skb->head

I would probably pull the whole TCP header here, before calling
tcp4_check_fraglist_gro(head, skb)
and no longer do this twice from tcp4_check_fraglist_gro() and tcp_gro_receive()

Perhaps define a new inline helper, that will be called from
tcp4_gro_receive() and tcp6_gro_receive(),
and not anymore from  tcp_gro_receive()

static inline struct tcphdr *tcp_gro_pull_header(...)
{
     ....
       off = skb_gro_offset(skb);
       hlen = off + sizeof(*th);
       th = skb_gro_header(skb, hlen, off);
       if (unlikely(!th))
               return NULL;

       thlen = th->doff * 4;
       if (thlen < sizeof(*th))
               return NULL;

       hlen = off + thlen;
       if (!skb_gro_may_pull(skb, hlen))
               th = skb_gro_header_slow(skb, hlen, off);

      return th;
}
