[PATCH V2 net 0/4] net: fec: fix some issues of ndo_xdp_xmit()

[wei.fang]

From: Wei Fang <wei.fang@nxp.com>

We encountered some issues when testing the ndo_xdp_xmit() interface
of the fec driver on i.MX8MP and i.MX93 platforms. These issues are
easy to reproduce, and the specific reproduction steps are as follows.

step1: The ethernet port of a board (board A) is connected to the EQOS
port of i.MX8MP/i.MX93, and the FEC port of i.MX8MP/i.MX93 is connected
to another ethernet port, such as a switch port.

step2: Board A uses the pktgen_sample03_burst_single_flow.sh to generate
and send packets to i.MX8MP/i.MX93. The command is shown below.
./pktgen_sample03_burst_single_flow.sh -i eth0 -d 192.168.6.8 -m \
56:bf:0d:68:b0:9e -s 1500

step3: i.MX8MP/i.MX93 use the xdp_redirect bfp program to redirect the
XDP frames from EQOS port to FEC port. The command is shown below.
./xdp_redirect eth1 eth0

After a few moments, the warning or error logs will be printed in the
console, for more details, please refer to the commit message of each
patch.

Wei Fang (4):
  net: fec: dynamically set the NETDEV_XDP_ACT_NDO_XMIT feature of XDP
  net: fec: recycle pages for transmitted XDP frames
  net: fec: increase the size of tx ring and update tx_wake_threshold
  net: fec: use netdev_err_once() instead of netdev_err()

[PATCH V2 net 1/4] net: fec: dynamically set the NETDEV_XDP_ACT_NDO_XMIT feature of XDP

[wei.fang]

From: Wei Fang <wei.fang@nxp.com>

When a XDP program is installed or uninstalled, fec_restart() will
be invoked to reset MAC and buffer descriptor rings. It's reasonable
not to transmit any packet during the process of reset. However, the
NETDEV_XDP_ACT_NDO_XMIT bit of xdp_features is enabled by default,
that is to say, it's possible that the fec_enet_xdp_xmit() will be
invoked even if the process of reset is not finished. In this case,
the redirected XDP frames might be dropped and available transmit BDs
may be incorrectly deemed insufficient. So this patch disable the
NETDEV_XDP_ACT_NDO_XMIT feature by default and dynamically configure
this feature when the bpf program is installed or uninstalled.

[PATCH V2 net 2/4] net: fec: recycle pages for transmitted XDP frames

[wei.fang]

From: Wei Fang <wei.fang@nxp.com>

Once the XDP frames have been successfully transmitted through the
ndo_xdp_xmit() interface, it's the driver responsibility to free
the frames so that the page_pool can recycle the pages and reuse
them. However, this action is not implemented in the fec driver.
This leads to a user-visible problem that the console will print
the following warning log.

[  157.568851] page_pool_release_retry() stalled pool shutdown 1389 inflight 60 sec
[  217.983446] page_pool_release_retry() stalled pool shutdown 1389 inflight 120 sec
[  278.399006] page_pool_release_retry() stalled pool shutdown 1389 inflight 181 sec
[  338.812885] page_pool_release_retry() stalled pool shutdown 1389 inflight 241 sec
[  399.226946] page_pool_release_retry() stalled pool shutdown 1389 inflight 302 sec

Therefore, to solve this issue, we free XDP frames via xdp_return_frame()
while cleaning the tx BD ring.

[PATCH V2 net 3/4] net: fec: increase the size of tx ring and update tx_wake_threshold

[wei.fang]

From: Wei Fang <wei.fang@nxp.com>

When the XDP feature is enabled and with heavy XDP frames to be
transmitted, there is a considerable probability that available
tx BDs are insufficient. This will lead to some XDP frames to be
discarded and the "NOT enough BD for SG!" error log will appear
in the console (as shown below).

[  160.013112] fec 30be0000.ethernet eth0: NOT enough BD for SG!
[  160.023116] fec 30be0000.ethernet eth0: NOT enough BD for SG!
[  160.028926] fec 30be0000.ethernet eth0: NOT enough BD for SG!
[  160.038946] fec 30be0000.ethernet eth0: NOT enough BD for SG!
[  160.044758] fec 30be0000.ethernet eth0: NOT enough BD for SG!

In the case of heavy XDP traffic, sometimes the speed of recycling
tx BDs may be slower than the speed of sending XDP frames. There
may be several specific reasons, such as the interrupt is not
responsed in time, the efficiency of the NAPI callback function is
too low due to all the queues (tx queues and rx queues) share the
same NAPI, and so on.

After trying various methods, I think that increase the size of tx
BD ring is simple and effective. Maybe the best resolution is that
allocate NAPI for each queue to improve the efficiency of the NAPI
callback, but this change is a bit big and I didn't try this method.
Perheps this method will be implemented in a future patch.

This patch also updates the tx_wake_threshold of tx ring which is
related to the size of tx ring in the previous logic. Otherwise,
the tx_wake_threshold will be too high (403 BDs), which is more
likely to impact the slow path in the case of heavy XDP traffic,
because XDP path and slow path share the tx BD rings. According
to Jakub's suggestion, the tx_wake_threshold is at least equal to
tx_stop_threshold + 2 * MAX_SKB_FRAGS, if a queue of hundreds of
entries is overflowing, we should be able to apply a hysteresis
of a few tens of entries.

Fixes: 6d6b39f180b8 ("net: fec: add initial XDP support")
Signed-off-by: Wei Fang <wei.fang@nxp.com>
---
V2 change:
1. Keep the tx_stop_threshold unchanged and change the
tx_wake_threshold to tx_stop_threshold + 2 * MAX_SKB_FRAGS.
2. Split the change, the netdev_err_once() is moved to a
separate patch.
3. Modify the commit message and subject ppropriately.

[PATCH V2 net 4/4] net: fec: use netdev_err_once() instead of netdev_err()

[wei.fang]

From: Wei Fang <wei.fang@nxp.com>

In the case of heavy XDP traffic to be transmitted, the console
will print the error log continuously if there are lack of enough
BDs to accommodate the frames. The log looks like below.

[  160.013112] fec 30be0000.ethernet eth0: NOT enough BD for SG!
[  160.023116] fec 30be0000.ethernet eth0: NOT enough BD for SG!
[  160.028926] fec 30be0000.ethernet eth0: NOT enough BD for SG!
[  160.038946] fec 30be0000.ethernet eth0: NOT enough BD for SG!
[  160.044758] fec 30be0000.ethernet eth0: NOT enough BD for SG!

Not only will this log be replicated and redundant, it will also
degrade XDP performance. So we use netdev_err_once() instead of
netdev_err() now.

Here and in the related places below: maybe set ::type dynamically when
sending to either SKB or XDP instead of setting it only for XDP and then
restoring each time?

I also considered this method. but when the skb has frags or needs to be TSO,
only the last tx_buf of the skb needs to store the skb pointer, but all the tx_buf
of the skb needs to set the type explicitly, I think it is a bit mess and not concise.
So I restore the type to default when recycle the BDs. Anyway, it;s just a difference
in implement, if you guys insist it's better to set the type explicitly, I will modify
the patch. Thanks!

Just more of personal preference, no problems. Moreover, your
explanation makes sense to me.
