This new IO address expression:
ioaddr + j * 2 + (j < 8 ? 0x4000 : 0x8000 - 16)
DOES NOT match what the existing code does. That 0x8000 - 16 seems
incorrect, the existing code always writes starting at 0x8000
in two byte increments, it does not start at 0x8000 - 16....
Oh nevermind, I see what you're doing. Once j gets to 8, we have
to account for that in the IO address computation.
You've murdered this code, it's even more obfuscated now than it was
previously. I'm not applying this, no way. To a fix an out of
bounds array access you're going to change the loop iteration factors
and all of the sub-expressions within' 3 loops too? Get real.
Just add the necessary limit tests, and nothing more, so it's
possible to actually understand your patch. If it's more than
a 3 line patch, I'm not even going to review it.

This won't work.
First of all, if we allocated at least one buffer we should
mark the last one in the code right after this loop.
Second of all, we should purge the TX skbs in the next
loop even if we could not allocate even one RX buffer.
The thing to do is probably to guard the set of "[i-1]" RX ring
accesses with a "if (i != 0)" check.

No matter what, you will do an inter-node memory operation.
Unless, the consumer NUMA node is the same as the one the
device is on.
Because since the device is on a NUMA node, if you DMA remotely
you've eaten the NUMA cost already.
If you always DMA to the device's NUMA node (what we try to do now) at
least the is the possibility of eliminating cross-NUMA traffic.
Better to move the application or stack processing towards the NUMA
node the network device is on, I think.

* [RFC] Idea about increasing efficency of skb allocation in network devices
From: Neil Horman @ 2009-07-27 0:36 UTC (permalink / raw)
To: netdev; +Cc: nhorman
Hey all-
I've been thinking of an idea lately, and I'm starting to tinker with
implementation, so I thought before I went to far down any one path, I'd like to
solicit for comments on it, just to avoid early design errors and the like.
Please find my proposal below. Feel free to openly ridicule it if you think its
completely off base or pointless. Any and all criticizm welcome. Thanks!
Problem Statement:
Currently the networking stack receive path consists of a set of
producers (the network drivers which allocate skbs to receive on the wire data
into), and a set of consumers (user space applications and other networking
devices which free those skbs when their use is finished). These consumers and
producders are dynamic (additional consumers and producers can be added alsmot
at will within the system). Currently, there exists an potential inefficiency
in this receive path when using NUMA systems. Given that allocation of skb data
buffers is done with only minimal regard to the NUMA node on which a producer
exists (following standard vm policy in which we try to allocate on the local
node first), it is entirely possible that a consumer of this frame data will
exist on a different NUMA node than the node on which it was allocated. This
disparity leads to slower copying when an application attempts to copy this data
from the kernel, as it must cross a greater number of memory bridges.
Proposed solution:
Since Network devices dma their memory into a provided DMA buffer (which
can usually be at an arbitrary location, as they must cross potentially several
pci busses to reach any memory location), I'm postulating that it would increase
our receive path efficiency to provide a hint to the driver layer as to which
node to allocate an skb data buffer on. This hint would be determined by a
feedback mechanism. I was thinking that we could provide a callback function
via the skb, that accepted the skb and the originating net_device. This
callback can track statistics on which numa nodes consume (read: copy data from)
skbs that were produced by specific net devices. Then, when in the future that
netdevice allocates a new skb (perhaps via netdev_alloc_skb), we can use that
statistical profile to determine if the data buffer should be allocated on the
local node, or on a remote node instead. Ideally, this 'consumer based
allocation bias' would allow us to reduce the amount of time it takes to
transfer recieved buffers to user space and make the overall receive path more
efficient. I see lots of opportunity here to develop tools to measure the
speedup this might provide (perhaps via ftrace plugins), as well as various
algorithms to better predict how to allocate skb's on various nodes.
Obviously, the code is going to do the talking here, but I wanted to get
the idea out there so that I anyone who wanted to could point out anything
obvious that would lead to the conclusion that I was nuts. Feel free to tear it
all apart, or, on the off chance that this has legs, suggestions for
improvements/features that you might like.
Thanks!
Neil

(max) i = 64, (max) j = 14, (64+14+16)/2 = 47 < 69, so it seems to copy
less than its size?

* Re: r8169 (+others ?) and note_interrupt performance hit on 2.6.30.x
From: Michal Soltys @ 2009-07-26 18:43 UTC (permalink / raw)

In-Reply-To: <20090726091803.GA28374@electric-eye.fr.zoreil.com>
I did some more tests, with kernel booted both with noirqdebug and
without (as this decides if note_interrupt gets called from
handle_edge_irq).
As far as cpu load goes, everything remained the same - 100% on chosen
core, unable to reach 1gbit. When noirqdebug was enabled, oprofile showed
majority of time spent in handle_edge_irq:
CPU: AMD64 processors, speed 2517.35 MHz (estimated)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
From a breif look over the above, rtl8169_rx_interrupt
is not called in noirqdebug case, and handle_edge_irq gets called
from within handle_edge_irq ?
Anwyay, not sure if this is useful, so if there is anything better
I could do, just push me in the right direction.

* [PATCH] netxen: reset ring consumer during cleanup
From: Dhananjay Phadke @ 2009-07-26 18:20 UTC (permalink / raw)
To: davem; +Cc: netdev
Reset consumer of status rings to 0 when cleaning
up sw resources. Status rings are not deleted
during suspend since they have napi objects.
This ensures correct rx processing across suspen-resume.

Certainly! But FWIW I think most of those are about patches that I
have not yet sent to you, so I don't think you need to worry a lot
about your tree ATM.

Pulled, thanks a lot John!
Please try to resolve the regression reports that I saw posted against
wireless-testing on the same day you sent this pull request.
