* Re: [RFCv4 PATCH 2/2] net: Allow protocols to provide an unlocked_recvmsg socket method
From: Nir Tzachar @ 2009-09-17 14:09 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

In-Reply-To: <20090916170745.GD7699@ghostprotocols.net>

Hello.

Below are some test results with the patch (only part 1, as I did not
manage to apply part 2).
The test application is attached below, and works as follows:

I set out to measure the latency which can be saved by this patch, and
the application is designed accordingly. It is composed of three
parts: a producer, which time-stamps packets and sends them as fast as
possible, a mirror, which receives messages and bounces them to a
remote destination and finally, a consumer, which receives messages as
fast as possible and measures latency and throughout.

Both the produce and consumer are executed on the same host and the
mirror on a remote host. Both hosts are running linux 2.6.31 with v4
of the patch (but, as I said before, only part 1, with the unlocked_*
stuff). All processes are executed under SCHED_FIFO. Both hosts are
connected by a switched 1G Ethernet network. The mirror is executed on
a 8-core nahelem beast, and the producer and consumer on my desktop,
which is a quad. /proc/cpuinfo and lspcis and .configs can be supplied
if needed. Network cards are Intel Corporation 82566DM-2 Gigabit
Network and Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme II BCM5709 Gigabit
Ethernet.

The results (which follow below) clearly show the advantages of using
recvmmsg over recvmsg both latency wise and throughput wise. The
addition of a sendmmsg would also have a huge impact, IMO.
Receiving batches of 30 packets, each of 1024 bytes, results with no
latency improvements, but with a ~55% throughput improvement, from 72
megabytes per second to  111. Repeating the same test, but with
batches of 3000, displays the same behaviour. The more interesting
result (to me, at least :) is when using small packets. Sending
packets of size 100 and receiving in batches of 30  gives 470 micro
latency and 244669 packets per second. On the other hand, without
recvmmsg we get 750 micro latency and 210818 packets per second. A
huge improvement here.

I think that with a bit more tinkering we can even stretch these results a bit.

Cheers.

The results:

i'd guess it's an issue of support resources.  a hardware developer
creates a chip and immediately sells it, getting small but assured
revenue, with it they write (or pays to write) drivers for a couple of
releases, and stop to manufacture it as soon as it's not profitable.

software has a much longer lifetime, especially at the platform-level
(and KVM is a platform for a lot of us). also, being GPL, it's cheaper
to produce but has (much!) more limited resources.  creating a new
support issue is a scary thought.

* Transmit timeouts with forcedeth card in 2.6.30.4
From: Chris Webb @ 2009-09-17 15:47 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: netdev, linux-kernel
In-Reply-To: <20090915224925.GA4630@alpha.arachsys.com>

Hi. I'm occasionally seeing the following transmit time-out from a forcedeth
ethernet interface with linux 2.6.30.4. We have a cluster of identical machines
with Supermicro H8DMT motherboards on which there are two such interfaces
integrated, and these errors appear on random machines across the cluster,
about once every two or three weeks per machine.

Following this error, it is impossible to ping in or out, but it is restored
back to life by a simple

  ip link set eth0 down
  ip link set eth0 up

The eth0 is enslaved to a bridge and has the mtu set at the default 1500. A
second forcedeth nic in the same machine with mtu set at 9000 and not joined to
bridge doesn't seem to suffer from this problem, although it may have much
lower traffic in any case.

Oh yes, everything _should_ be a syscall.

The problem is that many things are too "amorphous" to be system calls, 
and don't have any sane generic semantics (ie they only act on a specific 
device node). So we have ioctl's etc for those things.

And then we have page faults. I've long wished that from a system call 
tracing standpoint we could show page faults as pseudo-system-calls (at 
least as long as they happen from user space - trying to handle nesting is 
not worth it). It would make it _so_ much more obvious what the 
performance patterns are if you could just do

	strace -ttT firefox

for the cold-cache case and you'd see where the time is really spent.

(yeah, yeah, you can get that kind of information other ways, but it's a 
hell of a lot less convenient than just getting a nice trace with 
timestamps).

Yes, strace can fix things up, and show "send a packet" as "fanotify". But 
it's nasty and hard. 

Quite frankly, I have _never_ever_ seen a good reason for talking to the 
kernel with some idiotic packet interface. It's just a fancy way to do 
ioctl's, and everybody knows that ioctl's are bad and evil. Why are fancy 
packet interfaces suddenly much better?

For now i've turned pktgen off in my tests. Will check it again once 
things have calmed down somewhat.

Also, i just tried to reproduce the pktgen crash with latest -git and 
the config i sent - no luck, so i cannot test Cyrill's patch either.

Btw., we are seeing some other preempt count and task related 
weirdnesses as well in other code, maybe it's related. No good pattern 
yet to act upon.

Anyway - please disregard this bugreport until i've investigated it 
closer.

| For now i've turned pktgen off in my tests. Will check it again once 
| things have calmed down somewhat.
| 
| Also, i just tried to reproduce the pktgen crash with latest -git and 
| the config i sent - no luck, so i cannot test Cyrill's patch either.
| 
| Btw., we are seeing some other preempt count and task related 
| weirdnesses as well in other code, maybe it's related. No good pattern 
| yet to act upon.
| 
| Anyway - please disregard this bugreport until i've investigated it 
| closer.

I'm unable to reproduce this issue too. I was trying
many ways (under kvm) -- no bug triggered. Though on
a system for which I had done this patch in first place
the bug was been hitting all the time (but it contains
custom vcpu management code, which is not our case here).

1) The idea to use ->close() and then a ->open() to refresh multicast
   addresses in the bonding driver was a bad idea and breaks a bunch
   of stuff.  Better scheme from Moni Shoua.

2) Some TCP code still assuming ssthresh was a u16, oops.  Fix from
   Ilpo Järvinen.

3) RXRPC updates from David Howells.

4) genetlink table locking busted with netns, fix from Johannes Berg.

5) Several fixes for multiq packet scheduler fallout from Jarek Poplawski.

6) can receives packets in wrong context eliciting warnings from
   local_softirq_pending(), fix from Oliver Hartkopp.

7) TCP MD5 code has preempt level imbalance, fix from Robert Varga.

8) SKY2 bug fixes from Stephen Hemminger.

9) Alexey Dobriyan is const'ified several protocol and ops structures.

10) Wireless bug fixes via John Linville.

11) IPV6 conformance fix wrt ROUTER_PREF_INVALID options and making
    the DAD failure log message more informative, from Jens Rosenboom.

12) S390 IUCV stack fixes from Ursula Braun and Hendrik Brueckner.

13) ieee802154 stack fixes from Dmitry Eremin-Solenikov.

Please pull, thanks a lot!

I rewrote the interface and prototyped out a working fanotify like so:

SYSCALL_DEFINE4(fanotify_init, unsigned int, flags, int, event_f_flags,
		__u64, mask, int, priority)

int flags indicates - things like global or directed, fd's or wd's,
could include fail allow vs fail deny, O_CLOEXEC, O_NONBLOCK, etc
int event_f_flags - flags used when opening an fd for the listener
__u64 mask - in global mode the events of interest
int priority - the order fanotify listeners should be checked (so HSM
		can be before AV scanners)

Do we need a timeout for access decisions?  I left room for that in the
bind address, but we can't just leave room to spare with a syscall...

SYSCALL_DEFINE6(fanotify_modify_mark, int, fanotify_fd,
		unsigned int, flags, int, fd,
		const char  __user *, pathname, __u64, mask,
		__u64, ignored_mask)

int fanotify_fd - duh
int flags - add, remove, flush, events on child, event on subtree?
int fd - either fd to object or fd to dir for relative pathname
const char __user * pathname - either pathname or null if only use fd
__u64 mask - events this inode cares about
__u64 ignored_mask - events this inode does NOT care about

(not yet done, would someone like to comment?)
fanotify_response(int fanotify_fd, __u64 cookie, __u32 response);
__u64 cookie - which of our permission requests we are waiting on
__u32 response - allow, deny, wait longer

Could be done using write(), but I think the strace argument clearly
says that this should be a syscall that can be easily found and reported

(not settled in my mind)
int fanotify_ignore_sb(int fanotify_fd, unsigned int flags,
                       long f_type, fsid_t f_fsid)
int fanotify_fd - duh
unsigned int flags - f_type or fsid?
long f_type - statfs(2) f_type
fsid_t f_fsid - statfs(2) f_fsid

Reads from the fd would return data of this structure:

struct fanotify_event_metadata {
	__u32 event_len;
	__u32 vers;
	__s32 fd;
	__u32 mask;
	__u32 f_flags;
	__s32 pid;
	__s32 uid;
	__s32 tgid;
	__u64 cookie;
}  __attribute__((packed));

Thanks to event_len and vers, we could extend it to include

__u32 filename1_len,
char filename1[filename1_len]
__u32 filename2_len,
char filename2[filename2_len]

This can all take shape as that work is completed and I don't believe
should block merging.

Do my syscalls look pretty enough?  I'm down to 3 or 4.
Jamie, you tend to agree that the interface and the event types are nice
enough that we can build out (if we get the right hooks in the right
places) everywhere we need to go?

Hello Stephen Hemminger,

My fix up is as followings;
	Even if the irq is not shared, it is safe not to process
	when there is no interrupt status change in the hardware.

====================
@@ -818,6 +811,11 @@ static irqreturn_t ks_irq(int irq, void 
 	ks_save_cmd_reg(ks);
 
 	status = ks_rdreg16(ks, KS_ISR);

+		return IRQ_NONE;
+	}
+
 	ks_wrreg16(ks, KS_ISR, status);
 
 	if (likely(status & IRQ_RXI))

if status == 0 or status == ~0 then device should not return
IRQ_HANDLED.
In the former case, the IRQ is shared, in later case the device is not
present
on the bus (hotplug).
