2017-02-08gro_cells: move to net/core/gro_cells.cEric Dumazet
We have many gro cells users, so lets move the code to avoid duplication. This creates a CONFIG_GRO_CELLS option. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2016-11-15gro_cells: mark napi struct as not busy poll candidatesEric Dumazet
Rolf Neugebauer reported very long delays at netns dismantle. Eric W. Biederman was kind enough to look at this problem and noticed synchronize_net() occurring from netif_napi_del() that was added in linux-4.5 Busy polling makes no sense for tunnels NAPI. If busy poll is used for sessions over tunnels, the poller will need to poll the physical device queue anyway. netif_tx_napi_add() could be used here, but function name is misleading, and renaming it is not stable material, so set NAPI_STATE_NO_BUSY_POLL bit directly. This will avoid inserting gro_cells napi structures in napi_hash[] and avoid the problematic synchronize_net() (per possible cpu) that Rolf reported.

2015-08-31gro_cells: remove spinlock protecting receive queuesEric Dumazet
As David pointed out, spinlock are no longer needed to protect the per cpu queues used in gro cells infrastructure. Also use new napi_complete_done() API so that gro_flush_timeout tweaks have an effect. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2015-01-18ip_tunnel: Create percpu gro_cellMartin KaFai Lau
In the ipip tunnel, the skb->queue_mapping is lost in ipip_rcv(). All skb will be queued to the same cell->napi_skbs. The gro_cell_poll is pinned to one core under load. In production traffic, we also see severe rx_dropped in the tunl iface and it is probably due to this limit: skb_queue_len(&cell->napi_skbs) > netdev_max_backlog. This patch is trying to alloc_percpu(struct gro_cell) and schedule gro_cell_poll to process the skb in the same core.

2012-12-11net: fix a race in gro_cell_poll()Eric Dumazet
Dmitry Kravkov reported packet drops for GRE packets since GRO support was added. There is a race in gro_cell_poll() because we call napi_complete() without any synchronization with a concurrent gro_cells_receive() Once bug was triggered, we queued packets but did not schedule NAPI poll. We can fix this issue using the spinlock protected the napi_skbs queue, as we have to hold it to perform skb dequeue anyway. As we open-code skb_dequeue(), we no longer need to mask IRQS, as both producer and consumer run under BH context.

2012-10-01net: add gro_cells infrastructureEric Dumazet
This adds a new include file (include/net/gro_cells.h), to bring GRO (Generic Receive Offload) capability to tunnels, in a modular way. Because tunnels receive path is lockless, and GRO adds a serialization using a napi_struct, I chose to add an array of up to DEFAULT_MAX_NUM_RSS_QUEUES cells, so that multi queue devices wont be slowed down because of GRO layer. skb_get_rx_queue() is used as selector. In the future, we might add optional fanout capabilities, using rxhash for example. With help from Ben Hutchings who reminded me netif_get_num_default_rss_queues() function.
