ipv4: Convert ip_route_input() to dscp_t.

2025-03-07T15:45:39+00:00

[ Upstream commit 7e863e5db6185b1add0df4cb01b31a4ed1c4b738 ] Pass a dscp_t variable to ip_route_input(), instead of a plain u8, to prevent accidental setting of ECN bits in ->flowi4_tos. Callers of ip_route_input() to consider are: * input_action_end_dx4_finish() and input_action_end_dt4() in net/ipv6/seg6_local.c. These functions set the tos parameter to 0, which is already a valid dscp_t value, so they don't need to be adjusted for the new prototype. * icmp_route_lookup(), which already has a dscp_t variable to pass as parameter. We just need to remove the inet_dscp_to_dsfield() conversion. * br_nf_pre_routing_finish(), ip_options_rcv_srr() and ip4ip6_err(), which get the DSCP directly from IPv4 headers. Define a helper to read the .tos field of struct iphdr as dscp_t, so that these function don't have to do the conversion manually. While there, declare *iph as const in br_nf_pre_routing_finish(), declare its local variables in reverse-christmas-tree order and move the "err = ip_route_input()" assignment out of the conditional to avoid checkpatch warning.

ipv4: Drop tos parameter from flowi4_update_output()

2023-06-02T09:52:38+00:00

Callers of flowi4_update_output() never try to update ->flowi4_tos: * ip_route_connect() updates ->flowi4_tos with its own current value. * ip_route_newports() has two users: tcp_v4_connect() and dccp_v4_connect. Both initialise fl4 with ip_route_connect(), which in turn sets ->flowi4_tos with RT_TOS(inet_sk(sk)->tos) and ->flowi4_scope based on SOCK_LOCALROUTE. Then ip_route_newports() updates ->flowi4_tos with RT_CONN_FLAGS(sk), which is the same as RT_TOS(inet_sk(sk)->tos), unless SOCK_LOCALROUTE is set on the socket. In that case, the lowest order bit is set to 1, to eventually inform ip_route_output_key_hash() to restrict the scope to RT_SCOPE_LINK. This is equivalent to properly setting ->flowi4_scope as ip_route_connect() did. * ip_vs_xmit.c initialises ->flowi4_tos with memset(0), then calls flowi4_update_output() with tos=0. * sctp_v4_get_dst() uses the same RT_CONN_FLAGS_TOS() when initialising ->flowi4_tos and when calling flowi4_update_output(). In the end, ->flowi4_tos never changes. So let's just drop the tos parameter. This will simplify the conversion of ->flowi4_tos from __u8 to dscp_t.

net: dst: Prevent false sharing vs. dst_entry:: __refcnt

2023-03-29T01:52:22+00:00

dst_entry::__refcnt is highly contended in scenarios where many connections happen from and to the same IP. The reference count is an atomic_t, so the reference count operations have to take the cache-line exclusive. Aside of the unavoidable reference count contention there is another significant problem which is caused by that: False sharing. perf top identified two affected read accesses. dst_entry::lwtstate and rtable::rt_genid. dst_entry:__refcnt is located at offset 64 of dst_entry, which puts it into a seperate cacheline vs. the read mostly members located at the beginning of the struct. That prevents false sharing vs. the struct members in the first 64 bytes of the structure, but there is also dst_entry::lwtstate which is located after the reference count and in the same cache line. This member is read after a reference count has been acquired. struct rtable embeds a struct dst_entry at offset 0. struct dst_entry has a size of 112 bytes, which means that the struct members of rtable which follow the dst member share the same cache line as dst_entry::__refcnt. Especially rtable::rt_genid is also read by the contexts which have a reference count acquired already. When dst_entry:__refcnt is incremented or decremented via an atomic operation these read accesses stall. This was found when analysing the memtier benchmark in 1:100 mode, which amplifies the problem extremly. Move the rt[6i]_uncached[_list] members out of struct rtable and struct rt6_info into struct dst_entry to provide padding and move the lwtstate member after that so it ends up in the same cache line. The resulting improvement depends on the micro-architecture and the number of CPUs. It ranges from +20% to +120% with a localhost memtier/memcached benchmark.
