net: openvswitch: use u64 for meter bucket

2020-04-24T01:26:11+00:00

When setting the meter rate to 4+Gbps, there is an overflow, the meters don't work as expected. Cc: Pravin B Shelar Cc: Andy Zhou Signed-off-by: Tonghao Zhang Acked-by: Pravin B Shelar Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: openvswitch: set max limitation to meters

2020-04-24T01:26:11+00:00

Don't allow user to create meter unlimitedly, which may cause to consume a large amount of kernel memory. The max number supported is decided by physical memory and 20K meters as default.

net: openvswitch: expand the meters supported number

2020-04-24T01:26:11+00:00

In kernel datapath of Open vSwitch, there are only 1024 buckets of meter in one datapath. If installing more than 1024 (e.g. 8192) meters, it may lead to the performance drop. But in some case, for example, Open vSwitch used as edge gateway, there should be 20K at least, where meters used for IP address bandwidth limitation. [Open vSwitch userspace datapath has this issue too.] For more scalable meter, this patch use meter array instead of hash tables, and expand/shrink the array when necessary. So we can install more meters than before in the datapath. Introducing the struct *dp_meter_instance, it's easy to expand meter though changing the *ti point in the struct *dp_meter_table.

openvswitch: Add meter infrastructure

2017-11-13T01:37:07+00:00

OVS kernel datapath so far does not support Openflow meter action. This is the first stab at adding kernel datapath meter support. This implementation supports only drop band type. Signed-off-by: Andy Zhou Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
