sctp: add fair capacity stream scheduler

2023-03-09T10:31:44+00:00

As it says in rfc8260#section-3.5 about the fair capacity scheduler: A fair capacity distribution between the streams is used. This scheduler considers the lengths of the messages of each stream and schedules them in a specific way to maintain an equal capacity for all streams. The details are implementation dependent. interleaving user messages allows for a better realization of the fair capacity usage. This patch adds Fair Capacity Scheduler based on the foundations added by commit 5bbbbe32a431 ("sctp: introduce stream scheduler foundations"): A fc_list and a fc_length are added into struct sctp_stream_out_ext and a fc_list is added into struct sctp_stream. In .enqueue, when there are chunks enqueued into a stream, this stream will be linked into stream-> fc_list by its fc_list ordered by its fc_length. In .dequeue, it always picks up the 1st skb from stream->fc_list. In .dequeue_done, fc_length is increased by chunk's len and update its location in stream->fc_list according to the its new fc_length. Note that when the new fc_length overflows in .dequeue_done, instead of resetting all fc_lengths to 0, we only reduced them by U32_MAX / 4 to avoid a moment of imbalance in the scheduling, as Marcelo suggested.

sctp: implement make_datafrag for sctp_stream_interleave

2017-12-11T16:23:04+00:00

To avoid hundreds of checks for the different process on I-DATA chunk, struct sctp_stream_interleave is defined as a group of functions used to replace the codes in some place where it needs to do different job according to if the asoc intl_enabled is set. With these ops, it only needs to initialize asoc->stream.si with sctp_stream_interleave_0 for normal data if asoc intl_enable is 0, or sctp_stream_interleave_1 for idata if asoc intl_enable is set in sctp_stream_init. After that, the members in asoc->stream.si can be used directly in some special places without checking asoc intl_enable. make_datafrag is the first member for sctp_stream_interleave, it's used to make data or idata frags, called in sctp_datamsg_from_user. The old function sctp_make_datafrag_empty needs to be adjust some to fit in this ops. Note that as idata and data chunks have different length, it also defines data_chunk_len for sctp_stream_interleave to describe the chunk size.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

2017-11-02T10:10:55+00:00

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches. Reviewed-by: Kate Stewart Reviewed-by: Philippe Ombredanne Reviewed-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

sctp: introduce round robin stream scheduler

2017-10-03T23:27:29+00:00

This patch introduces RFC Draft ndata section 3.2 Priority Based Scheduler (SCTP_SS_RR). Works by maintaining a list of enqueued streams and tracking the last one used to send data. When the datamsg is done, it switches to the next stream.

sctp: introduce priority based stream scheduler

2017-10-03T23:27:29+00:00

This patch introduces RFC Draft ndata section 3.4 Priority Based Scheduler (SCTP_SS_PRIO). It works by having a struct sctp_stream_priority for each priority configured. This struct is then enlisted on a queue ordered per priority if, and only if, there is a stream with data queued, so that dequeueing is very straightforward: either finish current datamsg or simply dequeue from the highest priority queued, which is the next stream pointed, and that's it. If there are multiple streams assigned with the same priority and with data queued, it will do round robin amongst them while respecting datamsgs boundaries (when not using idata chunks), to be reasonably fair. We intentionally don't maintain a list of priorities nor a list of all streams with the same priority to save memory. The first would mean at least 2 other pointers per priority (which, for 1000 priorities, that can mean 16kB) and the second would also mean 2 other pointers but per stream. As SCTP supports up to 65535 streams on a given asoc, that's 1MB. This impacts when giving a priority to some stream, as we have to find out if the new priority is already being used and if we can free the old one, and also when tearing down. The new fields in struct sctp_stream_out_ext and sctp_stream are added under a union because that memory is to be shared with other schedulers.

sctp: introduce stream scheduler foundations

2017-10-03T23:27:29+00:00

This patch introduces the hooks necessary to do stream scheduling, as per RFC Draft ndata. It also introduces the first scheduler, which is what we do today but now factored out: first come first served (FCFS). With stream scheduling now we have to track which chunk was enqueued on which stream and be able to select another other than the in front of the main outqueue. So we introduce a list on sctp_stream_out_ext structure for this purpose. We reuse sctp_chunk->transmitted_list space for the list above, as the chunk cannot belong to the two lists at the same time. By using the union in there, we can have distinct names for these moments. sctp_sched_ops are the operations expected to be implemented by each scheduler. The dequeueing is a bit particular to this implementation but it is to match how we dequeue packets today. We first dequeue and then check if it fits the packet and if not, we requeue it at head. Thus why we don't have a peek operation but have dequeue_done instead, which is called once the chunk can be safely considered as transmitted. The check removed from sctp_outq_flush is now performed by sctp_stream_outq_migrate, which is only called during assoc setup. (sctp_sendmsg() also checks for it) The only operation that is foreseen but not yet added here is a way to signalize that a new packet is starting or that the packet is done, for round robin scheduler per packet, but is intentionally left to the patch that actually implements it. Support for I-DATA chunks, also described in this RFC, with user message interleaving is straightforward as it just requires the schedulers to probe for the feature and ignore datamsg boundaries when dequeueing.

sctp: prepare asoc stream for stream reconf

2017-01-07T02:07:26+00:00

sctp stream reconf, described in RFC 6525, needs a structure to save per stream information in assoc, like stream state. In the future, sctp stream scheduler also needs it to save some stream scheduler params and queues. This patchset is to prepare the stream array in assoc for stream reconf. It defines sctp_stream that includes stream arrays inside to replace ssnmap. Note that we use different structures for IN and OUT streams, as the members in per OUT stream will get more and more different from per IN stream. v1->v2: - put these patches into a smaller group. v2->v3: - define sctp_stream to contain stream arrays, and create stream.c to put stream-related functions. - merge 3 patches into 1, as new sctp_stream has the same name with before.
