2017-07-13mm, tree wide: replace __GFP_REPEAT by __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL with more useful ↵Michal Hocko1-1/+1
semantic __GFP_REPEAT was designed to allow retry-but-eventually-fail semantic to the page allocator. This has been true but only for allocations requests larger than PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER. It has been always ignored for smaller sizes. This is a bit unfortunate because there is no way to express the same semantic for those requests and they are considered too important to fail so they might end up looping in the page allocator for ever, similarly to GFP_NOFAIL requests. Now that the whole tree has been cleaned up and accidental or misled usage of __GFP_REPEAT flag has been removed for !costly requests we can give the original flag a better name and more importantly a more useful semantic. Let's rename it to __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL which tells the user that the allocator would try really hard but there is no promise of a success. This will work independent of the order and overrides the default allocator behavior. Page allocator users have several levels of guarantee vs. cost options (take GFP_KERNEL as an example) - GFP_KERNEL & ~__GFP_RECLAIM - optimistic allocation without _any_ attempt to free memory at all. The most light weight mode which even doesn't kick the background reclaim. Should be used carefully because it might deplete the memory and the next user might hit the more aggressive reclaim - GFP_KERNEL & ~__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM (or GFP_NOWAIT)- optimistic allocation without any attempt to free memory from the current context but can wake kswapd to reclaim memory if the zone is below the low watermark. Can be used from either atomic contexts or when the request is a performance optimization and there is another fallback for a slow path. - (GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_HIGH) & ~__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM (aka GFP_ATOMIC) - non sleeping allocation with an expensive fallback so it can access some portion of memory reserves. Usually used from interrupt/bh context with an expensive slow path fallback. - GFP_KERNEL - both background and direct reclaim are allowed and the _default_ page allocator behavior is used. That means that !costly allocation requests are basically nofail but there is no guarantee of that behavior so failures have to be checked properly by callers (e.g. OOM killer victim is allowed to fail currently). - GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_NORETRY - overrides the default allocator behavior and all allocation requests fail early rather than cause disruptive reclaim (one round of reclaim in this implementation). The OOM killer is not invoked. - GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL - overrides the default allocator behavior and all allocation requests try really hard. The request will fail if the reclaim cannot make any progress. The OOM killer won't be triggered. - GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_NOFAIL - overrides the default allocator behavior and all allocation requests will loop endlessly until they succeed. This might be really dangerous especially for larger orders. Existing users of __GFP_REPEAT are changed to __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL because they already had their semantic. No new users are added. __alloc_pages_slowpath is changed to bail out for __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL if there is no progress and we have already passed the OOM point. This means that all the reclaim opportunities have been exhausted except the most disruptive one (the OOM killer) and a user defined fallback behavior is more sensible than keep retrying in the page allocator.

2017-05-16tcp: internal implementation for pacingEric Dumazet1-0/+8
BBR congestion control depends on pacing, and pacing is currently handled by sch_fq packet scheduler for performance reasons, and also because implemening pacing with FQ was convenient to truly avoid bursts. However there are many cases where this packet scheduler constraint is not practical. - Many linux hosts are not focusing on handling thousands of TCP flows in the most efficient way. - Some routers use fq_codel or other AQM, but still would like to use BBR for the few TCP flows they initiate/terminate. This patch implements an automatic fallback to internal pacing. Pacing is requested either by BBR or use of SO_MAX_PACING_RATE option. If sch_fq happens to be in the egress path, pacing is delegated to the qdisc, otherwise pacing is done by TCP itself. One advantage of pacing from TCP stack is to get more precise rtt estimations, and less work done from TX completion, since TCP Small queue limits are not generally hit. Setups with single TX queue but many cpus might even benefit from this. Note that unlike sch_fq, we do not take into account header sizes. Taking care of these headers would add additional complexity for no practical differences in behavior. Some performance numbers using 800 TCP_STREAM flows rate limited to ~48 Mbit per second on 40Gbit NIC.

2017-05-09net: use kvmalloc with __GFP_REPEAT rather than open coded variantMichal Hocko1-11/+1
fq_alloc_node, alloc_netdev_mqs and netif_alloc* open code kmalloc with vmalloc fallback. Use the kvmalloc variant instead. Keep the __GFP_REPEAT flag based on explanation from Eric: "At the time, tests on the hardware I had in my labs showed that vmalloc() could deliver pages spread all over the memory and that was a small penalty (once memory is fragmented enough, not at boot time)" The way how the code is constructed means, however, that we prefer to go and hit the OOM killer before we fall back to the vmalloc for requests <=32kB (with 4kB pages) in the current code. This is rather disruptive for something that can be achived with the fallback. On the other hand __GFP_REPEAT doesn't have any useful semantic for these requests. So the effect of this patch is that requests which fit into 32kB will fall back to vmalloc easier now.

2016-09-23net_sched: sch_fq: account for schedule/timers driftsEric Dumazet1-3/+18
It looks like the following patch can make FQ very precise, even in VM or stressed hosts. It matters at high pacing rates. We take into account the difference between the time that was programmed when last packet was sent, and current time (a drift of tens of usecs is often observed) Add an EWMA of the unthrottle latency to help diagnostics. This latency is the difference between current time and oldest packet in delayed RB-tree. This accounts for the high resolution timer latency, but can be different under stress, as fq_check_throttled() can be opportunistically be called from a dequeue() called after an enqueue() for a different flow.

2016-09-21net_sched: sch_fq: add low_rate_threshold parameterEric Dumazet1-3/+19
This commit adds to the fq module a low_rate_threshold parameter to insert a delay after all packets if the socket requests a pacing rate below the threshold. This helps achieve more precise control of the sending rate with low-rate paths, especially policers. The basic issue is that if a congestion control module detects a policer at a certain rate, it may want fq to be able to shape to that policed rate. That way the sender can avoid policer drops by having the packets arrive at the policer at or just under the policed rate. The default threshold of 550Kbps was chosen analytically so that for policers or links at 500Kbps or 512Kbps fq would very likely invoke this mechanism, even if the pacing rate was briefly slightly above the available bandwidth. This value was then empirically validated with two years of production testing on YouTube video servers.

2016-06-25net_sched: drop packets after root qdisc lock is releasedEric Dumazet1-3/+4
Qdisc performance suffers when packets are dropped at enqueue() time because drops (kfree_skb()) are done while qdisc lock is held, delaying a dequeue() draining the queue. Nominal throughput can be reduced by 50 % when this happens, at a time we would like the dequeue() to proceed as fast as possible. Even FQ is vulnerable to this problem, while one of FQ goals was to provide some flow isolation. This patch adds a 'struct sk_buff **to_free' parameter to all qdisc->enqueue(), and in qdisc_drop() helper. I measured a performance increase of up to 12 %, but this patch is a prereq so that future batches in enqueue() can fly.

I already removed it for sch_fq in commit f2600cf02b5b ("net: sched: avoid costly atomic operation in fq_dequeue()") and so far nobody complained. When one ore more packets are stuck in one or more throttled HTB class, a htb dequeue() performs two atomic operations to clear/set __QDISC_STATE_THROTTLED bit, while root qdisc lock is held. Removing this pair of atomic operations bring me a 8 % performance increase on 200 TCP_RR tests, in presence of throttled classes.

2015-02-05pkt_sched: fq: better control of DDOS trafficEric Dumazet1-2/+17
FQ has a fast path for skb attached to a socket, as it does not have to compute a flow hash. But for other packets, FQ being non stochastic means that hosts exposed to random Internet traffic can allocate million of flows structure (104 bytes each) pretty easily. Not only host can OOM, but lookup in RB trees can take too much cpu and memory resources. This patch adds a new attribute, orphan_mask, that is adding possibility of having a stochastic hash for orphaned skb. Its default value is 1024 slots, to mimic SFQ behavior. Note: This does not apply to locally generated TCP traffic, and no locally generated traffic will share a flow structure with another perfect or stochastic flow. This patch also handles the specific case of SYNACK messages: They are attached to the listener socket, and therefore all map to a single hash bucket. If listener have set SO_MAX_PACING_RATE, hoping to have new accepted socket inherit this rate, SYNACK might be paced and even dropped. This is very similar to an internal patch Google have used more than one year. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2015-02-05tcp: do not pace pure ack packetsEric Dumazet1-2/+8
When we added pacing to TCP, we decided to let sch_fq take care of actual pacing. All TCP had to do was to compute sk->pacing_rate using simple formula: sk->pacing_rate = 2 * cwnd * mss / rtt It works well for senders (bulk flows), but not very well for receivers or even RPC : cwnd on the receiver can be less than 10, rtt can be around 100ms, so we can end up pacing ACK packets, slowing down the sender. Really, only the sender should pace, according to its own logic. Instead of adding a new bit in skb, or call yet another flow dissection, we tweak skb->truesize to a small value (2), and we instruct sch_fq to use new helper and not pace pure ack. Note this also helps TCP small queue, as ack packets present in qdisc/NIC do not prevent sending a data packet (RPC workload) This helps to reduce tx completion overhead, ack packets can use regular sock_wfree() instead of tcp_wfree() which is a bit more expensive. This has no impact in the case packets are sent to loopback interface, as we do not coalesce ack packets (were we would detect skb->truesize lie) In case netem (with a delay) is used, skb_orphan_partial() also sets skb->truesize to 1.

FQ/pacing has a clamp of delay of 125 ms, to avoid some possible harm. It turns out this delay is too small to allow pacing low rates : Some ISP setup very aggressive policers as low as 16kbit. Now TCP stack has spurious rtx prevention, it seems safe to increase this fixed parameter, without adding a qdisc attribute.

2014-10-06net: sched: avoid costly atomic operation in fq_dequeue()Eric Dumazet1-4/+2
Standard qdisc API to setup a timer implies an atomic operation on every packet dequeue : qdisc_unthrottled() It turns out this is not really needed for FQ, as FQ has no concept of global qdisc throttling, being a qdisc handling many different flows, some of them can be throttled, while others are not. Fix is straightforward : add a 'bool throttle' to qdisc_watchdog_schedule_ns(), and remove calls to qdisc_unthrottled() in sch_fq.

2013-11-16pkt_sched: fq: fix pacing for small framesEric Dumazet1-4/+18
For performance reasons, sch_fq tried hard to not setup timers for every sent packet, using a quantum based heuristic : A delay is setup only if the flow exhausted its credit. Problem is that application limited flows can refill their credit for every queued packet, and they can evade pacing. This problem can also be triggered when TCP flows use small MSS values, as TSO auto sizing builds packets that are smaller than the default fq quantum (3028 bytes) This patch adds a 40 ms delay to guard flow credit refill.

Initial sch_fq implementation copied code from pfifo_fast to classify a packet as a high prio packet. This clashes with setups using PRIO with say 7 bands, as one of the band could be incorrectly (mis)classified by FQ. Packets would be queued in the 'internal' queue, and no pacing ever happen for this special queue.

2013-10-01pkt_sched: fq: rate limiting improvementsEric Dumazet1-19/+26
FQ rate limiting suffers from two problems, reported by Steinar : 1) FQ enforces a delay when flow quantum is exhausted in order to reduce cpu overhead. But if packets are small, current delay computation is slightly wrong, and observed rates can be too high. Steinar had this problem because he disabled TSO and GSO, and default FQ quantum is 2*1514. (Of course, I wish recent TSO auto sizing changes will help to not having to disable TSO in the first place) 2) maxrate was not used for forwarded flows (skbs not attached to a socket) Tested: tc qdisc add dev eth0 root est 1sec 4sec fq maxrate 8Mbit netperf -H lpq84 -l 1000 & sleep 10 ; tc -s qdisc show dev eth0 qdisc fq 8003: root refcnt 32 limit 10000p flow_limit 100p buckets 1024 quantum 3028 initial_quantum 15140 maxrate 8000Kbit Sent 16819357 bytes 11258 pkt (dropped 0, overlimits 0 requeues 0) rate 7831Kbit 653pps backlog 7570b 5p requeues 0 44 flows (43 inactive, 1 throttled), next packet delay 2977352 ns 0 gc, 0 highprio, 5545 throttled lpq83:~# tcpdump -p -i eth0 host lpq84 -c 12 09:02:52.079484 IP lpq83 > lpq84: . 1389536928:1389538376(1448) ack 3808678021 win 457 <nop,nop,timestamp 961812 572609068> 09:02:52.079499 IP lpq83 > lpq84: . 1448:2896(1448) ack 1 win 457 <nop,nop,timestamp 961812 572609068> 09:02:52.079906 IP lpq84 > lpq83: . ack 2896 win 16384 <nop,nop,timestamp 572609080 961812> 09:02:52.082568 IP lpq83 > lpq84: . 2896:4344(1448) ack 1 win 457 <nop,nop,timestamp 961815 572609071> 09:02:52.082581 IP lpq83 > lpq84: . 4344:5792(1448) ack 1 win 457 <nop,nop,timestamp 961815 572609071> 09:02:52.083017 IP lpq84 > lpq83: . ack 5792 win 16384 <nop,nop,timestamp 572609083 961815> 09:02:52.085678 IP lpq83 > lpq84: . 5792:7240(1448) ack 1 win 457 <nop,nop,timestamp 961818 572609074> 09:02:52.085693 IP lpq83 > lpq84: . 7240:8688(1448) ack 1 win 457 <nop,nop,timestamp 961818 572609074> 09:02:52.086117 IP lpq84 > lpq83: . ack 8688 win 16384 <nop,nop,timestamp 572609086 961818> 09:02:52.088792 IP lpq83 > lpq84: . 8688:10136(1448) ack 1 win 457 <nop,nop,timestamp 961821 572609077> 09:02:52.088806 IP lpq83 > lpq84: . 10136:11584(1448) ack 1 win 457 <nop,nop,timestamp 961821 572609077> 09:02:52.089217 IP lpq84 > lpq83: . ack 11584 win 16384 <nop,nop,timestamp 572609090 961821> Reported-by: Steinar H.

- Uses perfect flow match (not stochastic hash like SFQ/FQ_codel) - Uses the new_flow/old_flow separation from FQ_codel - New flows get an initial credit allowing IW10 without added delay. - Special FIFO queue for high prio packets (no need for PRIO + FQ) - Uses a hash table of RB trees to locate the flows at enqueue() time - Smart on demand gc (at enqueue() time, RB tree lookup evicts old unused flows) - Dynamic memory allocations. - Designed to allow millions of concurrent flows per Qdisc. - Small memory footprint : ~8K per Qdisc, and 104 bytes per flow. - Single high resolution timer for throttled flows (if any). - One RB tree to link throttled flows. - Ability to have a max rate per flow. We might add a socket option to add per socket limitation. Attempts have been made to add TCP pacing in TCP stack, but this seems to add complex code to an already complex stack. TCP pacing is welcomed for flows having idle times, as the cwnd permits TCP stack to queue a possibly large number of packets. This removes the 'slow start after idle' choice, hitting badly large BDP flows, and applications delivering chunks of data as video streams. Nicely spaced packets : Here interface is 10Gbit, but flow bottleneck is ~20Mbit cwin is big, yet FQ avoids the typical bursts generated by TCP (as in netperf TCP_RR -- -r 100000,100000) 15:01:23.545279 IP A > B: . 78193:81089(2896) ack 65248 win 3125 <nop,nop,timestamp 1115 11597805> 15:01:23.545394 IP B > A: . ack 81089 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597985 1115> 15:01:23.546488 IP A > B: . 81089:83985(2896) ack 65248 win 3125 <nop,nop,timestamp 1115 11597805> 15:01:23.546565 IP B > A: . ack 83985 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597986 1115> 15:01:23.547713 IP A > B: . 83985:86881(2896) ack 65248 win 3125 <nop,nop,timestamp 1115 11597805> 15:01:23.547778 IP B > A: . ack 86881 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597987 1115> 15:01:23.548911 IP A > B: . 86881:89777(2896) ack 65248 win 3125 <nop,nop,timestamp 1115 11597805> 15:01:23.548949 IP B > A: . ack 89777 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597988 1115> 15:01:23.550116 IP A > B: . 89777:92673(2896) ack 65248 win 3125 <nop,nop,timestamp 1115 11597805> 15:01:23.550182 IP B > A: . ack 92673 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597989 1115> 15:01:23.551333 IP A > B: . 92673:95569(2896) ack 65248 win 3125 <nop,nop,timestamp 1115 11597805> 15:01:23.551406 IP B > A: . ack 95569 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597991 1115> 15:01:23.552539 IP A > B: . 95569:98465(2896) ack 65248 win 3125 <nop,nop,timestamp 1115 11597805> 15:01:23.552576 IP B > A: . ack 98465 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597992 1115> 15:01:23.553756 IP A > B: . 98465:99913(1448) ack 65248 win 3125 <nop,nop,timestamp 1115 11597805> 15:01:23.554138 IP A > B: P 99913:100001(88) ack 65248 win 3125 <nop,nop,timestamp 1115 11597805> 15:01:23.554204 IP B > A: . ack 100001 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597993 1115> 15:01:23.554234 IP B > A: . 65248:68144(2896) ack 100001 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597993 1115> 15:01:23.555620 IP B > A: . 68144:71040(2896) ack 100001 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597993 1115> 15:01:23.557005 IP B > A: . 71040:73936(2896) ack 100001 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597993 1115> 15:01:23.558390 IP B > A: . 73936:76832(2896) ack 100001 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597993 1115> 15:01:23.559773 IP B > A: . 76832:79728(2896) ack 100001 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597993 1115> 15:01:23.561158 IP B > A: . 79728:82624(2896) ack 100001 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597994 1115> 15:01:23.562543 IP B > A: . 82624:85520(2896) ack 100001 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597994 1115> 15:01:23.563928 IP B > A: . 85520:88416(2896) ack 100001 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597994 1115> 15:01:23.565313 IP B > A: . 88416:91312(2896) ack 100001 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597994 1115> 15:01:23.566698 IP B > A: . 91312:94208(2896) ack 100001 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597994 1115> 15:01:23.568083 IP B > A: . 94208:97104(2896) ack 100001 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597994 1115> 15:01:23.569467 IP B > A: . 97104:100000(2896) ack 100001 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597994 1115> 15:01:23.570852 IP B > A: . 100000:102896(2896) ack 100001 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597994 1115> 15:01:23.572237 IP B > A: . 102896:105792(2896) ack 100001 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597994 1115> 15:01:23.573639 IP B > A: . 105792:108688(2896) ack 100001 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597994 1115> 15:01:23.575024 IP B > A: . 108688:111584(2896) ack 100001 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597994 1115> 15:01:23.576408 IP B > A: . 111584:114480(2896) ack 100001 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597994 1115> 15:01:23.577793 IP B > A: . 114480:117376(2896) ack 100001 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597994 1115> TCP timestamps show that most packets from B were queued in the same ms timeframe (TSval 1159799{3,4}), but FQ managed to send them right in time to avoid a big burst.
