[HTB] htb_dequeue_tree assertion (kernel 2.4.21-ac4)
Hello, I think the BUG_TRAP() in the htb_dequeue_tree() is wrong. First it checks if the class pointer "cl" is NULL, which is obviously right. But I do not understand why we also check whenever the queue length of the leaf queue is zero "cl->un.leaf.q->q.qlen". I would have put that in the expression of the "if" statements that comes afterwards. A queue length of 0 is not an error condition that should be reported (please, correct me if I misunderstood the code). I can pretty much reliably trigger the assertion with a well utilized gigabit ethernet link when I flush and reactivate the TC configuration every 3 seconds. It looks like the error occurs only when confiuration changes are made. I will some some more tests on monday when I am back at the office to verify that the queue length is (not) the problem. bye, wilfried static struct sk_buff * htb_dequeue_tree(struct htb_sched *q,int prio,int level) { struct sk_buff *skb = NULL; //struct htb_sched *q = (struct htb_sched *)sch->data; struct htb_class *cl,*start; /* look initial class up in the row */ start = cl = htb_lookup_leaf (q->row[level]+prio,prio,q->ptr[level]+prio); do { BUG_TRAP(cl && cl->un.leaf.q->q.qlen); if (!cl) return NULL; HTB_DBG(4,1,"htb_deq_tr prio=%d lev=%d cl=%X defic=%d\n", prio,level,cl->classid,cl->un.leaf.deficit[level]); if (likely((skb = cl->un.leaf.q->dequeue(cl->un.leaf.q)) != NULL)) break; if (!cl->warned) { _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
If you read comment above htb_dequeue_tree, it should be called only when it is sure that there are packets inside of the level/prio. It is known by other HTB mechanism (per-level activity lists). Thus the bugtrap is to catch case where class was inserted into activity list because it had packets in its sub-qdisc but when we actually decide to dequeue - it has no packet. It is weird - can qdisc lose packets even when dequeue was not called ?? ------------------------------- Martin Devera aka devik Linux kernel QoS/HTB maintainer http://luxik.cdi.cz/~devik/ On Fri, 18 Jul 2003, Wilfried Weissmann wrote:> Hello, > > I think the BUG_TRAP() in the htb_dequeue_tree() is wrong.

Now it is neccessary to find scenario where it does happen so that it is fixed in right way. I have not much time these days to test these cases but your informations would lead to following hypothesis: Classe''s child qdisc is replaced while old one still has nonzero queue. New empty qdisc is grafted under class instead. What about attached patch (it is against my latest version so you can see offset warnings) ? devik

In this case every queue from the queue that was changed to the root has to be notified about the change. (The setup we want to use involves such a configuration.) Maybe it is better to just deactivate a class when a dequeue from its leave failes due to a zero queue length. If you are concerned about performance then an audit process could be implemented. For example to check one leave queue every 64 packets +/- initial random offset to create some entropy similar to the maximum mount count in the ext2 filesystem. Maybe there are better ways to do this. I am not so familiar with the code. I will make some tests with the patch tomorrow.

I also got the following log entry: HTB: dequeue bug (8,270045,270045), report it please ! Maybe this massages is just a side effect of the bug.

I think the kernel crashes in "while ((*sp->pptr)->rb_left)". Catching that case is easy. But we must not forget to leave the do{}while() loop in htb_dequeue_tree() when an empty tree is detected.

Patrick, : I''m having difficulty finding any on-line documentation about HTB that : is both complete and authoritative. I have two questions: What search engine do you use? http://www.google.com/search?num=20&hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&safe=off&q=htb+linux&btnG=Google+Search The first two hits from google are the HTB home page, provided courtesy of Martin ''devik'' Devera. http://luxik.cdi.cz/~devik/qos/htb/ : 1) Is there any such documentation? What shortcoming do you find at Martin Devera''s page? http://luxik.cdi.cz/~devik/qos/htb/manual/userg.htm : 2) If there isn''t, then I presume I will need to read the code. It depends on the nature of your question is. You will find a great deal of knowledge in this mailing list about HTB, so if you have a specific and/or particular question, you should ask it here. I would suggest reading two other sources about HTB before asking here: http://www.docum.org/ # Stef Coene''s site http://mailman.ds9a.nl/pipermail/lartc/ # LARTC mailing list archive : Can you give me pointers to where I can get the source? Source is available here: http://luxik.cdi.cz/~devik/qos/htb/v3/htb3.6-020525.tgz After you have consumed some of the above documentation, your questions should be answered. -Martin -- Martin A.
