Linux Virtualization - Sep 2018 - [PATCH net-next 10/11] tap: accept an array of XDP buffs through sendmsg()

Hi all:

This series tries to batch submitting packets to underlayer socket
through msg_control during sendmsg(). This is done by:

1) Doing userspace copy inside vhost_net
2) Build XDP buff
3) Batch at most 64 (VHOST_NET_BATCH) XDP buffs and submit them once
   through msg_control during sendmsg().
4) Underlayer sockets can use XDP buffs directly when XDP is enalbed,
   or build skb based on XDP buff.

For the packet that can not be built easily with XDP or for the case
that batch submission is hard (e.g sndbuf is limited). We will go for
the previous slow path, passing iov iterator to underlayer socket
through sendmsg() once per packet.

This can help to improve cache utilization and avoid lots of indirect
calls with sendmsg(). It can also co-operate with the batching support
of the underlayer sockets (e.g the case of XDP redirection through
maps).

Testpmd(txonly) in guest shows obvious improvements:

Test                /+pps%
XDP_DROP on TAP     /+44.8%
XDP_REDIRECT on TAP /+29%
macvtap (skb)       /+26%

Netperf TCP_STREAM TX from guest shows obvious improvements on small
packet:

This patch introduces a new sock flag - SOCK_XDP. This will be used
for notifying the upper layer that XDP program is attached on the
lower socket, and requires for extra headroom.

TUN will be the first user.

This patch move the bh enabling a little bit earlier, this will be

There's no need to duplicate page get logic in each action. So this
patch tries to get page and calculate the offset before processing XDP
actions, and undo them when meet errors (we don't care the performance
on errors). This will be used for factoring out XDP logic.

If we're sure not to go native XDP, there's no need for several things
like bh and rcu stuffs.

This patch introduces to a new tun/tap specific msg_control:

#define TUN_MSG_UBUF 1
#define TUN_MSG_PTR  2
struct tun_msg_ctl {
       int type;
       void *ptr;
};

This allows us to pass different kinds of msg_control through
sendmsg(). The first supported type is ubuf (TUN_MSG_UBUF) which will
be used by the existed vhost_net zerocopy code. The second is XDP
buff, which allows vhost_net to pass XDP buff to TUN. This could be
used to implement accepting an array of XDP buffs from vhost_net in
the following patches.

This patch implement TUN_MSG_PTR msg_control type. This type allows
the caller to pass an array of XDP buffs to tuntap through ptr field
of the tun_msg_control. If an XDP program is attached, tuntap can run
XDP program directly. If not, tuntap will build skb and do a fast
receiving since part of the work has been done by vhost_net.

This will avoid lots of indirect calls thus improves the icache
utilization and allows to do XDP batched flushing when doing XDP
redirection.

2.17.1

This patch implements XDP batching for vhost_net. The idea is first to
try to do userspace copy and build XDP buff directly in vhost. Instead
of submitting the packet immediately, vhost_net will batch them in an
array and submit every 64 (VHOST_NET_BATCH) packets to the under layer
sockets through msg_control of sendmsg().

When XDP is enabled on the TUN/TAP, TUN/TAP can process XDP inside a
loop without caring GUP thus it can do batch map flushing. When XDP is
not enabled or not supported, the underlayer socket need to build skb
and pass it to network core. The batched packet submission allows us
to do batching like netif_receive_skb_list() in the future.

This saves lots of indirect calls for better cache utilization. For
the case that we can't so batching e.g when sndbuf is limited or
packet size is too large, we will go for usual one packet per
sendmsg() way.

Doing testpmd on various setups gives us:

Test                /+pps%
XDP_DROP on TAP     /+44.8%
XDP_REDIRECT on TAP /+29%
macvtap (skb)       /+26%

Netperf tests shows obvious improvements for small packet transmission:

what if an xdp program is attached while this processing
is going on? Flag value will be wrong - is this safe
and why? Pls add a comment.

Looks like TUN_MSG_PTR should be pushed out to a follow-up patch?

In fact vhost is the 1st user, right? So this can be
pushed out to become patch 10/11.

This adds an atomic op on XDP_DROP which is a data path

So goto out will skip put_page, and we did
do get_page above. Seems wrong. You should
goto err_skb or something like this.

Out here isn't an error at all, is it?  You should not mix return and
error handling IMHO.

But this is spaghetti code. Please just put common

put here because caller does get_page :( Not pretty.
I'd move this out to the caller.

How about combining err and act? err is < 0 XDP_PASS is > 0.
No need for pointers then.

At this point the switch statement which used to contain all XDP things
seems to be gone completely. Just rewrite with a bunch of if statements
and all xdp handling spread out to where it makes sense?

indirect calls? Because if it's flushing we can gain
most of it easily by adding an analog of xmit_more.
