Vijay Subramanian c8753d55af net: Cleanup skb cloning by adding SKB_FCLONE_FREE
SKB_FCLONE_UNAVAILABLE has overloaded meaning depending on type of skb.
1: If skb is allocated from head_cache, it indicates fclone is not available.
2: If skb is a companion fclone skb (allocated from fclone_cache), it indicates
it is available to be used.

To avoid confusion for case 2 above, this patch  replaces
SKB_FCLONE_UNAVAILABLE with SKB_FCLONE_FREE where appropriate. For fclone
companion skbs, this indicates it is free for use.

SKB_FCLONE_UNAVAILABLE will now simply indicate skb is from head_cache and
cannot / will not have a companion fclone.

Eric Dumazet 55a93b3ea7 qdisc: validate skb without holding lock
Validation of skb can be pretty expensive :

GSO segmentation and/or checksum computations.

We can do this without holding qdisc lock, so that other cpus
can queue additional packets.

Trick is that requeued packets were already validated, so we carry
a boolean so that sch_direct_xmit() can validate a fresh skb list,
or directly use an old one.

Tested on 40Gb NIC (8 TX queues) and 200 concurrent flows, 48 threads
host.

Turning TSO on or off had no effect on throughput, only few more cpu
cycles. Lock contention on qdisc lock disappeared.

Same if disabling TX checksum offload.

Alexei Starovoitov 38b2cf2982 net: pktgen: packet bursting via skb->xmit_more
This patch demonstrates the effect of delaying update of HW tailptr.
(based on earlier patch by Jesper)

burst=1 is the default. It sends one packet with xmit_more=false
burst=2 sends one packet with xmit_more=true and
        2nd copy of the same packet with xmit_more=false
burst=3 sends two copies of the same packet with xmit_more=true and
        3rd copy with xmit_more=false

Performance with ixgbe (usec 30):
burst=1  tx:9.2 Mpps
burst=2  tx:13.5 Mpps
burst=3  tx:14.5 Mpps full 10G line rate

Eric Dumazet ce1a4ea3f1 net: avoid one atomic operation in skb_clone()
Fast clone cloning can actually avoid an atomic_inc(), if we
guarantee prior clone_ref value is 1.

This requires a change kfree_skbmem(), to perform the
atomic_dec_and_test() on clone_ref before setting fclone to
SKB_FCLONE_UNAVAILABLE.

John Fastabend 6401585366 net: sched: restrict use of qstats qlen
This removes the use of qstats->qlen variable from the classifiers
and makes it an explicit argument to gnet_stats_copy_queue().

The qlen represents the qdisc queue length and is packed into
the qstats at the last moment before passnig to user space. By
handling it explicitely we avoid, in the percpu stats case, having
to figure out which per_cpu variable to put it in.

It would probably be best to remove it from qstats completely
but qstats is a user space ABI and can't be broken. A future
patch could make an internal only qstats structure that would
avoid having to allocate an additional u32 variable on the
Qdisc struct. This would make the qstats struct 128bits instead
of 128+32.

John Fastabend 22e0f8b932 net: sched: make bstats per cpu and estimator RCU safe
In order to run qdisc's without locking statistics and estimators
need to be handled correctly.

To resolve bstats make the statistics per cpu. And because this is
only needed for qdiscs that are running without locks which is not
the case for most qdiscs in the near future only create percpu
stats when qdiscs set the TCQ_F_CPUSTATS flag.

Next because estimators use the bstats to calculate packets per
second and bytes per second the estimator code paths are updated
to use the per cpu statistics.

Eric Dumazet 73d3fe6d1c gro: fix aggregation for skb using frag_list
In commit 8a29111c7c ("net: gro: allow to build full sized skb")
I added a regression for linear skb that traditionally force GRO
to use the frag_list fallback.

Erez Shitrit found that at most two segments were aggregated and
the "if (skb_gro_len(p) != pinfo->gso_size)" test was failing.

This is because pinfo at this spot still points to the last skb in the
chain, instead of the first one, where we find the correct gso_size
information.

Eric Dumazet b193722731 net: reorganize sk_buff for faster __copy_skb_header()
With proliferation of bit fields in sk_buff, __copy_skb_header() became
quite expensive, showing as the most expensive function in a GSO
workload.

__copy_skb_header() performance is also critical for non GSO TCP
operations, as it is used from skb_clone()

This patch carefully moves all the fields that were not copied in a
separate zone : cloned, nohdr, fclone, peeked, head_frag, xmit_more

Then I moved all other fields and all other copied fields in a section
delimited by headers_start[0]/headers_end[0] section so that we
can use a single memcpy() call, inlined by compiler using long
word load/stores.

I also tried to make all copies in the natural orders of sk_buff,
to help hardware prefetching.

I made sure sk_buff size did not change.

LEROY Christophe 58e3cac561 net: optimise inet_proto_csum_replace4()
csum_partial() is a generic function which is not optimised for small fixed
length calculations, and its use requires to store "from" and "to" values in
memory while we already have them available in registers. This also has impact,
especially on RISC processors. In the same spirit as the change done by
Eric Dumazet on csum_replace2(), this patch rewrites inet_proto_csum_replace4()
taking into account RFC1624.

I spotted during a NATted tcp transfert that csum_partial() is one of top 5
consuming functions (around 8%), and the second user of csum_partial() is
inet_proto_csum_replace4().

Eric Dumazet f4a775d144 net: introduce __skb_header_release()
While profiling TCP stack, I noticed one useless atomic operation
in tcp_sendmsg(), caused by skb_header_release().

It turns out all current skb_header_release() users have a fresh skb,
that no other user can see, so we can avoid one atomic operation.

Introduce __skb_header_release() to clearly document this.

This gave me a 1.5 % improvement on TCP_RR workload.

Jason Wang cecda693a9 net: keep original skb which only needs header checking during software GSO
Commit ce93718fb7 ("net: Don't keep
around original SKB when we software segment GSO frames") frees the
original skb after software GSO even for dodgy gso skbs. This breaks
the stream throughput from untrusted sources, since only header
checking was done during software GSO instead of a true
segmentation. This patch fixes this by freeing the original gso skb
only when it was really segmented by software.

Fixes ce93718fb7 ("net: Don't keep
around original SKB when we software segment GSO frames.")
