* net: dcb: Add priority-to-DSCP map gettersPetr Machata2018-07-271-0/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On ingress, a network device such as a switch assigns to packets priority based on various criteria. Common options include interpreting PCP and DSCP fields according to user configuration. When a packet egresses the switch, a reverse process may rewrite PCP and/or DSCP values according to packet priority. The following three functions support a) obtaining a DSCP-to-priority map or vice versa, and b) finding default-priority entries in APP database. The DCB subsystem supports for APP entries a very generous M:N mapping between priorities and protocol identifiers. Understandably, several (say) DSCP values can map to the same priority. But this asymmetry holds the other way around as well--one priority can map to several DSCP values. For this reason, the following functions operate in terms of bitmaps, with ones in positions that match some APP entry. - dcb_ieee_getapp_dscp_prio_mask_map() to compute for a given netdevice a map of DSCP-to-priority-mask, which gives for each DSCP value a bitmap of priorities related to that DSCP value by APP, along the lines of dcb_ieee_getapp_mask(). - dcb_ieee_getapp_prio_dscp_mask_map() similarly to compute for a given netdevice a map from priorities to a bitmap of DSCPs. - dcb_ieee_getapp_default_prio_mask() which finds all default-priority rules for a given port in APP database, and returns a mask of priorities allowed by these default-priority rules.

* net/dcb: Add dcbnl buffer attributeHuy Nguyen2018-05-241-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In this patch, we add dcbnl buffer attribute to allow user change the NIC's buffer configuration such as priority to buffer mapping and buffer size of individual buffer. This attribute combined with pfc attribute allows advanced user to fine tune the qos setting for specific priority queue. For example, user can give dedicated buffer for one or more priorities or user can give large buffer to certain priorities. The dcb buffer configuration will be controlled by lldptool. lldptool -T -i eth2 -V BUFFER prio 0,2,5,7,1,2,3,6 maps priorities 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7 to receive buffer 0,2,5,7,1,2,3,6 lldptool -T -i eth2 -V BUFFER size 87296,87296,0,87296,0,0,0,0 sets receive buffer size for buffer 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7 respectively After discussion on mailing list with Jakub, Jiri, Ido and John, we agreed to choose dcbnl over devlink interface since this feature is intended to set port attributes which are governed by the netdev instance of that port, where devlink API is more suitable for global ASIC configurations. We present an use case scenario where dcbnl buffer attribute configured by advance user helps reduce the latency of messages of different sizes. Scenarios description: On ConnectX-5, we run latency sensitive traffic with small/medium message sizes ranging from 64B to 256KB and bandwidth sensitive traffic with large messages sizes 512KB and 1MB. We group small, medium, and large message sizes to their own pfc enables priorities as follow. Priorities 1 & 2 (64B, 256B and 1KB) Priorities 3 & 4 (4KB, 8KB, 16KB, 64KB, 128KB and 256KB) Priorities 5 & 6 (512KB and 1MB) By default, ConnectX-5 maps all pfc enabled priorities to a single lossless fixed buffer size of 50% of total available buffer space. The other 50% is assigned to lossy buffer. Using dcbnl buffer attribute, we create three equal size lossless buffers. Each buffer has 25% of total available buffer space. Thus, the lossy buffer size reduces to 25%. Priority to lossless buffer mappings are set as follow. Priorities 1 & 2 on lossless buffer #1 Priorities 3 & 4 on lossless buffer #2 Priorities 5 & 6 on lossless buffer #3 We observe improvements in latency for small and medium message sizes as follows. Please note that the large message sizes bandwidth performance is reduced but the total bandwidth remains the same. 256B message size (42 % latency reduction) 4K message size (21% latency reduction) 64K message size (16% latency reduction) CC: Ido Schimmel <idosch@idosch.org> CC: Jakub Kicinski <jakub.kicinski@netronome.com> CC: Jiri Pirko <jiri@resnulli.us> CC: Or Gerlitz <gerlitz.or@gmail.com> CC: Parav Pandit <parav@mellanox.com> CC: Aron Silverton <aron.silverton@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Huy Nguyen <huyn@mellanox.com> Reviewed-by: Parav Pandit <parav@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: Saeed Mahameed <saeedm@mellanox.com>

* dcb: Add dcb_ieee_getapp_mask() for drivers to query APP settingsJohn Fastabend2011-06-211-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With multiple APP entries per selector and protocol drivers or stacks may want to pick a specific value or stripe traffic across many priorities. Also if an APP entry in use is deleted the stack/driver may want to choose from the existing APP entries. To facilitate this and avoid having duplicate code to walk the APP ring provide a routine dcb_ieee_getapp_mask() to return a u8 bitmask of all priorities set for the specified selector and protocol.

* dcb: Add ieee_dcb_setapp() to be used for IEEE 802.1Qaz APP dataJohn Fastabend2011-06-211-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds a setapp routine for IEEE802.1Qaz encoded APP data types. The IEEE 802.1Qaz spec encodes the priority bits differently and allows for multiple APP data entries of the same selector and protocol. Trying to force these to use the same set routines was becoming tedious. Furthermore, userspace could probably enforce the correct semantics, but expecting drivers to do this seems error prone in the firmware case. For these reasons add ieee_dcb_setapp() that understands the IEEE 802.1Qaz encoded form. Signed-off-by: John Fastabend <john.r.fastabend@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* net: dcbnl, add multicast group for DCBJohn Fastabend2011-06-211-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that dcbnl is being used in many cases by more than a single agent it is beneficial to be notified when some entity either driver or user space has changed the DCB attributes. Today applications either end up polling the interface or relying on a user space database to maintain the DCB state and post events. Polling is a poor solution for obvious reasons. And relying on a user space database has its own downside. Namely it has created strange boot dependencies requiring the database be populated before any applications dependent on DCB attributes starts or the application goes into a polling loop. Populating the database requires negotiating link setting with the peer and can take anywhere from less than a second up to a few seconds depending on the switch implementation. Perhaps more importantly if another application or an embedded agent sets a DCB link attribute the database has no way of knowing other than polling the kernel. This prevents applications from responding quickly to changes in link events which at least in the FCoE case and probably any other protocols expecting a lossless link may result in IO errors. By adding a multicast group for DCB we have clean way to disseminate kernel DCB link attributes up to user space. Avoiding the need for user space to maintain a coherant database and disperse events that potentially do not reflect the current link state.
