* openvswitch: Fix kernel panic on ovs_flow_freeAndy Zhou2014-02-041-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | Both mega flow mask's reference counter and per flow table mask list should only be accessed when holding ovs_mutex() lock. However this is not true with ovs_flow_table_flush(). The patch fixes this bug. Reported-by: Joe Stringer <joestringer@nicira.com> Signed-off-by: Andy Zhou <azhou@nicira.com> Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com>
* openvswitch: Per cpu flow stats.Pravin B Shelar2014-01-061-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | With mega flow implementation ovs flow can be shared between multiple CPUs which makes stats updates highly contended operation. This patch uses per-CPU stats in cases where a flow is likely to be shared (if there is a wildcard in the 5-tuple and therefore likely to be spread by RSS). In other situations, it uses the current strategy, saving memory and allocation time. Signed-off-by: Pravin B Shelar <pshelar@nicira.com> Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com>
* openvswitch: Change ovs_flow_tbl_lookup_xx() APIsAndy Zhou2014-01-061-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | API changes only for code readability. No functional chnages. This patch removes the underscored version. Added a new API ovs_flow_tbl_lookup_stats() that returns the n_mask_hits.

* openvswitch: collect mega flow mask statsAndy Zhou2013-10-221-1/+3
| | | | | | | | Collect mega flow mask stats. ovs-dpctl show command can be used to display them for debugging and performance tuning. Signed-off-by: Andy Zhou <azhou@nicira.com> Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com>
* openvswitch: Simplify mega-flow APIs.Pravin B Shelar2013-10-041-9/+3
| | | | | | | | Hides mega-flow implementation in flow_table.c rather than datapath.c. Signed-off-by: Pravin B Shelar <pshelar@nicira.com> Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com>
* openvswitch: Move mega-flow list out of rehashing struct.Pravin B Shelar2013-10-041-19/+13
| | | | | | | | | ovs-flow rehash does not touch mega flow list. Following patch moves it dp struct datapath. Avoid one extra indirection for accessing mega-flow list head on every packet receive. Signed-off-by: Pravin B Shelar <pshelar@nicira.com> Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com>
* openvswitch: Restructure datapath.c and flow.cPravin B Shelar2013-10-031-0/+91
Over the time datapath.c and flow.c has became pretty large files. Following patch restructures functionality of component into three different components: flow.c: contains flow extract. flow_netlink.c: netlink flow api. flow_table.c: flow table api. This patch restructures code without changing logic. Signed-off-by: Pravin B Shelar <pshelar@nicira.com> Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com>
