Optimize the snmp stat aggregation for large cpus
While creating 1000 containers, perf is showing lot of time spent in
snmp_fold_field on a large cpu system.
The current patch tries to improve by reordering the statistics gathering.
Please note that similar overhead was also reported while creating
veth pairs https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/3/19/556
Changes in V4:
- remove 'item' variable and use IPSTATS_MIB_MAX to avoid sparse
warning (Eric) also remove 'item' parameter (Joe)
- add missing memset of padding.
Changes in V3:
- use memset to initialize temp buffer in leaf function. (David)
- use memcpy to copy the buffer data to stat instead of unalign_pu (Joe)
- Move buffer definition to leaf function __snmp6_fill_stats64() (Eric)
-
Changes in V2:
- Allocate the stat calculation buffer in stack. (Eric)
Setup:
160 cpu (20 core) baremetal powerpc system with 1TB memory
1000 docker containers was created with command
docker run -itd ubuntu:15.04 /bin/bash in loop
observation:
Docker container creation linearly increased from around 1.6 sec to 7.5 sec
(at 1000 containers) perf data showed, creating veth interfaces resulting in
the below code path was taking more time.
rtnl_fill_ifinfo
-> inet6_fill_link_af
-> inet6_fill_ifla6_attrs
-> snmp_fold_field
proposed idea:
currently __snmp6_fill_stats64 calls snmp_fold_field that walks
through per cpu data to of an item (iteratively for around 36 items).
The patch tries to aggregate the statistics by going through
all the items of each cpu sequentially which is reducing cache
misses.
Performance of docker creation improved by around more than 2x
after the patch.

tunnels: fix incorrect IPv4/v6 headers interpretation
With tunneling, it is currently possible to get an IPv6 header and interpret
it as an IPv4 header, or to interpret an IPv6 address as an IPv4 address
(and vice versa). This leads to things like sending packets to incorrect
address, IPv6 flow label being interpreted as IP packet length, etc.
Fix several places where this can happen.
Most of this is net-next only. The third patch affects net, too, but it
doesn't seem there's anything in user space that sets the attribute at all
currently, thus net-next is fine.

By default (subject to the sysctl settings), IPv6 sockets listen also for
IPv4 traffic. Vxlan is not prepared for that and expects IPv6 header in
packets received through an IPv6 socket.
In addition, it's currently not possible to have both IPv4 and IPv6 vxlan
tunnel on the same port (unless bindv6only sysctl is enabled), as it's not
possible to create and bind both IPv4 and IPv6 vxlan interfaces and there's
no way to specify both IPv4 and IPv6 remote/group IP addresses.
Set IPV6_V6ONLY on vxlan sockets to fix both of these issues. This is not
done globally in udp_tunnel, as l2tp and tipc seems to work okay when
receiving IPv4 packets on IPv6 socket and people may rely on this behavior.
The other tunnels (geneve and fou) do not support IPv6.

fou does not really support IPv6 encapsulation. After an UDP socket is
created in fou_create, the encap_rcv callback is set either to fou_udp_recv
or to gue_udp_recv. Both of those unconditionally assume that the received
packet has an IPv4 header and access the data at network_header as it was an
IPv4 header. This leads to IPv6 flow label being interpreted as IP packet
length, etc.
Disallow fou tunnel to be configured as IPv6 until real IPv6 support is
added to fou.

This was causing probe to fail on later functions in

This change allows the driver to load with fewer VIs, down to a
minimum of 2. A warning will be printed saying that RSS
requirements were not met, possibly affecting performance.
