rS293338: Fix VF handling of VLANs.
Summary

Bugzilla: https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=202983

This change aligns the FreeBSD driver behaviour closer to the Linux driver behaviour which is what I based the change off. In doing so it allows the driver to function on AWS instances that support Enhanced Networking.
http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/enhanced-networking.html

While I don't understand all the codebase of this Intel driver. The change seems quite straight forward.

  1. When disabling the RX queue for updates in function ixv_initialize_receive_units. Don't remove VLAN support.
  2. When running the function ixv_initialize_receive_units. It looks like we read the VFRXEDCTL twice which seems redundant given we have read it earlier in the function.
  3. When enabling the RX queues, we should also flag them as VLAN capable with 'IXGBE_RXDCTL_VME'.

The linux driver also makes use of this FLAG during the RX queue initialisation process.
ixgbevf_main.c in 3.1.1 -> https://sourceforge.net/projects/e1000/files/ixgbevf%20stable/3.1.1/

1936: 	/* allow any size packet since we can handle overflow */
1937: 	rxdctl &= ~IXGBE_RXDCTL_RLPML_EN;

But I'm not 100% sure on what it does. So am leaving this for a later change if it's needed. FreeBSd does seem to have this in the header files though but it never gets used from what I see. Anyway, I do wonder if this flag has anything to do with the automatic jumbo frame MTU detection and configuration as with this change alone the VF is setup and functions now, but does so with a default 1500 MTU instead of the 9001 which Linux systems do.

Test Plan

Have compile this and tested on an AWS M4 instance. Interface comes up now with DHCP successfully and I can connect.

Did some iperf3 tests to check how things perform. I believe without setting the MTU manually to 9001 first before testing, a MTU blackhole exists which ruins things. Not only does setting the MTU to 9001 manually fix the MTU blackhole reducing the retransmits(and UDP packet loss) but it also reduces CPU usage fairly significantly. It's a shame this isn't being set automatically.

# ifconfig ixv0 mtu 9001

I did three sets of tests. All tests run with m4.large instances in EC2 placement groups. Below is a summary

  1. FreeBSD iperf client with xn(1500 MTU) -> Linux iperf server ixgbevf(9001 MTU)
    • TCP: CPU ~35%, 439 Mbits/sec, 12567 Restransmits
    • UDP: CPU ~25%, 400 Mbits/sec, Jitter 0.134 ms, Loss 491375/1223339 (40%)
  2. FreeBSD iperf client with ixv(1500 MTU) -> Linux iperf server ixgbevf(9001 MTU)
    • TCP: CPU ~35%, 439 Mbits/sec, 13248 Restransmits
    • UDP: CPU ~19%, 400 Mbits/sec, Jitter 0.105 ms, Loss 573256/731477 (78%)
  3. FreeBSD iperf client with ixv(9001 MTU) -> Linux iperf server ixgbevf(9001 MTU)
    • TCP: CPU ~13%, 457 Mbits/sec, 2881 Restransmits
    • UDP: CPU ~10%, 400 Mbits/sec, Jitter 0.049 ms, Loss 0/731908 (0%)

It is clear '3.' is ideal. It uses less than half the CPU. Drastrically reduces loss. Has around half as much jitter.

Also while not conclusive a simple ping of 20 packets shows response times are around half.

1. round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 0.224/0.269/0.319/0.024 ms
2. Not tested
3. round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 0.098/0.145/0.177/0.019 ms

Having a look at my linux instance. I suspect it is not the Inytel driver setting the MTU to 9001 automatically. It looks to be dhclient.

On Linux dhclient seems to specifically have handling for the DHCP option for interface MTU.
http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2132#section-5.1

Looking at the linux /sbin/dhclient-script I see this

if [ "${reason}" = "BOUND" ] || [ "${reason}" = "REBOOT" ] ||
   [ ! "${old_ip_address}" = "${new_ip_address}" ] ||
   [ ! "${old_subnet_mask}" = "${new_subnet_mask}" ] ||
   [ ! "${old_network_number}" = "${new_network_number}" ] ||
   [ ! "${old_broadcast_address}" = "${new_broadcast_address}" ] ||
   [ ! "${old_routers}" = "${new_routers}" ] ||
   [ ! "${old_interface_mtu}" = "${new_interface_mtu}" ]; then
    ip -family inet addr add ${new_ip_address}/${new_prefix} broadcast ${new_broadcast_address} dev ${interface} >/dev/null 2>&1
    ip -family inet link set dev ${interface} up

    # The 576 MTU is only used for X.25 and dialup connections
    # where the admin wants low latency.  Such a low MTU can cause
    # problems with UDP traffic, among other things.  As such,
    # disallow MTUs from 576 and below by default, so that broken
    # MTUs are ignored, but higher stuff is allowed (1492, 1500, etc).
    if [ -n "${new_interface_mtu}" ] && [ ${new_interface_mtu} -gt 576 ]; then
        ip link set ${interface} mtu ${new_interface_mtu}

FreeBSD /sbin/dhclient-script does not seem to have handling for MTU so I suspect dhclient needs to be updated to handle this DHCP option.

Patrick or Pawel:

The current question is what dhclient and init scripts does with the MTU option. I don't see how its handled but I am ignorant in this space.

sbruno added a comment.Jan 5 2016, 5:12 PM

I'm guessing that we need to duplicate this behavior in /sbin/dhclient-script ?

Petz_nisshoko.net added a comment.Jan 5 2016, 9:56 PM

sbruno@

I'd prefer that the dhcp issue not hold this up. I'll try to get another change created for that or log a bugzilla report should it prove beyond me.

I did do some digging on dhclient yesterday though. Judging by the header in the source file for dhclient.c, FreeBSD pulled this code from OpenBSD a while back.

1 	/*      $OpenBSD: dhclient.c,v 1.63 2005/02/06 17:10:13 krw Exp $       */

This is well before they added support for this DHCP option.

per http://cvsweb.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/sbin/dhclient/dhclient.c

Add support for interface-mtu (option 26).

Original request+diff from matthew@

Note people seem to be doing different things with dhcp clients. For example, given the dhclient-script example I posted earlier from Amazon Linux, they seem to have this dhclient setting the mtu environment variables which it picks up and handles later in dhclient-script. This is different from OpenBSD which nuked dhclient-script over 3 years ago and now does everything from dhclient directly with ioctls

Nuke dhclient-script and dhclient.conf 'script' directive. Do all
interface and route configuration via ioctl's and routing sockets.

This will break configurations using local enhancements of
dhclient-script, which will now require alternate arrangements.

Committing early to allow time to identify and develop required
alternatives.

Several proddings by deraadt@.

NetBSD seems to be sync'ing fairly regularly with upstream sources and has two client implementations.

NetBSD dhclient: http://cvsweb.netbsd.org/bsdweb.cgi/src/external/bsd/dhcp/dist/client/#dirlist
NetBSD dhcpcd: http://cvsweb.netbsd.org/bsdweb.cgi/src/external/bsd/dhcpcd/dist/

Upstream Sources
dhclient: https://www.isc.org/downloads/dhcp/
dhcpcd: http://roy.marples.name/projects/dhcpcd/index

I guessing the best course of action would be for FreeBSD to also sync up more regularly with one or both of these sources as well in the base system. I can see that both of these packages are available via pkg. So perhaps I can test this out at some stage first.

Incase your interested sbruno@.

I tested out the 'isc-dhcp43-client-4.3.3'. I managed to get it semi working.

By editing the /usr/local/etc/dhclient.conf and adding 'interface-mtu' to the 'request' section on line 6. It does get the MTU as part of the DHCP offer and dhclient-script processes that to set the interface. I added some logging lines to dhclient-script so I can see when it gets an MTU value.

root@ip-172-31-10-39:/usr/local/sbin # ./dhclient -q
dhclient: MTU not provided
dhclient: MTU not provided

dhclient: New Broadcast Address (ixv0): 172.31.15.255
dhclient: New Routers: 172.31.0.1

The part that's not working though is that the package setup instruction don't seem valid.

Message from isc-dhcp43-client-4.3.3:
****  To setup dhclient, you may need to edit /etc/rc.conf to replace the
      base system dhclient as follows:

            dhclient_program="/usr/local/sbin/dhclient"
            dhclient_flags="-q"

      See dhclient(8), using the following command, for details about other
      possible options:

            MANPATH=/usr/local/man man 8 dhclient

Following those setup instructions ends up with an EC2 instance that doesn't work. I seems like the DHCP client runs. But I am assuming from reading other posts about a similar issue it runs a second time after devd is notified of the link-up event. I'm not sure if this second run of dhclient triggered by devd is killing the programmed interface and routes or if that LOR stack trace has something to do with it. Console output below.

I'm not sure what to do with this, do I need to disable the dhclient rc.d script? Disable dhclient in devd? Remove SYNCDHCP from rc.conf? Perhaps I'm wrong altogether and running it a second time isn't all that bad and the problem is with the LOR stack trace? (found potential worakround below, don;t know why though)

Looks like the answer is remove SYNCDHCP from rc.conf. The below is exactly what I had before in rc.conf but I just changed SYNCDHCP to DHCP for 'ifconfig_DEFAULT'

# cat /etc/rc.conf
dhclient_program="/usr/local/sbin/dhclient"
dhclient_flags="-q"

ec2_configinit_enable=YES
ec2_fetchkey_enable=YES
ec2_ephemeralswap_enable=YES
ec2_loghostkey_enable=YES

firstboot_freebsd_update_enable=YES
firstboot_pkgs_enable=YES
growfs_enable="YES"

ifconfig_DEFAULT="DHCP"
sshd_enable="YES"
firstboot_pkgs_list="awscli"

Result is that it works. But is this just luck that devd started before dhclient(ie. race condition)?

Going to commit this today. Is this a potential MFC to stable/10 candidate?

Not sure if you directed this at me Sean. But it would be awesome if we could get this functioning(MFCed) in FreeBSD 10 at least. This change is not all that's required though. Before this change Intel(or Eric Joyner erj@) dropped a big diff here which fixed some broader issues in the driver. As such, you would want to MFC that diff also for this one to have an impact. I see your comments for the commit of this diff you specified MFC as 2 weeks, but the below diff & commit doesn't mention any MFC so I'm not sure if that will happen?
