Details

Summary

Out of order updates to rxd's is fixed in r315217. However, it is not
completely fixed.
While refilling the buffers, iflib is not considering the out of order
descriptors. Hence, it is refilling sequentially.
"idx" variable in _iflib_fl_refill routine is incremented sequentially.
By doing refilling sequentially, it will override the SGEs that
are *IN USE* by other connections.
Fix is to maintain a bitmap of rx descriptors and differentiate the used
one with unused one and refill only at the unused indices.
This patch also fixes a few bugs in bnxt, related to the same feature.

I really hate the idea of spreading the linux kpi, but I totally understand why you used it. We should probably move a lot of that stuff to a native interface.

Yes, I agree with you. Even I didn't like it. I also agree of moving all such helper functions to a native file.
Having said that, IMO, moving the helper functions to the native file in a separate patch would be more cleaner.
I will submit a separate patch for that based on your comments.

Hi Sean,
Could you please commit this patch, if there are no further review comments.
I will submit a different patch for Andrew Gallatin's comments.

Thanks,
Venkat.

Possibly i should be renamed since it needs to exist beyond the loop. But either that line isn't needed, or it needs to be fixed in other places.

sys/dev/bnxt/if_bnxt.c
553 โ†—(On Diff #28241)

Why isn't i already this value, and if it isn't, why isn't the same thing needed below for line 561?

I'm confused by phabricator's behavior. I thought I inserted an inline comment about the bitops file.

Original comment that I added:

"Can we not use the linuxkpi version here and use sys/bitops.h instead?"

This patch seems to be enabling TPA (hardware LRO). That's not listed in the review commit message. Is that something we want to indicate in this commit when it hits head?

So the reason to not use bitset(9) is because the maximum size of the set is prohibitively large? I'm pretty sure it's limited by type to 16-bits, so 8k per list which doesn't seem too crazy, or am I missing something else?

It looks like bitstring(3) is available in the kernel as well. I no longer see any reason to use the Linux KPI here.

Chenna,
Please commandeer this revision and work on the review comments.

bit_free API doesn't exist as of today, seems like.
So, either you can introduce bit_free which essentially would a wrapper for "free".
or you can use "free" directly to free the bitmap memory.

Yeah, no need for a new wrapper. The reason to have a separate alloc function is so you can specify the size in bits, there's nothing a free() wrapper would add.

This revision was automatically updated to reflect the committed changes.

I have reverted this at svn revision 320059.

This is generating startup Lock Order Reversal errors (that I should have noted) and a kernel panic when adding elements to a bridge device.

Sean Bruno,

Thank you!!
I'm able to reproduce those warning messages when compile Kernel with DEBUG option.
I'll be looking into the issue and get back.

bnxt: Enable HW LRO and Fix out-of-order updates to rxd's completely.

Correction to earlier patch:
Realized that we have been invoking bit_alloc() by holding CTX_LOCK , i.e. from iflib_init_locked().
Corrected alloc and free invocations in following way, i.e. one from _register() and other from _deregister().

iflib_device_register() => iflib_queues_alloc() ==> bit_alloc(ifl_rx_bitmap)
iflib_device_deregister() ==> free(ifl_rx_bitmap)

Have you looked at the kernel crash when adding a device to a ethernet bridge?

<Chenna>
Yes, I tried Ethernet bridge also, no issues seen.
#ifconfig bridge0 create
#ifconfig bridge0 addm bnxt0
No Stacktrace / Crash seen.

Note: I do not have em0 in my server so tried with bnxt0, bge0 and bge1, no Crash.

bnxt(4) and em(4) are the only drivers that have implemented the IFLIB api. bge(4) does not. I'm assuming that there is a data structure element being dereferenced here that we need to initialize in em(4).

Sean,

  1. I'm able to recreate the Crash with igb0 on my other setup.
  2. Root caused as fl->ifl_fragidx wasn't resetting (to 0) on iflib_fl_bufs_free().
  3. I quickly made the patch with that change. It would be great if you can verify it on your setup
  4. I need a day or Two to take care of other review comments.

And that last diff works fine. No panic.
