net: low latency Ethernet device polling

v4 cover net: low latency Ethernet device polling
Hello Dave,
I believe that I addressed the issues that were raised. Please look and see if you have more comments.
Thank you all for your input.
To prevent the use of a stale napi pointer, I implemented a global id that should be incremented whenever a napi is freed.
I used the free space in skb's second bitfield (7 bits) since I did not want to increase the size of the structure. In an earlier attempt to do this I chopped the global id to seven bits but in testing, this would crash on the wrap-around.
Now if the seven bits that are in the skb match the global id, we save the un-chopped id in the socket.
(This removes the module parameter and the limit on unloading.)
is this how you prefer the change log?
change log
v4
- removed separate config option for TCP busy-polling as suggested Eric Dumazet.
- added linux mib counter for packets received through the low latency path.
- re-allow module unloading, remove module param, use a global generation id instead to prevent the use of a stale napi pointer, as suggested by Eric Dumazet
- updated Documentation/networking/ip-sysctl.txt text
v3
- coding style changes suggested by Dave Miller
v2
- the sysctl knob is now in microseconds. The default value is now 0 (off).
- for now the code depends at configure time on CONFIG_I86_TSC
- the napi reference in struct skb is now a union with the dma cookie since the former is only used on RX and the latter on TX,
as suggested by Eric Dumazet.
- we do a better job at honoring non-blocking operations.
- removed busy-polling support for tcp_read_sock()
- remove dynamic disabling of GRO
- coding style fixes
- disallow unloading the device module after the feature has been used
Thanks,
Eliezer

PATCH v4 1/4 net: implement support for low latency socket polling
Adds a new ndo_ll_poll method and the code that supports and uses it. This method can be used by low latency applications to busy poll ethernet device queues directly from the socket code. The ip_low_latency_poll sysctl entry controls how many cycles to poll. Set to zero to disable.

One more general point: why is this treated as an IPv4 option (in Kconfig and sysctls)? I don't have any particular expectation that it will be used with network protocols other than IPv4 and v6 any time soon, but logically it's not dependent on them.

Re: [PATCH v4 net-next 3/4] ixgbe: Add support for ndo_ll_poll

Add the ixgbe driver code implementing
ndo_ll_poll. It should be easy for other drivers to do something similar in order to enable support forCONFIG_INET_LL_RX_POLL

I think that should be handled by the networking core (somewhere) and not by drivers.

Eliezer,
With AmirV's help we got this working on our NIC as well and it look nice. We too see the nice performance gain.
I tested with epoll and as expected there is no performance improvement. I don't think there is any point delaying this feature commit due to this fact. Future development should handle that.
I also tested LLS with different message rates.
Using sockperf you can set a ping send rate (--msp) and measure latency at different rates (I don't think netperf can do this).
In the financial trading sector, low latencies for 100mps are just as important as in 50Kmsp (or higher). The market orders go out at these low rates.
I noticed a penalty in the latency performance as I go lower in mps. I don't think it is related to the LLS code but it is more obvious then without it since you reach lower results.
These numbers are for sockperf TCP ping-pong at different msp for a 12 byte payload. I verified LLS hit counter was at 100% for all different message rates on both server and client side. Machine is a x86_64 Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2620 0 @ 2.00GHz with 64GB ram.
rate | LLS-on RTT | LLS-off RTT
(msp) | (usec) | (usec)
10000 | 14.0 | 21.8
1000 | 15.6 | 23.0
100 | 16.6 | 24.4You can see that as I go lower in send message rate the latency increases.
* Don't consider these number as best results, they or on a random machine with some effort tuning and core isolation. I saw this hit in performance as lower the msg rate on several machine elsewhere and I am sure it will reproduce on your tuned machine so you can notice it as well.
Again, this should not block your feature commit but is interesting for me to understand and I though someone here might have a good explanation.
thanks,
