Instead of 'pfifo_fast' we have just plain 'fifo_fast'. No priority queues, just a straight FIFO. This is necessary in order to legally have a seperate qdisc per queue in multi-TX-queue setups, and thus get full parallelization. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

We have to have exclusive access to the given qdisc anyways, so doing even more locking is superfluous. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Move the destruction of the old queue into qdisc_graft(). When operating on a root qdisc (ie. "parent == NULL"), apply the operation to all queues. The caller has grabbed a single implicit reference for this graft, therefore when we apply the change to more than one queue we must grab additional qdisc references. Otherwise, we are operating on a class of a specific parent qdisc, and therefore no multiqueue handling is necessary. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

We can simply use the qdisc->q.lock for all of the qdisc tree synchronization. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Make sch_tree_lock() lock the qdisc's root. All of the users hold the RTNL semaphore and the root qdisc is not changing. Implement tbf_tree_{lock,unlock}() simply in terms of sch_tree_{lock,unlock}(). Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Lock the root of the qdisc being operated upon. All explicit references to qdisc_tree_lock() are now gone. The only remaining uses are via the sch_tree_{lock,unlock}() and tcf_tree_{lock,unlock}() macros. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

It just wants the qdisc tree to be synchronized, so grabbing qdisc_root_lock() is sufficient. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

It just wants the qdisc tree for the filter to be synchronized. So just BH lock qdisc_root_lock(q) instead. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This allows less strict control of access to the qdisc attached to a netdev_queue. It is even allowed to enqueue into a qdisc which is in the process of being destroyed. The RCU handler will toss out those packets. We will need this to handle sharing of a qdisc amongst multiple TX queues. In such a setup the lock has to be shared, so will be inside of the qdisc itself. At which point the netdev_queue lock cannot be used to hard synchronize access to the ->qdisc pointer. One operation we have to keep inside of qdisc_destroy() is the list deletion. It is the only piece of state visible after the RCU quiesce period, so we have to undo it early and under the appropriate locking. The operations in the RCU handler do not need any looking because the qdisc tree is no longer visible to anything at that point. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

We are registering the device, there is no way anyone can get at this object's qdiscs yet in any meaningful way. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

When we have shared qdiscs, packets come out of the qdiscs for multiple transmit queues. Therefore it doesn't make any sense to schedule the transmit queue when logically we cannot know ahead of time the TX queue of the SKB that the qdisc->dequeue() will give us. Just for sanity I added a BUG check to make sure we never get into a state where the noop_qdisc is scheduled. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

When code wants to lock the qdisc tree state, the logic operation it's doing is locking the top-level qdisc that sits of the root of the netdev_queue. Add qdisc_root_lock() to represent this and convert the easiest cases. In order for this to work out in all cases, we have to hook up the noop_qdisc to a dummy netdev_queue. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Currently it is associated with a netdev_queue, but when we have qdisc sharing that no longer makes any sense. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

We liberate any dangling gso_skb during qdisc destruction. It really only matters for the root qdisc. But when qdiscs can be shared by multiple netdev_queue objects, we can't have the gso_skb in the netdev_queue any more. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

It just xor hashes over IPv4/IPv6 addresses and ports of transport. The only assumption it makes is that skb_network_header() is set correctly. With bug fixes from Eric Dumazet. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The only behavior change is that we do not drop packets under any circumstances. If that is absolutely needed, we could easily add it back. With cleanups and help from Johannes Berg. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Devices or device layers can set this to control the queue selection performed by dev_pick_tx(). This function runs under RCU protection, which allows overriding functions to have some way of synchronizing with things like dynamic ->real_num_tx_queues adjustments. This makes the spinlock prefetch in dev_queue_xmit() a little bit less effective, but that's the price right now for correctness. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The private area of a netdev is now at a fixed offset once more. Unfortunately, some assumptions that netdev_priv() == netdev->priv crept back into the tree. In particular this happened in the loopback driver. Make it use netdev->ml_priv. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This effectively "flips the switch" by making the core networking and multiqueue-aware drivers use the new TX multiqueue structures. Non-multiqueue drivers need no changes. The interfaces they use such as netif_stop_queue() degenerate into an operation on TX queue zero. So everything "just works" for them. Code that really wants to do "X" to all TX queues now invokes a routine that does so, such as netif_tx_wake_all_queues(), netif_tx_stop_all_queues(), etc. pktgen and netpoll required a little bit more surgery than the others. In particular the pktgen changes, whilst functional, could be largely improved. The initial check in pktgen_xmit() will sometimes check the wrong queue, which is mostly harmless. The thing to do is probably to invoke fill_packet() earlier. The bulk of the netpoll changes is to make the code operate solely on the TX queue indicated by by the SKB queue mapping. Setting of the SKB queue mapping is entirely confined inside of net/core/dev.c:dev_pick_tx(). If we end up needing any kind of special semantics (drops, for example) it will be implemented here. Finally, we now have a "real_num_tx_queues" which is where the driver indicates how many TX queues are actually active. With IGB changes from Jeff Kirsher. Signed-off-by: David S.

This actually fixes a bug added by the RR scheduler changes. The ->bands and ->prio2band parameters were being set outside of the sch_tree_lock() and thus could result in strange behavior and inconsistencies. It might be possible, in the new design (where there will be one qdisc per device TX queue) to allow similar functionality via a TX hash algorithm for RR but I really see no reason to export this aspect of how these multiqueue cards actually implement the scheduling of the the individual DMA TX rings and the single physical MAC/PHY port.

There is no need for a feature bit for something that can be tested by simply checking the TX queue count. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
-
David S. Miller authored
alloc_netdev_mq() now allocates an array of netdev_queue structures for TX, based upon the queue_count argument. Furthermore, all accesses to the TX queues are now vectored through the netdev_get_tx_queue() and netdev_for_each_tx_queue() interfaces. This makes it easy to grep the tree for all things that want to get to a TX queue of a net device. Problem spots which are not really multiqueue aware yet, and only work with one queue, can easily be spotted by grepping for all netdev_get_tx_queue() calls that pass in a zero index.
