[ovs-dev] [PATCH v4] dpif-netdev: proper tx queue id

Ilya Maximets i.maximets at samsung.com
Wed Sep 2 11:44:25 UTC 2015


Currently tx_qid is equal to pmd->core_id. This leads to unexpected
behavior if pmd-cpu-mask different from '/(0*)(1|3|7)?(f*)/',
e.g. if core_ids are not sequential, or doesn't start from 0, or both.

Example:
	starting 2 pmd threads with 1 port, 2 rxqs per port,
	pmd-cpu-mask = 00000014 and let dev->real_n_txq = 2

	It that case pmd_1->tx_qid = 2, pmd_2->tx_qid = 4 and
	txq_needs_locking = true (if device hasn't ovs_numa_get_n_cores()+1
	queues).

	In that case, after truncating in netdev_dpdk_send__():
		'qid = qid % dev->real_n_txq;'
	pmd_1: qid = 2 % 2 = 0
	pmd_2: qid = 4 % 2 = 0

	So, both threads will call dpdk_queue_pkts() with same qid = 0.
	This is unexpected behavior if there is 2 tx queues in device.
	Queue #1 will not be used and both threads will lock queue #0
	on each send.

Fix that by introducing per pmd thread hash map 'tx_queues', where will
be stored all available tx queues for that pmd thread with
port_no as a key(hash). All tx_qid-s will be unique per port and
sequential to prevent described unexpected mapping after truncating.

Implemented infrastructure can be used in the future to choose
between all tx queues available for that pmd thread.

---
version 4:
	* fixed distribution of tx queues if multiqueue is not supported

version 3:
	* fixed failing of unit tests by adding tx queues of non
	  pmd devices to non pmd thread. (they haven't been used by any thread)
	* pmd_flush_tx_queues --> dp_netdev_pmd_detach_tx_queues
	* function names changed to dp_netdev_*
	* dp_netdev_pmd_lookup_txq now looks by port_no.
	* removed unnecessary dp_netdev_lookup_port in dp_execute_cb
	  for OVS_ACTION_ATTR_OUTPUT.
	* refactoring
