ovs: clear skb->tstamp in forwarding path

2021-08-18T10:31:13Z

fq qdisc requires tstamp to be cleared in the forwarding path. Now ovs doesn't clear skb->tstamp. We encountered a problem with linux version 5.4.56 and ovs version 2.14.1, and packets failed to dequeue from qdisc when fq qdisc was attached to ovs port.

openvswitch: Introduce per-cpu upcall dispatch

2021-07-16T18:06:33Z

The Open vSwitch kernel module uses the upcall mechanism to send packets from kernel space to user space when it misses in the kernel space flow table. The upcall sends packets via a Netlink socket. Currently, a Netlink socket is created for every vport. In this way, there is a 1:1 mapping between a vport and a Netlink socket. When a packet is received by a vport, if it needs to be sent to user space, it is sent via the corresponding Netlink socket. This mechanism, with various iterations of the corresponding user space code, has seen some limitations and issues: * On systems with a large number of vports, there is a correspondingly large number of Netlink sockets which can limit scaling. (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1526306) * Packet reordering on upcalls. (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1844576) * A thundering herd issue. (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1834444) This patch introduces an alternative, feature-negotiated, upcall mode using a per-cpu dispatch rather than a per-vport dispatch. In this mode, the Netlink socket to be used for the upcall is selected based on the CPU of the thread that is executing the upcall. In this way, it resolves the issues above as: a) The number of Netlink sockets scales with the number of CPUs rather than the number of vports. b) Ordering per-flow is maintained as packets are distributed to CPUs based on mechanisms such as RSS and flows are distributed to a single user space thread. c) Packets from a flow can only wake up one user space thread.

openvswitch: Optimize operation for key comparison

2021-07-01T18:13:10Z

In the current implement when comparing two flow keys, we will return result after comparing the whole key from start to end. In our optimization, we will return result in the first none-zero comparison, then we will improve the flow table looking up efficiency.

openvswitch: add trace points

2021-06-22T17:47:32Z

This makes openvswitch module use the event tracing framework to log the upcall interface and action execution pipeline. When using openvswitch as the packet forwarding engine, some types of debugging are made possible simply by using the ovs-vswitchd's ofproto/trace command. However, such a command has some limitations: 1. When trying to trace packets that go through the CT action, the state of the packet can't be determined, and probably would be potentially wrong. 2. Deducing problem packets can sometimes be difficult as well even if many of the flows are known 3. It's possible to use the openvswitch module even without the ovs-vswitchd (although, not common use). Introduce the event tracing points here to make it possible for working through these problems in kernel space. The style is copied from the mac80211 driver-trace / trace code for consistency - this creates some checkpatch splats, but the official 'guide' for adding tracepoints, as well as the existing examples all add the same splats so it seems acceptable.
