[PATCH] app/testpmd: improve sse based macswap

[Vipin Varghese]

Goal of the patch is to improve SSE macswap on x86_64 by reducing
the stalls in backend engine. Original implementation of the SSE
macswap makes loop call to multiple load, shuffle & store. Using
SIMD ISA interleaving we can reduce the stalls for
 - load SSE token exhaustion
 - Shuffle and Load dependency

Also other changes which improves packet per second are
 - Filling access to MBUF for offload flags which is separate cacheline,
 - using register keyword

Build test using meson script:

Hi Bruce, John,

Can you please help testing macswap performance with this patch on Intel
platforms, to be sure it is not causing regression?

Other option is to get this patch for -rc3 and tested there, with the
condition to remove it in any regression, if this help testing the patch?

Thanks,
ferruh

Hi Ferruh,

We can try and get some Intel numbers for you, but I think at this point it
is better deferred to 24.11 due to lack of discussion and analysis of the
numbers. This is because the numbers above already show that it is causing
regressions - in fact many of the regressions are larger than the benefits
shown. This may be acceptable, but it would imply that we shouldn't be too
hasty in applying the patch.

Hi Bruce,

Thanks for highlighting the variance. We found this was an internal test 
bed configuration issue. We are sharing the next version of the same 
patch with updated numbers.

Great, thanks for the update.

[PATCH v2 0/3] app/testpmd: improve sse based macswap

[Vipin Varghese]

Goal of the patch series is to improve SSE macswap on x86_64 by
reducing the stalls in backend engine. Original implementation of
the SSE-mac-swap makes loop call to multiple load, shuffle & store.

Using SIMD ISA interleaving, register variable and reducing L1 & L2
cache eviction, we can reduce the stalls for
 - load SSE token exhaustion
 - Shuffle and Load dependency

Build test using meson script:
``````````````````````````````

[PATCH v2 1/3] app/testpmd: add register keyword

[Vipin Varghese]

Currently SSE SIMD variables are declared as stack variables. Allowing
the use of keyword register for shuffle mask and address variables,
improves the mac-swap Mpps by 1 for single queue.

Test Result:

[PATCH v2 2/3] app/testpmd: move offload update

[Vipin Varghese]

Moving the offload flag update from end to start of the loop,
helps to reduce L1 or L2 cache evictions and amortize shuffle.
This helps to improve RX packet in mac-swap processing.

Some compilers treat register as a no-op. Are you sure? Did you check with godbolt.

Thank you Stephen, I have tested the code changes on Linux using GCC and 
Clang compiler.

In both cases in Linux environment, we have seen the the values loaded 
onto register `xmm`.

```
registerconst__m128i shfl_msk = _mm_set_epi8(15, 14, 13, 12, 5, 4, 3, 2, 
1, 0, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6);
vmovdqaxmm0, xmmwordptr[rip+ .LCPI0_0]

```

Both cases we have performance improvement.


Can you please help us understand if we have missed out something?

Hi Stephen, I totally agree with your point, but in practice it did not 
use registers for code generation.

Yep, that what I would probably expect: one time load before the loop starts, right?
Curious  what exactly it would generate then if 'register' keyword is missed?
BTW, on my box,  gcc-11  with '-O3 -msse4.2 ...'  I am seeing expected behavior without 'register' keyword.
Is it some particular compiler version that misbehaves?

Thank you, Konstantin, for this pointer. I have been trying this understand this a bit more internally. Here are my observations

1. shuf simd ISA works on XMM register only.
2. Any values from variables has to be loaded to `xmm` register before processing.
3. when compiled for `-march=native` with compiler not aware (SoC Arch gcc weights) without patch might have generating with ` movzx   eax, BYTE PTR [rbp-48]`
4. when register keyword is applied for both shufl_mask and addr, the compiler generates trying to get the variables directly into xmm using ` vmovdqu (%rsi),%xmm1`

So, I think you are right, from gcc12.3 and gcc 13.1 which supports `-march=znver4` this problem will not come.

Hi Konstantin, Stephen,

There is no negative impact of adding 'register' keyword, right? At
worst it is useless, but Vipin can demonstrate that it has benefit for
some cases, so I think OK to get it.
