[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 0/8] net/vmxnet3: fix offload issues

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 0/8] net/vmxnet3: fix offload issues

[Didier Pallard]

This patchset fixes several issues found in vmxnet3 driver
when enabling LRO offload support:
- Rx offload information are not correctly gathered in
  multisegmented packets, leading to inconsistent
  packet type and Rx offload bits in resulting mbuf
- MSS recovery from offload information is not done
  thus LRO mbufs do not contain a correct tso_segsz value.
- MSS value is not propagated by the host on some
  hypervisor versions (6.0 for example)
- If two small TCP segments are aggregated in a single
  mbuf, an empty segment that only contains offload
  information is appended to this segment, and is
  propagated as is to the application. But if the application
  sends back to the hypervisor a mbuf with an empty
  segment, this mbuf is dropped by the hypervisor.

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 1/8] net: export IPv6 header extensions skip function

[Didier Pallard]

skip_ip6_ext function can be exported as a helper, it may be used
by some PMD to skip IPv6 header extensions.

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 2/8] net/vmxnet3: return unknown IPv4 extension len ptype

[Didier Pallard]

Rather than parsing IP header to get proper ptype to return, just return
RTE_PTYPE_L3_IPV4_EXT_UNKNOWN, that tells application that we have an IP
packet with unknown header length.

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 3/8] net/vmxnet3: gather offload data on first and last segment

[Didier Pallard]

Offloads are split between first and last segment of a packet.
Call a single vmxnet3_rx_offload function that will contain all
offload operations. This patch does not introduce any code modification.

Pass a vmxnet3_hw as parameter to the function, it is not presently
used in this patch, but will be later used for TSO offloads.

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 4/8] net/vmxnet3: fix Rx offload information in multiseg packets

[Didier Pallard]

In case we are working on a multisegment buffer, most bit are set
in last segment of the buffer. Correctly look at those bits in eop part
of the rx_offload function.

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 6/8] net/vmxnet3: guess mss if not provided in LRO mode

[Didier Pallard]

Not so old variants of vmxnet3 do not provide MSS value along with
LRO packet. When this case happens, try to guess MSS value with
information at hand.

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 7/8] net/vmxnet3: ignore emtpy segments in reception

[Didier Pallard]

When several TCP fragments are contained in a packet that is only one mbuf
segment long, vmxnet3 receives an empty segment following first one, that
contains offload information. In current version, this segment is
propagated as is to upper application.
Remove those empty segments directly when receiving buffers, they may
generate unneeded extra processing in the upper application.

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 8/8] net/vmxnet3: skip empty segments in transmission

[Didier Pallard]

Packets containing empty segments are dropped by hypervisor, prevent
this case by skipping empty segments in transmission.
Also drop empty mbufs to be sure that at least one segment is transmitted
for each mbuf.

Re: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH 0/8] net/vmxnet3: fix offload issues

[Didier Pallard]

Hi wang,

We didn't make unitary tests with testpmd tools, the validation tests 
have been done
using our DPDK application in the following topology:


+------------------------------+
| +-----------+  +-----------+ |
| | Linux VM1 |  | Linux VM2 | |
| +------+----+  +----+------+ |
|       VMware DvSwitch        |
|     +--+------------+--+     |
|     |  +---OVSbr0---+  |     |
|     |                  |     |
|     |  6WIND DPDK app  |     |
|     +------------------+     |
|      VMware ESXi 6.0/6.5     |
+------------------------------+



All the available offloads are enabled in Linux VM 1 and 2.
Iperf TCP traffic is started from Linux VM1 to Linux VM2.


With ESXi 6.0 (vHW 11), we got the following numbers using 2 cores for 
our DPDK app:
- with LRO enabled on the DPDK app ports: 21 Gbps
- with LRO disabled on the DPDK app ports: 9 Gbps


With ESXi 6.5 (vHW 13), we got the following numbers using 2 cores for 
our DPDK app:
- with LRO enabled on the DPDK app ports: 40 Gbps
- with LRO disabled on the DPDK app ports: 20 Gbps

Any specific reason of doing this? I can image there are applications that depend on this and the cost of parsing is simply shifted to the app or via rte_eth_add_rx_callback().

Re: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH 2/8] net/vmxnet3: return unknown IPv4 extension len ptype

[Didier Pallard]

Hi wang,

Indeed, this one is not strictly needed and does not fix anything, anyway:

- If application does not need the information (ethernet bridge, for 
example),
this access is not needed and it will never be done, so application 
performance
will be improved.

- If application needs the information, you're true, the parsing will 
just  be shifted
to the application procedure, but I think that data access locality will 
be increased
since the application will certainly do other stuff around the same 
memory location.
And in this case, final performance figures should be at worst the same 
than before the
patch.

Didier
