2019-10-23devices: vhoost cpu->copy array overflow on tcp jumbo frame (65535 bytes)Steven Luong2-2/+8
We reserve 40 slots in cpu->copy array prior to copy out to avoid overflowing the array. However, 40 is not enough for the jumbo frame because desceiptor buffer len is likely at 1536. Change the reserve to 200 and add ASSERT to avoid encountering the same problem in the future.

2019-10-07devices: vhost not reading packets from vringSteven Luong2-0/+25
In a rare event, after the vhost protocol message exchange has finished and the interface had been brought up successfully, the driver MAY still change its mind about the memory regions by sending new memory maps via SET_MEM_TABLE. Upon processing SET_MEM_TABLE, VPP invalidates the old memory regions and the descriptor tables. But it does not re-compute the new descriptor tables based on the new memory maps. Since VPP does not have the descriptor tables, it does not read the packets from the vring. In the normal working case, after SET_MEM_TABLE, the driver follows up with SET_VRING_ADDRESS which VPP computes the descriptor tables. The fix is to stash away the descriptor table addresses from SET_VRING_ADDRESS. Re-compute the new descriptor tables when processing SET_MEM_TABLE if descriptor table addresses are known.

2019-07-23api: binary api cleanupDave Barach3-8/+14
Multiple API message handlers call vnet_get_sup_hw_interface(...) without checking the inbound sw_if_index. This can cause a pool_elt_at_index ASSERT in a debug image, and major disorder in a production image. Given that a number of places are coded as follows, add an "api_visible_or_null" variant of vnet_get_sup_hw_interface, which returns NULL given an invalid sw_if_index, or a hidden sw interface: - hw = vnet_get_sup_hw_interface (vnm, sw_if_index); + hw = vnet_get_sup_hw_interface_api_visible_or_null (vnm, sw_if_index); if (hw == NULL || memif_device_class.index != hw->dev_class_index) return clib_error_return (0, "not a memif interface"); Rename two existing xxx_safe functions -> xxx_or_null to make it obvious what they return.

2019-07-23devices: vhost handling VHOST_USER_SET_FEATURESSteven Luong1-0/+1
Some combinations of new qemu (2.11) and old dpdk (16.10) may send VHOST_USER_SET_FEATURES at the end of the protocol exchange which the vhost interface is already declared up and ready. Unfortunately, the process of VHOST_USER_SET_FEATURES will cause the interface to go down. Not sure if it is correct or needed. Because there is no additional messages thereafter, the hardware interface stays down. The fix is to check the interface again at the end of processing VHOST_USER_SET_FEATURES. If it is up and ready, we bring back the hardware interface. Type: fix Change-Id: I490cd03820deacbd8b44d8f2cb38c26349dbe3b2 Signed-off-by: Steven Luong <sluong@cisco.com>
2019-07-18vlib: convert frame_index into real pointersAndreas Schultz1-1/+1
The fast path almost always has to deal with the real pointers. Deriving the frame pointer from a frame_index requires a load of the 32bit frame_index from memory, another 64bit load of the heap base pointer and some calculations. Lets store the full pointer instead and do a single 64bit load only. This helps avoiding problems when the heap is grown and frames are allocated below vm->heap_aligned_base.

2019-05-28tap: crash in multi-thread environmentMohsin Kazmi2-1/+4
In tap tx routine, virtio_interface_tx_inline, there used to be an interface spinlock to ensure packets are processed in an orderly fashion clib_spinlock_lock_if_init (&vif->lockp); When virtio code was introduced in 19.04, that line is changed to clib_spinlock_lock_if_init (&vring->lockp); to accommodate multi-queues. Unfortunately, althrough the spinlock exists in the vring, it was never initialized for tap, only for virtio. As a result, many nasty things can happen when running tap interface in multi-thread environment. Crash is inevitable. The fix is to initialize vring->lockp for tap and remove vif->lockp as it is not used anymore.

2019-05-16init / exit function orderingDave Barach1-6/+6
The vlib init function subsystem now supports a mix of procedural and formally-specified ordering constraints. We should eliminate procedural knowledge wherever possible. The following schemes are *roughly* equivalent: static clib_error_t *init_runs_first (vlib_main_t *vm) { clib_error_t *error; ... do some stuff... if ((error = vlib_call_init_function (init_runs_next))) return error; ... } VLIB_INIT_FUNCTION (init_runs_first); and static clib_error_t *init_runs_first (vlib_main_t *vm) { ... do some stuff... } VLIB_INIT_FUNCTION (init_runs_first) = { .runs_before = VLIB_INITS("init_runs_next"), }; The first form will [most likely] call "init_runs_next" on the spot. The second form means that "init_runs_first" runs before "init_runs_next," possibly much earlier in the sequence. Please DO NOT construct sets of init functions where A before B actually means A *right before* B. It's not necessary - simply combine A and B - and it leads to hugely annoying debugging exercises when trying to switch from ad-hoc procedural ordering constraints to formal ordering constraints.

2019-02-21vhost: VPP stalls with vhost performing control plane actionsSteven Luong3-214/+259
Symptom ------- With NDR traffic blasting at VPP, bringing up a new VM with vhost connection to VPP causes packet drops. I am able to recreate this problem easily using a simple setup like this. TREX-------------- switch ---- VPP |---------------| |-------| Cause ----- The reason for the packet drops is due to vhost holding onto the worker barrier lock for too long in vhost_user_socket_read(). There are quite a few of system calls inside the routine. At the end of the routine, it unconditionally calls vhost_user_update_iface_state() for all message types. vhost_user_update_iface_state() also unconditionally calls vhost_user_rx_thread_placement() and vhost_user_tx_thread_placement(). vhost_user_rx_thread_placement scraps out all existing cpu/queue mappings for the interface and creates brand new cpu/queue mappings for the interface. This process is very disruptive and very expensive. In my opinion, this area of code needs a makeover. Fixes ----- * vhost_user_socket_read() is rewritten that it should not hold onto the worker barrier lock for system calls, or at least minimize the need for doing it. * Remove the call to vhost_user_update_iface_state as a default route at the end of vhost_user_socket_read(). There is only a couple of message types which really need to call vhost_user_update_iface_state(). We put the call to those message types which need it. * Remove vhost_user_rx_thread_placement() and vhost_user_tx_thread_placement from vhost_user_update_iface_state(). There is no need to repetatively change the cpu/queue mappings. * vhost_user_rx_thread_placement() is actually quite expensive. It should be called only once per queue for the interface. There is no need to scrap the existing cpu/queue mappings and create new cpu/queue mappings when the additional queues becomes active/enable. * Change to create the cpu/queue mappings for the first RX when the interface is created. Dont remove the cpu/queue mapping when the interface is disconnected. Remove the cpu/queue mapping only when the interface is deleted. The create vhost user interface CLI also has some very expensive system calls if the command is entered with the optional keyword "server" As a bonus, This patch makes the create vhost user interface binary-api and CLI thread safe. Do the protection for the small amount of code which is thread unsafe. Change-Id: I4a19cbf7e9cc37ea01286169882e5603e6d7eb77 Signed-off-by: Steven Luong <sluong@cisco.com>
2019-02-19tap gso: experimental supportAndrew Yourtchenko4-7/+121
This commit adds a "gso" parameter to existing "create tap..." CLI, and a "no-gso" parameter for the compatibility with the future, when/if defaults change. It makes use of the lowest bit of the "tap_flags" field in the API call in order to allow creation of GSO interfaces via API as well. It does the necessary syscalls to enable the GSO and checksum offload support on the kernel side and sets two flags on the interface: virtio-specific virtio_if_t.gso_enabled, and vnet_hw_interface_t.flags & VNET_HW_INTERFACE_FLAG_SUPPORTS_GSO. The first one, if enabled, triggers the marking of the GSO-encapsulated packets on ingress with VNET_BUFFER_F_GSO flag, and setting vnet_buffer2(b)->gso_size to the desired L4 payload size. VNET_HW_INTERFACE_FLAG_SUPPORTS_GSO determines the egress packet processing in interface-output for such packets: When the flag is set, they are sent out almost as usual (just taking care to set the vnet header for virtio). When the flag is not enabled (the case for most interfaces), the egress path performs the re-segmentation such that the L4 payload of the transmitted packets equals gso_size. The operations in the datapath are enabled only when there is at least one GSO-compatible interface in the system - this is done by tracking the count in interface_main.gso_interface_count. This way the impact of conditional checks for the setups that do not use GSO is minimized. "show tap" CLI shows the state of the GSO flag on the interface, and the total count of GSO-enabled interfaces (which is used to enable the GSO-related processing in the packet path). This commit lacks IPv6 extension header traversal support of any kind - the L4 payload is assumed to follow the IPv6 header. Also it performs the offloads only for TCP (TSO - TCP segmentation offload). The UDP fragmentation offload (UFO) is not part of it. For debug purposes it also adds the debug CLI: "set tap gso {<interface> | sw_if_index <sw_idx>} <enable|disable>" Change-Id: Ifd562db89adcc2208094b3d1032cee8c307aaef9 Signed-off-by: Andrew Yourtchenko <ayourtch@gmail.com>
