From 484d406a19b9cde41e3ffaed6fac4e8c099d4e06 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: John Lo Date: Wed, 30 Aug 2017 04:23:43 -0400 Subject: Improve L2FIB PDR/NDR performance (VPP-963) 1. Limit MAC entry update per l2-learn call to reduce update burst when wall clock advance to the the next minute so all MAC time stamps are behind current time. 2. Optimize l2-learn node fast path code sequence. 3. Invalidate cache_key when update MAC entry. 4. Change L2 learn hit counter to L2 learn hit-update counter. 5. Increase L2FIB table memory size to 512MB to fit 4M entries 6. Set MAC learn limit at 4M entries Change-Id: I19572f7f8a4b42a01be025a609fb03af50af16b2 Signed-off-by: John Lo --- src/vnet/l2/l2_fib.h | 2 +- src/vnet/l2/l2_learn.c | 45 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++----------------- 2 files changed, 29 insertions(+), 18 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/vnet/l2/l2_fib.h b/src/vnet/l2/l2_fib.h index 21dcc4513e0..d83260a6d1b 100644 --- a/src/vnet/l2/l2_fib.h +++ b/src/vnet/l2/l2_fib.h @@ -25,7 +25,7 @@ * The size of the hash table */ #define L2FIB_NUM_BUCKETS (64 * 1024) -#define L2FIB_MEMORY_SIZE (256<<20) +#define L2FIB_MEMORY_SIZE (512<<20) typedef struct { diff --git a/src/vnet/l2/l2_learn.c b/src/vnet/l2/l2_learn.c index 1bee2b4e1aa..488ea1ad992 100644 --- a/src/vnet/l2/l2_learn.c +++ b/src/vnet/l2/l2_learn.c @@ -78,7 +78,7 @@ _(MISS, "L2 learn misses") \ _(MAC_MOVE, "L2 mac moves") \ _(MAC_MOVE_VIOLATE, "L2 mac move violations") \ _(LIMIT, "L2 not learned due to limit") \ -_(HIT, "L2 learn hits") \ +_(HIT_UPDATE, "L2 learn hit updates") \ _(FILTER_DROP, "L2 filter mac drops") typedef enum @@ -113,7 +113,7 @@ l2learn_process (vlib_node_runtime_t * node, u32 sw_if_index0, l2fib_entry_key_t * key0, l2fib_entry_key_t * cached_key, - u32 * bucket0, + u32 * count, l2fib_entry_result_t * result0, u32 * next0, u8 timestamp) { u32 feature_bitmap; @@ -133,16 +133,24 @@ l2learn_process (vlib_node_runtime_t * node, /* Check mac table lookup result */ if (PREDICT_TRUE (result0->fields.sw_if_index == sw_if_index0)) { - /* - * The entry was in the table, and the sw_if_index matched, the normal case - */ - counter_base[L2LEARN_ERROR_HIT] += 1; - int update = !result0->fields.static_mac && - (result0->fields.timestamp != timestamp || - result0->fields.sn.as_u16 != vnet_buffer (b0)->l2.l2fib_sn); + /* Entry in L2FIB with matching sw_if_index matched - normal fast path */ + u32 dtime = timestamp - result0->fields.timestamp; + u32 dsn = result0->fields.sn.as_u16 - vnet_buffer (b0)->l2.l2fib_sn; + u32 check = dtime | dsn; - if (PREDICT_TRUE (!update)) + if (PREDICT_TRUE (check == 0)) + return; + + if (result0->fields.static_mac) return; + + /* Limit updates per l2-learn node call to avoid prolonged update burst + * as dtime advance over 1 minute mark, unless more than 1 min behind */ + if ((*count > 2) && (dtime == 1)) + return; + + counter_base[L2LEARN_ERROR_HIT_UPDATE] += 1; + *count += 1; } else if (result0->raw == ~0) { @@ -163,7 +171,6 @@ l2learn_process (vlib_node_runtime_t * node, msm->global_learn_count++; result0->raw = 0; /* clear all fields */ result0->fields.sw_if_index = sw_if_index0; - cached_key->raw = ~0; /* invalidate the cache */ } else { @@ -205,6 +212,9 @@ l2learn_process (vlib_node_runtime_t * node, kv.key = key0->raw; kv.value = result0->raw; BV (clib_bihash_add_del) (msm->mac_table, &kv, 1 /* is_add */ ); + + /* Invalidate the cache */ + cached_key->raw = ~0; } @@ -221,6 +231,7 @@ l2learn_node_inline (vlib_main_t * vm, vlib_node_runtime_t * node, l2fib_entry_key_t cached_key; l2fib_entry_result_t cached_result; u8 timestamp = (u8) (vlib_time_now (vm) / 60); + u32 count = 0; from = vlib_frame_vector_args (frame); n_left_from = frame->n_vectors; /* number of packets to process */ @@ -356,19 +367,19 @@ l2learn_node_inline (vlib_main_t * vm, vlib_node_runtime_t * node, l2learn_process (node, msm, &em->counters[node_counter_base_index], b0, sw_if_index0, &key0, &cached_key, - &bucket0, &result0, &next0, timestamp); + &count, &result0, &next0, timestamp); l2learn_process (node, msm, &em->counters[node_counter_base_index], b1, sw_if_index1, &key1, &cached_key, - &bucket1, &result1, &next1, timestamp); + &count, &result1, &next1, timestamp); l2learn_process (node, msm, &em->counters[node_counter_base_index], b2, sw_if_index2, &key2, &cached_key, - &bucket2, &result2, &next2, timestamp); + &count, &result2, &next2, timestamp); l2learn_process (node, msm, &em->counters[node_counter_base_index], b3, sw_if_index3, &key3, &cached_key, - &bucket3, &result3, &next3, timestamp); + &count, &result3, &next3, timestamp); /* verify speculative enqueues, maybe switch current next frame */ /* if next0==next1==next_index then nothing special needs to be done */ @@ -423,7 +434,7 @@ l2learn_node_inline (vlib_main_t * vm, vlib_node_runtime_t * node, l2learn_process (node, msm, &em->counters[node_counter_base_index], b0, sw_if_index0, &key0, &cached_key, - &bucket0, &result0, &next0, timestamp); + &count, &result0, &next0, timestamp); /* verify speculative enqueue, maybe switch current next frame */ vlib_validate_buffer_enqueue_x1 (vm, node, next_index, @@ -489,7 +500,7 @@ VLIB_NODE_FUNCTION_MULTIARCH (l2learn_node, l2learn_node_fn) * Set the default number of dynamically learned macs to the number * of buckets. */ - mp->global_learn_limit = L2FIB_NUM_BUCKETS * 128; + mp->global_learn_limit = L2FIB_NUM_BUCKETS * 64; return 0; } -- cgit 1.2.3-korg
