* Implement a CPU-affine TCP and UDP connection lookup data structure,rwatson2011-06-061-1/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | struct inpcbgroup. pcbgroups, or "connection groups", supplement the existing inpcbinfo connection hash table, which when pcbgroups are enabled, might now be thought of more usefully as a per-protocol 4-tuple reservation table. Connections are assigned to connection groups base on a hash of their 4-tuple; wildcard sockets require special handling, and are members of all connection groups. During a connection lookup, a per-connection group lock is employed rather than the global pcbinfo lock. By aligning connection groups with input path processing, connection groups take on an effective CPU affinity, especially when aligned with RSS work placement (see a forthcoming commit for details). This eliminates cache line migration associated with global, protocol-layer data structures in steady state TCP and UDP processing (with the exception of protocol-layer statistics; further commit to follow). Elements of this approach were inspired by Willman, Rixner, and Cox's 2006 USENIX paper, "An Evaluation of Network Stack Parallelization Strategies in Modern Operating Systems". However, there are also significant differences: we maintain the inpcb lock, rather than using the connection group lock for per-connection state. Likewise, the focus of this implementation is alignment with NIC packet distribution strategies such as RSS, rather than pure software strategies. Despite that focus, software distribution is supported through the parallel netisr implementation, and works well in configurations where the number of hardware threads is greater than the number of NIC input queues, such as in the RMI XLR threaded MIPS architecture. Another important difference is the continued maintenance of existing hash tables as "reservation tables" -- these are useful both to distinguish the resource allocation aspect of protocol name management and the more common-case lookup aspect. In configurations where connection tables are aligned with hardware hashes, it is desirable to use the traditional lookup tables for loopback or encapsulated traffic rather than take the expense of hardware hashes that are hard to implement efficiently in software (such as RSS Toeplitz). Connection group support is enabled by compiling "options PCBGROUP" into your kernel configuration; for the time being, this is an experimental feature, and hence is not enabled by default. Subject to the limited MFCability of change dependencies in inpcb, and its change to the inpcbinfo init function signature, this change in principle could be merged to FreeBSD 8.x.

* Add _mbuf() variants of various inpcb-related interfaces, including lookup,rwatson2011-06-041-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | hash install, etc. For now, these are arguments are unused, but as we add RSS support, we will want to use hashes extracted from mbufs, rather than manually calculated hashes of header fields, due to the expensive of the software version of Toeplitz (and similar hashes). Add notes that it would be nice to be able to pass mbufs into lookup routines in pf(4), optimising firewall lookup in the same way, but the code structure there doesn't facilitate that currently. (In principle there is no reason this couldn't be MFCed -- the change extends rather than modifies the KBI. However, it won't be useful without other previous possibly less MFCable changes.)

* Decompose the current single inpcbinfo lock into two locks:rwatson2011-05-301-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - The existing ipi_lock continues to protect the global inpcb list and inpcb counter. This lock is now relegated to a small number of allocation and free operations, and occasional operations that walk all connections (including, awkwardly, certain UDP multicast receive operations -- something to revisit). - A new ipi_hash_lock protects the two inpcbinfo hash tables for looking up connections and bound sockets, manipulated using new INP_HASH_*() macros. This lock, combined with inpcb locks, protects the 4-tuple address space. Unlike the current ipi_lock, ipi_hash_lock follows the individual inpcb connection locks, so may be acquired while manipulating a connection on which a lock is already held, avoiding the need to acquire the inpcbinfo lock preemptively when a binding change might later be required. As a result, however, lookup operations necessarily go through a reference acquire while holding the lookup lock, later acquiring an inpcb lock -- if required. A new function in_pcblookup() looks up connections, and accepts flags indicating how to return the inpcb. Due to lock order changes, callers no longer need acquire locks before performing a lookup: the lookup routine will acquire the ipi_hash_lock as needed. In the future, it will also be able to use alternative lookup and locking strategies transparently to callers, such as pcbgroup lookup. New lookup flags are, supplementing the existing INPLOOKUP_WILDCARD flag: INPLOOKUP_RLOCKPCB - Acquire a read lock on the returned inpcb INPLOOKUP_WLOCKPCB - Acquire a write lock on the returned inpcb Callers must pass exactly one of these flags (for the time being). Some notes: - All protocols are updated to work within the new regime; especially, TCP, UDPv4, and UDPv6. pcbinfo ipi_lock acquisitions are largely eliminated, and global hash lock hold times are dramatically reduced compared to previous locking. - The TCP syncache still relies on the pcbinfo lock, something that we may want to revisit. - Support for reverting to the FreeBSD 7.x locking strategy in TCP input is no longer available -- hash lookup locks are now held only very briefly during inpcb lookup, rather than for potentially extended periods. However, the pcbinfo ipi_lock will still be acquired if a connection state might change such that a connection is added or removed. - Raw IP sockets continue to use the pcbinfo ipi_lock for protection, due to maintaining their own hash tables. - The interface in6_pcblookup_hash_locked() is maintained, which allows callers to acquire hash locks and perform one or more lookups atomically with 4-tuple allocation: this is required only for TCPv6, as there is no in6_pcbconnect_setup(), which there should be. - UDPv6 locking remains significantly more conservative than UDPv4 locking, which relates to source address selection. This needs attention, as it likely significantly reduces parallelism in this code for multithreaded socket use (such as in BIND). - In the UDPv4 and UDPv6 multicast cases, we need to revisit locking somewhat, as they relied on ipi_lock to stablise 4-tuple matches, which is no longer sufficient. A second check once the inpcb lock is held should do the trick, keeping the general case from requiring the inpcb lock for every inpcb visited. - This work reminds us that we need to revisit locking of the v4/v6 flags, which may be accessed lock-free both before and after this change. - Right now, a single lock name is used for the pcbhash lock -- this is undesirable, and probably another argument is required to take care of this (or a char array name field in the pcbinfo?). This is not an MFC candidate for 8.x due to its impact on lookup and locking semantics. It's possible some of these issues could be worked around with compatibility wrappers, if necessary.

Modify vnet to use the allocator instead of monolithic global container structures (vinet, ...). This change solves many binary compatibility problems associated with VIMAGE, and restores ELF symbols for virtualized global variables. Each virtualized global variable exists as a "reference copy", and also once per virtual network stack. Virtualized global variables are tagged at compile-time, placing the in a special linker set, which is loaded into a contiguous region of kernel memory. Virtualized global variables in the base kernel are linked as normal, but those in modules are copied and relocated to a reserved portion of the kernel's vnet region with the help of a the kernel linker. Virtualized global variables exist in per-vnet memory set up when the network stack instance is created, and are initialized statically from the reference copy. Run-time access occurs via an accessor macro, which converts from the current vnet and requested symbol to a per-vnet address. When "options VIMAGE" is not compiled into the kernel, normal global ELF symbols will be used instead and indirection is avoided. This change restores static initialization for network stack global variables, restores support for non-global symbols and types, eliminates the need for many subsystem constructors, eliminates large per-subsystem structures that caused many binary compatibility issues both for monitoring applications (netstat) and kernel modules, removes the per-function INIT_VNET_*() macros throughout the stack, eliminates the need for vnet_symmap ksym(2) munging, and eliminates duplicate definitions of virtualized globals under VIMAGE_GLOBALS.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Vnet modules and protocol domains may now register destructor functions to clean up and release per-module state. The destructor mechanisms can be triggered by invoking "vimage -d", or a future equivalent command which will be provided via the new jail framework. While this patch introduces numerous placeholder destructor functions, many of those are currently incomplete, thus leaking memory or (even worse) failing to stop all running timers. Many of such issues are already known and will be incrementaly fixed over the next weeks in smaller incremental commits. Apart from introducing new fields in structs ifnet, domain, protosw and vnet_net, which requires the kernel and modules to be rebuilt, this change should have no impact on nooptions VIMAGE builds, since vnet destructors can only be called in VIMAGE kernels. Moreover, destructor functions should be in general compiled in only in options VIMAGE builds, except for kernel modules which can be safely kldunloaded at run time. Bump __FreeBSD_version to 800097.

This avoids locking overhead for a number of socket system calls when no policies are registered, eliminating measurable overhead for the MAC Framework for the socket subsystem when there are no active policies. Possibly socket locks should be acquired by policies if they are required for socket labels, which would further avoid locking overhead when there are policies but they don't require labeling of sockets, or possibly don't even implement socket controls.

Turning on options VIMAGE at compile time yields the following changes relative to default kernel build: 1) V_ accessor macros for virtualized variables resolve to structure fields via base pointers, instead of being resolved as fields in global structs or plain global variables.

If required, vnet modules can now request the framework to provide them with allocated bzeroed memory by filling in the vmi_size field in their vmi_modinfo structures. 4) structs socket, ifnet, inpcbinfo, tcpcb and syncache_head are extended to hold a pointer to the parent vnet. options VIMAGE builds will fill in those fields as required. 5) curvnet is introduced as a new global variable in options VIMAGE builds, always pointing to the default and only struct vnet. 6) struct sysctl_oid has been extended with additional two fields to store major and minor virtualization module identifiers, oid_v_subs and oid_v_mod. SYSCTL_V_* family of macros will fill in those fields accordingly, and store the offset in the appropriate vnet container struct in oid_arg1. In sysctl handlers dealing with virtualized sysctls, the SYSCTL_RESOLVE_V_ARG1() macro will compute the address of the target variable and make it available in arg1 variable for further processing.

From my notes: ----- One thing where FreeBSD has been falling behind, and which by chance I have some time to work on is "policy based routing", which allows different packet streams to be routed by more than just the destination address. Constraints: ------------ I want to make some form of this available in the 6.x tree (and by extension 7.x) , but FreeBSD in general needs it so I might as well do it in -current and back port the portions I need. One of the ways that this can be done is to have the ability to instantiate multiple kernel routing tables (which I will now refer to as "Forwarding Information Bases" or "FIBs" for political correctness reasons). Which FIB a particular packet uses to make the next hop decision can be decided by a number of mechanisms. The policies these mechanisms implement are the "Policies" referred to in "Policy based routing". One of the constraints I have if I try to back port this work to 6.x is that it must be implemented as a EXTENSION to the existing ABIs in 6.x so that third party applications do not need to be recompiled in timespan of the branch. This first version will not have some of the bells and whistles that will come with later versions. It will, for example, be limited to 16 tables in the first commit. Implementation method, Compatible version. (part 1) ------------------------------- For this reason I have implemented a "sufficient subset" of a multiple routing table solution in Perforce, and back-ported it to 6.x. (also in Perforce though not always caught up with what I have done in -current/P4). The subset allows a number of FIBs to be defined at compile time (8 is sufficient for my purposes in 6.x) and implements the changes needed to allow IPV4 to use them. I have not done the changes for ipv6 simply because I do not need it, and I do not have enough knowledge of ipv6 (e.g. neighbor discovery) needed to do it. Other protocol families are left untouched and should there be users with proprietary protocol families, they should continue to work and be oblivious to the existence of the extra FIBs. To understand how this is done, one must know that the current FIB code starts everything off with a single dimensional array of pointers to FIB head structures (One per protocol family), each of which in turn points to the trie of routes available to that family. The basic change in the ABI compatible version of the change is to extent that array to be a 2 dimensional array, so that instead of protocol family X looking at rt_tables[X] for the table it needs, it looks at rt_tables[Y][X] when for all protocol families except ipv4 Y is always 0. Code that is unaware of the change always just sees the first row of the table, which of course looks just like the one dimensional array that existed before. The entry points rtrequest(), rtalloc(), rtalloc1(), rtalloc_ign() are all maintained, but refer only to the first row of the array, so that existing callers in proprietary protocols can continue to do the "right thing". Some new entry points are added, for the exclusive use of ipv4 code called in_rtrequest(), in_rtalloc(), in_rtalloc1() and in_rtalloc_ign(), which have an extra argument which refers the code to the correct row. In addition, there are some new entry points (currently called rtalloc_fib() and friends) that check the Address family being looked up and call either rtalloc() (and friends) if the protocol is not IPv4 forcing the action to row 0 or to the appropriate row if it IS IPv4 (and that info is available). These are for calling from code that is not specific to any particular protocol. The way these are implemented would change in the non ABI preserving code to be added later. One feature of the first version of the code is that for ipv4, the interface routes show up automatically on all the FIBs, so that no matter what FIB you select you always have the basic direct attached hosts available to you. (rtinit() does this automatically). You CAN delete an interface route from one FIB should you want to but by default it's there. ARP information is also available in each FIB. It's assumed that the same machine would have the same MAC address, regardless of which FIB you are using to get to it. This brings us as to how the correct FIB is selected for an outgoing IPV4 packet. Firstly, all packets have a FIB associated with them. if nothing has been done to change it, it will be FIB 0. The FIB is changed in the following ways. Packets fall into one of a number of classes. 1/ locally generated packets, coming from a socket/PCB. Such packets select a FIB from a number associated with the socket/PCB. This in turn is inherited from the process, but can be changed by a socket option. The process in turn inherits it on fork. I have written a utility call setfib that acts a bit like nice.. setfib -3 ping target.example.com # will use fib 3 for ping. It is an obvious extension to make it a property of a jail but I have not done so. It can be achieved by combining the setfib and jail commands. 2/ packets received on an interface for forwarding. By default these packets would use table 0, (or possibly a number settable in a sysctl(not yet)). but prior to routing the firewall can inspect them (see below). (possibly in the future you may be able to associate a FIB with packets received on an interface.. An ifconfig arg, but not yet.) 3/ packets inspected by a packet classifier, which can arbitrarily associate a fib with it on a packet by packet basis. A fib assigned to a packet by a packet classifier (such as ipfw) would over-ride a fib associated by a more default source. (such as cases 1 or 2). 4/ a tcp listen socket associated with a fib will generate accept sockets that are associated with that same fib. 5/ Packets generated in response to some other packet (e.g. reset or icmp packets). These should use the FIB associated with the packet being reponded to. 6/ Packets generated during encapsulation. gif, tun and other tunnel interfaces will encapsulate using the FIB that was in effect withthe proces that set up the tunnel. thus setfib 1 ifconfig gif0 [tunnel instructions] will set the fib for the tunnel to use to be fib 1. Routing messages would be associated with their process, and thus select one FIB or another. messages from the kernel would be associated with the fib they refer to and would only be received by a routing socket associated with that fib. (not yet implemented) In addition Netstat has been edited to be able to cope with the fact that the array is now 2 dimensional. (It looks in system memory using libkvm (!)). Old versions of netstat see only the first FIB. In addition two sysctls are added to give: a) the number of FIBs compiled in (active) b) the default FIB of the calling process. Early testing experience: ------------------------- Basically our (IronPort's) appliance does this functionality already using ipfw fwd but that method has some drawbacks. For example, It can't fully simulate a routing table because it can't influence the socket's choice of local address when a connect() is done. Testing during the generating of these changes has been remarkably smooth so far. Multiple tables have co-existed with no notable side effects, and packets have been routes accordingly. ipfw has grown 2 new keywords: setfib N ip from anay to any count ip from any to any fib N In pf there seems to be a requirement to be able to give symbolic names to the fibs but I do not have that capacity. I am not sure if it is required. SCTP has interestingly enough built in support for this, called VRFs in Cisco parlance. it will be interesting to see how that handles it when it suddenly actually does something. Where to next: -------------------- After committing the ABI compatible version and MFCing it, I'd like to proceed in a forward direction in -current. this will result in some roto-tilling in the routing code. Firstly: the current code's idea of having a separate tree per protocol family, all of the same format, and pointed to by the 1 dimensional array is a bit silly. Especially when one considers that there is code that makes assumptions about every protocol having the same internal structures there. Some protocols don't WANT that sort of structure. (for example the whole idea of a netmask is foreign to appletalk). This needs to be made opaque to the external code. My suggested first change is to add routing method pointers to the 'domain' structure, along with information pointing the data. instead of having an array of pointers to uniform structures, there would be an array pointing to the 'domain' structures for each protocol address domain (protocol family), and the methods this reached would be called. The methods would have an argument that gives FIB number, but the protocol would be free to ignore it. When the ABI can be changed it raises the possibilty of the addition of a fib entry into the "struct route". Currently, the structure contains the sockaddr of the desination, and the resulting fib entry. To make this work fully, one could add a fib number so that given an address and a fib, one can find the third element, the fib entry. Interaction with the ARP layer/ LL layer would need to be revisited as well. Qing Li has been working on this already.
