Subject: [PATCH net-next v2 4/6] packet: rollover lock contention avoidance
From: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@...gle.com>
Rollover has to call packet_rcv_has_room on sockets in the fanout
group to find a socket to migrate to. This operation is expensive
especially if the packet sockets use rings, when a lock has to be
acquired.
Avoid pounding on the lock by all sockets by temporarily marking a
socket as "under memory pressure" when such pressure is detected.
While set, only the socket owner may call packet_rcv_has_room on the
socket. Once it detects normal conditions, it clears the flag. The
socket is not used as a victim by any other socket in the meantime.
Under reasonably balanced load, each socket writer frequently calls
packet_rcv_has_room and clears its own pressure field. As a backup
for when the socket is rarely written to, also clear the flag on
reading (packet_recvmsg, packet_poll) if this can be done cheaply
(i.e., without calling packet_rcv_has_room). This is only for
edge cases.
Tested:
Ran bench_rollover: a process with 8 sockets in a single fanout
group, each pinned to a single cpu that receives one nic recv
interrupt. RPS and RFS are disabled. The benchmark uses packet
rx_ring, which has to take a lock when determining whether a
socket has room.
Sent 3.5 Mpps of UDP traffic with sufficient entropy to spread
uniformly across the packet sockets (and inserted an iptables
rule to drop in PREROUTING to avoid protocol stack processing).
Without this patch, all sockets try to migrate traffic to
neighbors, causing lock contention when searching for a non-
empty neighbor. The lock is the top 9 entries.

+ 1.55% bench_rollover [kernel.kallsyms] [k] packet_rcv_has_room.isra.41
On net-next with this patch, this lock contention is no longer a
top entry. Most time is spent in the actual read function. Next up
are other locks:
+ 15.52% bench_rollover bench_rollover [.] reader
+ 4.68% swapper [kernel.kallsyms] [k] memcpy_erms
+ 2.77% swapper [kernel.kallsyms] [k] packet_lookup_frame.isra.51
+ 2.56% ksoftirqd/1 [kernel.kallsyms] [k] memcpy_erms
+ 2.16% swapper [kernel.kallsyms] [k] tpacket_rcv
+ 1.93% swapper [kernel.kallsyms] [k] mlx4_en_process_rx_cq
Looking closer at the remaining _raw_spin_lock, the cost of probing
in rollover is now comparable to the cost of taking the lock later
in tpacket_rcv.
