Subject: [PATCH RFC 1/4] virtio-net: support transmit hash report
From: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@...gle.com>
Virtio-net supports sharing the flow hash from device to driver on rx.
Do the same in the other direction for robust routing and telemetry.
Linux derives ipv6 flowlabel and ECMP multipath from sk->sk_txhash,
and updates this field on error with sk_rethink_txhash. Allow the host
stack to do the same.
Concrete examples of error conditions that are resolved are
mentioned in the commits that add sk_rethink_txhash calls. Such as
commit 7788174e8726 ("tcp: change IPv6 flow-label upon receiving
spurious retransmission").
Experimental results mirror what the theory suggests: where IPv6
FlowLabel is included in path selection (e.g., LAG/ECMP), flowlabel
rotation on TCP timeout avoids the vast majority of TCP disconnects
that would otherwise have occurred during link failures in long-haul
backbones, when an alternative path is available.
Rotation can be applied to various bad connection signals, such as
timeouts and spurious retransmissions. In aggregate, such flow level
signals can help locate network issues. Reserve field hash_state to
share this info. For now, always set VIRTIO_NET_HASH_STATE_DEFAULT.
Passing information between TCP stack and driver is future work.
Changes RFC->RFCv2
- drop unused VIRTIO_NET_HASH_STATE_TIMEOUT_BIT
- convert from cpu_to_virtioXX to cpu_to_leXX
