Toshiaki Makita says: ==================== Stacked vlan TSO On the basis of Netdev 0.1 discussion[1], I made a patch set to enable TSO for packets with multiple vlans. Currently, packets with multiple vlans are always segmented by software, which is caused by that netif_skb_features() drops most feature flags for multiple tagged packets. To allow NICs to segment them, we need to get rid of that check from core. Fortunately, recently introduced ndo_features_check() can be used to move the check to each driver, and this patch set is based on the idea. For the initial patch set, I chose 3 drivers, bonding, team, and igb, as candidates to enable TSO. I tested them and confirmed they works fine with this change. Here are samples of performance test results. As I expected, %sys gets pretty lower than before. * TEST1: vlan (.1Q) on vlan (.1ad) on igb (I350) - before $ netperf -t TCP_STREAM -H 192.168.10.1 -l 60 Recv Send Send Socket Socket Message Elapsed Size Size Size Time Throughput bytes bytes bytes secs. 10^6bits/sec 87380 16384 16384 60.02 933.72 Average: CPU %user %nice %system %iowait %steal %idle Average: all 0.13 0.00 11.28 0.01 0.00 88.58 - after $ netperf -t TCP_STREAM -H 192.168.10.1 -l 60 Recv Send Send Socket Socket Message Elapsed Size Size Size Time Throughput bytes bytes bytes secs. 10^6bits/sec 87380 16384 16384 60.01 936.13 Average: CPU %user %nice %system %iowait %steal %idle Average: all 0.24 0.00 4.17 0.01 0.00 95.58 * TEST2: vlan (.1Q) on bridge (.1ad vlan filtering) on team on igb (I350) - before $ netperf -t TCP_STREAM -H 192.168.10.1 -l 60 Recv Send Send Socket Socket Message Elapsed Size Size Size Time Throughput bytes bytes bytes secs. 10^6bits/sec 87380 16384 16384 60.01 936.28 Average: CPU %user %nice %system %iowait %steal %idle Average: all 0.41 0.00 11.57 0.01 0.00 88.01 - after $ netperf -t TCP_STREAM -H 192.168.10.1 -l 60 Recv Send Send Socket Socket Message Elapsed Size Size Size Time Throughput bytes bytes bytes secs. 10^6bits/sec 87380 16384 16384 60.02 935.72 Average: CPU %user %nice %system %iowait %steal %idle Average: all 0.14 0.00 7.66 0.01 0.00 92.19 In addition to above, I tested these configurations: - vlan (.1Q) on vlan (1.ad) on bonding on igb (I350) - vlan (.1Q) on vlan (1.Q) on igb (I350) - vlan (.1Q) on vlan (1.Q) on team on igb (I350) And didn't find any problem.
