18 years agoe1000: add dynamic itr modes
Jesse Brandeburg [Wed, 1 Nov 2006 16:48:13 +0000 (08:48 -0800)]
e1000: add dynamic itr modes

Add a new dynamic itr algorithm, with 2 modes, and make it the default
operation mode. This greatly reduces latency and increases small packet
performance, at the "cost" of some CPU utilization. Bulk traffic
throughput is unaffected.

The driver can limit the amount of interrupts per second that the
adapter will generate for incoming packets. It does this by writing a
value to the adapter that is based on the maximum amount of interrupts
that the adapter will generate per second.

Setting InterruptThrottleRate to a value greater or equal to 100 will
program the adapter to send out a maximum of that many interrupts per
second, even if more packets have come in. This reduces interrupt
load on the system and can lower CPU utilization under heavy load,
but will increase latency as packets are not processed as quickly.

The default behaviour of the driver previously assumed a static
InterruptThrottleRate value of 8000, providing a good fallback value
for all traffic types,but lacking in small packet performance and
latency. The hardware can handle many more small packets per second
however, and for this reason an adaptive interrupt moderation algorithm
was implemented.

Since 7.3.x, the driver has two adaptive modes (setting 1 or 3) in
which it dynamically adjusts the InterruptThrottleRate value based on
the traffic that it receives. After determining the type of incoming
traffic in the last timeframe, it will adjust the InterruptThrottleRate
to an appropriate value for that traffic.

The algorithm classifies the incoming traffic every interval into
classes.  Once the class is determined, the InterruptThrottleRate
value is adjusted to suit that traffic type the best. There are
three classes defined: "Bulk traffic", for large amounts of packets
of normal size; "Low latency", for small amounts of traffic and/or
a significant percentage of small packets; and "Lowest latency",
for almost completely small packets or minimal traffic.

In dynamic conservative mode, the InterruptThrottleRate value is
set to 4000 for traffic that falls in class "Bulk traffic". If
traffic falls in the "Low latency" or "Lowest latency" class, the
InterruptThrottleRate is increased stepwise to 20000. This default
mode is suitable for most applications.

For situations where low latency is vital such as cluster or
grid computing, the algorithm can reduce latency even more when
InterruptThrottleRate is set to mode 1. In this mode, which operates
the same as mode 3, the InterruptThrottleRate will be increased
stepwise to 70000 for traffic in class "Lowest latency".

Setting InterruptThrottleRate to 0 turns off any interrupt moderation
and may improve small packet latency, but is generally not suitable
for bulk throughput traffic.

[PATCH] ieee80211: Drop and count duplicate data frames to remove 'replay detected' log messages

In the SoftMAC version of the IEEE 802.11 stack, not all duplicate messages are
detected. For the most part, there is no difficulty; however for TKIP and CCMP
encryption, the duplicates result in a "replay detected" log message where the
received and previous values of the TSC are identical. This change adds a new
variable to the ieee80211_device structure that holds the 'seq_ctl' value for
the previous frame. When a new frame repeats the value, the frame is dropped and
the appropriate counter is incremented.

[PATCH] beginning of 8390 fixes - generic and arm/etherh

etherh and a handful of other odd drivers use different macros when building
8390.c.  Since we generate a single 8390.o and then link with it, in any
config with both oddball and normal 8390-based driver we will end up with
breakage in at least one of them.  Solution: take most of 8390.c into
lib8390.c and have 8390.c, etherh.c and the rest of oddballs #include it.
Helper macros are taken from 8390.h to whoever includes lib8390.c.  That
way odd drivers get separate instances of compiled 8390 stuff and stop
stepping on each other's toes.  8390.h gets cleaned up - we don't have
the cascade of ifdefs in there and are left with the stuff that can be
used by any 8390-based driver.  Current problems are exactly because of
that cascade - we attempt to choose the set of helpers by looking at config
and that, of course, doesn't work well when we have several sets needed
by various drivers in our config.

[PATCH] 2.6.18: sb1250-mac: Phylib IRQ handling fixes

 This patch fixes a couple of problems discovered with interrupt handling
in the phylib core, namely:

1. The driver uses timer and workqueue calls, but does not include
   <linux/timer.h> nor <linux/workqueue.h>.

2. The driver uses schedule_work() for handling interrupts, but does not
   make sure any pending work scheduled thus has been completed before
   driver's structures get freed from memory.  This is especially
   important as interrupts may keep arriving if the line is shared with
   another PHY.

   The solution is to ignore phy_interrupt() calls if the reported device
   has already been halted and calling flush_scheduled_work() from
   phy_stop_interrupts() (but guarded with current_is_keventd() in case
   the function has been called through keventd from the MAC device's
   close call to avoid a deadlock on the netlink lock).
