10 years agoRemove mpls_depth field from flow
Simon Horman [Thu, 26 Sep 2013 21:55:19 +0000 (06:55 +0900)]
Remove mpls_depth field from flow

Rather than tracking the MPLS depth as a field in the
flow, which is an entirely poor place for it, just track
the delta to the MPLS depth during translation.

This logic was developed while implementing recirculation
and intended to be used to detect when recirculation should
occur. This variant of the patch uses the logic to determine
if processing of actions should stop due to an MPLS
action which cannot be translated (without recirculation).

A side-effect of this patch is that it resolves a bug
whereby ovs-vswitchd will abort due to to an assertion
on eth_type_mpls(ctx->xin->flow.dl_type) in compose_mpls_pop_action(()
if the actions of a flow include pop_mpls twice without
a push_mpls in between.

classifier: Speed up lookup when metadata partitions the flow table.

We have a controller that puts many rules with different metadata values
into the flow table, where metadata is used (by "resubmit"s) to distinguish
stages in a pipeline.  Thus, any given flow only needs to be hashed into
classifier "cls_table"s that contain a match for the flow's metadata value.
This commit optimizes the classifier lookup by (probabilistically) skipping
the "cls_table"s that can't possibly match.

(The "metadata" referred to here is the OpenFlow 1.1+ "metadata" field,

10 years agodatapath: Move segmentation compatibility code into a compatibility function
Simon Horman [Tue, 24 Sep 2013 07:44:06 +0000 (16:44 +0900)]
datapath: Move segmentation compatibility code into a compatibility function

Move segmentation compatibility code out of netdev_send and into
rpl_dev_queue_xmit(), a compatibility function used in place
of dev_queue_xmit() as necessary.

As suggested by Jesse Gross.

Some minor though verbose implementation notes:

* This rpl_dev_queue_xmit() endeavours to return a valid error code or
  zero on success as per dev_queue_xmit(). The exception is that when
  dev_queue_xmit() is called in a loop only the status of the last call is
  taken into account, thus ignoring any errors returned by previous calls.
  This is derived from the previous calls to dev_queue_xmit() in a loop
  where netdev_send() ignores the return value of dev_queue_xmit()
  entirely.

* netdev_send() continues to ignore the value of dev_queue_xmit().
  So the discussion of the return value of rpl_dev_queue_xmit()
  above is has no bearing on run-time behaviour.

* The return value of netdev_send() may differ from the previous
  implementation in the case where segmentation is performed before
  calling the real dev_queue_xmit(). This is because previously in
  this case netdev_send() would return the combined length of the
  skbs resulting from segmentation. Whereas the current code
  always returns the length of the original skb.

a hash table based on hashes of their flows, processed them, and then
forwarded them in hash order.  Usually this maintains order within a single

Testing included confirming both mega-flows and non-megaflows are
properly parsed. Bit masks are applied in the case of mega-flows
prior to aggregation.  Test --script parameter which runs in

  - add ovs-dpctl-top to debian distribution

killed ovsdb-server with SIGSEGV twice.  Each time, the "--monitor" option
caused the supervisor process to restart the child, but the second time it
incurred a 10-second delay intended to prevent the daemon from wasting CPU
time by restarting itself and dying again very quickly in a loop.  This

approximately 10 seconds before it decides that the condition that it is
testing for will never occur.
