Anatoly Burakov [Tue, 13 Mar 2018 17:42:40 +0000 (17:42 +0000)]
eal: ignore IPC messages until init is complete

If we receive messages that don't have a callback registered for
them, and we haven't finished initialization yet, it can be reasonably
inferred that we shouldn't have gotten the message in the first
place. Therefore, send requester a special message telling them to
ignore response to this request, as if this process wasn't there.

Since it is not possible for primary process to receive any messages
during initialization, this change in practice only applies to
secondary processes.

meter: add configuration profile

This patch adds support for meter configuration profiles.
Benefits: simplified configuration procedure, improved performance.

Q1: What is the configuration profile and why does it make sense?
A1: The configuration profile represents the set of configuration
    parameters for a given meter object, such as the rates and sizes for
    the token buckets. The configuration profile concept makes sense when
    many meter objects share the same configuration, which is the typical
    usage model: thousands of traffic flows are each individually metered
    according to just a few service levels (i.e. profiles).

Q2: How is the configuration profile improving the performance?
A2: The performance improvement is achieved by reducing the memory
    footprint of a meter object, which results in better cache utilization
    for the typical case when large arrays of meter objects are used. The
    internal data structures stored for each meter object contain:
       a) Constant fields: Low level translation of the configuration
          parameters that does not change post-configuration. This is
          really duplicated for all meters that use the same
          configuration. This is the configuration profile data that is
          moved away from the meter object. Current size (implementation
          dependent): srTCM = 32 bytes, trTCM = 32 bytes.
       b) Variable fields: Time stamps and running counters that change
          during the on-going traffic metering process. Current size
          (implementation dependent): srTCM = 24 bytes, trTCM = 32 bytes.
          Therefore, by moving the constant fields to a separate profile
          data structure shared by all the meters with the same
          configuration, the size of the meter object is reduced by ~50%.

with a "File exists" error. In less recent kernels (e.g. version 4.4) the

DEV_UNDEFINED.

Fail-safe dev_configure() operation calls to its sub-devices
dev_configure() operation, but only for sub-devices which are in
DEV_PROBED state, means that sub-devices which are in DEV_ACTIVE state
because the application triggered dev_stop() operation cannot be
reconfigured again by dev_configure() operation which is really
problematic when application wants to reconfigure its ports.
Actually, the application may get success report when some of the
sub-devices are not in the wanted configuration.

The current behavior of fail-safe dev_configure() is correct only for
the first time dev_configure() is triggered by the application or for
sub-device synchronization in plug-in event, but it ignores the option
for reconfiguration from application side.

Allow calling to sub-devices dev_configure() operations also in
DEV_ACTIVE state when the call was triggered by the application.

net/failsafe: fix hotplug races

Fail-safe uses a periodic alarm mechanism, running from the host
thread, to manage the hot-plug events of its sub-devices. This
management requires a lot of sub-devices PMDs operations
(stop, close, start, configure, etc.).

While the hot-plug alarm runs in the host thread, the application may
call fail-safe operations, which directly trigger the sub-devices PMDs
operations as well. This call may occur from any thread decided by the
application (probably the master thread).

Thus, more than one operation can be executed to a sub-device at the
same time. This can initiate a lot of races in the sub-PMDs.

Moreover, some control operations update the fail-safe internal
databases, which can be used by the alarm mechanism at the same time.
This can also initiate races and crashes.

Fail-safe is the owner of its sub-devices and must synchronize their
use according to the ETHDEV ownership rules.

Synchronize hot-plug management by a new lock mechanism uses a mutex to
atomically defend each critical section in the fail-safe hot-plug
mechanism and control operations to prevent any races between them.

net/failsafe: fix removal scope

The fail-safe PMD uses a per sub-device flag called "remove" to
indicate the scope where the sub-device was removed physically and
whether its software resources should be released.

This flag is set when the fail-safe receives an RMV notification
about the physical removal of the sub-device, and should be unset when
all the sub-device resources are released.

The previous code wrongly unsets the flag in dev_configure(), instead
of when the software resources release is completed.

back to activity following a plug-in event.

Fail-safe sets a flag called "pending_alarm" to validate that only one
alarm callback is pending at any time. While this flag is required to
avoid simultaneous initiations of the alarm thread - it should not be

The struct rte_eth_dev_data is used in ethdev fastpath routines
and it not aligned to cache line size. This patch fixes the ethdev
data alignment.

The alignment was broken from the "first public release" changeset
where ethdev data address was aligned only to the first port.
Remaining ports alignment was defined by the size of the struct
(rte_eth_dev_data). This scheme is not guaranteed to be cache line
aligned all the time.

"ethdev: add port ownership" change set introduced a
rte_eth_dev_shared_data container for port ownership change,
This resulted in rte_eth_dev->data memory for the first port also
as cache unaligned.

Added a compiler alignment attribute to make sure
rte_eth_dev->data always cache aligned so that CPU/compiler
1) Avoid sharing the element with another cache line
2) Can load/store the elements in struct rte_eth_dev_data as
naturally aligned.
