Update netisr handling; Each SWI now registers its queue, and all queue drain routines are done by swi_net, which allows for better queue control at some future point. Packets may also be directly dispatched to a netisr instead of queued, this may be of interest at some installations, but currently defaults to off.

/*-
Reimplement the netisr framework in order to support parallel netisr threads: - Support up to one netisr thread per CPU, each processings its own workstream, or set of per-protocol queues. Threads may be bound to specific CPUs, or allowed to migrate, based on a global policy. In the future it would be desirable to support topology-centric policies, such as "one netisr per package". - Allow each protocol to advertise an ordering policy, which can currently be one of: NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE: packets must maintain ordering with respect to an implicit or explicit source (such as an interface or socket). NETISR_POLICY_FLOW: make use of mbuf flow identifiers to place work, as well as allowing protocols to provide a flow generation function for mbufs without flow identifers (m2flow). Falls back on NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE if now flow ID is available. NETISR_POLICY_CPU: allow protocols to inspect and assign a CPU for each packet handled by netisr (m2cpuid). - Provide utility functions for querying the number of workstreams being used, as well as a mapping function from workstream to CPU ID, which protocols may use in work placement decisions. - Add explicit interfaces to get and set per-protocol queue limits, and get and clear drop counters, which query data or apply changes across all workstreams. - Add a more extensible netisr registration interface, in which protocols declare 'struct netisr_handler' structures for each registered NETISR_ type. These include name, handler function, optional mbuf to flow ID function, optional mbuf to CPU ID function, queue limit, and ordering policy. Padding is present to allow these to be expanded in the future. If no queue limit is declared, then a default is used. - Queue limits are now per-workstream, and raised from the previous IFQ_MAXLEN default of 50 to 256. - All protocols are updated to use the new registration interface, and with the exception of netnatm, default queue limits. Most protocols register as NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE, except IPv4 and IPv6, which use NETISR_POLICY_FLOW, and will therefore take advantage of driver- generated flow IDs if present. - Formalize a non-packet based interface between interface polling and the netisr, rather than having polling pretend to be two protocols. Provide two explicit hooks in the netisr worker for start and end events for runs: netisr_poll() and netisr_pollmore(), as well as a function, netisr_sched_poll(), to allow the polling code to schedule netisr execution. DEVICE_POLLING still embeds single-netisr assumptions in its implementation, so for now if it is compiled into the kernel, a single and un-bound netisr thread is enforced regardless of tunable configuration. In the default configuration, the new netisr implementation maintains the same basic assumptions as the previous implementation: a single, un-bound worker thread processes all deferred work, and direct dispatch is enabled by default wherever possible. Performance measurement shows a marginal performance improvement over the old implementation due to the use of batched dequeue. An rmlock is used to synchronize use and registration/unregistration using the framework; currently, synchronized use is disabled (replicating current netisr policy) due to a measurable 3%-6% hit in ping-pong micro-benchmarking. It will be enabled once further rmlock optimization has taken place. However, in practice, netisrs are rarely registered or unregistered at runtime. A new man page for netisr will follow, but since one doesn't currently exist, it hasn't been updated. This change is not appropriate for MFC, although the polling shutdown handler should be merged to 7-STABLE. Bump __FreeBSD_version. Reviewed by: bz

Rework netisr policy mechanism so that per-protocol dispatch policies can be represented: - A single policy namespace is defined, consisting of four possible policies: "default" to use the global default, "deferred" to force deferred dispatch, "direct" to employ direct dispatch where possible, and "hybrid" which makes a dynamic decision based on CPU affinity, ordering, etc. Routines are implemented to convert between strings and an integer namespace. - A new global variable, netisr_dispatch_policy, subsumes existing global variables for direct dispatch, forced direct dispatch, etc, and is used for explicit policy interpretation and composition. Old variables remain so that they can be exported by legacy sysctls for use by old netstat(1) binaries. A new sysctl and tunable, netisr.dispatch.policy, accepts the above strings for specifying a global policy default. - The protocol registration structure, netisr_handler, grows an nh_dispatch field, which accepts a per-policy policy override. The default value is '0', which corresponds to "default", meaning that protocols will accept the global default policy unless otherwise specified. - Policies are now interpreted and composed explicitly at various points in packet dispatch; protocol policies override global policies. - Protocols grow the ability to express a non-opinion about affinity even when implenting m2cpuid by returning NETISR_CPUID_NONE. In that case, the framework falls back on source ordering, rather than simply using the current CPU. These changes are in support of allowing link layer re-dispatch based on RSS or similar hashes provided by NICs, especially in the case where the number of hardware receive queues matches hardware core count, rather than hardware thread count, requiring further software redistributeon.

Reimplement the netisr framework in order to support parallel netisr threads: - Support up to one netisr thread per CPU, each processings its own workstream, or set of per-protocol queues. Threads may be bound to specific CPUs, or allowed to migrate, based on a global policy. In the future it would be desirable to support topology-centric policies, such as "one netisr per package". - Allow each protocol to advertise an ordering policy, which can currently be one of: NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE: packets must maintain ordering with respect to an implicit or explicit source (such as an interface or socket). NETISR_POLICY_FLOW: make use of mbuf flow identifiers to place work, as well as allowing protocols to provide a flow generation function for mbufs without flow identifers (m2flow). Falls back on NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE if now flow ID is available. NETISR_POLICY_CPU: allow protocols to inspect and assign a CPU for each packet handled by netisr (m2cpuid). - Provide utility functions for querying the number of workstreams being used, as well as a mapping function from workstream to CPU ID, which protocols may use in work placement decisions. - Add explicit interfaces to get and set per-protocol queue limits, and get and clear drop counters, which query data or apply changes across all workstreams. - Add a more extensible netisr registration interface, in which protocols declare 'struct netisr_handler' structures for each registered NETISR_ type. These include name, handler function, optional mbuf to flow ID function, optional mbuf to CPU ID function, queue limit, and ordering policy. Padding is present to allow these to be expanded in the future. If no queue limit is declared, then a default is used. - Queue limits are now per-workstream, and raised from the previous IFQ_MAXLEN default of 50 to 256. - All protocols are updated to use the new registration interface, and with the exception of netnatm, default queue limits. Most protocols register as NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE, except IPv4 and IPv6, which use NETISR_POLICY_FLOW, and will therefore take advantage of driver- generated flow IDs if present. - Formalize a non-packet based interface between interface polling and the netisr, rather than having polling pretend to be two protocols. Provide two explicit hooks in the netisr worker for start and end events for runs: netisr_poll() and netisr_pollmore(), as well as a function, netisr_sched_poll(), to allow the polling code to schedule netisr execution. DEVICE_POLLING still embeds single-netisr assumptions in its implementation, so for now if it is compiled into the kernel, a single and un-bound netisr thread is enforced regardless of tunable configuration. In the default configuration, the new netisr implementation maintains the same basic assumptions as the previous implementation: a single, un-bound worker thread processes all deferred work, and direct dispatch is enabled by default wherever possible. Performance measurement shows a marginal performance improvement over the old implementation due to the use of batched dequeue. An rmlock is used to synchronize use and registration/unregistration using the framework; currently, synchronized use is disabled (replicating current netisr policy) due to a measurable 3%-6% hit in ping-pong micro-benchmarking. It will be enabled once further rmlock optimization has taken place. However, in practice, netisrs are rarely registered or unregistered at runtime.

Change the default disposition of debug.mpsafenet from 0 to 1, which will cause the network stack to operate without the Giant lock by default. This change has the potential to improve performance by increasing parallelism and decreasing latency in network processing. Due to the potential exposure of existing or new bugs, the following compatibility functionality is maintained: - It is still possible to disable Giant-free operation by setting debug.mpsafenet to 0 in loader.conf. - Add "options NET_WITH_GIANT", which will restore the default value of debug.mpsafenet to 0, and is intended for use on systems compiled with known unsafe components, or where a more conservative configuration is desired. - Add a new declaration, NET_NEEDS_GIANT("componentname"), which permits kernel components to declare dependence on Giant over the network stack. If the declaration is made by a preloaded module or a compiled in component, the disposition of debug.mpsafenet will be set to 0 and a warning concerning performance degraded operation printed to the console. If it is declared by a loadable kernel module after boot, a warning is displayed but the disposition cannot be changed. This is implemented by defining a new SYSINIT() value, SI_SUB_SETTINGS, which is intended for the processing of configuration choices after tunables are read in and the console is available to generate errors, but before much else gets going. This compatibility behavior will go away when we've finished the last of the locking work and are confident that operation is correct.

Performance measurement shows a marginal performance improvement over the old implementation due to the use of batched dequeue. An rmlock is used to synchronize use and registration/unregistration using the framework; currently, synchronized use is disabled (replicating current netisr policy) due to a measurable 3%-6% hit in ping-pong micro-benchmarking.

Changes to support crashdump analysis of netisr: - Rename the netisr protocol registration array, 'np' to 'netisr_proto', in order to reduce the chances of symbol name collisions. It remains statically defined, but it will be looked up by netstat(1). - Move certain internal structure definitions from netisr.c to netisr_internal.h so that netstat(1) can find them. They remain private, and should not be used for any other purpose (for example, they should not be used by kernel modules, which must instead use the public interfaces in netisr.h). - Store a kernel-compiled version of NETISR_MAXPROT in the global variable netisr_maxprot, and export via a sysctl, so that it is available for use by netstat(1). This is especially important for crashdump interpretation, where the size of the workstream structure is determined by the maximum number of protocols compiled into the kernel.

Rework netisr policy mechanism so that per-protocol dispatch policies can be represented: - A single policy namespace is defined, consisting of four possible policies: "default" to use the global default, "deferred" to force deferred dispatch, "direct" to employ direct dispatch where possible, and "hybrid" which makes a dynamic decision based on CPU affinity, ordering, etc. Routines are implemented to convert between strings and an integer namespace. - A new global variable, netisr_dispatch_policy, subsumes existing global variables for direct dispatch, forced direct dispatch, etc, and is used for explicit policy interpretation and composition. Old variables remain so that they can be exported by legacy sysctls for use by old netstat(1) binaries. A new sysctl and tunable, netisr.dispatch.policy, accepts the above strings for specifying a global policy default. - The protocol registration structure, netisr_handler, grows an nh_dispatch field, which accepts a per-policy policy override. The default value is '0', which corresponds to "default", meaning that protocols will accept the global default policy unless otherwise specified. - Policies are now interpreted and composed explicitly at various points in packet dispatch; protocol policies override global policies. - Protocols grow the ability to express a non-opinion about affinity even when implenting m2cpuid by returning NETISR_CPUID_NONE. In that case, the framework falls back on source ordering, rather than simply using the current CPU. These changes are in support of allowing link layer re-dispatch based on RSS or similar hashes provided by NICs, especially in the case where the number of hardware receive queues matches hardware core count, rather than hardware thread count, requiring further software redistributeon.

NETISR_POLICY_FLOW: make use of mbuf flow identifiers to place work, as well as allowing protocols to provide a flow generation function for mbufs without flow identifers (m2flow). Falls back on NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE if now flow ID is available. NETISR_POLICY_CPU: allow protocols to inspect and assign a CPU for each packet handled by netisr (m2cpuid). - Provide utility functions for querying the number of workstreams being used, as well as a mapping function from workstream to CPU ID, which protocols may use in work placement decisions. - Add explicit interfaces to get and set per-protocol queue limits, and get and clear drop counters, which query data or apply changes across all workstreams. - Add a more extensible netisr registration interface, in which protocols declare 'struct netisr_handler' structures for each registered NETISR_ type. These include name, handler function, optional mbuf to flow ID function, optional mbuf to CPU ID function, queue limit, and ordering policy. Padding is present to allow these to be expanded in the future. If no queue limit is declared, then a default is used. - Queue limits are now per-workstream, and raised from the previous IFQ_MAXLEN default of 50 to 256. - All protocols are updated to use the new registration interface, and with the exception of netnatm, default queue limits. Most protocols register as NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE, except IPv4 and IPv6, which use NETISR_POLICY_FLOW, and will therefore take advantage of driver- generated flow IDs if present. - Formalize a non-packet based interface between interface polling and the netisr, rather than having polling pretend to be two protocols.

Threads may be bound to specific CPUs, or allowed to migrate, based on a global policy. In the future it would be desirable to support topology-centric policies, such as "one netisr per package". - Allow each protocol to advertise an ordering policy, which can currently be one of: NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE: packets must maintain ordering with respect to an implicit or explicit source (such as an interface or socket). NETISR_POLICY_FLOW: make use of mbuf flow identifiers to place work, as well as allowing protocols to provide a flow generation function for mbufs without flow identifers (m2flow). Falls back on NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE if now flow ID is available. NETISR_POLICY_CPU: allow protocols to inspect and assign a CPU for each packet handled by netisr (m2cpuid). - Provide utility functions for querying the number of workstreams being used, as well as a mapping function from workstream to CPU ID, which protocols may use in work placement decisions. - Add explicit interfaces to get and set per-protocol queue limits, and get and clear drop counters, which query data or apply changes across all workstreams. - Add a more extensible netisr registration interface, in which protocols declare 'struct netisr_handler' structures for each registered NETISR_ type. These include name, handler function, optional mbuf to flow ID function, optional mbuf to CPU ID function, queue limit, and ordering policy. Padding is present to allow these to be expanded in the future.

Most protocols register as NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE, except IPv4 and IPv6, which use NETISR_POLICY_FLOW, and will therefore take advantage of driver- generated flow IDs if present. - Formalize a non-packet based interface between interface polling and the netisr, rather than having polling pretend to be two protocols.

In the future it would be desirable to support topology-centric policies, such as "one netisr per package". - Allow each protocol to advertise an ordering policy, which can currently be one of: NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE: packets must maintain ordering with respect to an implicit or explicit source (such as an interface or socket). NETISR_POLICY_FLOW: make use of mbuf flow identifiers to place work, as well as allowing protocols to provide a flow generation function for mbufs without flow identifers (m2flow). Falls back on NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE if now flow ID is available. NETISR_POLICY_CPU: allow protocols to inspect and assign a CPU for each packet handled by netisr (m2cpuid). - Provide utility functions for querying the number of workstreams being used, as well as a mapping function from workstream to CPU ID, which protocols may use in work placement decisions. - Add explicit interfaces to get and set per-protocol queue limits, and get and clear drop counters, which query data or apply changes across all workstreams. - Add a more extensible netisr registration interface, in which protocols declare 'struct netisr_handler' structures for each registered NETISR_ type. These include name, handler function, optional mbuf to flow ID function, optional mbuf to CPU ID function, queue limit, and ordering policy. Padding is present to allow these to be expanded in the future. If no queue limit is declared, then a default is used. - Queue limits are now per-workstream, and raised from the previous IFQ_MAXLEN default of 50 to 256. - All protocols are updated to use the new registration interface, and with the exception of netnatm, default queue limits. Most protocols register as NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE, except IPv4 and IPv6, which use NETISR_POLICY_FLOW, and will therefore take advantage of driver- generated flow IDs if present. - Formalize a non-packet based interface between interface polling and the netisr, rather than having polling pretend to be two protocols. Provide two explicit hooks in the netisr worker for start and end events for runs: netisr_poll() and netisr_pollmore(), as well as a function, netisr_sched_poll(), to allow the polling code to schedule netisr execution. DEVICE_POLLING still embeds single-netisr assumptions in its implementation, so for now if it is compiled into the kernel, a single and un-bound netisr thread is enforced regardless of tunable configuration. In the default configuration, the new netisr implementation maintains the same basic assumptions as the previous implementation: a single, un-bound worker thread processes all deferred work, and direct dispatch is enabled by default wherever possible. Performance measurement shows a marginal performance improvement over the old implementation due to the use of batched dequeue. An rmlock is used to synchronize use and registration/unregistration using the framework; currently, synchronized use is disabled (replicating current netisr policy) due to a measurable 3%-6% hit in ping-pong micro-benchmarking.

Provide two explicit hooks in the netisr worker for start and end events for runs: netisr_poll() and netisr_pollmore(), as well as a function, netisr_sched_poll(), to allow the polling code to schedule netisr execution. DEVICE_POLLING still embeds single-netisr assumptions in its implementation, so for now if it is compiled into the kernel, a single and un-bound netisr thread is enforced regardless of tunable configuration. In the default configuration, the new netisr implementation maintains the same basic assumptions as the previous implementation: a single, un-bound worker thread processes all deferred work, and direct dispatch is enabled by default wherever possible. Performance measurement shows a marginal performance improvement over the old implementation due to the use of batched dequeue. An rmlock is used to synchronize use and registration/unregistration using the framework; currently, synchronized use is disabled (replicating current netisr policy) due to a measurable 3%-6% hit in ping-pong micro-benchmarking. It will be enabled once further rmlock optimization has taken place. However, in practice, netisrs are rarely registered or unregistered at runtime. A new man page for netisr will follow, but since one doesn't currently exist, it hasn't been updated.

Rework netisr policy mechanism so that per-protocol dispatch policies can be represented: - A single policy namespace is defined, consisting of four possible policies: "default" to use the global default, "deferred" to force deferred dispatch, "direct" to employ direct dispatch where possible, and "hybrid" which makes a dynamic decision based on CPU affinity, ordering, etc. Routines are implemented to convert between strings and an integer namespace. - A new global variable, netisr_dispatch_policy, subsumes existing global variables for direct dispatch, forced direct dispatch, etc, and is used for explicit policy interpretation and composition. Old variables remain so that they can be exported by legacy sysctls for use by old netstat(1) binaries. A new sysctl and tunable, netisr.dispatch.policy, accepts the above strings for specifying a global policy default. - The protocol registration structure, netisr_handler, grows an nh_dispatch field, which accepts a per-policy policy override. The default value is '0', which corresponds to "default", meaning that protocols will accept the global default policy unless otherwise specified. - Policies are now interpreted and composed explicitly at various points in packet dispatch; protocol policies override global policies. - Protocols grow the ability to express a non-opinion about affinity even when implenting m2cpuid by returning NETISR_CPUID_NONE. In that case, the framework falls back on source ordering, rather than simply using the current CPU. These changes are in support of allowing link layer re-dispatch based on RSS or similar hashes provided by NICs, especially in the case where the number of hardware receive queues matches hardware core count, rather than hardware thread count, requiring further software redistributeon.

Changes to support crashdump analysis of netisr: - Rename the netisr protocol registration array, 'np' to 'netisr_proto', in order to reduce the chances of symbol name collisions. It remains statically defined, but it will be looked up by netstat(1). - Move certain internal structure definitions from netisr.c to netisr_internal.h so that netstat(1) can find them. They remain private, and should not be used for any other purpose (for example, they should not be used by kernel modules, which must instead use the public interfaces in netisr.h). - Store a kernel-compiled version of NETISR_MAXPROT in the global variable netisr_maxprot, and export via a sysctl, so that it is available for use by netstat(1). This is especially important for crashdump interpretation, where the size of the workstream structure is determined by the maximum number of protocols compiled into the kernel.

Reimplement the netisr framework in order to support parallel netisr threads: - Support up to one netisr thread per CPU, each processings its own workstream, or set of per-protocol queues. Threads may be bound to specific CPUs, or allowed to migrate, based on a global policy. In the future it would be desirable to support topology-centric policies, such as "one netisr per package". - Allow each protocol to advertise an ordering policy, which can currently be one of: NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE: packets must maintain ordering with respect to an implicit or explicit source (such as an interface or socket). NETISR_POLICY_FLOW: make use of mbuf flow identifiers to place work, as well as allowing protocols to provide a flow generation function for mbufs without flow identifers (m2flow). Falls back on NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE if now flow ID is available. NETISR_POLICY_CPU: allow protocols to inspect and assign a CPU for each packet handled by netisr (m2cpuid). - Provide utility functions for querying the number of workstreams being used, as well as a mapping function from workstream to CPU ID, which protocols may use in work placement decisions. - Add explicit interfaces to get and set per-protocol queue limits, and get and clear drop counters, which query data or apply changes across all workstreams. - Add a more extensible netisr registration interface, in which protocols declare 'struct netisr_handler' structures for each registered NETISR_ type. These include name, handler function, optional mbuf to flow ID function, optional mbuf to CPU ID function, queue limit, and ordering policy. Padding is present to allow these to be expanded in the future. If no queue limit is declared, then a default is used. - Queue limits are now per-workstream, and raised from the previous IFQ_MAXLEN default of 50 to 256. - All protocols are updated to use the new registration interface, and with the exception of netnatm, default queue limits. Most protocols register as NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE, except IPv4 and IPv6, which use NETISR_POLICY_FLOW, and will therefore take advantage of driver- generated flow IDs if present. - Formalize a non-packet based interface between interface polling and the netisr, rather than having polling pretend to be two protocols. Provide two explicit hooks in the netisr worker for start and end events for runs: netisr_poll() and netisr_pollmore(), as well as a function, netisr_sched_poll(), to allow the polling code to schedule netisr execution. DEVICE_POLLING still embeds single-netisr assumptions in its implementation, so for now if it is compiled into the kernel, a single and un-bound netisr thread is enforced regardless of tunable configuration. In the default configuration, the new netisr implementation maintains the same basic assumptions as the previous implementation: a single, un-bound worker thread processes all deferred work, and direct dispatch is enabled by default wherever possible. Performance measurement shows a marginal performance improvement over the old implementation due to the use of batched dequeue. An rmlock is used to synchronize use and registration/unregistration using the framework; currently, synchronized use is disabled (replicating current netisr policy) due to a measurable 3%-6% hit in ping-pong micro-benchmarking. It will be enabled once further rmlock optimization has taken place. However, in practice, netisrs are rarely registered or unregistered at runtime. A new man page for netisr will follow, but since one doesn't currently exist, it hasn't been updated.

Rework netisr policy mechanism so that per-protocol dispatch policies can be represented: - A single policy namespace is defined, consisting of four possible policies: "default" to use the global default, "deferred" to force deferred dispatch, "direct" to employ direct dispatch where possible, and "hybrid" which makes a dynamic decision based on CPU affinity, ordering, etc. Routines are implemented to convert between strings and an integer namespace. - A new global variable, netisr_dispatch_policy, subsumes existing global variables for direct dispatch, forced direct dispatch, etc, and is used for explicit policy interpretation and composition. Old variables remain so that they can be exported by legacy sysctls for use by old netstat(1) binaries. A new sysctl and tunable, netisr.dispatch.policy, accepts the above strings for specifying a global policy default. - The protocol registration structure, netisr_handler, grows an nh_dispatch field, which accepts a per-policy policy override. The default value is '0', which corresponds to "default", meaning that protocols will accept the global default policy unless otherwise specified. - Policies are now interpreted and composed explicitly at various points in packet dispatch; protocol policies override global policies. - Protocols grow the ability to express a non-opinion about affinity even when implenting m2cpuid by returning NETISR_CPUID_NONE. In that case, the framework falls back on source ordering, rather than simply using the current CPU. These changes are in support of allowing link layer re-dispatch based on RSS or similar hashes provided by NICs, especially in the case where the number of hardware receive queues matches hardware core count, rather than hardware thread count, requiring further software redistributeon.

Changes to support crashdump analysis of netisr: - Rename the netisr protocol registration array, 'np' to 'netisr_proto', in order to reduce the chances of symbol name collisions. It remains statically defined, but it will be looked up by netstat(1). - Move certain internal structure definitions from netisr.c to netisr_internal.h so that netstat(1) can find them. They remain private, and should not be used for any other purpose (for example, they should not be used by kernel modules, which must instead use the public interfaces in netisr.h). - Store a kernel-compiled version of NETISR_MAXPROT in the global variable netisr_maxprot, and export via a sysctl, so that it is available for use by netstat(1). This is especially important for crashdump interpretation, where the size of the workstream structure is determined by the maximum number of protocols compiled into the kernel.

Threads may be bound to specific CPUs, or allowed to migrate, based on a global policy. In the future it would be desirable to support topology-centric policies, such as "one netisr per package". - Allow each protocol to advertise an ordering policy, which can currently be one of: NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE: packets must maintain ordering with respect to an implicit or explicit source (such as an interface or socket). NETISR_POLICY_FLOW: make use of mbuf flow identifiers to place work, as well as allowing protocols to provide a flow generation function for mbufs without flow identifers (m2flow). Falls back on NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE if now flow ID is available. NETISR_POLICY_CPU: allow protocols to inspect and assign a CPU for each packet handled by netisr (m2cpuid). - Provide utility functions for querying the number of workstreams being used, as well as a mapping function from workstream to CPU ID, which protocols may use in work placement decisions. - Add explicit interfaces to get and set per-protocol queue limits, and get and clear drop counters, which query data or apply changes across all workstreams. - Add a more extensible netisr registration interface, in which protocols declare 'struct netisr_handler' structures for each registered NETISR_ type. These include name, handler function, optional mbuf to flow ID function, optional mbuf to CPU ID function, queue limit, and ordering policy. Padding is present to allow these to be expanded in the future. If no queue limit is declared, then a default is used. - Queue limits are now per-workstream, and raised from the previous IFQ_MAXLEN default of 50 to 256. - All protocols are updated to use the new registration interface, and with the exception of netnatm, default queue limits. Most protocols register as NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE, except IPv4 and IPv6, which use NETISR_POLICY_FLOW, and will therefore take advantage of driver- generated flow IDs if present. - Formalize a non-packet based interface between interface polling and the netisr, rather than having polling pretend to be two protocols. Provide two explicit hooks in the netisr worker for start and end events for runs: netisr_poll() and netisr_pollmore(), as well as a function, netisr_sched_poll(), to allow the polling code to schedule netisr execution. DEVICE_POLLING still embeds single-netisr assumptions in its implementation, so for now if it is compiled into the kernel, a single and un-bound netisr thread is enforced regardless of tunable configuration. In the default configuration, the new netisr implementation maintains the same basic assumptions as the previous implementation: a single, un-bound worker thread processes all deferred work, and direct dispatch is enabled by default wherever possible. Performance measurement shows a marginal performance improvement over the old implementation due to the use of batched dequeue. An rmlock is used to synchronize use and registration/unregistration using the framework; currently, synchronized use is disabled (replicating current netisr policy) due to a measurable 3%-6% hit in ping-pong micro-benchmarking. It will be enabled once further rmlock optimization has taken place. However, in practice, netisrs are rarely registered or unregistered at runtime. A new man page for netisr will follow, but since one doesn't currently exist, it hasn't been updated.

They remain private, and should not be used for any other purpose (for example, they should not be used by kernel modules, which must instead use the public interfaces in netisr.h). - Store a kernel-compiled version of NETISR_MAXPROT in the global variable netisr_maxprot, and export via a sysctl, so that it is available for use by netstat(1).

Reimplement the netisr framework in order to support parallel netisr threads: - Support up to one netisr thread per CPU, each processings its own workstream, or set of per-protocol queues. Threads may be bound to specific CPUs, or allowed to migrate, based on a global policy. In the future it would be desirable to support topology-centric policies, such as "one netisr per package". - Allow each protocol to advertise an ordering policy, which can currently be one of: NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE: packets must maintain ordering with respect to an implicit or explicit source (such as an interface or socket). NETISR_POLICY_FLOW: make use of mbuf flow identifiers to place work, as well as allowing protocols to provide a flow generation function for mbufs without flow identifers (m2flow). Falls back on NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE if now flow ID is available. NETISR_POLICY_CPU: allow protocols to inspect and assign a CPU for each packet handled by netisr (m2cpuid). - Provide utility functions for querying the number of workstreams being used, as well as a mapping function from workstream to CPU ID, which protocols may use in work placement decisions. - Add explicit interfaces to get and set per-protocol queue limits, and get and clear drop counters, which query data or apply changes across all workstreams. - Add a more extensible netisr registration interface, in which protocols declare 'struct netisr_handler' structures for each registered NETISR_ type. These include name, handler function, optional mbuf to flow ID function, optional mbuf to CPU ID function, queue limit, and ordering policy. Padding is present to allow these to be expanded in the future.

Most protocols register as NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE, except IPv4 and IPv6, which use NETISR_POLICY_FLOW, and will therefore take advantage of driver- generated flow IDs if present. - Formalize a non-packet based interface between interface polling and the netisr, rather than having polling pretend to be two protocols. Provide two explicit hooks in the netisr worker for start and end events for runs: netisr_poll() and netisr_pollmore(), as well as a function, netisr_sched_poll(), to allow the polling code to schedule netisr execution.

In the future it would be desirable to support topology-centric policies, such as "one netisr per package". - Allow each protocol to advertise an ordering policy, which can currently be one of: NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE: packets must maintain ordering with respect to an implicit or explicit source (such as an interface or socket). NETISR_POLICY_FLOW: make use of mbuf flow identifiers to place work, as well as allowing protocols to provide a flow generation function for mbufs without flow identifers (m2flow). Falls back on NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE if now flow ID is available. NETISR_POLICY_CPU: allow protocols to inspect and assign a CPU for each packet handled by netisr (m2cpuid). - Provide utility functions for querying the number of workstreams being used, as well as a mapping function from workstream to CPU ID, which protocols may use in work placement decisions. - Add explicit interfaces to get and set per-protocol queue limits, and get and clear drop counters, which query data or apply changes across all workstreams. - Add a more extensible netisr registration interface, in which protocols declare 'struct netisr_handler' structures for each registered NETISR_ type. These include name, handler function, optional mbuf to flow ID function, optional mbuf to CPU ID function, queue limit, and ordering policy. Padding is present to allow these to be expanded in the future. If no queue limit is declared, then a default is used. - Queue limits are now per-workstream, and raised from the previous IFQ_MAXLEN default of 50 to 256. - All protocols are updated to use the new registration interface, and with the exception of netnatm, default queue limits. Most protocols register as NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE, except IPv4 and IPv6, which use NETISR_POLICY_FLOW, and will therefore take advantage of driver- generated flow IDs if present. - Formalize a non-packet based interface between interface polling and the netisr, rather than having polling pretend to be two protocols. Provide two explicit hooks in the netisr worker for start and end events for runs: netisr_poll() and netisr_pollmore(), as well as a function, netisr_sched_poll(), to allow the polling code to schedule netisr execution. DEVICE_POLLING still embeds single-netisr assumptions in its implementation, so for now if it is compiled into the kernel, a single and un-bound netisr thread is enforced regardless of tunable configuration. In the default configuration, the new netisr implementation maintains the same basic assumptions as the previous implementation: a single, un-bound worker thread processes all deferred work, and direct dispatch is enabled by default wherever possible. Performance measurement shows a marginal performance improvement over the old implementation due to the use of batched dequeue. An rmlock is used to synchronize use and registration/unregistration using the framework; currently, synchronized use is disabled (replicating current netisr policy) due to a measurable 3%-6% hit in ping-pong micro-benchmarking. It will be enabled once further rmlock optimization has taken place. However, in practice, netisrs are rarely registered or unregistered at runtime. A new man page for netisr will follow, but since one doesn't currently exist, it hasn't been updated. This change is not appropriate for MFC, although the polling shutdown handler should be merged to 7-STABLE. Bump __FreeBSD_version. Reviewed by: bz

Rework netisr policy mechanism so that per-protocol dispatch policies can be represented: - A single policy namespace is defined, consisting of four possible policies: "default" to use the global default, "deferred" to force deferred dispatch, "direct" to employ direct dispatch where possible, and "hybrid" which makes a dynamic decision based on CPU affinity, ordering, etc. Routines are implemented to convert between strings and an integer namespace. - A new global variable, netisr_dispatch_policy, subsumes existing global variables for direct dispatch, forced direct dispatch, etc, and is used for explicit policy interpretation and composition. Old variables remain so that they can be exported by legacy sysctls for use by old netstat(1) binaries. A new sysctl and tunable, netisr.dispatch.policy, accepts the above strings for specifying a global policy default. - The protocol registration structure, netisr_handler, grows an nh_dispatch field, which accepts a per-policy policy override. The default value is '0', which corresponds to "default", meaning that protocols will accept the global default policy unless otherwise specified. - Policies are now interpreted and composed explicitly at various points in packet dispatch; protocol policies override global policies. - Protocols grow the ability to express a non-opinion about affinity even when implenting m2cpuid by returning NETISR_CPUID_NONE. In that case, the framework falls back on source ordering, rather than simply using the current CPU. These changes are in support of allowing link layer re-dispatch based on RSS or similar hashes provided by NICs, especially in the case where the number of hardware receive queues matches hardware core count, rather than hardware thread count, requiring further software redistributeon.

Remove NETISR_MPSAFE, which allows specific netisr handlers to be directly dispatched without Giant, and add NETISR_FORCEQUEUE, which allows specific netisr handlers to always be dispatched via a queue (deferred). Mark the usb and if_ppp netisr handlers as NETISR_FORCEQUEUE, and explicitly acquire Giant in those handlers. Previously, any netisr handler not marked NETISR_MPSAFE would necessarily run deferred and with Giant acquired. This change removes Giant scaffolding from the netisr infrastructure, but NETISR_FORCEQUEUE allows non-MPSAFE handlers to continue to force deferred dispatch so as to avoid lock order reversals between their acqusition of Giant and any calling context. It is likely we will be able to remove NETISR_FORCEQUEUE once IFF_NEEDSGIANT is removed, as non-MPSAFE usb and if_ppp drivers will no longer be supported.

Rework netisr policy mechanism so that per-protocol dispatch policies can be represented: - A single policy namespace is defined, consisting of four possible policies: "default" to use the global default, "deferred" to force deferred dispatch, "direct" to employ direct dispatch where possible, and "hybrid" which makes a dynamic decision based on CPU affinity, ordering, etc. Routines are implemented to convert between strings and an integer namespace. - A new global variable, netisr_dispatch_policy, subsumes existing global variables for direct dispatch, forced direct dispatch, etc, and is used for explicit policy interpretation and composition. Old variables remain so that they can be exported by legacy sysctls for use by old netstat(1) binaries. A new sysctl and tunable, netisr.dispatch.policy, accepts the above strings for specifying a global policy default. - The protocol registration structure, netisr_handler, grows an nh_dispatch field, which accepts a per-policy policy override. The default value is '0', which corresponds to "default", meaning that protocols will accept the global default policy unless otherwise specified. - Policies are now interpreted and composed explicitly at various points in packet dispatch; protocol policies override global policies. - Protocols grow the ability to express a non-opinion about affinity even when implenting m2cpuid by returning NETISR_CPUID_NONE. In that case, the framework falls back on source ordering, rather than simply using the current CPU. These changes are in support of allowing link layer re-dispatch based on RSS or similar hashes provided by NICs, especially in the case where the number of hardware receive queues matches hardware core count, rather than hardware thread count, requiring further software redistributeon.

netisr_poll();
Reimplement the netisr framework in order to support parallel netisr threads: - Support up to one netisr thread per CPU, each processings its own workstream, or set of per-protocol queues. Threads may be bound to specific CPUs, or allowed to migrate, based on a global policy. In the future it would be desirable to support topology-centric policies, such as "one netisr per package". - Allow each protocol to advertise an ordering policy, which can currently be one of: NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE: packets must maintain ordering with respect to an implicit or explicit source (such as an interface or socket). NETISR_POLICY_FLOW: make use of mbuf flow identifiers to place work, as well as allowing protocols to provide a flow generation function for mbufs without flow identifers (m2flow). Falls back on NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE if now flow ID is available. NETISR_POLICY_CPU: allow protocols to inspect and assign a CPU for each packet handled by netisr (m2cpuid). - Provide utility functions for querying the number of workstreams being used, as well as a mapping function from workstream to CPU ID, which protocols may use in work placement decisions. - Add explicit interfaces to get and set per-protocol queue limits, and get and clear drop counters, which query data or apply changes across all workstreams. - Add a more extensible netisr registration interface, in which protocols declare 'struct netisr_handler' structures for each registered NETISR_ type. These include name, handler function, optional mbuf to flow ID function, optional mbuf to CPU ID function, queue limit, and ordering policy. Padding is present to allow these to be expanded in the future. If no queue limit is declared, then a default is used. - Queue limits are now per-workstream, and raised from the previous IFQ_MAXLEN default of 50 to 256. - All protocols are updated to use the new registration interface, and with the exception of netnatm, default queue limits. Most protocols register as NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE, except IPv4 and IPv6, which use NETISR_POLICY_FLOW, and will therefore take advantage of driver- generated flow IDs if present. - Formalize a non-packet based interface between interface polling and the netisr, rather than having polling pretend to be two protocols. Provide two explicit hooks in the netisr worker for start and end events for runs: netisr_poll() and netisr_pollmore(), as well as a function, netisr_sched_poll(), to allow the polling code to schedule netisr execution. DEVICE_POLLING still embeds single-netisr assumptions in its implementation, so for now if it is compiled into the kernel, a single and un-bound netisr thread is enforced regardless of tunable configuration. In the default configuration, the new netisr implementation maintains the same basic assumptions as the previous implementation: a single, un-bound worker thread processes all deferred work, and direct dispatch is enabled by default wherever possible. Performance measurement shows a marginal performance improvement over the old implementation due to the use of batched dequeue. An rmlock is used to synchronize use and registration/unregistration using the framework; currently, synchronized use is disabled (replicating current netisr policy) due to a measurable 3%-6% hit in ping-pong micro-benchmarking. It will be enabled once further rmlock optimization has taken place. However, in practice, netisrs are rarely registered or unregistered at runtime.

Changes to support crashdump analysis of netisr: - Rename the netisr protocol registration array, 'np' to 'netisr_proto', in order to reduce the chances of symbol name collisions. It remains statically defined, but it will be looked up by netstat(1). - Move certain internal structure definitions from netisr.c to netisr_internal.h so that netstat(1) can find them. They remain private, and should not be used for any other purpose (for example, they should not be used by kernel modules, which must instead use the public interfaces in netisr.h). - Store a kernel-compiled version of NETISR_MAXPROT in the global variable netisr_maxprot, and export via a sysctl, so that it is available for use by netstat(1). This is especially important for crashdump interpretation, where the size of the workstream structure is determined by the maximum number of protocols compiled into the kernel.

Reimplement the netisr framework in order to support parallel netisr threads: - Support up to one netisr thread per CPU, each processings its own workstream, or set of per-protocol queues. Threads may be bound to specific CPUs, or allowed to migrate, based on a global policy. In the future it would be desirable to support topology-centric policies, such as "one netisr per package". - Allow each protocol to advertise an ordering policy, which can currently be one of: NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE: packets must maintain ordering with respect to an implicit or explicit source (such as an interface or socket). NETISR_POLICY_FLOW: make use of mbuf flow identifiers to place work, as well as allowing protocols to provide a flow generation function for mbufs without flow identifers (m2flow). Falls back on NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE if now flow ID is available. NETISR_POLICY_CPU: allow protocols to inspect and assign a CPU for each packet handled by netisr (m2cpuid). - Provide utility functions for querying the number of workstreams being used, as well as a mapping function from workstream to CPU ID, which protocols may use in work placement decisions. - Add explicit interfaces to get and set per-protocol queue limits, and get and clear drop counters, which query data or apply changes across all workstreams. - Add a more extensible netisr registration interface, in which protocols declare 'struct netisr_handler' structures for each registered NETISR_ type. These include name, handler function, optional mbuf to flow ID function, optional mbuf to CPU ID function, queue limit, and ordering policy. Padding is present to allow these to be expanded in the future. If no queue limit is declared, then a default is used. - Queue limits are now per-workstream, and raised from the previous IFQ_MAXLEN default of 50 to 256. - All protocols are updated to use the new registration interface, and with the exception of netnatm, default queue limits. Most protocols register as NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE, except IPv4 and IPv6, which use NETISR_POLICY_FLOW, and will therefore take advantage of driver- generated flow IDs if present. - Formalize a non-packet based interface between interface polling and the netisr, rather than having polling pretend to be two protocols. Provide two explicit hooks in the netisr worker for start and end events for runs: netisr_poll() and netisr_pollmore(), as well as a function, netisr_sched_poll(), to allow the polling code to schedule netisr execution. DEVICE_POLLING still embeds single-netisr assumptions in its implementation, so for now if it is compiled into the kernel, a single and un-bound netisr thread is enforced regardless of tunable configuration. In the default configuration, the new netisr implementation maintains the same basic assumptions as the previous implementation: a single, un-bound worker thread processes all deferred work, and direct dispatch is enabled by default wherever possible. Performance measurement shows a marginal performance improvement over the old implementation due to the use of batched dequeue. An rmlock is used to synchronize use and registration/unregistration using the framework; currently, synchronized use is disabled (replicating current netisr policy) due to a measurable 3%-6% hit in ping-pong micro-benchmarking. It will be enabled once further rmlock optimization has taken place. However, in practice, netisrs are rarely registered or unregistered at runtime. A new man page for netisr will follow, but since one doesn't currently exist, it hasn't been updated. This change is not appropriate for MFC, although the polling shutdown handler should be merged to 7-STABLE. Bump __FreeBSD_version. Reviewed by: bz

Rework netisr policy mechanism so that per-protocol dispatch policies can be represented: - A single policy namespace is defined, consisting of four possible policies: "default" to use the global default, "deferred" to force deferred dispatch, "direct" to employ direct dispatch where possible, and "hybrid" which makes a dynamic decision based on CPU affinity, ordering, etc. Routines are implemented to convert between strings and an integer namespace. - A new global variable, netisr_dispatch_policy, subsumes existing global variables for direct dispatch, forced direct dispatch, etc, and is used for explicit policy interpretation and composition. Old variables remain so that they can be exported by legacy sysctls for use by old netstat(1) binaries. A new sysctl and tunable, netisr.dispatch.policy, accepts the above strings for specifying a global policy default. - The protocol registration structure, netisr_handler, grows an nh_dispatch field, which accepts a per-policy policy override. The default value is '0', which corresponds to "default", meaning that protocols will accept the global default policy unless otherwise specified. - Policies are now interpreted and composed explicitly at various points in packet dispatch; protocol policies override global policies. - Protocols grow the ability to express a non-opinion about affinity even when implenting m2cpuid by returning NETISR_CPUID_NONE. In that case, the framework falls back on source ordering, rather than simply using the current CPU. These changes are in support of allowing link layer re-dispatch based on RSS or similar hashes provided by NICs, especially in the case where the number of hardware receive queues matches hardware core count, rather than hardware thread count, requiring further software redistributeon.

Rework netisr policy mechanism so that per-protocol dispatch policies can be represented: - A single policy namespace is defined, consisting of four possible policies: "default" to use the global default, "deferred" to force deferred dispatch, "direct" to employ direct dispatch where possible, and "hybrid" which makes a dynamic decision based on CPU affinity, ordering, etc. Routines are implemented to convert between strings and an integer namespace. - A new global variable, netisr_dispatch_policy, subsumes existing global variables for direct dispatch, forced direct dispatch, etc, and is used for explicit policy interpretation and composition. Old variables remain so that they can be exported by legacy sysctls for use by old netstat(1) binaries. A new sysctl and tunable, netisr.dispatch.policy, accepts the above strings for specifying a global policy default. - The protocol registration structure, netisr_handler, grows an nh_dispatch field, which accepts a per-policy policy override. The default value is '0', which corresponds to "default", meaning that protocols will accept the global default policy unless otherwise specified. - Policies are now interpreted and composed explicitly at various points in packet dispatch; protocol policies override global policies. - Protocols grow the ability to express a non-opinion about affinity even when implenting m2cpuid by returning NETISR_CPUID_NONE. In that case, the framework falls back on source ordering, rather than simply using the current CPU.

Changes to support crashdump analysis of netisr: - Rename the netisr protocol registration array, 'np' to 'netisr_proto', in order to reduce the chances of symbol name collisions. It remains statically defined, but it will be looked up by netstat(1). - Move certain internal structure definitions from netisr.c to netisr_internal.h so that netstat(1) can find them. They remain private, and should not be used for any other purpose (for example, they should not be used by kernel modules, which must instead use the public interfaces in netisr.h). - Store a kernel-compiled version of NETISR_MAXPROT in the global variable netisr_maxprot, and export via a sysctl, so that it is available for use by netstat(1). This is especially important for crashdump interpretation, where the size of the workstream structure is determined by the maximum number of protocols compiled into the kernel.

Rework netisr policy mechanism so that per-protocol dispatch policies can be represented: - A single policy namespace is defined, consisting of four possible policies: "default" to use the global default, "deferred" to force deferred dispatch, "direct" to employ direct dispatch where possible, and "hybrid" which makes a dynamic decision based on CPU affinity, ordering, etc. Routines are implemented to convert between strings and an integer namespace. - A new global variable, netisr_dispatch_policy, subsumes existing global variables for direct dispatch, forced direct dispatch, etc, and is used for explicit policy interpretation and composition. Old variables remain so that they can be exported by legacy sysctls for use by old netstat(1) binaries. A new sysctl and tunable, netisr.dispatch.policy, accepts the above strings for specifying a global policy default. - The protocol registration structure, netisr_handler, grows an nh_dispatch field, which accepts a per-policy policy override. The default value is '0', which corresponds to "default", meaning that protocols will accept the global default policy unless otherwise specified. - Policies are now interpreted and composed explicitly at various points in packet dispatch; protocol policies override global policies. - Protocols grow the ability to express a non-opinion about affinity even when implenting m2cpuid by returning NETISR_CPUID_NONE. In that case, the framework falls back on source ordering, rather than simply using the current CPU. These changes are in support of allowing link layer re-dispatch based on RSS or similar hashes provided by NICs, especially in the case where the number of hardware receive queues matches hardware core count, rather than hardware thread count, requiring further software redistributeon.

Changes to support crashdump analysis of netisr: - Rename the netisr protocol registration array, 'np' to 'netisr_proto', in order to reduce the chances of symbol name collisions. It remains statically defined, but it will be looked up by netstat(1). - Move certain internal structure definitions from netisr.c to netisr_internal.h so that netstat(1) can find them. They remain private, and should not be used for any other purpose (for example, they should not be used by kernel modules, which must instead use the public interfaces in netisr.h). - Store a kernel-compiled version of NETISR_MAXPROT in the global variable netisr_maxprot, and export via a sysctl, so that it is available for use by netstat(1). This is especially important for crashdump interpretation, where the size of the workstream structure is determined by the maximum number of protocols compiled into the kernel.

Reimplement the netisr framework in order to support parallel netisr threads: - Support up to one netisr thread per CPU, each processings its own workstream, or set of per-protocol queues. Threads may be bound to specific CPUs, or allowed to migrate, based on a global policy. In the future it would be desirable to support topology-centric policies, such as "one netisr per package". - Allow each protocol to advertise an ordering policy, which can currently be one of: NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE: packets must maintain ordering with respect to an implicit or explicit source (such as an interface or socket). NETISR_POLICY_FLOW: make use of mbuf flow identifiers to place work, as well as allowing protocols to provide a flow generation function for mbufs without flow identifers (m2flow). Falls back on NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE if now flow ID is available.

Currently there is no easy way to specify net.isr.maxthreads = all cpus.

Reimplement the netisr framework in order to support parallel netisr threads: - Support up to one netisr thread per CPU, each processings its own workstream, or set of per-protocol queues. Threads may be bound to specific CPUs, or allowed to migrate, based on a global policy. In the future it would be desirable to support topology-centric policies, such as "one netisr per package". - Allow each protocol to advertise an ordering policy, which can currently be one of: NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE: packets must maintain ordering with respect to an implicit or explicit source (such as an interface or socket). NETISR_POLICY_FLOW: make use of mbuf flow identifiers to place work, as well as allowing protocols to provide a flow generation function for mbufs without flow identifers (m2flow). Falls back on NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE if now flow ID is available. NETISR_POLICY_CPU: allow protocols to inspect and assign a CPU for each packet handled by netisr (m2cpuid). - Provide utility functions for querying the number of workstreams being used, as well as a mapping function from workstream to CPU ID, which protocols may use in work placement decisions. - Add explicit interfaces to get and set per-protocol queue limits, and get and clear drop counters, which query data or apply changes across all workstreams. - Add a more extensible netisr registration interface, in which protocols declare 'struct netisr_handler' structures for each registered NETISR_ type.

Most protocols register as NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE, except IPv4 and IPv6, which use NETISR_POLICY_FLOW, and will therefore take advantage of driver- generated flow IDs if present. - Formalize a non-packet based interface between interface polling and the netisr, rather than having polling pretend to be two protocols.

On multi-core, multi-threaded PPC systems, it is important that the threads be brought up in the order they are enumerated in the device tree (in particular, that thread 0 on each core be brought up first). The SLIST through which we loop to start the CPUs has all of its entries added with SLIST_INSERT_HEAD(), which means it is in reverse order of enumeration and so AP startup would always fail in such situations (causing a machine check or RTAS failure). Fix this by changing the SLIST into an STAILQ, and inserting new CPUs at the end. Reviewed by: jhb

Changes to support crashdump analysis of netisr: - Rename the netisr protocol registration array, 'np' to 'netisr_proto', in order to reduce the chances of symbol name collisions. It remains statically defined, but it will be looked up by netstat(1). - Move certain internal structure definitions from netisr.c to netisr_internal.h so that netstat(1) can find them. They remain private, and should not be used for any other purpose (for example, they should not be used by kernel modules, which must instead use the public interfaces in netisr.h). - Store a kernel-compiled version of NETISR_MAXPROT in the global variable netisr_maxprot, and export via a sysctl, so that it is available for use by netstat(1). This is especially important for crashdump interpretation, where the size of the workstream structure is determined by the maximum number of protocols compiled into the kernel.

Rework netisr policy mechanism so that per-protocol dispatch policies can be represented: - A single policy namespace is defined, consisting of four possible policies: "default" to use the global default, "deferred" to force deferred dispatch, "direct" to employ direct dispatch where possible, and "hybrid" which makes a dynamic decision based on CPU affinity, ordering, etc. Routines are implemented to convert between strings and an integer namespace. - A new global variable, netisr_dispatch_policy, subsumes existing global variables for direct dispatch, forced direct dispatch, etc, and is used for explicit policy interpretation and composition. Old variables remain so that they can be exported by legacy sysctls for use by old netstat(1) binaries. A new sysctl and tunable, netisr.dispatch.policy, accepts the above strings for specifying a global policy default. - The protocol registration structure, netisr_handler, grows an nh_dispatch field, which accepts a per-policy policy override. The default value is '0', which corresponds to "default", meaning that protocols will accept the global default policy unless otherwise specified. - Policies are now interpreted and composed explicitly at various points in packet dispatch; protocol policies override global policies. - Protocols grow the ability to express a non-opinion about affinity even when implenting m2cpuid by returning NETISR_CPUID_NONE. In that case, the framework falls back on source ordering, rather than simply using the current CPU. These changes are in support of allowing link layer re-dispatch based on RSS or similar hashes provided by NICs, especially in the case where the number of hardware receive queues matches hardware core count, rather than hardware thread count, requiring further software redistributeon.

Changes to support crashdump analysis of netisr: - Rename the netisr protocol registration array, 'np' to 'netisr_proto', in order to reduce the chances of symbol name collisions. It remains statically defined, but it will be looked up by netstat(1). - Move certain internal structure definitions from netisr.c to netisr_internal.h so that netstat(1) can find them. They remain private, and should not be used for any other purpose (for example, they should not be used by kernel modules, which must instead use the public interfaces in netisr.h). - Store a kernel-compiled version of NETISR_MAXPROT in the global variable netisr_maxprot, and export via a sysctl, so that it is available for use by netstat(1).

Reimplement the netisr framework in order to support parallel netisr threads: - Support up to one netisr thread per CPU, each processings its own workstream, or set of per-protocol queues. Threads may be bound to specific CPUs, or allowed to migrate, based on a global policy. In the future it would be desirable to support topology-centric policies, such as "one netisr per package". - Allow each protocol to advertise an ordering policy, which can currently be one of: NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE: packets must maintain ordering with respect to an implicit or explicit source (such as an interface or socket). NETISR_POLICY_FLOW: make use of mbuf flow identifiers to place work, as well as allowing protocols to provide a flow generation function for mbufs without flow identifers (m2flow). Falls back on NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE if now flow ID is available. NETISR_POLICY_CPU: allow protocols to inspect and assign a CPU for each packet handled by netisr (m2cpuid). - Provide utility functions for querying the number of workstreams being used, as well as a mapping function from workstream to CPU ID, which protocols may use in work placement decisions. - Add explicit interfaces to get and set per-protocol queue limits, and get and clear drop counters, which query data or apply changes across all workstreams. - Add a more extensible netisr registration interface, in which protocols declare 'struct netisr_handler' structures for each registered NETISR_ type. These include name, handler function, optional mbuf to flow ID function, optional mbuf to CPU ID function, queue limit, and ordering policy. Padding is present to allow these to be expanded in the future. If no queue limit is declared, then a default is used. - Queue limits are now per-workstream, and raised from the previous IFQ_MAXLEN default of 50 to 256. - All protocols are updated to use the new registration interface, and with the exception of netnatm, default queue limits. Most protocols register as NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE, except IPv4 and IPv6, which use NETISR_POLICY_FLOW, and will therefore take advantage of driver- generated flow IDs if present. - Formalize a non-packet based interface between interface polling and the netisr, rather than having polling pretend to be two protocols. Provide two explicit hooks in the netisr worker for start and end events for runs: netisr_poll() and netisr_pollmore(), as well as a function, netisr_sched_poll(), to allow the polling code to schedule netisr execution. DEVICE_POLLING still embeds single-netisr assumptions in its implementation, so for now if it is compiled into the kernel, a single and un-bound netisr thread is enforced regardless of tunable configuration. In the default configuration, the new netisr implementation maintains the same basic assumptions as the previous implementation: a single, un-bound worker thread processes all deferred work, and direct dispatch is enabled by default wherever possible. Performance measurement shows a marginal performance improvement over the old implementation due to the use of batched dequeue. An rmlock is used to synchronize use and registration/unregistration using the framework; currently, synchronized use is disabled (replicating current netisr policy) due to a measurable 3%-6% hit in ping-pong micro-benchmarking. It will be enabled once further rmlock optimization has taken place. However, in practice, netisrs are rarely registered or unregistered at runtime. A new man page for netisr will follow, but since one doesn't currently exist, it hasn't been updated.

A new man page for netisr will follow, but since one doesn't currently exist, it hasn't been updated. This change is not appropriate for MFC, although the polling shutdown handler should be merged to 7-STABLE. Bump __FreeBSD_version. Reviewed by: bz
