[PATCH net-next] hv_netvsc: add ethtool support for set and get of settings

2016-02-25 Thread Simon Xiao
This patch allows the user to set and retrieve speed and duplex of the
hv_netvsc device via ethtool.

Example:
$ ethtool eth0
Settings for eth0:
...
Speed: Unknown!
Duplex: Unknown! (255)
...
$ ethtool -s eth0 speed 1000 duplex full
$ ethtool eth0
Settings for eth0:
...
Speed: 1000Mb/s
Duplex: Full
...

This is based on patches by Roopa Prabhu and Nikolay Aleksandrov.

RE: linux-next network throughput performance regression

2015-11-09 Thread Simon Xiao
Thanks Eric to provide the data. I am looping Tom (as I am looking into his 
recent patches) and Olaf (from Suse).

So, if I understand it correctly, you are running netperf with single TCP 
connection, and you got ~26Gbps initially and got ~30Gbps after turning the 
tx-usecs and tx-frames.

Do you have a baseline on your environment for the best/max/or peak throughput?
Again, in my environment (SLES bare metal), if use SLES12 default kernel as a 
baseline, we can see significant performance drop (10% ~ 50%) on latest 
linux-next kernel. 
Absolutely I will try the same test on net-next soon and update the results to 
here later.

Thanks,
Simon

linux-next network throughput performance regression

2015-11-06 Thread Simon Xiao
I compared the network throughput performance on SLES12 bare metal servers, 
between SLES12 default kernel and latest linux-next (2015-11-05) kernel, based 
on the test results, I suspect there is a network regression exists on 
Linux-Next over the 40G Ethernet network:
a) iperf3 reports 50% performance drop with single TCP stream on latest 
linux-next;
b) iperf3 reports 10% ~ 30% performance drop with 2 to 128 TCP streams on 
latest linux-next;
Another throughput benchmarking tool (ntttcp-for-linux) test result is also 
listed at the end of the email for reference.


Server configuration:
--
Two servers (one client and one server, cross linked by 40G Ethernet), which 
have:
a) CPU: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2667 v3 @ 3.20GHz, 2 sockets, 16 CPUs, cache 
size : 20480 KB
b) Memory: 64 GB

Thanks Joe. I would like to leave this to my next patch as there are some 
places else in netvsc (rndis_filter.c) 
have the same usage. I would like to fix them in one patch to make them 
consistent.

Thanks,
Simon

Thanks for your feedback, David.

In current netvsc driver, for each packet received, it will call 
dump_rndis_message() 
to try to dump the rndis packet information by netdev_dbg(). 
In non-debug mode, dump_rndis_message() will not dump anything 
but it still initialize some local variables and process the switch logic in 
the function 
of dump_rndis_message(), which is unnecessary, especially in high network 
throughput situation.

My change is to have a run-time config flag to control the execution of 
dump_rndis_message() 
and avoid above unnecessary cost in non-debug mode.
In the default case, it will be non-debug mode,
 and rndis_filter_receive() will not call dump_rndis_message() 
which saves the above extra cost for each packet received.

Sorry - this patch should be sent to net-next so please ignore it.
