[PATCH net-next] net/smc: Reduce overflow of smc clcsock listen queue

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: "D. Wythe" <alibuda@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

In nginx/wrk multithread and 10K connections benchmark, the
backend TCP connection established very slowly, and lots of TCP
connections stay in SYN_SENT state.

Server: smc_run nginx

Client: smc_run wrk -c 10000 -t 4 http://server

Socket state in client host (wrk) shows like:

ss -t  | wc -l
10000

ss -t  | grep "SYN-SENT"  | wc -l
6248

While the socket state in server host (nginx) shows like:

ss -t  | wc -l
3752

Furthermore, the netstate of server host shows like:
    145042 times the listen queue of a socket overflowed
    145042 SYNs to LISTEN sockets dropped

This issue caused by smc_listen_work(), since the smc_tcp_listen_work()
shared the same workqueue (smc_hs_wq) with smc_listen_work(), while
smc_listen_work() do blocking wait for smc connection established, which
meanwhile block the accept() from TCP listen queue.

This patch create a independent workqueue(smc_tcp_ls_wq) for
smc_tcp_listen_work(), separate it from smc_listen_work(), which is
quite acceptable considering that smc_tcp_listen_work() runs very fast.

After this patch, the smc 10K connections benchmark in my case is 5
times faster than before.

Before patch :

smc_run  ./wrk -c 10000 -t 3 -d 20  http://server
  3 threads and 10000 connections
  143300 requests in 20.04s, 94.29MB read
Requests/sec:   7150.33
Transfer/sec:      4.70MB

After patch:

smc_run  ./wrk -c 10000 -t 3 -d 20  http://server
  3 threads and 10000 connections
  902091 requests in 21.99s, 593.56MB read
Requests/sec:  41017.52
Transfer/sec:     26.99MB
