Hello,
This patchset targets more netns isolation when IPVS
is used in large setups and also includes some optimizations.
First patch adds useful wrappers to rculist_bl, the
hlist_bl methods IPVS will use in the following patches. The other
patches are IPVS-specific.
This is also a request for testing. Let me know if you
find the defaults for lfactor parameters not so optimal.
The following patches will:
* Convert the global __ip_vs_mutex to per-net service_mutex and
switch the service tables to be per-net, cowork by Jiejian Wu and
Dust Li
* Convert some code that walks the service lists to use RCU instead of
the service_mutex
* We used two tables for services (non-fwmark and fwmark), merge them
into single svc_table
* The list for unavailable destinations (dest_trash) holds dsts and
thus dev references causing extra work for the ip_vs_dst_event() dev
notifier handler. Change this by dropping the reference when dest
is removed and saved into dest_trash. The dest_trash will need more
changes to make it light for lookups. TODO.
* On new connection we can do multiple lookups for services by tryng
different fallback options. Add more counters for service types, so
that we can avoid unneeded lookups for services.
* Add infrastructure for resizable hash tables based on hlist_bl
which we will use for services and connections: hlists with
per-bucket bit lock in the heads. The resizing delays RCU lookups
on a bucket level with seqcounts which are protected with spin locks.
The entries keep the table ID and the hash value which allows to
filter the entries without touching many cache lines and to
unlink the entries without lookup by keys.
* Change the 256-bucket service hash table to be resizable in the
range of 4..20 bits depending on the added services and use jhash
hashing to reduce the collisions.
* Change the global connection table to be per-net and resizable
in the range of 256..ip_vs_conn_tab_size. As the connections are
hashed by using remote addresses and ports, use siphash instead
of jhash for better security.
* As the connection table is not with fixed size, show its current
size to user space
* As the connection table is not global anymore, the no_cport and
dropentry counters can be per-net
* Make the connection hashing more secure for setups with multiple
services. Hashing only by remote address and port (client info)
is not enough. To reduce the possible hash collisions add the
used virtual address/port (local info) into the hash and as a side
effect the MASQ connections will be double hashed into the
hash table to match the traffic from real servers:
OLD:
- all methods: c_list node: proto, caddr:cport
NEW:
- all methods: hn0 node (dir 0): proto, caddr:cport -> vaddr:vport
- MASQ method: hn1 node (dir 1): proto, daddr:dport -> caddr:cport
* Add /proc/net/ip_vs_status to show current state of IPVS, per-net
cat /proc/net/ip_vs_status
Conns: 9401
Conn buckets: 524288 (19 bits, lfactor -5)

It shows the table size, the load factor (2^n), how many are the empty
buckets, with percents from the all buckets, the number of buckets
with length 1..7 where len-7 catches all len>=7 (zero values are
not shown). The len-N percents ignore the empty buckets, so they
are relative among all len-N buckets. It shows that smaller lfactor
is needed to achieve len-1 buckets to be ~98%. Only real tests can
show if relying on len-1 buckets is a better option because the
hash table becomes too large with multiple connections. And as
every table uses random key, the services may not avoid collision
in all cases.
* add conn_lfactor and svc_lfactor sysctl vars, so that one can tune
the connection/service hash table sizing
Changes in v3:
Patch 7:
* change the sign of the load factor parameter, so that
2^lfactor = load/size
Patch 8:
* change the sign of the load factor parameter
* fix 'goto unlock_sem' in svc_resize_work_handler() after the last
mutex_trylock() call, should be goto unlock_m
* now cond_resched_rcu() needs to include linux/rcupdate_wait.h
Patch 9:
* consider that the sign of the load factor parameter is changed
Patch 12:
* consider that the sign of the load factor parameter is changed
Patch 14:
* change the sign of the load factor parameters in docs
Changes in v2:
Patch 1:
* add comments to hlist_bl_for_each_entry_continue_rcu and fix
sparse warnings
Patch 9:
* Simon Kirby reports that backup server crashes if conn_tab is not
created. Create it just to sync conns before any services are added.
Patch 11:
* kernel test robot reported for dropentry_counters problem when
compiling with !CONFIG_SYSCTL, so it is time to wrap todrop_entry,
ip_vs_conn_ops_mode and ip_vs_random_dropentry under CONFIG_SYSCTL
Patch 13:
* remove extra old_gen assignment at start of ip_vs_status_show()
