selftests: Add infrastructure for powerpc selftests

2013-08-14T04:57:03Z

This commit adds a powerpc subdirectory to tools/testing/selftests, for tests that are powerpc specific. On other architectures nothing is built. The makefile supports cross compilation if the user sets ARCH and CROSS_COMPILE. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt

selftests: add basic posix timers selftests

2013-07-03T14:20:03Z

Add some initial basic tests on a few posix timers interface such as setitimer() and timer_settime(). These simply check that expiration happens in a reasonable timeframe after expected elapsed clock time (user time, user + system time, real time, ...). This is helpful for finding basic breakages while hacking on this subsystem.

packet: packet fanout rollover during socket overload

2013-03-19T21:15:04Z

Changes: v3->v2: rebase (no other changes) passes selftest v2->v1: read f->num_members only once fix bug: test rollover mode + flag Minimize packet drop in a fanout group. If one socket is full, roll over packets to another from the group. Maintain flow affinity during normal load using an rxhash fanout policy, while dispersing unexpected traffic storms that hit a single cpu, such as spoofed-source DoS flows. Rollover breaks affinity for flows arriving at saturated sockets during those conditions. The patch adds a fanout policy ROLLOVER that rotates between sockets, filling each socket before moving to the next. It also adds a fanout flag ROLLOVER. If passed along with any other fanout policy, the primary policy is applied until the chosen socket is full. Then, rollover selects another socket, to delay packet drop until the entire system is saturated. Probing sockets is not free. Selecting the last used socket, as rollover does, is a greedy approach that maximizes chance of success, at the cost of extreme load imbalance. In practice, with sufficiently long queues to absorb bursts, sockets are drained in parallel and load balance looks uniform in `top`. To avoid contention, scales counters with number of sockets and accesses them lockfree. Values are bounds checked to ensure correctness. Tested using an application with 9 threads pinned to CPUs, one socket per thread and sufficient busywork per packet operation to limits each thread to handling 32 Kpps. When sent 500 Kpps single UDP stream packets, a FANOUT_CPU setup processes 32 Kpps in total without this patch, 270 Kpps with the patch. Tested with read() and with a packet ring (V1). Also, passes psock_fanout.c unit test added to selftests. Signed-off-by: Willem de Bruijn Reviewed-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
