Use MCLGET() instead of homegrown cluster (jcl) allocation mechanism.
- Before this commit, resource shortage was easily occurred because the total number of the clusters is small.

Modify some parameters to reduce packet dropping.
- Background: ixgbe doesn't use common MCLGET() interface and use the driver specific cluster allocation mechanism (jcl). The cluster is pre-allocated with a fixed number and the current number per queue is num_rx_desc * 2 (2048*2=4096). It's too small. It also has a problem that the max length of the pcq which is used in the TX path is big (4096). Example:
100M <----- [ixg0 ixg1] <----- 1G 2048 TX descs <--- 4096 pcqs <---- 2048 RX descs
If a machine forwards a traffic from 1G interface to 100M interface, It would require 2048+4096+2048=8192 descriptors, but the current number is 2048*2=4096. It's too small. Even if the both interface's link speed is the same and only small number of packet is queued in the pcq, 4096 jcl is small because 2048(RX)+TX(2048)=4096. If jcl is exhausted, not only forwarding from ixg1 to ixg0 is dropped, but also another forwarding path from ixg1 to another interface(e.g. wm0) is also dropped. Sockets also queue packets, so if a lot of sockets are used and/or a socket buffer size is changed to bigger one, it'll also become a problem. If the jcl is exhausted, evcnt(9) counter "ixgX qY Rx no jumbo mbuf" is incremented. Example: vmstat -ev | grep ixg1 | grep "no jumbo" ixg1 q0 Rx no jumbo mbuf 0 0 misc ixg1 q1 Rx no jumbo mbuf 0 0 misc ixg1 q2 Rx no jumbo mbuf 141326 0 misc ixg1 q3 Rx no jumbo mbuf 0 0 misc
- To solve this problem: - Add new config parameter IXGBE_JCLNUM_MULTI and set the default to 3 (2048 * 3). The minimum number is 2. The total number of jcl per queue is available with hw.ixgN.num_jcl_per_queue sysctl. - Reduce the max length of the pcq() which is used in the TX path from 4096 to 2048.
- Reviewed by knakahara@ and ozaki-r@.
- TODO: Use MCLGET().
