It looks like that you did not read the email closely. Only very short and clear patches are for SBuf/Mbuf in mbuf.sb/ directory. Do not look into other directories which are for LION project, not for TCP. LION is not for TCP/IP. LION is totally different network architecture, but it contains backward compatibility for TCP. That is why there is some code there for this purpose. So, do not be confused. > > Two more things, you are talking about the mtu in your Note file.

A few things are concerned here. (1) generic I/O for applications. New network architecture has to consider applications that still read//write. (2) computational data may not be on disk but in memory. Scientific programmers may not know mmap. (3) 1 Gbits/s is past. New goal is 100Gbits/s or 1Tbits/s in 200 ms RTT, and wireless networks. -Jin From owner-freebsd-performance@FreeBSD.ORG Fri Mar 5 20:23:40 2004 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-performance@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id E38D716A4CE; Fri, 5 Mar 2004 20:23:39 -0800 (PST) Received: from adsl-63-198-35-122.dsl.snfc21.pacbell.net (adsl-63-198-35-122.dsl.snfc21.pacbell.net [63.198.35.122]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 9926643D2D; Fri, 5 Mar 2004 20:23:39 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from j_guojun@lbl.gov) Received: from lbl.gov (localhost.pacbell.net [127.0.0.1]) ESMTP id i264OiCJ000465; Fri, 5 Mar 2004 20:24:47 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from j_guojun@lbl.gov) Sender: jin@adsl-63-198-35-122.dsl.snfc21.pacbell.net Message-ID: <4049528C.AA691FAF@lbl.gov> Date: Fri, 05 Mar 2004 20:24:44 -0800 From: "Jin Guojun [NCS]" X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.76 [en] (X11; U; FreeBSD 4.9-RELEASE i386) X-Accept-Language: zh, zh-CN, en-US, en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Julian Elischer References: Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit cc: bugs@freebsd.org cc: performance@freebsd.org cc: net@freebsd.org Subject: Re: sender side Sbuf/Mbuf patch for 5.2.x is ready X-BeenThere: freebsd-performance@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: Performance/tuning List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sat, 06 Mar 2004 04:23:40 -0000 The Network LION (aka LION, Net-Lion) is a totally different network architecture that we proposed to replace TCP/IP. It has compatibility to TCP/IP for current stage. Backward compatibility is important to it can be deployed without forcing every one do at the same time, which is impossible to do. The goal is to move L3 on board, and leave L4 in system, so we can use PC to drive NICs as fast as possible. LION has been tested cross some Internet paths, and will be tested over emulation lab. Over emulation network (10 Gb/s), we can manipulate different network situations in order to verify Lion will fit in future network without causing network collapse. I hope that Lion will be soon ready for generic test, that is why I put all TCP/LION API code in FBSD-5/netlion directory, which is not part of the standard TCP patch for fixing SockBuf and Mbuf issues (someone was confused by this -- It is not in FBSD-4/ directory). This is for people who may be interested in using Lion. People may take look the code in advance to understand what these patches do because Lion will be provide as a kernel loadable module till it is matured. This means Lion is BSD only at this moment. In LION architecture, all lost packets will be reported to sender via some mechanism. In TCP backward compatible code (called TCP Lion -- not Network Lion), a better SACK will be implemented. Also notice that TCP Lion can be sender modification only. That is, remote site may run Linux/Solaris/Any TCP. Lion architecture must accommodate such case and be robust. -Jin Julian Elischer wrote: > The patch for reducing time traversing queues is good.. > I have some questions.. > > It look sas if you have alos included some parts of files and patches > that are for other netLION changes.. what is the status of the other > changes..

I've just looked through your website and the patch and have a couple of comments. The bottleneck you have identified and measured looks interesting. What I'm missing is a more in-depth description of the problem and what exactly your Lion implementation does. From looking over the patch it seems to include and mix debugging routines, mbuf chain optimizations and references to lion_ functions which are stale. It is not clear what is doing what. If you want this to have any chance of being included you should separate that from each other and provide them in its own patchset preferrably as unified diff (diff -u). You also have to observe the style of the surrounding code more. We have a very strict style guide and patches to existing code must be written in the same way as the surrounding code. Two more things, you are talking about the mtu in your Note file. The MTU is not directly relevant for TCP transfers but the MSS is. The MSS is the maximum payload a TCP segment/packet can transport and is always much lower than the link/path MTU. You have the MSS in the tcpcb.maxseg variable. The other things is that I assume you do file transfers at high speed since an application is probably not capable of producing 1Gbit/s geniue date for transfer. Have you checked out sendfile(2) and tested that with high speed links?
