However, +foregoing the use of skb->hash entirely loses a few important benefits: + +- When skb->hash is set by hardware, a few CPU cycles can be saved by not + hashing again in software. + +- Tunnel encapsulations will generally preserve the value of skb->hash from + before the encapsulation, which allows flow-based qdiscs to distinguish + between flows even though the outer packet header no longer has flow + information. + +It turns out that we can preserve these desirable properties in many cases, +while still supporting the advanced flow isolation properties of sch_cake. +This patch does so by reusing the skb->hash value as the flow_hash part of +the hashing procedure in cake_hash() only in the following conditions: + +- If the skb->hash is marked as covering the flow headers (skb->l4_hash is + set) + +AND + +- NAT header rewriting is either disabled, or did not change any values + used for hashing. The latter is important to match local-origin packets + such as those of a tunnel endpoint. + +The immediate motivation for fixing this was the recent patch to WireGuard +to preserve the skb->hash on encapsulation. As such, this is also what I +tested against; with this patch, added latency under load for competing +flows drops from ~8 ms to sub-1ms on an RRUL test over a WireGuard tunnel +going through a virtual link shaped to 1Gbps using sch_cake. This matches +the results we saw with a similar setup using sch_fq_codel when testing the +WireGuard patch. + +Fixes: 046f6fd5daef ("sched: Add Common Applications Kept Enhanced (cake) qdisc") +Signed-off-by: Toke Høiland-Jørgensen <toke@redhat.com> +Signed-off-by: David S.
