This patch adds a signature match cache (SMC) after exact match
cache (EMC). The difference between SMC and EMC is SMC only stores
a signature of a flow thus it is much more memory efficient. With
same memory space, EMC can store 8k flows while SMC can store 1M
flows. It is generally beneficial to turn on SMC but turn off EMC
when traffic flow count is much larger than EMC size.
SMC cache will map a signature to an dp_netdev_flow index in
flow_table. Thus, we add two new APIs in cmap for lookup key by
index and lookup index by key.
For now, SMC is an experimental feature that it is turned off by
default. One can turn it on using ovsdb options.

The ovs_assert() macro always evaluates its argument, even when NDEBUG is
defined so that failure is ignored. This behavior wasn't documented, and
thus a lot of code didn't rely on it. This commit documents the behavior
and simplifies bits of code that heretofore didn't rely on it.

Current implementation of manual padding inside struct cmap_bucket
doesn't work for some cacheline sizes. For example, if CACHE_LINE_SIZE
equals to 128, compiler adds an additional 8 bytes: 4 bytes between
'hashes' and 'nodes' and 4 bytes after the manual 'pad'. This leads to
build time assertion, because sizeof(struct cmap_bucket) == 136.
Fix that by using PADDED_MEMBERS macro, which will handle all the
unexpected compiler paddings.
This is safe because we still have build time assert for the structure
size. Other possible solution is to pack the structure, but the padding
marco looks better and matches the other code.

Instead of explicitly adding the pad bytes to force the structure an
exact multiple of cacheline size, let the macro do the job. This way
the pad bytes will be auto adjusted when the new members get introduced
in to the structure.

Sometimes code is much simpler if we can statically initialize data
structures. Until now, this has not been possible for cmap-based data
structures, so this commit introduces a CMAP_INITIALIZER macro.
This works by adding a singleton empty cmap_impl that simply forces the
first insertion into any cmap that points to it to allocate a real
cmap_impl. There could be some risk that rogue code modifies the
singleton, so for safety it is also marked 'const' to allow the linker to
put it into a read-only page.
This adds a new OVS_ALIGNED_VAR macro with GCC and MSVC implementations.
The latter is based on Microsoft webpages, so developers who know Windows
might want to scrutinize it.
As examples of the kind of simplification this can make possible, this
commit removes an initialization function from ofproto-dpif-rid.c and a
call to cmap_init() from tnl-neigh-cache.c. An upcoming commit will add
another user.

This commit adds check in cmap_remove() and shrinks the cmap by half
if the load factor is below 20%. This is to reduce the memory
utilization of cmap and to avoid the allocated cmap memory occupying
the top of heap memory, preventing the trim of heap.

Batching the cmap find improves the memory behavior with large cmaps
and can make searches twice as fast:
$ tests/ovstest test-cmap benchmark 2000000 8 0.1 16
Benchmarking with n=2000000, 8 threads, 0.10% mutations, batch size 16:
cmap insert: 533 ms
cmap iterate: 57 ms
batch search: 146 ms
cmap destroy: 233 ms
cmap insert: 552 ms
cmap iterate: 56 ms
cmap search: 299 ms
cmap destroy: 229 ms
hmap insert: 222 ms
hmap iterate: 198 ms
hmap search: 2061 ms
hmap destroy: 209 ms
Batch size 1 has small performance penalty, but all other batch sizes
are faster than non-batched cmap_find(). The batch size 16 was
experimentally found better than 8 or 32, so now
classifier_lookup_miniflow_batch() performs the cmap find operations
in batches of 16.

We use the 'counter' as a "lock" providing acquire-release
semantics. Therefore we can use normal, non-atomic access to the
memory accesses between the atomic accesses to 'counter'. The
cmap_node.next needs to be RCU, so that can not be changed.
For the writer this is straightforward, as we first acquire-read the
counter and after all the changes we release-store the counter. For
the reader this is a bit more complex, as we need to make sure the
last counter read is not reordered with the preceding read operations
on the bucket contents.
Also rearrange code to benefit from the fact that hash values are
unique in any bucket.
This patch seems to make cmap_insert() a bit faster.

We already update the count field as the last step of these functions,
so returning the current count is very cheap. Callers that care about
the count become a bit more efficient, as they avoid extra

Currently, the cmap_destroy() directly frees the cmap memory.
Some callers of cmap_destroy() (e.g. destroy_subtable()) still
allows other threads (e.g. pmd threads) accessing the cmap at
the same time (e.g. via classifier_lookup_miniflow_batch()),
which could cause segfault.
To fix the above issue, this commit use ovsrcu to postpone
the free of cmap memory.

CMAP_FOR_EACH and CLS_FOR_EACH and their variants tried to use void ** as
a "pointer to any kind of pointer". That is a violation of the aliasing
rules in ISO C which technically yields undefined behavior. With GCC 4.1,
it causes both warnings and actual misbehavior. One option would to add
-fno-strict-aliasing to the compiler flags, but that would only help with
GCC; who knows whether this can be worked around with other compilers.
Instead, this commit rewrites the iterators to avoid disallowed pointer
aliasing.

ovsrcu_init() was named after the atomic_init(), but the semantics are
different enough to warrant a different name. Basically C11
atomic_init is defined in a way that allows the implementation to
assign the value without any syncronization, so in theory stores via
atomic_init could be seen by others after stores via atomic_set, even
if the atomic_init appeared earlier in the code.
ovsrcu_set_hidden() can be used to set an RCU protected variable when
it is not yet accessible by any active reader, but will be made
visible later via an ovsrcu_set call on some other pointer.
This patch also adds a new ovsrcu_init() that can be used to initilize
RCU protected variables when the readers are not yet executing. The
new ovsrcu_init() is implemented with atomic_init(), so it does not
provide any kind of syncronization.

The documentation of the memory order argument of atomic operations
states that memory loads after an atomic load with a
memory_order_acquire cannot be moved before the atomic operation.
This still leaves open the possibility that non-atomic loads before
the atomic load could be moved after it, hence breaking down the
synchronization used for cmap_find().
This patch fixes this my using atomics (with appropriate memory_order)
also for the struct cmap_node pointer and hash values.
struct cmap_node itself is used for the pointer, since it already
contains an RCU pointer (which is atomic) for a struct cmap_node.
This also helps simplify some of the code previously dealing
separately with the cmap_node pointer in the bucket v.s. a cmap_node.
Hash values are also accessed using atomics. Otherwise it might be
legal for a compiler to read the hash values once, and keep using the
same values through all the retries.
These should have no effect on performance.

Add cmap_replace() and cmap_first(), as well as CMAP_FOR_EACH_SAFE and
CMAP_FOR_EACH_CONTINUE to make porting existing hmap using code a bit
easier.
CMAP_FOR_EACH_SAFE is useful in RCU postponed destructors, when it is
known that additional postponing is not needed.

This implements an "optimistic concurrent cuckoo hash", a single-writer,
multiple-reader hash table data structure. The point of this data
structure is performance, so this commit message focuses on performance.
I tested the performance of cmap with the test-cmap utility included in
this commit. It takes three parameters for benchmarking:
- n, the number of elements to insert.
- n_threads, the number of threads to use for searching and
mutating the hash table.
- mutations, the percentage of operations that should modify the
hash table, from 0% to 100%.
e.g. "test-cmap 1000000 16 1" inserts one million elements, uses 16
threads, and 1% of the operations modify the hash table.
Any given run does the following for both hmap and cmap
implementations:
- Inserts n elements into a hash table.
- Iterates over all of the elements.
- Spawns n_threads threads, each of which searches for each of the
elements in the hash table, once, and removes the specified
percentage of them.
- Removes each of the (remaining) elements and destroys the hash
table.
and reports the time taken by each step,
The tables below report results for various parameters with a draft version
of this library. The tests were not formally rerun for the final version,
but the intermediate changes should only have improved performance, and
this seemed to be the case in some informal testing.
n_threads=16 was used each time, on a 16-core x86-64 machine. The compiler
used was Clang 3.5. (GCC yields different numbers but similar relative
results.)
The results show:
- Insertion is generally 3x to 5x faster in an hmap.
- Iteration is generally about 3x faster in a cmap.
- Search and mutation is 4x faster with .1% mutations and the
advantage grows as the fraction of mutations grows. This is
because a cmap does not require locking for read operations,
even in the presence of a writer.
With no mutations, however, no locking is required in the hmap
case, and the hmap is somewhat faster. This is because raw hmap
search is somewhat simpler and faster than raw cmap search.
- Destruction is faster, usually by less than 2x, in an hmap.
