|
A programming error cause the calculation of receive SKB slots to be
|
||||||
|
wrong, which caused the RX ring to be erroneously declared full,
|
||||||
|
and the receive queue to be stopped. The problem shows up when two
|
||||||
|
guest running on the same server tries to communicates using large
|
||||||
|
MTUs. Each guest is connected to a bridge with VLAN over bond
|
||||||
|
interface, so traffic from one guest leaves the server on one bridge
|
||||||
|
and comes back to the second guest on the second bridge. This can be
|
||||||
|
reproduces using ping, and one guest as follow:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Create active-back bond (bond0)
|
||||||
|
- Set up VLAN 5 on bond0 (bond0.5)
|
||||||
|
- Create a bridge (br1)
|
||||||
|
- Add bond0.5 to a bridge (br1)
|
||||||
|
- Start a guest and connect it to br1
|
||||||
|
- Set MTU of 9000 across the link
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Ping the guest from an external host using packet sizes of 3991, and
|
||||||
|
4054; ping -s 3991 -c 128 "Guest-IP-Address"
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
At the beginning ping works fine, but after a while ping packets do
|
||||||
|
not reach the guest because the RX ring becomes full, and the queue
|
||||||
|
get stopped. Once the problem accrued, the only way to get out of it
|
||||||
|
is to reboot the guest, or use xm network-detach/network-attach.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
ping works for packets sizes 3990,3992, and many other sizes including
|
||||||
|
4000,5000,9000, and 1500 ..etc. MTU size of 3991,4054 are the sizes
|
||||||
|
that quickly reproduce this problem.
