[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1317811] Re: Dropped packets on EC2, "xen_netfront: xennet: skb rides the rocket: x slots"

2015-02-16 Thread Stéphan Kochen
I believe my test case is flawed, so I cannot verify with certainty if
the issue is fixed or not. This is the same test case as I used before,
for which I posted code in a gist:
https://gist.github.com/stephank/764e3414d57bc3bcb6b3

Here's what I tried:

 - I started two new c3.large machines from ami-69e76c1e (eu-west-1 HVM
64-bit trusty with instance store)

 - I downloaded io.js 1.2.0 on machine A, together with the pub.js and
sub.js scripts from my gist.

 - I installed redis-server on machine B and reconfigured redis to bind
on to the internal IP (in 10.x.x.x)

 - The machines were initially running linux-virtual 3.13.0.45.52. I
reproduced the issue in this setup by running sub.js twice, then pub.js
once on machine A, connecting them to redis on machine B. The 'rides the
rocket' message showed up in the logs, and the subs lost their
connection.

 - I enabled trusty proposed on both machines with a pin, and
selectively upgraded linux-virtual on both machines. Then rebooted on
both. The kernel on both machines is now linux-virtual 3.13.0.46.53.

 - I ran the same test again, sub.js twice, pub.js once on machine A,
connecting to machine B. There were no 'rides the rocket' messages, but
the subs still lose their connections. I sporadically get
'net_ratelimit: x callbacks suppressed', but not on every test run.

 - I disabled scather/gather on both machines, which also dropped their
MTU to 1500, and ran the test again several times. There were no more
'net_ratelimit' messages, but the subs still lose their connections.

 - I installed redis-server on machine A the same way, listening on the
internal IP, and ran the same test on machine A, but this time
connecting to itself on the internal IP. The test now runs indefinitely.
(But this probably doesn't touch the driver.)

So I'm not sure what to take away from this. I suppose I could continue
by trying to fix my test case to run properly without scather/gather,
before again enabling it. Or find a way to trigger it using a different
test, such as with redis-benchmark.

Stefan, is it sufficient verification if your own testing now shows it
fixed?

Bug description:
  Running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS on EC2, we see a lot of the following in the
  kernel log:

  xen_netfront: xennet: skb rides the rocket: 19 slots

  Each of these messages corresponds to a dropped TX packet, and
  eventually causes our application's connections to break and timeout.

  The problem appears when network load increases. We have Node.js
  processes doing pubsub with a Redis server, and these are most visibly
  affected, showing frequent connection loss. The processes talk to each
  other using the private addresses EC2 allocates to the machines.

  Notably, the default MTU on the network interface seems to have gone
  up from 1500 on 13.10, to 9000 in 14.04 LTS. Reducing the MTU back to
  1500 seems to drastically reduce dropped packets. (Can't say for
  certain if it completely eliminates the problem.)

  The machines we run are started from ami-896c96fe.

2014-05-16 Thread Stéphan Kochen
Thanks for the continued help fixing this!

I couldn't reproduce it using redis-benchmark on EC2, but that's okay.

Scatter/gather IO is solely a performance flag in the driver? As in, it
won't affect applications?

The only effect I noticed after disabling it is that it's apparently
required for jumbo framing:

vif vif-0 eth0: Reducing MTU because no SG offload

And it dropped to 1500. But I can live with that.

Also, do you have a link to the upstream discussion?

2014-05-13 Thread Stéphan Kochen
So I have a smaller test case. Basically, install Redis (from apt) on
one machine, and Node.js (binaries from nodejs.org) with the below
scripts on the other. Run pub.js once, and sub.js twice, this quickly
triggers the error. The first arg to each script is the address of the
redis machine; I use the internal 10.0.0.0/8 address.

https://gist.github.com/stephank/764e3414d57bc3bcb6b3

I initially tried to do this using openbsd-inetd echo and several netcat
processes, but that doesn't seem to trigger it. Maybe it's something
specific about the way Redis distributes pubsub messages to its
subscribers?

If you'd like me to run this on EC2, I can give it a try. A custom

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1317811] Re: Dropped packets on EC2, "xen_netfront: xennet: skb rides the rocket: x slots"

2014-05-13 Thread Stéphan Kochen
I can't comment on the driver implementation details, but I can give
some further details about our experience.

The app in question was a second screen app for the dutch public
broadcasting network for the Eurovision Song Contest. The app was live
for two semi-finals on tuesday the 6th and thursday the 8th, as well as
the finals saturday the 10th. Load was lowest on the thursday, when the
Netherlands did not perform, and highest saturday during the finals. We
ran c3.large instances for all shows.

During the first run on tuesday was when we first noticed the issue.

Shortly before the second run on thursday we noticed the high MTU
setting as a possible cause, and changed it to 1500 on half of our
machines in the redundant setup. There was a clear difference in
connection stability between these machines.

For the third run on saturday, we had all machines on the normal MTU of
1500, as we adjusted our startup scripts to force the setting. We had
zero connection issues that night, and clean kernel logs, even though
this night saw the highest network load of all three.

We have several m1.small instances running 24/7 as well, and these have
clean kernel logs, but their network load is quite low. The MTU on these
has always been untouched, and is a normal 1500, apparently by default.

In the instance type list, EC2 shows Compute Optimized instances as
having Enhanced Networking. Even though we don't qualify for it, perhaps
the networking setup is different for these instances.
https://aws.amazon.com/ec2/instance-types/

About a custom kernel, we'd have to look into deploying it, or
reproducing the issue on a smaller test setup. I'd prefer looking into
the latter, because maybe we can reproduce it between just two instances
with stress tools.

Title:
  Dropped packets on EC2, "xen_netfront: xennet: skb rides the rocket: x
  slots"

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS on EC2, we see a lot of the following in the
  kernel log:

  xen_netfront: xennet: skb rides the rocket: 19 slots

  Each of these messages corresponds to a dropped TX packet, and
  eventually causes our application's connections to break and timeout.

  The problem appears when network load increases. We have Node.js
  processes doing pubsub with a Redis server, and these are most visibly
  affected, showing frequent connection loss. The processes talk to each
  other using the private addresses EC2 allocates to the machines.

  Notably, the default MTU on the network interface seems to have gone
  up from 1500 on 13.10, to 9000 in 14.04 LTS. Reducing the MTU back to
  1500 seems to drastically reduce dropped packets. (Can't say for
  certain if it completely eliminates the problem.)

  The machines we run are started from ami-896c96fe.

2014-05-10 Thread Stéphan Kochen
For what it's worth, the MTU appears to differ per instance type. At
least c3.large has an MTU of 9000 by default, while m1.small has a
normal MTU of 1500.

Title:
  Dropped packets on EC2, "xen_netfront: xennet: skb rides the rocket: x
  slots"

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS on EC2, we see a lot of the following in the
  kernel log:

  xen_netfront: xennet: skb rides the rocket: 19 slots

  Each of these messages corresponds to a dropped TX packet, and
  eventually causes our application's connections to break and timeout.

  The problem appears when network load increases. We have Node.js
  processes doing pubsub with a Redis server, and these are most visibly
  affected, showing frequent connection loss. The processes talk to each
  other using the private addresses EC2 allocates to the machines.

  Notably, the default MTU on the network interface seems to have gone
  up from 1500 on 13.10, to 9000 in 14.04 LTS. Reducing the MTU back to
  1500 seems to drastically reduce dropped packets. (Can't say for
  certain if it completely eliminates the problem.)

  The machines we run are started from ami-896c96fe.

The machine is no longer running, but I can run apport-collect from a
similar machine. The only difference being that we've since added a line
to our startup script to reduce the MTU to 1500.

** Tags added: apport-collected

** Description changed:

  Running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS on EC2, we see a lot of the following in the
  kernel log:
  
  xen_netfront: xennet: skb rides the rocket: 19 slots
  
  Each of these messages corresponds to a dropped TX packet, and
  eventually causes our application's connections to break and timeout.
  
  The problem appears when network load increases. We have Node.js
  processes doing pubsub with a Redis server, and these are most visibly
  affected, showing frequent connection loss. The processes talk to each
  other using the private addresses EC2 allocates to the machines.
  
  Notably, the default MTU on the network interface seems to have gone up
  from 1500 on 13.10, to 9000 in 14.04 LTS. Reducing the MTU back to 1500
  seems to drastically reduce dropped packets. (Can't say for certain if
  it completely eliminates the problem.)
  
  The machines we run are started from ami-896c96fe.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1317811] [NEW] Dropped packets on EC2, "xen_netfront: xennet: skb rides the rocket: x slots"

2014-05-09 Thread Stéphan Kochen
Public bug reported:

Running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS on EC2, we see a lot of the following in the
kernel log:

xen_netfront: xennet: skb rides the rocket: 19 slots

Each of these messages corresponds to a dropped TX packet, and
eventually causes our application's connections to break and timeout.

The problem appears when network load increases. We have Node.js
processes doing pubsub with a Redis server, and these are most visibly
affected, showing frequent connection loss. The processes talk to each
other using the private addresses EC2 allocates to the machines.

Notably, the default MTU on the network interface seems to have gone up
from 1500 on 13.10, to 9000 in 14.04 LTS. Reducing the MTU back to 1500
seems to drastically reduce dropped packets. (Can't say for certain if
it completely eliminates the problem.)
