Subject: [xdp-hints] [PATCH bpf-next V2 5/5] selftests/bpf: xdp_hw_metadata track more timestamps
Date: Tue, 18 Apr 2023 15:31:03 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <168182466298.616355.2544377890818617459.stgit@firesoul> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <168182460362.616355.14591423386485175723.stgit@firesoul>

To correlate the hardware RX timestamp with something, add tracking of
two software timestamps both clock source CLOCK_TAI (see description in
man clock_gettime(2)).

XDP metadata is extended with xdp_timestamp for capturing when XDP
received the packet. Populated with BPF helper bpf_ktime_get_tai_ns(). I
could not find a BPF helper for getting CLOCK_REALTIME, which would have
been preferred. In userspace when AF_XDP sees the packet another
software timestamp is recorded via clock_gettime() also clock source
CLOCK_TAI.

Example output shortly after loading igc driver:

  poll: 1 (0) skip=1 fail=0 redir=2
  xsk_ring_cons__peek: 1
  0x12557a8: rx_desc[1]->addr=100000000009000 addr=9100 comp_addr=9000
  rx_hash: 0x82A96531 with RSS type:0x1
  rx_timestamp:  1681740540304898909 (sec:1681740540.3049)
  XDP RX-time:   1681740577304958316 (sec:1681740577.3050) delta sec:37.0001 (37000059.407 usec)
  AF_XDP time:   1681740577305051315 (sec:1681740577.3051) delta sec:0.0001 (92.999 usec)
  0x12557a8: complete idx=9 addr=9000

The first observation is that the 37 sec difference between RX HW vs XDP
timestamps, which indicate hardware is likely clock source
CLOCK_REALTIME, because (as of this writing) CLOCK_TAI is initialised
with a 37 sec offset.

The 93 usec (microsec) difference between XDP vs AF_XDP userspace is the
userspace wakeup time. On this hardware it was caused by CPU idle sleep
states, which can be reduced by tuning /dev/cpu_dma_latency.

View current requested/allowed latency bound via:
  hexdump --format '"%d\n"' /dev/cpu_dma_latency

More explanation of the output and how this can be used to identify
clock drift for the HW clock can be seen here[1]:
