In P4, actions are assumed to pre exist and have an upper bound number of instances. Typically if you a table defined with 1M table entries you want to allocate enough action instances to cover the 1M entries. However, this is a big waste of memory if the action instances are not in use. So for our case, we allow the user to specify a minimal amount of actions in the template and then if more P4 action instances are needed then they will be added on demand as in the current approach with tc filter-action relationship. Add the necessary code to preallocate actions instances for P4 actions. We add 2 new actions flags: - TCA_ACT_FLAGS_PREALLOC: Indicates the action instance is a P4 action and was preallocated for future use the templating phase of P4TC - TCA_ACT_FLAGS_UNREFERENCED: Indicates the action instance was preallocated and is currently not being referenced by any other object. Which means it won't show up in an action instance dump. Once an action instance is created we don't free it when the last table entry referring to it is deleted. Instead we add it to the pool/cache of action instances for that specific action kind i.e it counts as if it is preallocated. Preallocated actions can't be deleted by the tc actions runtime commands and a dump or a get will only show preallocated actions instances which are being used (i.e TCA_ACT_FLAGS_UNREFERENCED == false). The preallocated actions will be deleted once the pipeline is deleted (which will purge the P4 action kind and its instances). For example, if we were to create a P4 action that preallocates 128 elements and dumped: $ tc -j p4template get action/myprog/send_nh | jq . We'd see the following: [ { "obj": "action template", "pname": "myprog", "pipeid": 1 }, { "templates": [ { "aname": "myprog/send_nh", "actid": 1, "params": [ { "name": "port", "type": "dev", "id": 1 } ], "prealloc": 128 } ] } ] If we try to dump the P4 action instances, we won't see any: $ tc -j actions ls action myprog/send_nh | jq . [] However, if we create a table entry which references this action kind: $ tc p4ctrl create myprog/table/cb/FDB \ dstAddr d2:96:91:5d:02:86 action myprog/send_nh \ param port type dev dummy0 Dumping the action instance will now show this one instance which is associated with the table entry: $ tc -j actions ls action myprog/send_nh | jq . [ { "total acts": 1 }, { "actions": [ { "order": 0, "kind": "myprog/send_nh", "index": 1, "ref": 1, "bind": 1, "params": [ { "name": "port", "type": "dev", "value": "dummy0", "id": 1 } ], "not_in_hw": true } ] } ] Co-developed-by: Victor Nogueira <victor@mojatatu.com> Signed-off-by: Victor Nogueira <victor@mojatatu.com> Co-developed-by: Pedro Tammela <pctammela@mojatatu.com> Signed-off-by: Pedro Tammela <pctammela@mojatatu.com> Signed-off-by: Jamal Hadi Salim <jhs@mojatatu.com> Reviewed-by: Vlad Buslov <vladbu@nvidia.com> Reviewed-by: Marcelo Ricardo Leitner <marcelo.leitner@gmail.com> --- include/net/act_api.h | 3 +++ net/sched/act_api.c | 45 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-------- 2 files changed, 40 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-)
