Detailed Description
The following detailed description of specific embodiments of the present disclosure is provided in connection with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the detailed description and specific examples, while indicating the present disclosure, are given by way of illustration and explanation only, not limitation.
The following embodiments of the present disclosure may be used in a multi-core processor, and fig. 1 provides a schematic structural diagram of an asynchronous multi-core processor 10, and referring to fig. 1, the asynchronous multi-core processor 10 includes a CPU0, a CPU1, a CPU2, and a CPU3 operating in a user state, and a CPU4, a CPU5, a CPU6, and a CPU7 operating in a kernel state.
It is worth noting that the allocation of CPUs of an asynchronous multi-core processor is a dedicated role allocation, i.e. one CPU only does one thing, not one CPU does all things. For this reason, the intelligence of the asynchronous multi-core processor is divided into two parts, namely fast forwarding logic (the disclosure is simply referred to as a fast module) and strategy slow logic (the disclosure is simply referred to as a slow module) with complex functions. As shown in fig. 1, the fast module includes the CPU0, the CPU1, the CPU2, and the CPU3 shown in fig. 1; the slow modules include the CPU4, CPU5, CPU6, and CPU7 shown in fig. 1, wherein the fast modules are responsible for fast forwarding logic and the slow modules are responsible for functionally complex strategic slow logic. In the operation state, the asynchronous multi-core processor is divided into a kernel state and a user state, the kernel state is used for realizing logic with complex functions, the slow module operates in the time state, the user state is used for receiving network card messages and realizing fast forwarding logic, and the fast module operates in the user state. That is, from the runtime state, the CPU0, the CPU1, the CPU2, and the CPU3 shown in fig. 1 are user-state cores, and the CPU4, the CPU5, the CPU6, and the CPU7 are kernel-state cores.
The module for carrying out session traffic statistics is in the slow module, after all, the function is very complex and time-consuming to implement, and the general traffic fast forwarding processing is carried out by the fast module. In the related art, because the statistics of the session traffic requires that multiple cores simultaneously count and summarize to the session traffic statistics module, contention of shared resources exists among the multiple cores, and because lock contention exists, the performance of a multi-core processor is not better due to the multiple cores, and even the multi-core performance is not better than that of a single core due to poor design, and forwarding of normal traffic is also affected.
The embodiment of the present disclosure provides a session flow statistical method, which is applied to any user mode core in a multi-core processor, for example, any user mode core in an asynchronous multi-core processor 10 shown in fig. 1, where each user mode core is correspondingly provided with a session table, and each session of the user mode core establishes a corresponding session table entry in the session table, as shown in fig. 2, the method includes:
s101, aiming at each conversation of a user mode core, writing index information of a conversation table item corresponding to the conversation generating flow in each statistical period into a message transmission address of the user mode core so that the core mode core reads the flow information in the corresponding conversation table item for statistics based on the index information in the message transmission address.
The method comprises the steps that each user mode core is correspondingly provided with a message transmission address, the address for storing the session table and the message transmission address belong to a shared memory of the user mode core and a kernel mode core, and index information of session table entries is used for identifying memory addresses of the session table entries in the user mode core.
Specifically, for the design of the session table, the embodiment of the present disclosure designs the session table as a per-core mechanism, that is, one session table is correspondingly set for one user mode core. Illustratively, a memory pool is used to allocate memory for storing the session table for each user mode core during the module initialization phase, and the memory address of each session table can be designed as a continuous space. Thus, each session table corresponds to an array (the array represents the memory space allocated from the memory pool), and an entry created in the session table by each session of the user-mode core corresponds to a subscript of the array, where the subscript is a fixed index of a session entry in the memory and is also referred to as a handle number. The index information may include a handle number, and according to the handle number, the corresponding session entry may be found, and the content recorded in the session entry may be read.
The meaning of the session table entry is that the fast module forwards the message based on the message received. Specifically, when the session table entry is not found, the message is sent to the slow module for policy matching, then the session is quickly created, and if the session table entry is found, the message is forwarded based on the existing session table. In the related art, the session table is actually established on the fast module, the user is also the fast module, and the slow module cannot perform query, so that when performing session traffic statistics in the related art, the fast module needs to transmit traffic information to the slow module core, where the traffic information is part of a session table entry, and the amount of the traffic information is basically the number of effective traffic within one second of the session, which results in a huge data amount transmitted between cores. The session table is designed to be a shared memory through the optimization design of the method, and the content required by the session flow counting module is just part of the content of the session table item, so that the session flow counting module can be directly accessed after the session flow counting module is designed to be the shared memory, and a large amount of inter-core message transmission is saved.
In addition, regarding the message transmission mode, a notification mechanism is adopted in the related art, and the user mode notifies the kernel mode to accept the message by using a system call mode, that is, the inter-core interrupt IPI is sent to the kernel mode core. After all, the fast module is user-mode packet receiving processing based on a polling mechanism, and if the fast module is occupied by a large amount of system calls, the packet loss of the forwarding module can be caused due to untimely packet receiving processing. In order to solve the problem, in the technical solution provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the information transmission between the user mode core and the kernel mode core does not use a notification mechanism, and the user mode core only needs to write the index information of the session table corresponding to the session generating the traffic into the message transmission address, where the message transmission address belongs to the shared memory of the user mode core and the kernel mode core. Therefore, the kernel mode core can read the index information from the message transmission address and read the flow information from the corresponding session table item according to the index information. Compared with a notification mechanism that the user mode core needs to notify the kernel mode to receive the whole session resource in a system call mode, the technical scheme provided by the disclosure saves a large amount of message transmission contents, and avoids the user mode core from initiating a large amount of system calls, thereby reducing the consumption of calculation amount. And because the session table and the message passing address are set corresponding to each user mode core, competition among multiple cores is avoided, multiple cores are guaranteed to be not interfered with each other concurrently, and the performance of the multiple core processor can be increased linearly along with the increase of the cores.
Specifically, the content written in the message passing address of the user mode core may be in a manner of a consistent hash ring (ring), that is, a ring is established for each user mode core. Specifically, a ring mechanism is used, read and write pointers are set, the user mode core performs continuous write operation, the kernel mode core performs continuous read operation, when the read and write operations are the same, no new message comes, and the kernel mode core does not need to process any new message. Therefore, by adopting the ring mechanism, the kernel-mode core can use an independent thread to poll and process the ring of each user-mode core, only a plurality of ring rings from the user mode to the kernel mode need to be maintained in the whole process, and any memory life cycle does not need to be maintained, so that any message flow is transmitted to the kernel mode without maintaining the memory release, the whole design is simplified, and the performance consumption caused by the memory release is reduced.
In specific implementation, in order to ensure that the concurrency among multiple cores is not affected, only one traffic thread can be started in a kernel mode to perform session traffic statistics, lock contention caused by multiple cores is avoided, and the overall forwarding performance is improved.
In addition, the above statistical period may be set according to actual requirements, for example, the flow generated by a session within two seconds is counted, and the disclosure is not limited. However, for a set statistical period, there is a possibility that it is not yet time to count the traffic of a session in the statistical period, and the session is deleted. For example, a session is destroyed within the second, but the traffic of the session still needs to be transferred to the kernel mode core, so that the kernel mode core may find a failed session entry in the shared memory according to the index information, resulting in a loss of the traffic statistics.
In order to solve this problem, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides another session traffic statistical method, as shown in fig. 3, which is applied to any user-mode core in a multi-core processor, and includes:
s201, a user mode core analyzes a message of a session generating flow, and determines whether the session is about to fail according to a session state in the message.
Specifically, the session that generates traffic refers to a session that transmits a message, and thus, the session state in the message is obtained by analyzing the message, and it can be determined whether the session is to be continuously maintained or needs to be disconnected according to the session state. It should be noted that, when receiving an instruction indicating session disconnection, the client sends a message for notifying the session disconnection to the server, so that when the user mode core forwards the message, it can know that the session is about to be disconnected by analyzing the message.
Further, if the analyzed session status indicates that the session is valid, step S202 is executed; if the analyzed session status indicates that the session is about to fail, step S203 to step S204 are executed.
S202, writing the handle number and the session table type of the session table entry corresponding to the session into the message passing address of the user mode core.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the session table and the message passing address may be designed according to the above description of step S101 shown in fig. 1, and details are not described here.
S203, creating a new traffic table item in the traffic table corresponding to the user mode core according to the left and right keys of the session and the traffic information.
Wherein, the left and right keys are five-tuple (sip, short, dip, dport, protocol) in left and right directions recorded in the session table entry respectively. The traffic information refers to the traffic in _ pkts, out _ pkts, in _ bytes, out _ bytes of this session. The user mode core can directly extract left and right keys and flow information from the session table entry.
In order to ensure that the session resource which is about to fail can be correctly transferred, a traffic table is correspondingly arranged on each user mode core, wherein the traffic table is consistent with the design of the session table, and each internal table entry has a corresponding array subscript, which is also called handle number. And the address for storing the traffic table also belongs to a shared memory which is a user mode core and a kernel mode core, so that the kernel mode core can access the shared memory.
And S204, writing the handle number and the traffic table type of the new traffic table item into the message passing address of the user mode core.
Therefore, for the session about to fail in the next statistical period, the kernel-state core can count the traffic information in the traffic table, thereby avoiding the traffic counting loss caused by the session failure and improving the accuracy of the traffic counting.
It should be noted that, in order to distinguish the session table and the traffic table, the content written by the user mode core at the message passing address includes a memory pool type in addition to the handle number, taking a ring as an example, the content of each element in the ring is (handle number, sequence number of the mempool), where the type of the mempool is divided into two major classes, one of which is the session pool and the other is the traffic pool. Since the session pool and traffic pool are respectively one for each user mode core, the mempool number is actually the global number of the session pool and traffic pool of each corresponding user mode core, which is determined by initialization. If the session table type in step S202 and the traffic table type in step S204 are used, so that when the read content includes the session pool type and the handle number of the session entry, the kernel mode core counts the traffic information of the session entry record identified by the handle number in the session table; when the read content comprises the traffic pool type and the handle number of the traffic entry, the traffic information of the traffic entry record identified by the handle number is counted in the traffic table.
In addition, in a possible implementation manner of the embodiment of the present disclosure, the traffic table has no release memory mechanism, when a traffic table entry is initially created, the user mode core creates each traffic table entry in sequence, and adopts a replacement mechanism, and when a memory storing the traffic table is full, contents of each created traffic table entry are sequentially replaced according to the sequence. The order may be, for example, the order in which handles are sequentially increased. Moreover, in order to avoid that the newly-established traffic table entry is not read by the kernel mode core due to too small memory allocated to the traffic table, and the user mode core has already replaced the newly-established traffic table entry for the next time, the memory allocated to the traffic table should be larger than the maximum value of the number of sessions that may fail in one statistical period, and in specific implementation, the traffic table entries stored in the allocated memory can reach the million level. Therefore, the traffic pool only applies for alloc operation by the memory and has no release mechanism, so that the kernel mode is not required to inform the user mode to release the memory after reading a certain traffic table entry, the complexity of the system is simplified, and the performance consumption caused by memory release is avoided.
The embodiment of the present disclosure further provides another session flow statistical method, which is applied to a kernel-mode core in a multi-core processor, as shown in fig. 4, and the method includes:
s301, polling the message transmission address of each user mode core to obtain the index information newly written in the message transmission address in each statistical period.
The index information is used to identify the memory address of the session table entry in the session table corresponding to the session generating the traffic in the statistical period, wherein the address storing the session table and the message passing address both belong to the shared memory of the user mode core and the kernel mode core.
S302, reading the flow information in the corresponding session table entry according to the index information to perform flow statistics.
Optionally, the reading, according to the index information, traffic information in a corresponding session table entry for performing traffic statistics includes:
when the index information comprises the type of a session table and a handle number of a session table item, counting flow information recorded in the session table item identified by the handle number in the session table;
the method further comprises the following steps:
when the index information comprises a traffic table type and a handle number of a traffic table item, traffic information recorded in the traffic table item identified by the handle number is counted in the traffic table, wherein the traffic table item is created in the traffic table of the user mode core according to left and right keys of the session and the traffic information when the user mode core determines that the session is invalid in the next counting period.
Optionally, polling the message passing address corresponding to the user mode core is performed in a consistent hash ring manner.
In addition, in order to ensure that the concurrency among the multiple cores is not affected, only one traffic thread may be started in the kernel mode to perform session traffic statistics, that is, the method shown in fig. 3 is applied to the core running the traffic thread in the kernel mode, so that lock contention caused by the multiple cores is avoided, and the overall forwarding performance is improved.
The session table and the message passing address are specifically designed with reference to the above description of the session traffic statistical method on the user mode core side, and details are not repeated here.
In order to make those skilled in the art understand the technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure, the following takes the asynchronous multicore processor 10 shown in fig. 1 as an example to describe the session traffic statistical method provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure.
After the traffic statistic function is started, the CPU0, the CPU1, the CPU2, and the CPU3 in the asynchronous multi-core processor 10 all transmit the index information of the session in which the message needs to be transmitted into the ring of each core according to a set statistic period, and the message format is (handle number, memory pool type). The statistical period may be preset, for example, one second. It should be noted that the operation is reflected in the code as a flow of forwarding based on the session table, and in the case that the statistical period is one second, if the processing distance of a certain packet exceeds one second from the last time, the handle number and the session table type are written into the ring corresponding to the user mode core. In another case, if the message is about to be deleted in the next second, the left and right key values and the flow information of the session are extracted, a traffic entry is established from a traffic pool corresponding to the user mode core, the extracted content is filled into the newly established traffic entry, and then the handle number and the traffic type of the traffic entry are filled into the ring. Since each user mode core has a ring, the writing process of the ring is completely lock-free. That is to say, each core between multiple cores is operated completely independently without competing any resource, thereby ensuring that the whole performance under the multi-core system can be increased completely linearly along with the increase of the cores, and completely not influencing the forwarding of normal flow.
Further, only one core in the kernel mode may be used to run traffic threads, for example, the CPU4 in the asynchronous multi-core processor 10, in which case, the CPU4 polls and processes (handle number, memory pool type) passed by each user mode core, and performs statistics on the traffic in the current statistical period based on the read information. Therefore, only one traffic thread exists, so that the problem of resource competition among multiple cores does not exist, and the kernel mode access operation can be free from competition on the whole. Moreover, the traffic table can avoid the problem of system crash caused by access failure of the kernel core memory due to session deletion, and the robustness of the function is ensured.
Compared with the prior art that the whole session resource needs to be transmitted between the kernel mode and the user mode when flow statistics is carried out, the embodiment of the disclosure only needs to transmit the handle number of the session table entry or the handle number of the traffic table entry between the user mode and the kernel mode, thereby greatly reducing the number of bytes transmitted by the message, removing most of the burden in the flow statistics process, and improving the overall processing efficiency. And the design of the session table and the message transmission address (such as ring) avoids resource competition among multiple cores, and ensures that multiple cores are not interfered with each other, so that the performance of the multi-core processor can be increased linearly along with the increase of the cores, and the overall performance of the multi-core processor is further improved.
The embodiment of the present disclosure further provides a user mode core 40, as shown in fig. 5, the user mode core 40 includes:
a writing module 401, configured to write, for each session of the user mode core, index information of a session table entry corresponding to a session that generates traffic in each statistical period into a message passing address of the user mode core;
