veth: Do not record rx queue hint in veth_xmit
commit710ad98c36
upstream. Laurent reported that they have seen a significant amount of TCP retransmissions at high throughput from applications residing in network namespaces talking to the outside world via veths. The drops were seen on the qdisc layer (fq_codel, as per systemd default) of the phys device such as ena or virtio_net due to all traffic hitting a _single_ TX queue _despite_ multi-queue device. (Note that the setup was _not_ using XDP on veths as the issue is generic.) More specifically, afteredbea92202
("veth: Store queue_mapping independently of XDP prog presence") which made it all the way back to v4.19.184+, skb_record_rx_queue() would set skb->queue_mapping to 1 (given 1 RX and 1 TX queue by default for veths) instead of leaving at 0. This is eventually retained and callbacks like ena_select_queue() will also pick single queue via netdev_core_pick_tx()'s ndo_select_queue() once all the traffic is forwarded to that device via upper stack or other means. Similarly, for others not implementing ndo_select_queue() if XPS is disabled, netdev_pick_tx() might call into the skb_tx_hash() and check for prior skb_rx_queue_recorded() as well. In general, it is a _bad_ idea for virtual devices like veth to mess around with queue selection [by default]. Given dev->real_num_tx_queues is by default 1, the skb->queue_mapping was left untouched, and so prior toedbea92202
the netdev_core_pick_tx() could do its job upon __dev_queue_xmit() on the phys device. Unbreak this and restore prior behavior by removing the skb_record_rx_queue() from veth_xmit() altogether. If the veth peer has an XDP program attached, then it would return the first RX queue index in xdp_md->rx_queue_index (unless configured in non-default manner). However, this is still better than breaking the generic case. Fixes:edbea92202
