Upgrade was super-smooth, no issues at all.
I am not sure if I understood whole discussion properly, but just noticed that after upgrade:[23.09-RELEASE][admin@xxxxxx]/: kldstat -v Id Refs Address Size Name 1 67 0xffffffff80200000 339f7e8 kernel (/boot/kernel/kernel) Contains modules: Id Name ... cut - 667 modules ... 2 1 0xffffffff835a0000 5d6ea0 zfs.ko (/boot/kernel/zfs.ko) Contains modules: Id Name 1 zfsctrl 3 zfs 4 zfs_zvol 2 zfs_vdev 3 1 0xffffffff83b77000 1e2b0 opensolaris.ko (/boot/kernel/opensolaris.ko) Contains modules: Id Name 5 opensolaris 4 3 0xffffffff84420000 6620 gpiobus.ko (/boot/kernel/gpiobus.ko) Contains modules: Id Name 680 gpio/gpioc 679 gpio/gpiobus 5 1 0xffffffff84427000 2138 gpioled.ko (/boot/kernel/gpioled.ko) Contains modules: Id Name 681 gpiobus/gpioled 6 1 0xffffffff8442a000 2288 cordbuc.ko (/boot/kernel/cordbuc.ko) Contains modules: Id Name 684 cordbuc/cordbuc_gpio 683 isa/cordbuc 682 cordbuc 7 1 0xffffffff8442d000 2220 cpuctl.ko (/boot/kernel/cpuctl.ko) Contains modules: Id Name 685 cpuctl 8 1 0xffffffff84430000 3240 ichsmb.ko (/boot/kernel/ichsmb.ko) Contains modules: Id Name 687 pci/ichsmb 686 ichsmb/smbus 9 1 0xffffffff84434000 2178 smbus.ko (/boot/kernel/smbus.ko) Contains modules: Id Name 10 1 0xffffffff84437000 4378 qat.ko (/boot/kernel/qat.ko) Contains modules: Id Name 698 nexus/qat 11 6 0xffffffff8443c000 14d60 qat_hw.ko (/boot/kernel/qat_hw.ko) Contains modules: Id Name 696 pci/qat_c4xxx 691 pci/qat_200xx 695 pci/qat_dh895xcc 692 pci/qat_4xxx 694 pci/qat_c3xxx 690 pci/qat_c62x 693 pci/qat_4xxxvf 12 9 0xffffffff84451000 2ff70 qat_common.ko (/boot/kernel/qat_common.ko) Contains modules: Id Name 688 qat_common 13 8 0xffffffff84481000 68cd8 qat_api.ko (/boot/kernel/qat_api.ko) Contains modules: Id Name 689 qat_api 14 1 0xffffffff844ea000 122c18 qat_c3xxx_fw.ko (/boot/kernel/qat_c3xxx_fw.ko) Contains modules: Id Name 697 qat_c3xxx_fw_fw 15 1 0xffffffff8460d000 11240 qat_c2xxx.ko (/boot/kernel/qat_c2xxx.ko) Contains modules: Id Name 699 pci/qat_c2xxx 17 1 0xffffffff8464e000 20e8 coretemp.ko (/boot/kernel/coretemp.ko) Contains modules: Id Name 701 cpu/coretemp 18 1 0xffffffff8461f000 2e560 if_wg.ko (/boot/kernel/if_wg.ko) Contains modules: Id Name 702 if_wgWhile 23.05.1:

[23.05.1-RELEASE][admin@xxxxxx]/root: vmstat -i | grep qat irq62: qat0:b1 959 0 irq63: qat0:b2 1685 0Should that if_ovpn.ko kernel module be (always) loaded in 23.09 out of the box?
It used to be in 23.05.1 on my box even though that OpenVPN client (ovpnc1) in 6100 box is and was not marked with DCO enabled.
So my 6100 Site-To-Site tunnel anyway did not use DCO before upgrade and still does not use after upgrade.My OpenVPN Site-To-Site is connecting without troubles after upgrade. I am just little bit worried so wanted to ask. I could try to check more things thanks to Boot Environments :)
So those IRQ vmstats might have been coming from usermode programs such as nginx/webgui? Anyway is there anything to worry about mentioned module not being loaded?
Thank you for an update and take care! (wanted to report that spotted difference)
I will try to (re)configure ovpnc1 to use DCO - maybe next week :)
-
@sandie There might have been changes...something about user-space. Both my boxes are showing QAT enabled...
-
@NollipfSense Yes, I understand, you are QAT "capable" like me. The question is why this module is NOT loaded anymore in 23.09? Should it be or not? Dashboard info does not change anything:
I am NOT having DCO enabled in ovpnc1 in 23.09. I had no DCO in ovpnc1 in 23.05.1 too, but if_ovpn.ko module was loaded. And... Maybe that was why I observed some IRQs in 23.05.1 and I am no longer observing them in 23.09? Please tell me how to load if_ovpn.ko on boot in 23.09 so I can try to revalidate 6100 behaviour after that and see whether QAT IRQs are coming slowly.
Cheers -
if_ovpn is only used for DCO mode. I would expect to see it loaded if you have DCO enabled on any OpenVPN instance.

@stephenw10 Hi Stephen,
Ok, understood. Trust me or not - it was loaded in 23.05.1 even though I did NOT use DCO in ovpnc1 (Site-To-Site link).
No changes on my side. Module is no longer loaded. I do not run OpenVPN server on that 6100 box just client connection.
I will try to enable DCO in ovpnc1 in 6100 shortly, but there is some obvious difference and in my case in 23.09 module is NOT loaded, but WAS loaded in 23.05.1 (even though I never setup DCO on that box!).
Maybe nothing to worry, just my 5 cents. -
I don't think it's anything to worry about. I can't replicate that here though. In 23.05.1 it only loads the module if I enable DCO on an instance.
You can see in the logs where openvpn changes from using tun to using if_ovpn:
Nov 11 23:08:08 kernel tun1: changing name to 'ovpns1' Nov 11 23:09:19 kernel ovpn0: changing name to 'ovpns1' -
@stephenw10 Thank you for following this thread. Do not start/setup ovpns1 please. Test using only ovpnc1 non-DCO please. I can boot 23.05.1 for you with that ovpnc1 non-DCO if you would like to access it remotely to check. But please trust my copy&paste - it is not cheated.
Maybe it is something related to OpenSSL 3.0 which no longer loads that module in non-DCO client connections? (???)
That module was present in 23.05.1 (I know it sounds strange it was loaded when running ovpnc1 non-DCO but it was!). No single config change on my side. -
@sandie said in 23.09 QAT question (just upgraded 6100 from 23.05.1 and /boot/kernel/if_ovpn.ko is no longer listed by vmstat):
The question is why this module is NOT loaded anymore in 23.09? Should it be or not? Dashboard info does not change anything:
Okay, I see what you mean now...maybe why it takes almost 3 minutes to load the QAT driver, but it was doing the same in 23.05.1...
the kernel should be saying: pci/qat?[23.09-RELEASE][admin@NollipfSense.nolli.lan]/root: vmstat -i | grep qat

@NollipfSense I referred to if_ovpn.ko which somehow was loaded in my setup in 23.05.1 (non-DCO ovpnc1 running), when it is not loaded anymore for same OpenVPN 23.09 setup.
QAT IRQs are kept =0 on 23.09 - I wanted to understand if that was intended difference and that module is obsolete for non-DCO client connections. If OpenVPN or anything else benefited from it being loaded I would prefer to keep it loading in 23.09 too :)BTW. 23.09 delivers OpenVPN 2.6.5 which is affected by crappy and fresh CVE-2023-46849 (DoS) and CVE-2023-46850. Are you guys going to patch these problems soon? You always fix problems in reasonable time so I am generally sleeping well.
23.05.1 is affected too as it runs OpenVPN 2.6.2. -
@sandie I am trying understand how QAT is implemented in pfSense +...according to here: https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/8842961
"The hardware accelerators work by offloading the computing from CPU. In this work, we first analyze the hardware encryption models with OpenSSL and Intel
QuickAssist Technology (QAT) accelerators implemented in user space and kernel space."
So, is it for both user and kernel like this below pic as taken from here: https://networkbuilders.intel.com/docs/networkbuilders/intel-quickassist-technology-nginx-performance-white-paper-1675662546.pdf

@sandie said in 23.09 QAT question (just upgraded 6100 from 23.05.1 and /boot/kernel/if_ovpn.ko is no longer listed by vmstat):

Urgh. Doesn't look like 2.6.7 is in FreeBSD pkgs yet so it will be at least that long.

Yes, but it looks like it may have a significant bug.
