The maximum hash table size is 64K due to the nature of the protocol. [0]
It's smaller than TCP, and fewer sockets can cause a performance drop.
On an EC2 c5.24xlarge instance (192 GiB memory), after running iperf3 in
different netns, creating 32Mi sockets without data transfer in the root
netns causes regression for the iperf3's connection.

The per-netns hash table breaks the lengthy lists into shorter ones. It is
useful on a multi-tenant system with thousands of netns. With smaller hash
tables, we can look up sockets faster, isolate noisy neighbours, and reduce
lock contention.
The max size of the per-netns table is 64K as well. This is because the
possible hash range by udp_hashfn() always fits in 64K within the same
netns and we cannot make full use of the whole buckets larger than 64K.
/* 0 < num < 64K -> X < hash < X + 64K */
(num + net_hash_mix(net)) & mask;
Also, the min size is 128. We use a bitmap to search for an available
port in udp_lib_get_port(). To keep the bitmap on the stack and not
fire the CONFIG_FRAME_WARN error at build time, we round up the table
size to 128.
The sysctl usage is the same with TCP:
$ dmesg | cut -d ' ' -f 6- | grep "UDP hash"
UDP hash table entries: 65536 (order: 9, 2097152 bytes, vmalloc)
# sysctl net.ipv4.udp_hash_entries
net.ipv4.udp_hash_entries = 65536 # can be changed by uhash_entries
# sysctl net.ipv4.udp_child_hash_entries
net.ipv4.udp_child_hash_entries = 0 # disabled by default
# ip netns add test1
# ip netns exec test1 sysctl net.ipv4.udp_hash_entries
net.ipv4.udp_hash_entries = -65536 # share the global table
# sysctl -w net.ipv4.udp_child_hash_entries=100
net.ipv4.udp_child_hash_entries = 100
# ip netns add test2
# ip netns exec test2 sysctl net.ipv4.udp_hash_entries
net.ipv4.udp_hash_entries = 128 # own a per-netns table with 2^n buckets
We could optimise the hash table lookup/iteration further by removing
the netns comparison for the per-netns one in the future. Also, we
could optimise the sparse udp_hslot layout by putting it in udp_table.

PLB (Protective Load Balancing) is a host based mechanism for load
balancing across switch links. It leverages congestion signals(e.g. ECN)
from transport layer to randomly change the path of the connection
experiencing congestion. PLB changes the path of the connection by
changing the outgoing IPv6 flow label for IPv6 connections (implemented
in Linux by calling sk_rethink_txhash()). Because of this implementation
mechanism, PLB can currently only work for IPv6 traffic. For more
information, see the SIGCOMM 2022 paper:
https://doi.org/10.1145/3544216.3544226

The more sockets we have in the hash table, the longer we spend looking
up the socket. While running a number of small workloads on the same
host, they penalise each other and cause performance degradation.
The root cause might be a single workload that consumes much more
resources than the others. It often happens on a cloud service where
different workloads share the same computing resource.
On EC2 c5.24xlarge instance (196 GiB memory and 524288 (1Mi / 2) ehash
entries), after running iperf3 in different netns, creating 24Mi sockets
without data transfer in the root netns causes about 10% performance
regression for the iperf3's connection.
thash_entries sockets length Gbps
524288 1 1 50.7
24Mi 48 45.1
It is basically related to the length of the list of each hash bucket.
For testing purposes to see how performance drops along the length,
I set 131072 (1Mi / 8) to thash_entries, and here's the result.
thash_entries sockets length Gbps
131072 1 1 50.7
1Mi 8 49.9
2Mi 16 48.9
4Mi 32 47.3

To resolve the socket lookup degradation, we introduce an optional
per-netns hash table for TCP, but it's just ehash, and we still share
the global bhash, bhash2 and lhash2.
With a smaller ehash, we can look up non-listener sockets faster and
isolate such noisy neighbours. In addition, we can reduce lock contention.
We can control the ehash size by a new sysctl knob. However, depending
on workloads, it will require very sensitive tuning, so we disable the
feature by default (net.ipv4.tcp_child_ehash_entries == 0). Moreover,
we can fall back to using the global ehash in case we fail to allocate
enough memory for a new ehash. The maximum size is 16Mi, which is large
enough that even if we have 48Mi sockets, the average list length is 3,
and regression would be less than 1%.
We can check the current ehash size by another read-only sysctl knob,
net.ipv4.tcp_ehash_entries. A negative value means the netns shares
the global ehash (per-netns ehash is disabled or failed to allocate
memory).
# dmesg | cut -d ' ' -f 5- | grep "established hash"
TCP established hash table entries: 524288 (order: 10, 4194304 bytes, vmalloc hugepage)
# sysctl net.ipv4.tcp_ehash_entries
net.ipv4.tcp_ehash_entries = 524288 # can be changed by thash_entries
# sysctl net.ipv4.tcp_child_ehash_entries
net.ipv4.tcp_child_ehash_entries = 0 # disabled by default
# ip netns add test1
# ip netns exec test1 sysctl net.ipv4.tcp_ehash_entries
net.ipv4.tcp_ehash_entries = -524288 # share the global ehash
# sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_child_ehash_entries=100
net.ipv4.tcp_child_ehash_entries = 100
# ip netns add test2
# ip netns exec test2 sysctl net.ipv4.tcp_ehash_entries
net.ipv4.tcp_ehash_entries = 128 # own a per-netns ehash with 2^n buckets
When more than two processes in the same netns create per-netns ehash
concurrently with different sizes, we need to guarantee the size in
one of the following ways:
1) Share the global ehash and create per-netns ehash
First, unshare() with tcp_child_ehash_entries==0. It creates dedicated
netns sysctl knobs where we can safely change tcp_child_ehash_entries
and clone()/unshare() to create a per-netns ehash.
2) Control write on sysctl by BPF
We can use BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_SYSCTL to allow/deny read/write on
sysctl knobs.
Note that the global ehash allocated at the boot time is spread over
available NUMA nodes, but inet_pernet_hashinfo_alloc() will allocate
pages for each per-netns ehash depending on the current process's NUMA
policy. By default, the allocation is done in the local node only, so
the per-netns hash table could fully reside on a random node. Thus,
depending on the NUMA policy the netns is created with and the CPU the
current thread is running on, we could see some performance differences
for highly optimised networking applications.
Note also that the default values of two sysctl knobs depend on the ehash
size and should be tuned carefully:
tcp_max_tw_buckets : tcp_child_ehash_entries / 2
tcp_max_syn_backlog : max(128, tcp_child_ehash_entries / 128)
As a bonus, we can dismantle netns faster. Currently, while destroying
netns, we call inet_twsk_purge(), which walks through the global ehash.
It can be potentially big because it can have many sockets other than
TIME_WAIT in all netns. Splitting ehash changes that situation, where
it's only necessary for inet_twsk_purge() to clean up TIME_WAIT sockets
in each netns.
With regard to this, we do not free the per-netns ehash in inet_twsk_kill()
to avoid UAF while iterating the per-netns ehash in inet_twsk_purge().
Instead, we do it in tcp_sk_exit_batch() after calling tcp_twsk_purge() to
keep it protocol-family-independent.
In the future, we could optimise ehash lookup/iteration further by removing
netns comparison for the per-netns ehash.

We will soon introduce an optional per-netns ehash and access hash
tables via net->ipv4.tcp_death_row->hashinfo instead of &tcp_hashinfo
in most places.
It could harm the fast path because dereferences of two fields in net
and tcp_death_row might incur two extra cache line misses. To save one
dereference, let's place tcp_death_row back in netns_ipv4 and fetch
hashinfo via net->ipv4.tcp_death_row"."hashinfo.
Note tcp_death_row was initially placed in netns_ipv4, and commit
fbb8295248 ("tcp: allocate tcp_death_row outside of struct netns_ipv4")
changed it to a pointer so that we can fire TIME_WAIT timers after freeing
net. However, we don't do so after commit 04c494e68a ("Revert "tcp/dccp:
get rid of inet_twsk_purge()""), so we need not define tcp_death_row as a
pointer.
Also, we move refcount_dec_and_test(&tw_refcount) from tcp_sk_exit() to
tcp_sk_exit_batch() as a debug check.

Commit e21145a987 ("ipv4: namespacify ip_early_demux sysctl knob") made
it possible to enable/disable early_demux on a per-netns basis. Then, we
introduced two knobs, tcp_early_demux and udp_early_demux, to switch it for
TCP/UDP in commit dddb64bcb3 ("net: Add sysctl to toggle early demux for
tcp and udp"). However, the .proc_handler() was wrong and actually
disabled us from changing the behaviour in each netns.
We can execute early_demux if net.ipv4.ip_early_demux is on and each proto
.early_demux() handler is not NULL. When we toggle (tcp|udp)_early_demux,
the change itself is saved in each netns variable, but the .early_demux()
handler is a global variable, so the handler is switched based on the
init_net's sysctl variable. Thus, netns (tcp|udp)_early_demux knobs have
nothing to do with the logic. Whether we CAN execute proto .early_demux()
is always decided by init_net's sysctl knob, and whether we DO it or not is
by each netns ip_early_demux knob.
This patch namespacifies (tcp|udp)_early_demux again. For now, the users
of the .early_demux() handler are TCP and UDP only, and they are called
directly to avoid retpoline. So, we can remove the .early_demux() handler
from inet6?_protos and need not dereference them in ip6?_rcv_finish_core().
If another proto needs .early_demux(), we can restore it at that time.

Back when tcp_tso_autosize() and TCP pacing were introduced,
our focus was really to reduce burst sizes for long distance
flows.
The simple heuristic of using sk_pacing_rate/1024 has worked
well, but can lead to too small packets for hosts in the same
rack/cluster, when thousands of flows compete for the bottleneck.
Neal Cardwell had the idea of making the TSO burst size
a function of both sk_pacing_rate and tcp_min_rtt()
Indeed, for local flows, sending bigger bursts is better
to reduce cpu costs, as occasional losses can be repaired
quite fast.
This patch is based on Neal Cardwell implementation
done more than two years ago.
bbr is adjusting max_pacing_rate based on measured bandwidth,
while cubic would over estimate max_pacing_rate.
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_tso_rtt_log can be used to tune or disable
this new feature, in logarithmic steps.
Tested:
100Gbit NIC, two hosts in the same rack, 4K MTU.
600 flows rate-limited to 20000000 bytes per second.
Before patch: (TSO sizes would be limited to 20000000/1024/4096 -> 4 segments per TSO)

This patch adds a sysctl that allows user space to set these fields.
The packet fields are represented using a bitmask and are common between
IPv4 and IPv6 to allow user space to use the same numbering across both

net.ipv4.fib_multipath_hash_fields = 0x0037
The kernel rejects unknown fields, for example:
# sysctl -w net.ipv4.fib_multipath_hash_fields=0x1000

Currently, tcp_allowed_congestion_control is global and writable;
writing to it in any net namespace will leak into all other net
namespaces.
tcp_available_congestion_control and tcp_allowed_congestion_control are
the only sysctls in ipv4_net_table (the per-netns sysctl table) with a
NULL data pointer; their handlers (proc_tcp_available_congestion_control
and proc_allowed_congestion_control) have no other way of referencing a
struct net. Thus, they operate globally.
Because ipv4_net_table does not use designated initializers, there is no
easy way to fix up this one "bad" table entry. However, the data pointer
updating logic shouldn't be applied to NULL pointers anyway, so we
instead force these entries to be read-only.
These sysctls used to exist in ipv4_table (init-net only), but they were
moved to the per-net ipv4_net_table, presumably without realizing that
tcp_allowed_congestion_control was writable and thus introduced a leak.
Because the intent of that commit was only to know (i.e. read) "which
congestion algorithms are available or allowed", this read-only solution
should be sufficient.
The logic added in recent commit
31c4d2f160: ("net: Ensure net namespace isolation of sysctls")
does not and cannot check for NULL data pointers, because
other table entries (e.g. /proc/sys/net/netfilter/nf_log/) have
.data=NULL but use other methods (.extra2) to access the struct net.

tcp_min_tso_segs is now stored in u8, so max value is 255.
255 limit is enforced by proc_dou8vec_minmax().
We can therefore remove the gso_max_segs variable.

Many tcp sysctls are either bools or small ints that can fit into u8.
Reducing space taken by sysctls can save few cache line misses
when sending/receiving data while cpu caches are empty,
for example after cpu idle period.
This is hard to measure with typical network performance tests,
but after this patch, struct netns_ipv4 has shrunk
by three cache lines.

Separate value is added for such notifications because there are less of

After installing a route to the kernel, user space receives an
acknowledgment, which means the route was installed in the kernel,
but not necessarily in hardware.
The asynchronous nature of route installation in hardware can lead to a
routing daemon advertising a route before it was actually installed in
hardware. This can result in packet loss or mis-routed packets until the
route is installed in hardware.
It is also possible for a route already installed in hardware to change
its action and therefore its flags. For example, a host route that is
trapping packets can be "promoted" to perform decapsulation following
the installation of an IPinIP/VXLAN tunnel.
Emit RTM_NEWROUTE notifications whenever RTM_F_OFFLOAD/RTM_F_TRAP flags
are changed. The aim is to provide an indication to user-space
(e.g., routing daemons) about the state of the route in hardware.
Introduce a sysctl that controls this behavior.
Keep the default value at 0 (i.e., do not emit notifications) for several
reasons:
- Multiple RTM_NEWROUTE notification per-route might confuse existing
routing daemons.
- Convergence reasons in routing daemons.
- The extra notifications will negatively impact the insertion rate.
- Not all users are interested in these notifications.

This commit adds a new TCP feature to reflect the tos value received in
SYN, and send it out on the SYN-ACK, and eventually set the tos value of
the established socket with this reflected tos value. This provides a
way to set the traffic class/QoS level for all traffic in the same
connection to be the same as the incoming SYN request. It could be
useful in data centers to provide equivalent QoS according to the
incoming request.
This feature is guarded by /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_reflect_tos, and is by
default turned off.

When TFO keys are read back on big endian systems either via the global
sysctl interface or via getsockopt() using TCP_FASTOPEN_KEY, the values
don't match what was written.
For example, on s390x:
# echo "1-2-3-4" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_fastopen_key
# cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_fastopen_key
02000000-01000000-04000000-03000000
Instead of:
# cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_fastopen_key
00000001-00000002-00000003-00000004
Fix this by converting to the correct endianness on read. This was
reported by Colin Ian King when running the 'tcp_fastopen_backup_key' net
selftest on s390x, which depends on the read value matching what was
written. I've confirmed that the test now passes on big and little endian
systems.

Current route nexthop API maintains user space compatibility
with old route API by default. Dumps and netlink notifications
support both new and old API format. In systems which have
moved to the new API, this compatibility mode cancels some
of the performance benefits provided by the new nexthop API.
This patch adds new sysctl nexthop_compat_mode which is on
by default but provides the ability to turn off compatibility
mode allowing systems to run entirely with the new routing
API. Old route API behaviour and support is not modified by this
sysctl.
Uses a single sysctl to cover both ipv4 and ipv6 following
other sysctls. Covers dumps and delete notifications as
suggested by David Ahern.

Instead of having all the sysctl handlers deal with user pointers, which
is rather hairy in terms of the BPF interaction, copy the input to and
from userspace in common code. This also means that the strings are
always NUL-terminated by the common code, making the API a little bit
safer.
As most handler just pass through the data to one of the common handlers
a lot of the changes are mechnical.

Commit aacd9289af ("tcp: bind() use stronger
condition for bind_conflict") introduced a restriction to forbid to bind
SO_REUSEADDR enabled sockets to the same (addr, port) tuple in order to
assign ports dispersedly so that we can connect to the same remote host.
The change results in accelerating port depletion so that we fail to bind
sockets to the same local port even if we want to connect to the different
remote hosts.
You can reproduce this issue by following instructions below.
1. # sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range="32768 32768"
2. set SO_REUSEADDR to two sockets.
3. bind two sockets to (localhost, 0) and the latter fails.
Therefore, when ephemeral ports are exhausted, bind(0) should fallback to
the legacy behaviour to enable the SO_REUSEADDR option and make it possible
to connect to different remote (addr, port) tuples.
This patch allows us to bind SO_REUSEADDR enabled sockets to the same
(addr, port) only when net.ipv4.ip_autobind_reuse is set 1 and all
ephemeral ports are exhausted. This also allows connect() and listen() to
share ports in the following way and may break some applications. So the
ip_autobind_reuse is 0 by default and disables the feature.
1. setsockopt(sk1, SO_REUSEADDR)
2. setsockopt(sk2, SO_REUSEADDR)
3. bind(sk1, saddr, 0)
4. bind(sk2, saddr, 0)
5. connect(sk1, daddr)
6. listen(sk2)
If it is set 1, we can fully utilize the 4-tuples, but we should use
IP_BIND_ADDRESS_NO_PORT for bind()+connect() as possible.
The notable thing is that if all sockets bound to the same port have
both SO_REUSEADDR and SO_REUSEPORT enabled, we can bind sockets to an
ephemeral port and also do listen().

It is currenty possible to switch the TCP congestion control algorithm
in non-initial network namespaces:
unshare -U --map-root --net --fork --pid --mount-proc
echo "reno" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_congestion_control
works just fine. But currently non-initial network namespaces have no
way of kowing which congestion algorithms are available or allowed other
than through trial and error by writing the names of the algorithms into
the aforementioned file.
Since we already allow changing the congestion algorithm in non-initial
network namespaces by exposing the tcp_congestion_control file there is
no reason to not also expose the
tcp_{allowed,available}_congestion_control files to non-initial network
namespaces. After this change a container with a separate network
namespace will show:
root@f1:~# ls -al /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_* | grep congestion
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Feb 19 11:54 /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_allowed_congestion_control
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 Feb 19 11:54 /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_available_congestion_control

This patch introduces a sysctl knob "net.ipv4.tcp_no_ssthresh_metrics_save"
that disables TCP ssthresh metrics cache by default. Other parts of TCP
metrics cache, e.g. rtt, cwnd, remain unchanged.
As modern networks becoming more and more dynamic, TCP metrics cache
today often causes more harm than benefits. For example, the same IP
address is often shared by different subscribers behind NAT in residential
networks. Even if the IP address is not shared by different users,
caching the slow-start threshold of a previous short flow using loss-based
congestion control (e.g. cubic) often causes the future longer flows of
the same network path to exit slow-start prematurely with abysmal
throughput.
Caching ssthresh is very risky and can lead to terrible performance.
Therefore it makes sense to make disabling ssthresh caching by
default and opt-in for specific networks by the administrators.
This practice also has worked well for several years of deployment with
CUBIC congestion control at Google.

snprintf returns the number of chars that would be written, not number
of chars that were actually written. As such, 'offs' may get larger than
'tbl.maxlen', causing the 'tbl.maxlen - offs' being < 0, and since the
parameter is size_t, it would overflow.
Since using scnprintf may hide the limit error, while the buffer is still
enough now, let's just add a WARN_ON_ONCE in case it reach the limit
in future.
