34a802a5b9 tcp: move stats merge to the end of tcp_try_coalesce
This change cleans up the last bits of tcp_try_coalesce so that we only
need one goto which jumps to the end of the function.  The idea is to make
the code more readable by putting things in a linear order so that we start
execution at the top of the function, and end it at the bottom.

I also made a slight tweak to the code for handling frags when we are a
clone.  Instead of making it an if (clone) loop else nr_frags = 0 I changed
the logic so that if (!clone) we just set the number of frags to 0 which
disables the for loop anyway.

57b55a7ec6 tcp: Move code related to head frag in tcp_try_coalesce
This change reorders the code related to the use of an skb->head_frag so it
is placed before we check the rest of the frags.  This allows the code to
read more linearly instead of like some sort of loop.

c73c3d9c49 tcp: Fix truesize accounting in tcp_try_coalesce
This patch addresses several issues in the way we were tracking the
truesize in tcp_try_coalesce.

First it was using ksize which prevents us from having a 0 sized head frag
and getting a usable result.  To resolve that this patch uses the end
pointer which is set based off either ksize, or the frag_size supplied in
build_skb.  This allows us to compute the original truesize of the entire
buffer and remove that value leaving us with just what was added as pages.

The second issue was the use of skb->len if there is a mergeable head frag.
We should only need to remove the size of an data aligned sk_buff from our
current skb->truesize to compute the delta for a buffer with a reused head.
By using skb->len the value of truesize was being artificially reduced
which means that head frags could use more memory than buffers using
standard allocations.

2996d31f9f net: Stop decapitating clones that have a head_frag
This change is meant ot prevent stealing the skb->head to use as a page in
the event that the skb->head was cloned.  This allows the other clones to
track each other via shinfo->dataref.

Without this we break down to two methods for tracking the reference count,
one being dataref, the other being the page count.  As a result it becomes
difficult to track how many references there are to skb->head.

b081f85c29 net: implement tcp coalescing in tcp_queue_rcv()
Extend tcp coalescing implementing it from tcp_queue_rcv(), the main
receiver function when application is not blocked in recvmsg().

Function tcp_queue_rcv() is moved a bit to allow its call from
tcp_data_queue()

This gives good results especially if GRO could not kick, and if skb
head is a fragment.

923dd347b8 net: take care of cloned skbs in tcp_try_coalesce()
Before stealing fragments or skb head, we must make sure skbs are not
cloned.

Alexander was worried about destination skb being cloned : In bridge
setups, a driver could be fooled if skb->data_len would not match skb
nr_frags.

If source skb is cloned, we must take references on pages instead.

Bug happened using tcpdump (if not using mmap())

Introduce kfree_skb_partial() helper to cleanup code.

750ea2bafa tcp: early retransmit: delayed fast retransmit
Implementing the advanced early retransmit (sysctl_tcp_early_retrans==2).
Delays the fast retransmit by an interval of RTT/4. We borrow the
RTO timer to implement the delay. If we receive another ACK or send
a new packet, the timer is cancelled and restored to original RTO
value offset by time elapsed.  When the delayed-ER timer fires,
we enter fast recovery and perform fast retransmit.

eed530b6c6 tcp: early retransmit
This patch implements RFC 5827 early retransmit (ER) for TCP.
It reduces DUPACK threshold (dupthresh) if outstanding packets are
less than 4 to recover losses by fast recovery instead of timeout.

While the algorithm is simple, small but frequent network reordering
makes this feature dangerous: the connection repeatedly enter
false recovery and degrade performance. Therefore we implement
a mitigation suggested in the appendix of the RFC that delays
entering fast recovery by a small interval, i.e., RTT/4. Currently
ER is conservative and is disabled for the rest of the connection
after the first reordering event. A large scale web server
experiment on the performance impact of ER is summarized in
section 6 of the paper "Proportional Rate Reduction for TCP”,
IMC 2011. http://conferences.sigcomm.org/imc/2011/docs/p155.pdf

Note that Linux has a similar feature called THIN_DUPACK. The
differences are THIN_DUPACK do not mitigate reorderings and is only
used after slow start. Currently ER is disabled if THIN_DUPACK is
enabled. I would be happy to merge THIN_DUPACK feature with ER if
people think it's a good idea.

ER is enabled by sysctl_tcp_early_retrans:
  0: Disables ER

  1: Reduce dupthresh to packets_out - 1 when outstanding packets < 4.

  2: (Default) reduce dupthresh like mode 1. In addition, delay
     entering fast recovery by RTT/4.

Note: mode 2 is implemented in the third part of this patch series.

329033f645 tcp: makes tcp_try_coalesce aware of skb->head_frag
TCP coalesce can check if skb to be merged has its skb->head mapped to a
page fragment, instead of a kmalloc() area.

We had to disable coalescing in this case, for performance reasons.

We 'upgrade' skb->head as a fragment in itself.

This reduces number of cache misses when user makes its copies, since a
less sk_buff are fetched.

This makes receive and ofo queues shorter and thus reduce cache line
misses in TCP stack.

This is a followup of patch "net: allow skb->head to be a page fragment"

Tested with tg3 nic, with GRO on or off. We can see "TCPRcvCoalesce"
counter being incremented.

6746960140 ipv6: RTAX_FEATURE_ALLFRAG causes inefficient TCP segment sizing
Quoting Tore Anderson from :
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42572

When RTAX_FEATURE_ALLFRAG is set on a route, the effective TCP segment
size does not take into account the size of the IPv6 Fragmentation
header that needs to be included in outbound packets, causing every
transmitted TCP segment to be fragmented across two IPv6 packets, the
latter of which will only contain 8 bytes of actual payload.

RTAX_FEATURE_ALLFRAG is typically set on a route in response to
receving a ICMPv6 Packet Too Big message indicating a Path MTU of less
than 1280 bytes. 1280 bytes is the minimum IPv6 MTU, however ICMPv6
PTBs with MTU < 1280 are still valid, in particular when an IPv6
packet is sent to an IPv4 destination through a stateless translator.
Any ICMPv4 Need To Fragment packets originated from the IPv4 part of
the path will be translated to ICMPv6 PTB which may then indicate an
MTU of less than 1280.

The Linux kernel refuses to reduce the effective MTU to anything below
1280 bytes, instead it sets it to exactly 1280 bytes, and
RTAX_FEATURE_ALLFRAG is also set. However, the TCP segment size appears
to be set to 1240 bytes (1280 Path MTU - 40 bytes of IPv6 header),
instead of 1232 (additionally taking into account the 8 bytes required
by the IPv6 Fragmentation extension header).

This in turn results in rather inefficient transmission, as every
transmitted TCP segment now is split in two fragments containing
1232+8 bytes of payload.

After this patch, all the outgoing packets that includes a
Fragmentation header all are "atomic" or "non-fragmented" fragments,
i.e., they both have Offset=0 and More Fragments=0.

Don't pick __u8/__u16 values directly from raw pointers, but instead use
an array of structures of code:value pairs. This is OK, since the buffer
we take options from is not an skb memory, but a user-to-kernel one.

For those options which don't require any value now, require this to be
zero (for potential future extension of this API).

1402d36601 tcp: introduce tcp_try_coalesce
commit c8628155ec (tcp: reduce out_of_order memory use) took care of
coalescing tcp segments provided by legacy devices (linear skbs)

We extend this idea to fragged skbs, as their truesize can be heavy.

ixgbe for example uses 256+1024+PAGE_SIZE/2 = 3328 bytes per segment.

Use this coalescing strategy for receive queue too.

This contributes to reduce number of tcp collapses, at minimal cost, and
reduces memory overhead and packets drops.

da882c1f2e tcp: sk_add_backlog() is too agressive for TCP
While investigating TCP performance problems on 10Gb+ links, we found a
tcp sender was dropping lot of incoming ACKS because of sk_rcvbuf limit
in sk_add_backlog(), especially if receiver doesnt use GRO/LRO and sends
one ACK every two MSS segments.

A sender usually tweaks sk_sndbuf, but sk_rcvbuf stays at its default
value (87380), allowing a too small backlog.

A TCP ACK, even being small, can consume nearly same truesize space than
outgoing packets. Using sk_rcvbuf + sk_sndbuf as a limit makes sense and
is fast to compute.

Performance results on netperf, single flow, receiver with disabled
GRO/LRO : 7500 Mbits instead of 6050 Mbits, no more TCPBacklogDrop
increments at sender.

900f65d361 tcp: move duplicate code from tcp_v4_init_sock()/tcp_v6_init_sock()
This commit moves the (substantial) common code shared between
tcp_v4_init_sock() and tcp_v6_init_sock() to a new address-family
independent function, tcp_init_sock().

Centralizing this functionality should help avoid drift issues,
e.g. where the IPv4 side is updated without a corresponding update to
IPv6. There was already some drift: IPv4 initialized snd_cwnd to
TCP_INIT_CWND, while the IPv6 side was still initializing snd_cwnd to
2 (in this case it should not matter, since snd_cwnd is also
initialized in tcp_init_metrics(), but the general risks and
maintenance overhead remain).

When diffing the old and new code, note that new tcp_init_sock()
function uses the order of steps from the tcp_v4_init_sock()
implementation (the order is slightly different in
tcp_v6_init_sock()).

b139ba4e90 tcp: Repair connection-time negotiated parameters
There are options, which are set up on a socket while performing
TCP handshake. Need to resurrect them on a socket while repairing.
A new sockoption accepts a buffer and parses it. The buffer should
be CODE:VALUE sequence of bytes, where CODE is standard option
code and VALUE is the respective value.

Only 4 options should be handled on repaired socket.

To read 3 out of 4 of these options the TCP_INFO sockoption can be
used. An ability to get the last one (the mss_clamp) was added by
the previous patch.

Now the restore. Three of these options -- timestamp_ok, mss_clamp
and snd_wscale -- are just restored on a coket.

The sack_ok flags has 2 issues. First, whether or not to do sacks
at all. This flag is just read and set back. No other sack  info is
saved or restored, since according to the standart and the code
dropping all sack-ed segments is OK, the sender will resubmit them
again, so after the repair we will probably experience a pause in
connection. Next, the fack bit. It's just set back on a socket if
the respective sysctl is set. No collected stats about packets flow
is preserved. As far as I see (plz, correct me if I'm wrong) the
fack-based congestion algorithm survives dropping all of the stats
and repairs itself eventually, probably losing the performance for
that period.

c0e88ff0f2 tcp: Repair socket queues
Reading queues under repair mode is done with recvmsg call.
The queue-under-repair set by TCP_REPAIR_QUEUE option is used
to determine which queue should be read. Thus both send and
receive queue can be read with this.

Caller must pass the MSG_PEEK flag.

Writing to queues is done with sendmsg call and yet again --
the repair-queue option can be used to push data into the
receive queue.

When putting an skb into receive queue a zero tcp header is
appented to its head to address the tcp_hdr(skb)->syn and
the ->fin checks by the (after repair) tcp_recvmsg. These
flags flags are both set to zero and that's why.

The fin cannot be met in the queue while reading the source
socket, since the repair only works for closed/established
sockets and queueing fin packet always changes its state.

The syn in the queue denotes that the respective skb's seq
is "off-by-one" as compared to the actual payload lenght. Thus,
at the rcv queue refill we can just drop this flag and set the
skb's sequences to precice values.

When the repair mode is turned off, the write queue seqs are
updated so that the whole queue is considered to be 'already sent,
waiting for ACKs' (write_seq = snd_nxt <= snd_una). From the
protocol POV the send queue looks like it was sent, but the data
between the write_seq and snd_nxt is lost in the network.

This helps to avoid another sockoption for setting the snd_nxt
sequence. Leaving the whole queue in a 'not yet sent' state (as
it will be after sendmsg-s) will not allow to receive any acks
from the peer since the ack_seq will be after the snd_nxt. Thus
even the ack for the window probe will be dropped and the
connection will be 'locked' with the zero peer window.

ee9952831c tcp: Initial repair mode
This includes (according the the previous description):

* TCP_REPAIR sockoption

This one just puts the socket in/out of the repair mode.
Allowed for CAP_NET_ADMIN and for closed/establised sockets only.
When repair mode is turned off and the socket happens to be in
the established state the window probe is sent to the peer to
'unlock' the connection.

* TCP_REPAIR_QUEUE sockoption

This one sets the queue which we're about to repair. The
'no-queue' is set by default.

* TCP_QUEUE_SEQ socoption

Sets the write_seq/rcv_nxt of a selected repaired queue.
Allowed for TCP_CLOSE-d sockets only. When the socket changes
its state the other seq-s are changed by the kernel according
to the protocol rules (most of the existing code is actually
reused).

* Ability to forcibly bind a socket to a port

The sk->sk_reuse is set to SK_FORCE_REUSE.

* Immediate connect modification

The connect syscall initializes the connection, then directly jumps
to the code which finalizes it.

* Silent close modification

The close just aborts the connection (similar to SO_LINGER with 0
time) but without sending any FIN/RST-s to peer.

8607ddb867 net ipv4: Convert devinet to use register_net_sysctl
Using an ascii path to register_net_sysctl as opposed to the slightly
awkward ctl_path allows for much simpler code.

We no longer need to malloc dev_name to keep it alive the length of our
sysctl register instead we can use a small temporary buffer on the
stack.

4e5ca78541 net ipv4: Remove the unneeded registration of an empty net/ipv4/neigh
sysctl no longer requires explicit creation of directories.  The neigh
directory is always populated with at least a default entry so this
won't cause any user visible changes.

Delete the ipv4_path and the ipv4_skeleton these are no longer needed.

Directly register the ipv4_route_table.

And since I am an idiot remove the header definitions that I should
have removed in the previous patch.

5dd3df105b net: Move all of the network sysctls without a namespace into init_net.
This makes it clearer which sysctls are relative to your current network
namespace.

This makes it a little less error prone by not exposing sysctls for the
initial network namespace in other namespaces.

This is the same way we handle all of our other network interfaces to
userspace and I can't honestly remember why we didn't do this for
sysctls right from the start.

4344475797 net: Kill register_sysctl_rotable
register_sysctl_rotable never caught on as an interesting way to
register sysctls.  My take on the situation is that what we want are
sysctls that we can only see in the initial network namespace.  What we
have implemented with register_sysctl_rotable are sysctls that we can
see in all of the network namespaces and can only change in the initial
network namespace.

That is a very silly way to go.  Just register the network sysctls
in the initial network namespace and we don't have any weird special
cases to deal with.

The sysctls affected are:
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ipfrag_secret_interval
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ipfrag_max_dist
/proc/sys/net/ipv6/ip6frag_secret_interval
/proc/sys/net/ipv6/mld_max_msf

I really don't expect anyone will miss them if they can't read them in a
child user namespace.

22b4a4f22d tcp: fix retransmit of partially acked frames
Alexander Beregalov reported skb_over_panic errors and provided stack
trace.

I occurs commit a21d45726a (tcp: avoid order-1 allocations on wifi and
tx path) added a regression, when a retransmit is done after a partial
ACK.

tcp_retransmit_skb() tries to aggregate several frames if the first one
has enough available room to hold the following ones payload. This is
controlled by /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_retrans_collapse tunable (default :
enabled)

Problem is we must make sure _pskb_trim_head() doesnt fool
skb_availroom() when pulling some bytes from skb (this pull is done when
receiver ACK part of the frame).

aacd9289af tcp: bind() use stronger condition for bind_conflict
We must try harder to get unique (addr, port) pairs when
doing port autoselection for sockets with SO_REUSEADDR
option set.

We achieve this by adding a relaxation parameter to
inet_csk_bind_conflict. When 'relax' parameter is off
we return a conflict whenever the current searched
pair (addr, port) is not unique.

This tries to address the problems reported in patch:
	8d238b25b1
	Revert "tcp: bind() fix when many ports are bound"

Tests where ran for creating and binding(0) many sockets
on 100 IPs. The results are, on average:

	* 60000 sockets, 600 ports / IP:
		* 0.210 s, 620 (IP, port) duplicates without patch
		* 0.219 s, no duplicates with patch
	* 100000 sockets, 1000 ports / IP:
		* 0.371 s, 1720 duplicates without patch
		* 0.373 s, no duplicates with patch
	* 200000 sockets, 2000 ports / IP:
		* 0.766 s, 6900 duplicates without patch
		* 0.768 s, no duplicates with patch
	* 500000 sockets, 5000 ports / IP:
		* 2.227 s, 41500 duplicates without patch

447167bf56 udp: intoduce udp_encap_needed static_key
Most machines dont use UDP encapsulation (L2TP)

Adds a static_key so that udp_queue_rcv_skb() doesnt have to perform a
test if L2TP never setup the encap_rcv on a socket.

Idea of this patch came after Simon Horman proposal to add a hook on TCP
as well.

If static_key is not yet enabled, the fast path does a single JMP .

When static_key is enabled, JMP destination is patched to reach the real
encap_type/encap_rcv logic, possibly adding cache misses.

 2) Revert ath9k PS idle change, from Sujith Manoharan.

 3) Correct default TCP memory limits (again), from Eric Dumazet.

 4) Fix tcp_rcv_rtt_update() accidental use of unscaled RTT, from Neal
    Cardwell.

 5) We made a facility for layers like wireless to say how much tailroom
    they need in the SKB for link layer stuff such as wireless
    encryption etc., but TCP works hard to fill every SKB out to the end
    defeating this specification.

    This leads to every TCP packet getting reallocated by the wireless
    code in order to have the right amount of tailroom available.

    Fix TCP to only fill SKBs out to the real amount of data area it
    asked for during the allocation, this way it won't eat into the
    slack added for the device's tailroom needs.

    Reported by Marc Merlin and fixed by Eric Dumazet.

a21d45726a tcp: avoid order-1 allocations on wifi and tx path
Marc Merlin reported many order-1 allocations failures in TX path on its
wireless setup, that dont make any sense with MTU=1500 network, and non
SG capable hardware.

After investigation, it turns out TCP uses sk_stream_alloc_skb() and
used as a convention skb_tailroom(skb) to know how many bytes of data
payload could be put in this skb (for non SG capable devices)

Note : these skb used kmalloc-4096 (MTU=1500 + MAX_HEADER +
sizeof(struct skb_shared_info) being above 2048)

Later, mac80211 layer need to add some bytes at the tail of skb
(IEEE80211_ENCRYPT_TAILROOM = 18 bytes) and since no more tailroom is
available has to call pskb_expand_head() and request order-1
allocations.

This patch changes sk_stream_alloc_skb() so that only
sk->sk_prot->max_header bytes of headroom are reserved, and use a new
skb field, avail_size to hold the data payload limit.

This way, order-0 allocations done by TCP stack can leave more than 2 KB
of tailroom and no more allocation is performed in mac80211 layer (or
any layer needing some tailroom)

avail_size is unioned with mark/dropcount, since mark will be set later
in IP stack for output packets. Therefore, skb size is unchanged.
