5ea8ea2cb7 tcp/dccp: drop SYN packets if accept queue is full
Per listen(fd, backlog) rules, there is really no point accepting a SYN,
sending a SYNACK, and dropping the following ACK packet if accept queue
is full, because application is not draining accept queue fast enough.

This behavior is fooling TCP clients that believe they established a
flow, while there is nothing at server side. They might then send about
10 MSS (if using IW10) that will be dropped anyway while server is under
stress.

56989f6d85 genetlink: mark families as __ro_after_init
Now genl_register_family() is the only thing (other than the
users themselves, perhaps, but I didn't find any doing that)
writing to the family struct.

In all families that I found, genl_register_family() is only
called from __init functions (some indirectly, in which case
I've add __init annotations to clarifly things), so all can
actually be marked __ro_after_init.

This protects the data structure from accidental corruption.

a07ea4d994 genetlink: no longer support using static family IDs
Static family IDs have never really been used, the only
use case was the workaround I introduced for those users
that assumed their family ID was also their multicast
group ID.

Additionally, because static family IDs would never be
reserved by the generic netlink code, using a relatively
low ID would only work for built-in families that can be
registered immediately after generic netlink is started,
which is basically only the control family (apart from
the workaround code, which I also had to add code for so
it would reserve those IDs)

Thus, anything other than GENL_ID_GENERATE is flawed and
luckily not used except in the cases I mentioned. Move
those workarounds into a few lines of code, and then get
rid of GENL_ID_GENERATE entirely, making it more robust.

First bug was added in commit ad6f939ab1 ("ip: Add offset parameter to

ip_cmsg_recv_offset(msg, skb, sizeof(struct udphdr));

Then commit e6afc8ace6 ("udp: remove headers from UDP packets before

432490f9d4 net: ip, diag -- Add diag interface for raw sockets
In criu we are actively using diag interface to collect sockets
present in the system when dumping applications. And while for
unix, tcp, udp[lite], packet, netlink it works as expected,
the raw sockets do not have. Thus add it.

v2:
 - add missing sock_put calls in raw_diag_dump_one (by eric.dumazet@)
 - implement @destroy for diag requests (by dsa@)

v3:
 - add export of raw_abort for IPv6 (by dsa@)
 - pass net-admin flag into inet_sk_diag_fill due to
   changes in net-next branch (by dsa@)

v4:
 - use @pad in struct inet_diag_req_v2 for raw socket
   protocol specification: raw module carries sockets
   which may have custom protocol passed from socket()
   syscall and sole @sdiag_protocol is not enough to
   match underlied ones
 - start reporting protocol specifed in socket() call
   when sockets are raw ones for the same reason: user
   space tools like ss may parse this attribute and use
   it for socket matching

v5 (by eric.dumazet@):
 - use sock_hold in raw_sock_get instead of atomic_inc,
   we're holding (raw_v4_hashinfo|raw_v6_hashinfo)->lock
   when looking up so counter won't be zero here.

v6:
 - use sdiag_raw_protocol() helper which will access @pad
   structure used for raw sockets protocol specification:
   we can't simply rename this member without breaking uapi

v7:
 - sine sdiag_raw_protocol() helper is not suitable for
   uapi lets rather make an alias structure with proper
   names. __check_inet_diag_req_raw helper will catch
   if any of structure unintentionally changed.

850cbaddb5 udp: use it's own memory accounting schema
Completely avoid default sock memory accounting and replace it
with udp-specific accounting.

Since the new memory accounting model encapsulates completely
the required locking, remove the socket lock on both enqueue and
dequeue, and avoid using the backlog on enqueue.

Be sure to clean-up rx queue memory on socket destruction, using
udp its own sk_destruct.

Tested using pktgen with random src port, 64 bytes packet,
wire-speed on a 10G link as sender and udp_sink as the receiver,
using an l4 tuple rxhash to stress the contention, and one or more
udp_sink instances with reuseport.

f970bd9e3a udp: implement memory accounting helpers
Avoid using the generic helpers.
Use the receive queue spin lock to protect the memory
accounting operation, both on enqueue and on dequeue.

On dequeue perform partial memory reclaiming, trying to
leave a quantum of forward allocated memory.

On enqueue use a custom helper, to allow some optimizations:
- use a plain spin_lock() variant instead of the slightly
  costly spin_lock_irqsave(),
- avoid dst_force check, since the calling code has already
  dropped the skb dst
- avoid orphaning the skb, since skb_steal_sock() already did
  the work for us

The above needs custom memory reclaiming on shutdown, provided
by the udp_destruct_sock().

v5 -> v6:
  - don't orphan the skb on enqueue

v4 -> v5:
  - replace the mem_lock with the receive queue spin lock
  - ensure that the bh is always allowed to enqueue at least
    a skb, even if sk_rcvbuf is exceeded

v3 -> v4:
  - reworked memory accunting, simplifying the schema
  - provide an helper for both memory scheduling and enqueuing

v1 -> v2:
  - use a udp specific destrctor to perform memory reclaiming
  - remove a couple of helpers, unneeded after the above cleanup
  - do not reclaim memory on dequeue if not under memory
    pressure
  - reworked the fwd accounting schema to avoid potential
    integer overflow

396a30cce1 ipv4: use the right lock for ping_group_range
This reverts commit a681574c99
("ipv4: disable BH in set_ping_group_range()") because we never
read ping_group_range in BH context (unlike local_port_range).

Then, since we already have a lock for ping_group_range, those
using ip_local_ports.lock for ping_group_range are clearly typos.

We might consider to share a same lock for both ping_group_range
and local_port_range w.r.t. space saving, but that should be for
net-next.

286c72deab udp: must lock the socket in udp_disconnect()
Baozeng Ding reported KASAN traces showing uses after free in
udp_lib_get_port() and other related UDP functions.

A CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC=y kernel would eventually crash.

I could write a reproducer with two threads doing :

static int sock_fd;
static void *thr1(void *arg)
{
	for (;;) {
		connect(sock_fd, (const struct sockaddr *)arg,
			sizeof(struct sockaddr_in));
	}
}

static void *thr2(void *arg)
{
	struct sockaddr_in unspec;

	for (;;) {
		memset(&unspec, 0, sizeof(unspec));
	        connect(sock_fd, (const struct sockaddr *)&unspec,
			sizeof(unspec));
        }
}

Problem is that udp_disconnect() could run without holding socket lock,
and this was causing list corruptions.

fcd91dd449 net: add recursion limit to GRO
Currently, GRO can do unlimited recursion through the gro_receive
handlers.  This was fixed for tunneling protocols by limiting tunnel GRO
to one level with encap_mark, but both VLAN and TEB still have this
problem.  Thus, the kernel is vulnerable to a stack overflow, if we
receive a packet composed entirely of VLAN headers.

This patch adds a recursion counter to the GRO layer to prevent stack
overflow.  When a gro_receive function hits the recursion limit, GRO is
aborted for this skb and it is processed normally.  This recursion
counter is put in the GRO CB, but could be turned into a percpu counter
if we run out of space in the CB.

a04a480d43 net: Require exact match for TCP socket lookups if dif is l3mdev
Currently, socket lookups for l3mdev (vrf) use cases can match a socket
that is bound to a port but not a device (ie., a global socket). If the
sysctl tcp_l3mdev_accept is not set this leads to ack packets going out
based on the main table even though the packet came in from an L3 domain.
The end result is that the connection does not establish creating
confusion for users since the service is running and a socket shows in
ss output. Fix by requiring an exact dif to sk_bound_dev_if match if the
skb came through an interface enslaved to an l3mdev device and the
tcp_l3mdev_accept is not set.

skb's through an l3mdev interface are marked by setting a flag in
inet{6}_skb_parm. The IPv6 variant is already set; this patch adds the
flag for IPv4. Using an skb flag avoids a device lookup on the dif. The
flag is set in the VRF driver using the IP{6}CB macros. For IPv4, the
inet_skb_parm struct is moved in the cb per commit 971f10eca1, so the
match function in the TCP stack needs to use TCP_SKB_CB. For IPv6, the
move is done after the socket lookup, so IP6CB is used.

The flags field in inet_skb_parm struct needs to be increased to add
another flag. There is currently a 1-byte hole following the flags,
so it can be expanded to u16 without increasing the size of the struct.

81243eacfa cred: simpler, 1D supplementary groups
Current supplementary groups code can massively overallocate memory and
is implemented in a way so that access to individual gid is done via 2D
array.

If number of gids is <= 32, memory allocation is more or less tolerable
(140/148 bytes).  But if it is not, code allocates full page (!)
regardless and, what's even more fun, doesn't reuse small 32-entry
array.

2D array means dependent shifts, loads and LEAs without possibility to
optimize them (gid is never known at compile time).

All of the above is unnecessary.  Switch to the usual
trailing-zero-len-array scheme.  Memory is allocated with
kmalloc/vmalloc() and only as much as needed.  Accesses become simpler
(LEA 8(gi,idx,4) or even without displacement).

Maximum number of gids is 65536 which translates to 256KB+8 bytes.  I
think kernel can handle such allocation.

On my usual desktop system with whole 9 (nine) aux groups, struct
group_info shrinks from 148 bytes to 44 bytes, yay!

Nice side effects:

 - "gi->gid[i]" is shorter than "GROUP_AT(gi, i)", less typing,

 - fix little mess in net/ipv4/ping.c
   should have been using GROUP_AT macro but this point becomes moot,

 - aux group allocation is persistent and should be accounted as such.

25869262ef skb_splice_bits(): get rid of callback
since pipe_lock is the outermost now, we don't need to drop/regain
socket locks around the call of splice_to_pipe() from skb_splice_bits(),
which kills the need to have a socket-specific callback; we can just
call splice_to_pipe() and be done with that.

3acf3ec3f4 tcp: Change txhash on every SYN and RTO retransmit
The current code changes txhash (flowlables) on every retransmitted
SYN/ACK, but only after the 2nd retransmitted SYN and only after
tcp_retries1 RTO retransmits.

With this patch:
1) txhash is changed with every SYN retransmits
2) txhash is changed with every RTO.

The result is that we can start re-routing around failed (or very
congested paths) as soon as possible. Otherwise application health
checks may fail and the connection may be terminated before we start
to change txhash.

v4: Removed sysctl, txhash is changed for all RTOs
v3: Removed text saying default value of sysctl is 0 (it is 100)
v2: Added sysctl documentation and cleaned code

Tested with packetdrill tests

2cf750704b ipmr, ip6mr: fix scheduling while atomic and a deadlock with ipmr_get_route
Since the commit below the ipmr/ip6mr rtnl_unicast() code uses the portid
instead of the previous dst_pid which was copied from in_skb's portid.
Since the skb is new the portid is 0 at that point so the packets are sent
to the kernel and we get scheduling while atomic or a deadlock (depending
on where it happens) by trying to acquire rtnl two times.
Also since this is RTM_GETROUTE, it can be triggered by a normal user.

Here's the sleeping while atomic trace:

So move NF_LOG_XXX macro definitions to the uapi/../nf_log.h. In
order to keep consistent with other modules, change NF_LOG_MASK to
refer to all supported log flags. On the other hand, add a new
NF_LOG_DEFAULT_MASK to refer to the original default log flags.

Finally, if user specify the unsupported log flags or NFTA_LOG_GROUP
and NFTA_LOG_FLAGS are set at the same time, report EINVAL to the

7a682575ad netfilter: xt_socket: fix transparent match for IPv6 request sockets
The introduction of TCP_NEW_SYN_RECV state, and the addition of request
sockets to the ehash table seems to have broken the --transparent option
of the socket match for IPv6 (around commit a9407000).

Now that the socket lookup finds the TCP_NEW_SYN_RECV socket instead of the
listener, the --transparent option tries to match on the no_srccheck flag
of the request socket.

Unfortunately, that flag was only set for IPv4 sockets in tcp_v4_init_req()
by copying the transparent flag of the listener socket. This effectively
causes '-m socket --transparent' not match on the ACK packet sent by the
client in a TCP handshake.

Based on the suggestion from Eric Dumazet, this change moves the code
initializing no_srccheck to tcp_conn_request(), rendering the above
scenario working again.

2fe664f1fc tcp: fix wrong checksum calculation on MTU probing
With TCP MTU probing enabled and offload TX checksumming disabled,
tcp_mtu_probe() calculated the wrong checksum when a fragment being copied
into the probe's SKB had an odd length. This was caused by the direct use
of skb_copy_and_csum_bits() to calculate the checksum, as it pads the
fragment being copied, if needed. When this fragment was not the last, a
subsequent call used the previous checksum without considering this
padding.

The effect was a stale connection in one way, as even retransmissions
wouldn't solve the problem, because the checksum was never recalculated for
the full SKB length.

f9616c35a0 tcp: implement TSQ for retransmits
We saw sch_fq drops caused by the per flow limit of 100 packets and TCP
when dealing with large cwnd and bursts of retransmits.

Even after increasing the limit to 1000, and even after commit
10d3be5692 ("tcp-tso: do not split TSO packets at retransmit time"),
we can still have these drops.

Under certain conditions, TCP can spend a considerable amount of
time queuing thousands of skbs in a single tcp_xmit_retransmit_queue()
invocation, incurring latency spikes and stalls of other softirq
handlers.

This patch implements TSQ for retransmits, limiting number of packets
and giving more chance for scheduling packets in both ways.

returned as an absolute value but that is meaningless to user-space as it
doesn't allow to see how old exactly an entry is. Let's make it similar to
how the bridge returns such values and make it relative to "now" (jiffies).
This allows us to show the actual age of the entries and is much more
useful (e.g. user-space daemons can age out entries, iproute2 can display
the lastuse properly).

0f8782ea14 tcp_bbr: add BBR congestion control
This commit implements a new TCP congestion control algorithm: BBR
(Bottleneck Bandwidth and RTT). A detailed description of BBR will be
published in ACM Queue, Vol. 14 No. 5, September-October 2016, as
"BBR: Congestion-Based Congestion Control".

BBR has significantly increased throughput and reduced latency for
connections on Google's internal backbone networks and google.com and
YouTube Web servers.

BBR requires only changes on the sender side, not in the network or
the receiver side. Thus it can be incrementally deployed on today's
Internet, or in datacenters.

The Internet has predominantly used loss-based congestion control
(largely Reno or CUBIC) since the 1980s, relying on packet loss as the
signal to slow down. While this worked well for many years, loss-based
congestion control is unfortunately out-dated in today's networks. On
today's Internet, loss-based congestion control causes the infamous
bufferbloat problem, often causing seconds of needless queuing delay,
since it fills the bloated buffers in many last-mile links. On today's
high-speed long-haul links using commodity switches with shallow
buffers, loss-based congestion control has abysmal throughput because
it over-reacts to losses caused by transient traffic bursts.

In 1981 Kleinrock and Gale showed that the optimal operating point for
a network maximizes delivered bandwidth while minimizing delay and
loss, not only for single connections but for the network as a
whole. Finding that optimal operating point has been elusive, since
any single network measurement is ambiguous: network measurements are
the result of both bandwidth and propagation delay, and those two
cannot be measured simultaneously.

While it is impossible to disambiguate any single bandwidth or RTT
measurement, a connection's behavior over time tells a clearer
story. BBR uses a measurement strategy designed to resolve this
ambiguity. It combines these measurements with a robust servo loop
using recent control systems advances to implement a distributed
congestion control algorithm that reacts to actual congestion, not
packet loss or transient queue delay, and is designed to converge with
high probability to a point near the optimal operating point.

In a nutshell, BBR creates an explicit model of the network pipe by
sequentially probing the bottleneck bandwidth and RTT. On the arrival
of each ACK, BBR derives the current delivery rate of the last round
trip, and feeds it through a windowed max-filter to estimate the
bottleneck bandwidth. Conversely it uses a windowed min-filter to
estimate the round trip propagation delay. The max-filtered bandwidth
and min-filtered RTT estimates form BBR's model of the network pipe.

Using its model, BBR sets control parameters to govern sending
behavior. The primary control is the pacing rate: BBR applies a gain
multiplier to transmit faster or slower than the observed bottleneck
bandwidth. The conventional congestion window (cwnd) is now the
secondary control; the cwnd is set to a small multiple of the
estimated BDP (bandwidth-delay product) in order to allow full
utilization and bandwidth probing while bounding the potential amount
of queue at the bottleneck.

When a BBR connection starts, it enters STARTUP mode and applies a
high gain to perform an exponential search to quickly probe the
bottleneck bandwidth (doubling its sending rate each round trip, like
slow start). However, instead of continuing until it fills up the
buffer (i.e. a loss), or until delay or ACK spacing reaches some
threshold (like Hystart), it uses its model of the pipe to estimate
when that pipe is full: it estimates the pipe is full when it notices
the estimated bandwidth has stopped growing. At that point it exits
STARTUP and enters DRAIN mode, where it reduces its pacing rate to
drain the queue it estimates it has created.

Then BBR enters steady state. In steady state, PROBE_BW mode cycles
between first pacing faster to probe for more bandwidth, then pacing
slower to drain any queue that created if no more bandwidth was
available, and then cruising at the estimated bandwidth to utilize the
pipe without creating excess queue. Occasionally, on an as-needed
basis, it sends significantly slower to probe for RTT (PROBE_RTT
mode).

BBR has been fully deployed on Google's wide-area backbone networks
and we're experimenting with BBR on Google.com and YouTube on a global
scale.  Replacing CUBIC with BBR has resulted in significant
improvements in network latency and application (RPC, browser, and
video) metrics. For more details please refer to our upcoming ACM
Queue publication.

Example performance results, to illustrate the difference between BBR
and CUBIC:

Resilience to random loss (e.g. from shallow buffers):
  Consider a netperf TCP_STREAM test lasting 30 secs on an emulated
  path with a 10Gbps bottleneck, 100ms RTT, and 1% packet loss
  rate. CUBIC gets 3.27 Mbps, and BBR gets 9150 Mbps (2798x higher).

Low latency with the bloated buffers common in today's last-mile links:
  Consider a netperf TCP_STREAM test lasting 120 secs on an emulated
  path with a 10Mbps bottleneck, 40ms RTT, and 1000-packet bottleneck
  buffer. Both fully utilize the bottleneck bandwidth, but BBR
  achieves this with a median RTT 25x lower (43 ms instead of 1.09
  secs).

Our long-term goal is to improve the congestion control algorithms
used on the Internet. We are hopeful that BBR can help advance the
efforts toward this goal, and motivate the community to do further
research.

Test results, performance evaluations, feedback, and BBR-related
discussions are very welcome in the public e-mail list for BBR:

NOTE: BBR *must* be used with the fq qdisc ("man tc-fq") with pacing
enabled, since pacing is integral to the BBR design and
implementation. BBR without pacing would not function properly, and
may incur unnecessary high packet loss rates.
