ipv4: Namespaceify tcp_tw_reuse knob

2016-12-27T17:28:07+00:00

Different namespaces might have different requirements to reuse TIME-WAIT sockets for new connections. This might be required in cases where different namespace applications are in place which require TIME_WAIT socket connections to be reduced independently of the host.

tcp: randomize tcp timestamp offsets for each connection

2016-12-02T17:49:59+00:00

jiffies based timestamps allow for easy inference of number of devices behind NAT translators and also makes tracking of hosts simpler. commit ceaa1fef65a7c2e ("tcp: adding a per-socket timestamp offset") added the main infrastructure that is needed for per-connection ts randomization, in particular writing/reading the on-wire tcp header format takes the offset into account so rest of stack can use normal tcp_time_stamp (jiffies). So only two items are left: - add a tsoffset for request sockets - extend the tcp isn generator to also return another 32bit number in addition to the ISN. Re-use of ISN generator also means timestamps are still monotonically increasing for same connection quadruple, i.e. PAWS will still work. Includes fixes from Eric Dumazet.

tcp: instrument how long TCP is busy sending

2016-11-30T15:04:24+00:00

This patch measures TCP busy time, which is defined as the period of time when sender has data (or FIN) to send. The time starts when data is buffered and stops when the write queue is flushed by ACKs or error events. Note the busy time does not include SYN time, unless data is included in SYN (i.e. Fast Open). It does include FIN time even if the FIN carries no payload. Excluding pure FIN is possible but would incur one additional test in the fast path, which may not be worth it.

tcp: instrument tcp sender limits chronographs

2016-11-30T15:04:24+00:00

This patch implements the skeleton of the TCP chronograph instrumentation on sender side limits: 1) idle (unspec) 2) busy sending data other than 3-4 below 3) rwnd-limited 4) sndbuf-limited The limits are enumerated 'tcp_chrono'. Since a connection in theory can idle forever, we do not track the actual length of this uninteresting idle period. For the rest we track how long the sender spends in each limit. At any point during the life time of a connection, the sender must be in one of the four states. If there are multiple conditions worthy of tracking in a chronograph then the highest priority enum takes precedence over the other conditions. So that if something "more interesting" starts happening, stop the previous chrono and start a new one. The time unit is jiffy(u32) in order to save space in tcp_sock. This implies application must sample the stats no longer than every 49 days of 1ms jiffy.

tcp: make undo_cwnd mandatory for congestion modules

2016-11-21T18:20:17+00:00

The undo_cwnd fallback in the stack doubles cwnd based on ssthresh, which un-does reno halving behaviour. It seems more appropriate to let congctl algorithms pair .ssthresh and .undo_cwnd properly. Add a 'tcp_reno_undo_cwnd' function and wire it up for all congestion algorithms that used to rely on the fallback.

tcp: take care of truncations done by sk_filter()

2016-11-13T17:30:02+00:00

With syzkaller help, Marco Grassi found a bug in TCP stack, crashing in tcp_collapse() Root cause is that sk_filter() can truncate the incoming skb, but TCP stack was not really expecting this to happen. It probably was expecting a simple DROP or ACCEPT behavior. We first need to make sure no part of TCP header could be removed. Then we need to adjust TCP_SKB_CB(skb)->end_seq Many thanks to syzkaller team and Marco for giving us a reproducer.

net: Require exact match for TCP socket lookups if dif is l3mdev

2016-10-17T14:17:05+00:00

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 971f10eca186, 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.

tcp: new CC hook to set sending rate with rate_sample in any CA state

2016-09-21T04:23:01+00:00

This commit introduces an optional new "omnipotent" hook, cong_control(), for congestion control modules. The cong_control() function is called at the end of processing an ACK (i.e., after updating sequence numbers, the SACK scoreboard, and loss detection). At that moment we have precise delivery rate information the congestion control module can use to control the sending behavior (using cwnd, TSO skb size, and pacing rate) in any CA state. This function can also be used by a congestion control that prefers not to use the default cwnd reduction approach (i.e., the PRR algorithm) during CA_Recovery to control the cwnd and sending rate during loss recovery. We take advantage of the fact that recent changes defer the retransmission or transmission of new data (e.g. by F-RTO) in recovery until the new tcp_cong_control() function is run. With this commit, we only run tcp_update_pacing_rate() if the congestion control is not using this new API. New congestion controls which use the new API do not want the TCP stack to run the default pacing rate calculation and overwrite whatever pacing rate they have chosen at initialization time.

tcp: allow congestion control to expand send buffer differently

2016-09-21T04:23:01+00:00

Currently the TCP send buffer expands to twice cwnd, in order to allow limited transmits in the CA_Recovery state. This assumes that cwnd does not increase in the CA_Recovery. For some congestion control algorithms, like the upcoming BBR module, if the losses in recovery do not indicate congestion then we may continue to raise cwnd multiplicatively in recovery. In such cases the current multiplier will falsely limit the sending rate, much as if it were limited by the application. This commit adds an optional congestion control callback to use a different multiplier to expand the TCP send buffer. For congestion control modules that do not specificy this callback, TCP continues to use the previous default of 2.
