When the number of dentry cache hash table entries gets too high
(2147483648 entries), as happens by default on a 16TB system, use of a
signed integer in the dcache_init() initialization loop prevents the
dentry_hashtable from getting initialized, causing a panic in
__d_lookup().  Fix this in dcache_init() and similar areas.

sysctl_tcp_mem() initialization was moved to sysctl_tcp_ipv4.c
in commit 3dc43e3e, since it
became a per-ns value.

That code, however, will never run when CONFIG_SYSCTL is
disabled, leading to bogus values on those fields - causing hung
TCP sockets.

This patch fixes it by keeping an initialization code in
tcp_init(). It will be overwritten by the first net namespace
init if CONFIG_SYSCTL is compiled in, and do the right thing if
it is compiled out.

It is also named properly as tcp_init_mem(), to properly signal
its non-sysctl side effect on TCP limits.

tcp_sendmsg() uses select_size() helper to choose skb head size when a
new skb must be allocated.

If GSO is enabled for the socket, current strategy is to force all
payload data to be outside of headroom, in PAGE fragments.

This strategy is not welcome for small packets, wasting memory.

Experiments show that best results are obtained when using 2048 bytes
for skb head (This includes the skb overhead and various headers)

This patch provides better len/truesize ratios for packets sent to
loopback device, and reduce memory needs for in-flight loopback packets,
particularly on arches with big pages.

If a sender sends many 1-byte packets to an unresponsive application,
receiver rmem_alloc will grow faster and will stop queuing these packets
sooner, or will collapse its receive queue to free excess memory.

netperf -t TCP_RR results are improved by ~4 %, and many workloads are
improved as well (tbench, mysql...)

Current tcp/udp/sctp global memory limits are not taking into account
hugepages allocations, and allow 50% of ram to be used by buffers of a
single protocol [ not counting space used by sockets / inodes ...]

Lets use nr_free_buffer_pages() and allow a default of 1/8 of kernel ram
per protocol, and a minimum of 128 pages.
Heavy duty machines sysadmins probably need to tweak limits anyway.

This patch uses __copy_from_user_nocache on transmit to bypass data
cache for a performance improvement.  skb_add_data_nocache and
skb_copy_to_page_nocache can be called by sendmsg functions to use
this feature, initial support is in tcp_sendmsg.  This functionality is
configurable per device using ethtool.

Presumably, this feature would only be useful when the driver does
not touch the data.  The feature is turned on by default if a device
indicates that it does some form of checksum offload; it is off by
default for devices that do no checksum offload or indicate no checksum
is necessary.  For the former case copy-checksum is probably done
anyway, in the latter case the device is likely loopback in which case
the no cache copy is probably not beneficial.

This patch was tested using 200 instances of netperf TCP_RR with
1400 byte request and one byte reply.  Platform is 16 core AMD x86.

No-cache copy disabled:
   672703 tps, 97.13% utilization
   50/90/99% latency:244.31 484.205 1028.41

No-cache copy enabled:
   702113 tps, 96.16% utilization,
   50/90/99% latency 238.56 467.56 956.955

Using 14000 byte request and response sizes demonstrate the
effects more dramatically:

No-cache copy disabled:
   79571 tps, 34.34 %utlization
   50/90/95% latency 1584.46 2319.59 5001.76

No-cache copy enabled:
   83856 tps, 34.81% utilization
   50/90/95% latency 2508.42 2622.62 2735.88

Note especially the effect on latency tail (95th percentile).

This seems to provide a nice performance improvement and is
consistent in the tests I ran.  Presumably, this would provide
the greatest benfits in the presence of an application workload
stressing the cache and a lot of transmit data happening.

tcp_sendmsg() truncates iov_len to an 'int' which a 4GB write to write
zero bytes, for example.

There is also the problem higher up of how verify_iovec() works.  It
wants to prevent the total length from looking like an error return
value.

However it does this using 'int', but syscalls return 'long' (and
thus signed 64-bit on 64-bit machines).  So it could trigger
false-positives on 64-bit as written.  So fix it to use 'long'.

This patch provides a "user timeout" support as described in RFC793. The
socket option is also needed for the the local half of RFC5482 "TCP User
Timeout Option".

TCP_USER_TIMEOUT is a TCP level socket option that takes an unsigned int,
when > 0, to specify the maximum amount of time in ms that transmitted
data may remain unacknowledged before TCP will forcefully close the
corresponding connection and return ETIMEDOUT to the application. If
0 is given, TCP will continue to use the system default.

Increasing the user timeouts allows a TCP connection to survive extended
periods without end-to-end connectivity. Decreasing the user timeouts
allows applications to "fail fast" if so desired. Otherwise it may take
upto 20 minutes with the current system defaults in a normal WAN
environment.

The socket option can be made during any state of a TCP connection, but
is only effective during the synchronized states of a connection
(ESTABLISHED, FIN-WAIT-1, FIN-WAIT-2, CLOSE-WAIT, CLOSING, or LAST-ACK).
Moreover, when used with the TCP keepalive (SO_KEEPALIVE) option,
TCP_USER_TIMEOUT will overtake keepalive to determine when to close a
connection due to keepalive failure.

The option does not change in anyway when TCP retransmits a packet, nor
when a keepalive probe will be sent.

This option, like many others, will be inherited by an acceptor from its
listener.

FreeBSD, Solaris, Mac doesn't. because Ruby's write() method call
select() internally. and tcp_poll has a bug.

SUS defined 'ready for writing' of select() as following.

|  A descriptor shall be considered ready for writing when a call to an output
|  function with O_NONBLOCK clear would not block, whether or not the function
|  would transfer data successfully.

That said, EPIPE situation is clearly one of 'ready for writing'.

We don't have read-side issue because tcp_poll() already has read side
shutdown care.

|        if (sk->sk_shutdown & RCV_SHUTDOWN)

As discovered by Anton Blanchard, current code to autotune 
tcp_death_row.sysctl_max_tw_buckets, sysctl_tcp_max_orphans and
sysctl_max_syn_backlog makes little sense.

The bigger a page is, the less tcp_max_orphans is : 4096 on a 512GB
machine in Anton's case.

(tcp_hashinfo.bhash_size * sizeof(struct inet_bind_hashbucket))
is much bigger if spinlock debugging is on. Its wrong to select bigger
limits in this case (where kernel structures are also bigger)

bhash_size max is 65536, and we get this value even for small machines. 

A better ground is to use size of ehash table, this also makes code
shorter and more obvious.

i've found that tcp_close() can be called for an already closed
socket, but still sends reset in this case (tcp_send_active_reset())
which seems to be incorrect.  Moreover, a packet with reset is sent
with different source port as original port number has been already
cleared on socket.  Besides that incrementing stat counter for
LINUX_MIB_TCPABORTONCLOSE also does not look correct in this case.

Initially this issue was found on 2.6.18-x RHEL5 kernel, but the same
seems to be true for the current mainstream kernel (checked on
2.6.35-rc3).  Please, correct me if i missed something.

How that happens:

1) the server receives a packet for socket in TCP_CLOSE_WAIT state
   that triggers a tcp_reset():

                tcp_reset(sk);
                goto discard;
        }
...
---------------------------------
tcp_rcv_state_process
 tcp_reset
  tcp_done
   tcp_set_state(sk, TCP_CLOSE);
     inet_put_port
      __inet_put_port
       inet_sk(sk)->num = 0;

   sk->sk_shutdown = SHUTDOWN_MASK;

2) After that the process (socket owner) tries to write something to
   that socket and "inet_autobind" sets a _new_ (which differs from
   the original!) port number for the socket:

 Call Trace:

3) sendmsg fails at last with -EPIPE (=> 'write' returns -EPIPE in userspace):

tcp_sendmsg()
...
        /* Wait for a connection to finish. */
        if ((1 << sk->sk_state) & ~(TCPF_ESTABLISHED | TCPF_CLOSE_WAIT)) {
                int old_state = sk->sk_state;
                if ((err = sk_stream_wait_connect(sk, &timeo)) != 0) {
if (f_d && (err == -EPIPE)) {
        printk("F: tcp_sendmsg1 -EPIPE: sk=%p, sport=%u, old_state=%d, new_state=%d, "
                "sk_err=%d, sk_shutdown=%d\n",
                sk, ntohs(inet_sk(sk)->sport), old_state, sk->sk_state,
                sk->sk_err, sk->sk_shutdown);
        dump_stack();
}
                        goto out_err;
                }
        }
...

4) Then the process (socket owner) understands that it's time to close
   that socket and does that (and thus triggers sending reset packet):

Call Trace:
...

 [<ffffffff8001eff6>] sys_close+0x85/0xc7
 [<ffffffff800622dd>] tracesys+0xd5/0xe0

So, in brief:

* a received packet for socket in TCP_CLOSE_WAIT state triggers
  tcp_reset() which clears inet_sk(sk)->num and put socket into
  TCP_CLOSE state

* an attempt to write to that socket forces inet_autobind() to get a
  new port (but the write itself fails with -EPIPE)

* tcp_close() called for socket in TCP_CLOSE state sends an active
  reset via socket with newly allocated port

This adds an additional check in tcp_close() for already closed
sockets. We do not want to send anything to closed sockets.
