I've seen several attempts recently made to do quick failover of sctp transports by reducing various retransmit timers and counters. While its possible to implement a faster failover on multihomed sctp associations, its not particularly robust, in that it can lead to unneeded retransmits, as well as false connection failures due to intermittent latency on a network. Instead, lets implement the new ietf quick failover draft found here: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-nishida-tsvwg-sctp-failover-05 This will let the sctp stack identify transports that have had a small number of errors, and avoid using them quickly until their reliability can be re-established. I've tested this out on two virt guests connected via multiple isolated virt networks and believe its in compliance with the above draft and works well.

Fix race condition in several network drivers when reading stats on 32bit UP architectures. These drivers update their stats in a BH context and therefore should use u64_stats_fetch_begin_bh/u64_stats_fetch_retry_bh instead of u64_stats_fetch_begin/u64_stats_fetch_retry when reading the stats.

At the point where it was used, skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_type referred to a post-GSO sk_buff. Thus, it would always be 0. We want to know the pre-GSO gso_type, so we need to obtain it before segmenting. Before this change, the kernel would pass inconsistent data to userspace: packets for UDP fragments with nonzero offset would be passed along with flow keys that indicate a zero offset (that is, the flow key for "later" fragments claimed to be "first" fragments). This inconsistency tended to confuse Open vSwitch userspace, causing it to log messages about "failed to flow_del" the flows with "later" fragments.

This patch fixes a crash tun_chr_close -> netdev_run_todo -> tun_free_netdev -> sk_release_kernel -> sock_release -> iput(SOCK_INODE(sock)) introduced by commit 1ab5ecb9 The problem is that this socket is embedded in struct tun_struct, it has no inode, iput is called on invalid inode, which modifies invalid memory and optionally causes a crash. sock_release also decrements sockets_in_use, this causes a bug that "sockets: used" field in /proc/*/net/sockstat keeps on decreasing when creating and closing tun devices. This patch introduces a flag SOCK_EXTERNALLY_ALLOCATED that instructs sock_release to not free the inode and not decrement sockets_in_use, fixing both memory corruption and sockets_in_use underflow. It should be backported to 3.3 an 3.4 stabke. Signed-off-by: NMikulas Patocka <mikulas@artax.karlin.mff.cuni.cz> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Modern TCP stack highly depends on tcp_write_timer() having a small latency, but current implementation doesn't exactly meet the expectations. When a timer fires but finds the socket is owned by the user, it rearms itself for an additional delay hoping next run will be more successful. tcp_write_timer() for example uses a 50ms delay for next try, and it defeats many attempts to get predictable TCP behavior in term of latencies. Use the recently introduced tcp_release_cb(), so that the user owning the socket will call various handlers right before socket release. This will permit us to post a followup patch to address the tcp_tso_should_defer() syndrome (some deferred packets have to wait RTO timer to be transmitted, while cwnd should allow us to send them sooner) Signed-off-by: NEric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: Tom Herbert <therbert@google.com> Cc: Yuchung Cheng <ycheng@google.com> Cc: Neal Cardwell <ncardwell@google.com> Cc: Nandita Dukkipati <nanditad@google.com> Cc: H.K.

On paths with firewalls dropping SYN with data or experimental TCP options, Fast Open connections will have experience SYN timeout and bad performance. The solution is to track such incidents in the cookie cache and disables Fast Open temporarily. Since only the original SYN includes data and/or Fast Open option, the SYN-ACK has some tell-tale sign (tcp_rcv_fastopen_synack()) to detect such drops. If a path has recurring Fast Open SYN drops, Fast Open is disabled for 2^(recurring_losses) minutes starting from four minutes up to roughly one and half day. sendmsg with MSG_FASTOPEN flag will succeed but it behaves as connect() then write().

sendmsg() (or sendto()) with MSG_FASTOPEN is a combo of connect(2) and write(2). The application should replace connect() with it to send data in the opening SYN packet. For blocking socket, sendmsg() blocks until all the data are buffered locally and the handshake is completed like connect() call. It returns similar errno like connect() if the TCP handshake fails. For non-blocking socket, it returns the number of bytes queued (and transmitted in the SYN-data packet) if cookie is available. If cookie is not available, it transmits a data-less SYN packet with Fast Open cookie request option and returns -EINPROGRESS like connect(). Using MSG_FASTOPEN on connecting or connected socket will result in simlar errno like repeating connect() calls. Therefore the application should only use this flag on new sockets. The buffer size of sendmsg() is independent of the MSS of the connection. Signed-off-by: NYuchung Cheng <ycheng@google.com> Acked-by: NEric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

This patch implements sending SYN-data in tcp_connect(). The data is from tcp_sendmsg() with flag MSG_FASTOPEN (implemented in a later patch). The length of the cookie in tcp_fastopen_req, init'd to 0, controls the type of the SYN. If the cookie is not cached (len==0), the host sends data-less SYN with Fast Open cookie request option to solicit a cookie from the remote. If cookie is not available (len > 0), the host sends a SYN-data with Fast Open cookie option. If cookie length is negative, the SYN will not include any Fast Open option (for fall back operations). To deal with middleboxes that may drop SYN with data or experimental TCP option, the SYN-data is only sent once. SYN retransmits do not include data or Fast Open options. The connection will fall back to regular TCP handshake. Signed-off-by: NYuchung Cheng <ycheng@google.com> Acked-by: NEric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

This patch impelements the common code for both the client and server. 1. TCP Fast Open option processing. Since Fast Open does not have an option number assigned by IANA yet, it shares the experiment option code 254 by implementing draft-ietf-tcpm-experimental-options with a 16 bits magic number 0xF989. This enables global experiments without clashing the scarce(2) experimental options available for TCP. When the draft status becomes standard (maybe), the client should switch to the new option number assigned while the server supports both numbers for transistion. 2. The new sysctl tcp_fastopen 3.

tcp_v4_send_reset() and tcp_v4_send_ack() use a single socket per network namespace. This leads to bad behavior on multiqueue NICS, because many cpus contend for the socket lock and once socket lock is acquired, extra false sharing on various socket fields slow down the operations. To better resist to attacks, we use a percpu socket. Each cpu can run without contention, using appropriate memory (local node) Additional features : 1) We also mirror the queue_mapping of the incoming skb, so that answers use the same queue if possible. 2) Setting SOCK_USE_WRITE_QUEUE socket flag speedup sock_wfree() 3) We now limit the number of in-flight RST/ACK [1] packets per cpu, instead of per namespace, and we honor the sysctl_wmem_default limit dynamically. (Prior to this patch, sysctl_wmem_default value was copied at boot time, so any further change would not affect tcp_sock limit) [1] These packets are only generated when no socket was matched for the incoming packet.

As reported by Alan Cox, and verified by Lin Ming, when a user attempts to add a CIPSO option to a socket using the CIPSO_V4_TAG_LOCAL tag the kernel dies a terrible death when it attempts to follow a NULL pointer (the skb argument to cipso_v4_validate() is NULL when called via the setsockopt() syscall). This patch fixes this by first checking to ensure that the skb is non-NULL before using it to find the incoming network interface. In the unlikely case where the skb is NULL and the user attempts to add a CIPSO option with the _TAG_LOCAL tag we return an error as this is not something we want to allow.
