Issue here is that keepalive timer needs to be updated to not attempt

prequeue is a tcp receive optimization that moves part of rx processing
from bh to process context.

This only works if the socket being processed belongs to a process that
is blocked in recv on that socket.

In practice, this doesn't happen anymore that often because nowadays
servers tend to use an event driven (epoll) model.

Even normal client applications (web browsers) commonly use many tcp
connections in parallel.

This has measureable impact only in netperf (which uses plain recv and
thus allows prequeue use) from host to locally running vm (~4%), however,
there were no changes when using netperf between two physical hosts with
ixgbe interfaces.

After the mentioned commit, some of our packetdrill tests became flaky.

TCP_SYNCNT socket option can limit the number of SYN retransmits.

retransmits_timed_out() has to compare times computations based on
local_clock() while timers are based on jiffies. With NTP adjustments
and roundings we can observe 999 ms delay for 1000 ms timers.
We end up sending one extra SYN packet.

Gimmick added in commit 6fa12c85 ("Revert Backoff [v3]: Calculate
TCP's connection close threshold as a time value") makes no
real sense for TCP_SYN_SENT sockets where no RTO backoff can happen at
all.

Lets use a simpler logic for TCP_SYN_SENT sockets and remove @syn_set
parameter from retransmits_timed_out()

TCP Timestamps option is defined in RFC 7323

Traditionally on linux, it has been tied to the internal
'jiffies' variable, because it had been a cheap and good enough
generator.

For TCP flows on the Internet, 1 ms resolution would be much better
than 4ms or 10ms (HZ=250 or HZ=100 respectively)

For TCP flows in the DC, Google has used usec resolution for more
than two years with great success [1]

Receive size autotuning (DRS) is indeed more precise and converges
faster to optimal window size.

This patch converts tp->tcp_mstamp to a plain u64 value storing
a 1 usec TCP clock.

This choice will allow us to upstream the 1 usec TS option as
discussed in IETF 97.

BBR congestion control depends on pacing, and pacing is
currently handled by sch_fq packet scheduler for performance reasons,
and also because implemening pacing with FQ was convenient to truly
avoid bursts.

However there are many cases where this packet scheduler constraint
is not practical.
- Many linux hosts are not focusing on handling thousands of TCP
  flows in the most efficient way.
- Some routers use fq_codel or other AQM, but still would like
  to use BBR for the few TCP flows they initiate/terminate.

This patch implements an automatic fallback to internal pacing.

Pacing is requested either by BBR or use of SO_MAX_PACING_RATE option.

If sch_fq happens to be in the egress path, pacing is delegated to
the qdisc, otherwise pacing is done by TCP itself.

One advantage of pacing from TCP stack is to get more precise rtt
estimations, and less work done from TX completion, since TCP Small
queue limits are not generally hit. Setups with single TX queue but
many cpus might even benefit from this.

Note that unlike sch_fq, we do not take into account header sizes.
Taking care of these headers would add additional complexity for
no practical differences in behavior.

Some performance numbers using 800 TCP_STREAM flows rate limited to
~48 Mbit per second on 40Gbit NIC.

If MQ+pfifo_fast is used on the NIC :

This patch removes the support of RFC5827 early retransmit (i.e.,
fast recovery on small inflight with <3 dupacks) because it is
subsumed by the new RACK loss detection. More specifically when
RACK receives DUPACKs, it'll arm a reordering timer to start fast
recovery after a quarter of (min)RTT, hence it covers the early
retransmit except RACK does not limit itself to specific inflight
or dupack numbers.

This patch makes RACK install a reordering timer when it suspects
some packets might be lost, but wants to delay the decision
a little bit to accomodate reordering.

It does not create a new timer but instead repurposes the existing
RTO timer, because both are meant to retransmit packets.
Specifically it arms a timer ICSK_TIME_REO_TIMEOUT when
the RACK timing check fails. The wait time is set to

  RACK.RTT + RACK.reo_wnd - (NOW - Packet.xmit_time) + fudge

This translates to expecting a packet (Packet) should take
(RACK.RTT + RACK.reo_wnd + fudge) to deliver after it was sent.

When there are multiple packets that need a timer, we use one timer
with the maximum timeout. Therefore the timer conservatively uses
the maximum window to expire N packets by one timeout, instead of
N timeouts to expire N packets sent at different times.

The fudge factor is 2 jiffies to ensure when the timer fires, all
the suspected packets would exceed the deadline and be marked lost
by tcp_rack_detect_loss(). It has to be at least 1 jiffy because the
clock may tick between calling icsk_reset_xmit_timer(timeout) and
actually hang the timer. The next jiffy is to lower-bound the timeout
to 2 jiffies when reo_wnd is < 1ms.

When the reordering timer fires (tcp_rack_reo_timeout): If we aren't
in Recovery we'll enter fast recovery and force fast retransmit.
This is very similar to the early retransmit (RFC5827) except RACK
is not constrained to only enter recovery for small outstanding
flights.

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

to change txhash.

Linux TCP stack painfully segments all TSO/GSO packets before retransmits.

This was fine back in the days when TSO/GSO were emerging, with their
bugs, but we believe the dark age is over.

Keeping big packets in write queues, but also in stack traversal
has a lot of benefits.
 - Less memory overhead, because write queues have less skbs
 - Less cpu overhead at ACK processing.
 - Better SACK processing, as lot of studies mentioned how
   awful linux was at this ;)
 - Less cpu overhead to send the rtx packets
   (IP stack traversal, netfilter traversal, drivers...)
 - Better latencies in presence of losses.
 - Smaller spikes in fq like packet schedulers, as retransmits
   are not constrained by TCP Small Queues.

1 % packet losses are common today, and at 100Gbit speeds, this
translates to ~80,000 losses per second.
Losses are often correlated, and we see many retransmit events
leading to 1-MSS train of packets, at the time hosts are already
under stress.

Different net namespaces might have different requirements as to
the keepalive time of tcp sockets. This might be required in cases
where different firewall rules are in place which require tcp
timeout sockets to be increased/decreased independently of the host.

Some middle-boxes black-hole the data after the Fast Open handshake
(https://www.ietf.org/proceedings/94/slides/slides-94-tcpm-13.pdf).
The exact reason is unknown. The work-around is to disable Fast Open
temporarily after multiple recurring timeouts with few or no data
delivered in the established state.

The alive parameter of tcp_orphan_retries, indicates
whether the connection is assumed alive or not.
In the function and all places calling it is used as a boolean value.

Therefore this changes the type of alive to bool in the function
definition and all calling locations.

Since tcp_orphan_tries is a tcp_timer.c local function no change in
any other file or header is necessary.

Diagnosing problems related to Window Probes has been hard because
we lack a counter.

TCPWinProbe counts the number of ACK packets a sender has to send
at regular intervals to make sure a reverse ACK packet opening back
a window had not been lost.

TCPKeepAlive counts the number of ACK packets sent to keep TCP
flows alive (SO_KEEPALIVE)

Fast Open has been using an experimental option with a magic number
(RFC6994). This patch makes the client by default use the RFC7413
option (34) to get and send Fast Open cookies.  This patch makes
the client solicit cookies from a given server first with the
RFC7413 option. If that fails to elicit a cookie, then it tries
the RFC6994 experimental option. If that also fails, it uses the
RFC7413 option on all subsequent connect attempts.  If the server
returns a Fast Open cookie then the client caches the form of the
option that successfully elicited a cookie, and uses that form on
later connects when it presents that cookie.

The idea is to gradually obsolete the use of experimental options as
the servers and clients upgrade, while keeping the interoperability
meanwhile.

One of the major issue for TCP is the SYNACK rtx handling,
done by inet_csk_reqsk_queue_prune(), fired by the keepalive
timer of a TCP_LISTEN socket.

This function runs for awful long times, with socket lock held,
meaning that other cpus needing this lock have to spin for hundred of ms.

SYNACK are sent in huge bursts, likely to cause severe drops anyway.

This model was OK 15 years ago when memory was very tight.

We now can afford to have a timer per request sock.

Timer invocations no longer need to lock the listener,
and can be run from all cpus in parallel.

With following patch increasing somaxconn width to 32 bits,
I tested a listener with more than 4 million active request sockets,
and a steady SYNFLOOD of ~200,000 SYN per second.
Host was sending ~830,000 SYNACK per second.

This is ~100 times more what we could achieve before this patch.

Later, we will get rid of the listener hash and use ehash instead.

As per RFC4821 7.3.  Selecting Probe Size, a probe timer should
be armed once probing has converged. Once this timer expired,
probing again to take advantage of any path PMTU change. The
recommended probing interval is 10 minutes per RFC1981. Probing
interval could be sysctled by sysctl_tcp_probe_interval.

Eric Dumazet suggested to implement pseudo timer based on 32bits
jiffies tcp_time_stamp instead of using classic timer for such
rare event.
