In the last patch da36e13c ("ipvlan: improvise dev_id generation logic in IPvlan") I missed some part of Dave's suggestion and because of that the dev_id creation could fail in a corner case scenario. This would happen when more or less 64k devices have been already created and several have been deleted. If the devices that are still sticking around are the last n bits from the bitmap. So in this scenario even if lower bits are available, the dev_id search is so narrow that it always fails.

If an option descriptor has been sent on a queue but not followed by a packet, there will have been no completion event, so the read and write counts won't match and we'll think we can't do PIO. This combines with the fact that we have two TX queues (for en/disable checksum offload), and that both must be empty for PIO to happen. This patch adds a separate "packet_write_count" that tracks the most recent write_count we expect to see a completion event for; this excludes option descriptors but _includes_ PIO descriptors (even though they look like option descriptors). This is then used, rather than write_count, in efx_nic_tx_is_empty(). We only bother to maintain packet_write_count on EF10, since on Siena (a) there are no option descriptors and it always equals write_count, and (b) there's no PIO, so we don't need it anyway.

sctp_frag_point() doesn't store anything, and thus just calling it cannot do anything useful. sctp_apply_peer_addr_params is only called by sctp_setsockopt_peer_addr_params. When operating on an asoc, sctp_setsockopt_peer_addr_params will call sctp_apply_peer_addr_params once for the asoc, and then once for each transport this asoc has, meaning that the frag_point will be recomputed when updating the transports and calling it when updating the asoc is not necessary. IOW, no action is needed here and we can remove this call.

Yuchung Cheng says: ==================== tcp: RACK fast recovery The patch set enables RACK loss detection (draft-ietf-tcpm-rack-01) to trigger fast recovery with a reordering timer. Previously RACK has been running in auxiliary mode where it is used to detect packet losses once the recovery has triggered by other algorithms (e.g., FACK). By inspecting packet timestamps, RACK can start ACK-driven repairs timely. A few similar heuristics are no longer needed and are either removed or disabled to reduce the complexity of the Linux TCP loss recovery engine: 1. FACK (Forward Acknowledgement) 2. Early Retransmit (RFC5827) 3. thin_dupack (fast recovery on single DUPACK for thin-streams) 4. NCR (Non-Congestion Robustness RFC4653) (RFC4653) 5. Forward Retransmit After this change, Linux's loss recovery algorithms consist of 1. Conventional DUPACK threshold approach (RFC6675) 2. RACK and Tail Loss Probe (draft-ietf-tcpm-rack-01) 3. RTO plus F-RTO extension (RFC5682) The patch set has been tested on Google servers extensively and presented in several IETF meetings. The data suggests that RACK successfully improves recovery performance: https://www.ietf.org/proceedings/97/slides/slides-97-tcpm-draft-ietf-tcpm-rack-01.pdf https://www.ietf.org/proceedings/96/slides/slides-96-tcpm-3.pdf ==================== Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

This patch disables FACK by default as RACK is the successor of FACK (inspired by the insights behind FACK). FACK[1] in Linux works as follows: a packet P is deemed lost, if packet Q of higher sequence is s/acked and P and Q are distant by at least dupthresh number of packets in sequence space. FACK is more aggressive than the IETF recommened recovery for SACK (RFC3517 A Conservative Selective Acknowledgment (SACK)-based Loss Recovery Algorithm for TCP), because a single SACK may trigger fast recovery. This obviously won't work well with reordering so FACK is dynamically disabled upon detecting reordering. RACK supersedes FACK by using time distance instead of sequence distance. On reordering, RACK waits for a quarter of RTT receiving a single SACK before starting recovery. (the timer can be made more adaptive in the future by measuring reordering distance in time, but currently RTT/4 seem to work well.) Once the recovery starts, RACK behaves almost like FACK because it reduces the reodering window to 1ms, so it fast retransmits quickly. In addition RACK can detect loss retransmission as it does not care about the packet sequences (being repeated or not), which is extremely useful when the connection is going through a traffic policer. Google server experiments indicate that disabling FACK after enabling RACK has negligible impact on the overall loss recovery performance with more reordering events detected. But we still keep the FACK implementation for backup if RACK has bugs that needs to be disabled. [1] M. Mathis, J.

Thin stream DUPACK is to start fast recovery on only one DUPACK provided the connection is a thin stream (i.e., low inflight). But this older feature is now subsumed with RACK. If a connection receives only a single DUPACK, RACK would arm a reordering timer and soon starts fast recovery instead of timeout if no further ACKs are received. The socket option (THIN_DUPACK) is kept as a nop for compatibility. Note that this patch does not change another thin-stream feature which enables linear RTO. Although it might be good to generalize that in the future (i.e., linear RTO for the first say 3 retries).

This patch removes the (partial) implementation of the aggressive limited transmit in RFC4653 TCP Non-Congestion Robustness (NCR). NCR is a mitigation to the problem created by the dynamic DUPACK threshold. With the current adaptive DUPACK threshold (tp->reordering) could cause timeouts by preventing fast recovery. For example, if the last packet of a cwnd burst was reordered, the threshold will be set to the size of cwnd. But if next application burst is smaller than threshold and has drops instead of reorderings, the sender would not trigger fast recovery but instead resorts to a timeout recovery. NCR mitigates this issue by checking the number of DUPACKs against the current flight size additionally. The techniqueue is similar to the early retransmit RFC. With RACK loss detection, this mitigation is not needed, because RACK does not use DUPACK threshold to detect losses. RACK arms a reordering timer to fire at most a quarter RTT later to start fast recovery.

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.

Forward retransmit is an esoteric feature in RFC3517 (condition(3) in the NextSeg()). Basically if a packet is not considered lost by the current criteria (# of dupacks etc), but the congestion window has room for more packets, then retransmit this packet. However it actually conflicts with the rest of recovery design. For example, when reordering is detected we want to be conservative in retransmitting packets but forward-retransmit feature would break that to force more retransmission. Also the implementation is fairly complicated inside the retransmission logic inducing extra iterations in the write queue. With RACK losses are being detected timely and this heuristic is no longer necessary. There this patch removes the feature.

Current F-RTO reverts cwnd reset whenever a never-retransmitted packet was (s)acked. The timeout can be declared spurious because the packets acknoledged with this ACK was transmitted before the timeout, so clearly not all the packets are lost to reset the cwnd. This nice detection does not really depend F-RTO internals. This patch applies the detection universally. On Google servers this change detected 20% more spurious timeouts.

Currently RACK would mark loss before the undo operations in TCP loss recovery. This could incorrectly identify real losses as spurious. For example a sender first experiences a delay spike and then eventually some packets were lost due to buffer overrun. In this case, the sender should perform fast recovery b/c not all the packets were lost. But the sender may first trigger a (spurious) RTO and reset cwnd to 1. The following ACKs may used to mark real losses by tcp_rack_mark_lost. Then in tcp_process_loss this ACK could trigger F-RTO undo condition and unmark real losses and revert the cwnd reduction. If there are no more ACKs coming back, eventually the sender would timeout again instead of performing fast recovery. The patch fixes this incorrect process by always performing the undo checks before detecting losses.

The packets inside a jumbo skb (e.g., TSO) share the same skb timestamp, even though they are sent sequentially on the wire. Since RACK is based on time, it can not detect some packets inside the same skb are lost. However, we can leverage the packet sequence numbers as extended timestamps to detect losses. Therefore, when RACK timestamp is identical to skb's timestamp (i.e., one of the packets of the skb is acked or sacked), we use the sequence numbers of the acked and unacked packets to break ties. We can use the same sequence logic to advance RACK xmit time as well to detect more losses and avoid timeout.

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.

Record the most recent RTT in RACK. It is often identical to the "ca_rtt_us" values in tcp_clean_rtx_queue. But when the packet has been retransmitted, RACK choses to believe the ACK is for the (latest) retransmitted packet if the RTT is over minimum RTT. This requires passing the arrival time of the most recent ACK to RACK routines. The timestamp is now recorded in the "ack_time" in tcp_sacktag_state during the ACK processing. This patch does not change the RACK algorithm itself. It only adds the RTT variable to prepare the next main patch.
