      tcp: usec resolution SYN/ACK RTT · 0f1c28ae
      Yuchung Cheng 提交于
      Currently SYN/ACK RTT is measured in jiffies. For LAN the SYN/ACK
      RTT is often measured as 0ms or sometimes 1ms, which would affect
      RTT estimation and min RTT samping used by some congestion control.
      
      This patch improves SYN/ACK RTT to be usec resolution if platform
      supports it. While the timestamping of SYN/ACK is done in request
      sock, the RTT measurement is carefully arranged to avoid storing
      another u64 timestamp in tcp_sock.
      
      For regular handshake w/o SYNACK retransmission, the RTT is sampled
      right after the child socket is created and right before the request
      sock is released (tcp_check_req() in tcp_minisocks.c)
      
      For Fast Open the child socket is already created when SYN/ACK was
      sent, the RTT is sampled in tcp_rcv_state_process() after processing
      the final ACK an right before the request socket is released.
      
      If the SYN/ACK was retransmistted or SYN-cookie was used, we rely
      on TCP timestamps to measure the RTT. The sample is taken at the
      same place in tcp_rcv_state_process() after the timestamp values
      are validated in tcp_validate_incoming(). Note that we do not store
      TS echo value in request_sock for SYN-cookies, because the value
      is already stored in tp->rx_opt used by tcp_ack_update_rtt().
      
      One side benefit is that the RTT measurement now happens before
      initializing congestion control (of the passive side). Therefore
      the congestion control can use the SYN/ACK RTT.

      tcp_cubic: better follow cubic curve after idle period · 30927520
      Eric Dumazet 提交于
      Jana Iyengar found an interesting issue on CUBIC :
      
      The epoch is only updated/reset initially and when experiencing losses.
      The delta "t" of now - epoch_start can be arbitrary large after app idle
      as well as the bic_target. Consequentially the slope (inverse of
      ca->cnt) would be really large, and eventually ca->cnt would be
      lower-bounded in the end to 2 to have delayed-ACK slow-start behavior.
      
      This particularly shows up when slow_start_after_idle is disabled
      as a dangerous cwnd inflation (1.5 x RTT) after few seconds of idle
      time.
      
      Jana initial fix was to reset epoch_start if app limited,
      but Neal pointed out it would ask the CUBIC algorithm to recalculate the
      curve so that we again start growing steeply upward from where cwnd is
      now (as CUBIC does just after a loss). Ideally we'd want the cwnd growth
      curve to be the same shape, just shifted later in time by the amount of
      the idle period.

      tcp: generate CA_EVENT_TX_START on data frames · 05c5a46d
      Neal Cardwell 提交于
      Issuing a CC TX_START event on control frames like pure ACK
      is a waste of time, as a CC should not care.
      
      Following patch needs this change, as we want CUBIC to properly track
      idle time at a low cost, with a single TX_START being generated.
      
      Yuchung might slightly refine the condition triggering TX_START
      on a followup patch.

      net: ipv6: use common fib_default_rule_pref · f53de1e9
      Phil Sutter 提交于
      This switches IPv6 policy routing to use the shared
      fib_default_rule_pref() function of IPv4 and DECnet. It is also used in
      multicast routing for IPv4 as well as IPv6.
      
      The motivation for this patch is a complaint about iproute2 behaving
      inconsistent between IPv4 and IPv6 when adding policy rules: Formerly,
      IPv6 rules were assigned a fixed priority of 0x3FFF whereas for IPv4 the
      assigned priority value was decreased with each rule added.
      
      Since then all users of the default_pref field have been converted to
      assign the generic function fib_default_rule_pref(), fib_nl_newrule()
      may just use it directly instead. Therefore get rid of the function
      pointer altogether and make fib_default_rule_pref() static, as it's not
      used outside fib_rules.c anymore.
