New sysctl tcp_frto_response is added to select amongst these responses: - Rate halving based; reuses CA_CWR state (default) - Very conservative; used to be the only one available (=1) - Undo cwr; undoes ssthresh and cwnd reductions (=2) The response with rate halving requires a new parameter to tcp_enter_cwr because FRTO has already reduced ssthresh and doing a second reduction there has to be prevented. In addition, to keep things nice on 80 cols screen, a local variable was added. Signed-off-by: NIlpo Järvinen <ilpo.jarvinen@helsinki.fi> Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This interpretation comes from RFC4138: "If the sender implements some loss recovery algorithm other than Reno or NewReno [FHG04], the F-RTO algorithm SHOULD NOT be entered when earlier fast recovery is underway." I think the RFC means to say (especially in the light of Appendix B) that ...recovery is underway (not just fast recovery) or was underway when it was interrupted by an earlier (F-)RTO that hasn't yet been resolved (snd_una has not advanced enough). Thus, my interpretation is that whenever TCP has ever retransmitted other than head, basic version cannot be used because then the order assumptions which are used as FRTO basis do not hold. NewReno has only the head segment retransmitted at a time. Therefore, walk up to the segment that has not been SACKed, if that segment is not retransmitted nor anything before it, we know for sure, that nothing after the non-SACKed segment should be either. This assumption is valid because TCPCB_EVER_RETRANS does not leave holes but each non-SACKed segment is rexmitted in-order. Check for retrans_out > 1 avoids more expensive walk through the skb list, as we can know the result beforehand: F-RTO will not be allowed. SACKed skb can turn into non-SACked only in the extremely rare case of SACK reneging, in this case we might fail to detect retransmissions if there were them for any other than head. To get rid of that feature, whole rexmit queue would have to be walked (always) or FRTO should be prevented when SACK reneging happens. Of course RTO should still trigger after reneging which makes this issue even less likely to show up. And as long as the response is as conservative as it's now, nothing bad happens even then.

While looking at DCCP sequence numbers, I stumbled over a problem with the following definition of before in tcp.h: static inline int before(__u32 seq1, __u32 seq2) { return (__s32)(seq1-seq2) < 0; } Problem: This definition suffers from an an ambiguity, i.e. always before(a, (a + 2^31) % 2^32)) = 1 before((a + 2^31) % 2^32), a) = 1 In text: when the difference between a and b amounts to 2^31, a is always considered `before' b, the function can not decide. The reason is that implicitly 0 is `before' 1 ... 2^31-1 ... 2^31 Solution: There is a simple fix, by defining before in such a way that 0 is no longer `before' 2^31, i.e. 0 `before' 1 ... 2^31-1 By not using the middle between 0 and 2^32, before can be made unambiguous. This is achieved by testing whether seq2-seq1 > 0 (using signed 32-bit arithmetic). I attach a patch to codify this. Also the `after' relation is basically a redefinition of `before', it is now defined as a macro after before. Signed-off-by: NGerrit Renker <gerrit@erg.abdn.ac.uk> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

We currently allocate a fixed size (TCP_SYNQ_HSIZE=512) slots hash table for each LISTEN socket, regardless of various parameters (listen backlog for example) On x86_64, this means order-1 allocations (might fail), even for 'small' sockets, expecting few connections. On the contrary, a huge server wanting a backlog of 50000 is slowed down a bit because of this fixed limit. This patch makes the sizing of listen hash table a dynamic parameter, depending of : - net.core.somaxconn tunable (default is 128) - net.ipv4.tcp_max_syn_backlog tunable (default : 256, 1024 or 128) - backlog value given by user application (2nd parameter of listen()) For large allocations (bigger than PAGE_SIZE), we use vmalloc() instead of kmalloc(). We still limit memory allocation with the two existing tunables (somaxconn & tcp_max_syn_backlog). So for standard setups, this patch actually reduce RAM usage.

Refer to RFC2012, tcpAttemptFails is defined as following: tcpAttemptFails OBJECT-TYPE SYNTAX Counter32 MAX-ACCESS read-only STATUS current DESCRIPTION "The number of times TCP connections have made a direct transition to the CLOSED state from either the SYN-SENT state or the SYN-RCVD state, plus the number of times TCP connections have made a direct transition to the LISTEN state from the SYN-RCVD state." ::= { tcp 7 } When I lookup into RFC793, I found that the state change should occured under following condition: 1. SYN-SENT -> CLOSED a) Received ACK,RST segment when SYN-SENT state. 2. SYN-RCVD -> CLOSED b) Received SYN segment when SYN-RCVD state(came from LISTEN). c) Received RST segment when SYN-RCVD state(came from SYN-SENT). d) Received SYN segment when SYN-RCVD state(came from SYN-SENT). 3. SYN-RCVD -> LISTEN e) Received RST segment when SYN-RCVD state(came from LISTEN). In my test, those direct state transition can not be counted to tcpAttemptFails.

Certain subsystems in the stack (e.g., netfilter) can break the partial checksum on GSO packets. Until they're fixed, this patch allows this to work by recomputing the partial checksums through the GSO mechanism. Once they've all been converted to update the partial checksum instead of clearing it, this workaround can be removed.

This patch generalises the TSO-specific bits from sk_setup_caps by adding the sk_gso_type member to struct sock. This makes sk_setup_caps generic so that it can be used by TCPv6 or UFO. The only catch is that whoever uses this must provide a GSO implementation for their protocol which I think is a fair deal :) For now UFO continues to live without a GSO implementation which is OK since it doesn't use the sock caps field at the moment.

When GSO packets come from an untrusted source (e.g., a Xen guest domain), we need to verify the header integrity before passing it to the hardware. Since the first step in GSO is to verify the header, we can reuse that code by adding a new bit to gso_type: SKB_GSO_DODGY. Packets with this bit set can only be fed directly to devices with the corresponding bit NETIF_F_GSO_ROBUST. If the device doesn't have that bit, then the skb is fed to the GSO engine which will allow the packet to be sent to the hardware if it passes the header check. This patch changes the sg flag to a full features flag. The same method can be used to implement TSO ECN support. We simply have to mark packets with CWR set with SKB_GSO_ECN so that only hardware with a corresponding NETIF_F_TSO_ECN can accept them. The GSO engine can either fully segment the packet, or segment the first MTU and pass the rest to the hardware for further segmentation.

Having separate fields in sk_buff for TSO/UFO (tso_size/ufo_size) is not going to scale if we add any more segmentation methods (e.g., DCCP). So let's merge them. They were used to tell the protocol of a packet. This function has been subsumed by the new gso_type field. This is essentially a set of netdev feature bits (shifted by 16 bits) that are required to process a specific skb. As such it's easy to tell whether a given device can process a GSO skb: you just have to and the gso_type field and the netdev's features field. I've made gso_type a conjunction. The idea is that you have a base type (e.g., SKB_GSO_TCPV4) that can be modified further to support new features. For example, if we add a hardware TSO type that supports ECN, they would declare NETIF_F_TSO | NETIF_F_TSO_ECN. All TSO packets with CWR set would have a gso_type of SKB_GSO_TCPV4 | SKB_GSO_TCPV4_ECN while all other TSO packets would be SKB_GSO_TCPV4. This means that only the CWR packets need to be emulated in software. Signed-off-by: NHerbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Many of the TCP congestion methods all just use ssthresh as the minimum congestion window on decrease. Rather than duplicating the code, just have that be the default if that handle in the ops structure is not set. Minor behaviour change to TCP compound. It probably wants to use this (ssthresh) as lower bound, rather than ssthresh/2 because the latter causes undershoot on loss.

Back in the dark ages, we had to be conservative and only allow 15-bit window fields if the window scale option was not negotiated. Some ancient stacks used a signed 16-bit quantity for the window field of the TCP header and would get confused. Those days are long gone, so we can use the full 16-bits by default now.

TCP peformance with TSO over networks with delay is awful. On a 100Mbit link with 150ms delay, we get 4Mbits/sec with TSO and 50Mbits/sec without TSO. The problem is with TSO, we intentionally do not keep the maximum number of packets in flight to fill the window, we hold out to until we can send a MSS chunk. But, we also don't update the congestion window unless we have filled, as per RFC2861. This patch replaces the check for the congestion window being full with something smarter that accounts for TSO.
