Our TCP stack does not set the urgent flag if the urgent pointer does not fit in 16 bits, i.e., if it is more than 64K from the sequence number of a packet. This behaviour is different from the BSDs, and clearly contradicts the purpose of urgent mode, which is to send the notification (though not necessarily the associated data) as soon as possible. Our current behaviour may in fact delay the urgent notification indefinitely if the receiver window does not open up. Simply matching BSD however may break legacy applications which incorrectly rely on the out-of-band delivery of urgent data, and conversely the in-band delivery of non-urgent data. Alexey Kuznetsov suggested a safe solution of following BSD only if the urgent pointer itself has not yet been transmitted. This way we guarantee that when the remote end sees the packet with non-urgent data marked as urgent due to wrap-around we would have advanced the urgent pointer beyond, either to the actual urgent data or to an as-yet untransmitted packet. The only potential downside is that applications on the remote end may see multiple SIGURG notifications. However, this would occur anyway with other TCP stacks. More importantly, the outcome of such a duplicate notification is likely to be harmless since the signal itself does not carry any information other than the fact that we're in urgent mode. Thanks to Ilpo Järvinen for fixing a critical bug in this and Jeff Chua for reporting that bug.

The current implementation of the TX software time stamping fallback is faulty because it accesses the skb after ndo_start_xmit() returns successfully. This patch removes the fallback, which fixes kernel panics seen during stress tests. Hardware time stamping is not affected by this removal.

This patch adds NETLINK_BROADCAST_ERROR which is a netlink socket option that the listener can set to make netlink_broadcast() return errors in the delivery to the caller. This option is useful if the caller of netlink_broadcast() do something with the result of the message delivery, like in ctnetlink where it drops a network packet if the event delivery failed, this is used to enable reliable logging and state-synchronization. If this socket option is not set, netlink_broadcast() only reports ESRCH errors and silently ignore ENOBUFS errors, which is what most netlink_broadcast() callers should do. This socket option is based on a suggestion from Patrick McHardy. Patrick McHardy can exchange this patch for a beer from me ;).

During peeloff/accept() sctp needs to save the parent socket state into the new socket so that any options set on the parent are inherited by the child socket. This was found when the parent/listener socket issues SO_BINDTODEVICE, but the data was misrouted after a route cache flush.

SCTP incorrectly doubles rto ever time a Hearbeat chunk is generated. However RFC 4960 states: On an idle destination address that is allowed to heartbeat, it is recommended that a HEARTBEAT chunk is sent once per RTO of that destination address plus the protocol parameter 'HB.interval', with jittering of +/- 50% of the RTO value, and exponential backoff of the RTO if the previous HEARTBEAT is unanswered. Essentially, of if the heartbean is unacknowledged, do we double the RTO. Signed-off-by: NVlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This is a new version of my patch, now using a module parameter instead of a sysctl, so that the option is harder to find. Please note that, once the module is loaded, it is still possible to change the value of the parameter in /sys/module/sctp/parameters/, which is useful if you want to do performance comparisons without rebooting. Computation of SCTP checksums significantly affects the performance of SCTP. For example, using two dual-Opteron 246 connected using a Gbe network, it was not possible to achieve more than ~730 Mbps, compared to 941 Mbps after disabling SCTP checksums. Unfortunately, SCTP checksum offloading in NICs is not commonly available (yet). By default, checksums are still enabled, of course.

The additional per-packet information (16 bytes for time stamps, 1 byte for flags) is stored for all packets in the skb_shared_info struct. This implementation detail is hidden from users of that information via skb_* accessor functions. A separate struct resp. union is used for the additional information so that it can be stored/copied easily outside of skb_shared_info. Compared to previous implementations (reusing the tstamp field depending on the context, optional additional structures) this is the simplest solution. It does not extend sk_buff itself. TX time stamping is implemented in software if the device driver doesn't support hardware time stamping. The new semantic for hardware/software time stamping around ndo_start_xmit() is based on two assumptions about existing network device drivers which don't support hardware time stamping and know nothing about it: - they leave the new skb_shared_tx unmodified - the keep the connection to the originating socket in skb->sk alive, i.e., don't call skb_orphan() Given that skb_shared_tx is new, the first assumption is safe. The second is only true for some drivers. As a result, software TX time stamping currently works with the bnx2 driver, but not with the unmodified igb driver (the two drivers this patch series was tested with).

As far as I can tell, there are possible lockups because both the RX session_timer and TX addba_resp_timer are del_timer_sync'ed under the sta spinlock which both timer functions take. Additionally, the TX agg code seems to leak memory when TX aggregation is not disabled before the sta_info is freed. Fix this by making the free code a little smarter in the RX agg case, and actually make the sta_info_destroy code free the TX agg info in the TX agg case. We won't notify the peer, but it'll notice something is wrong anyway, and normally this only happens after we've told it in some other way we will no longer talk to it.
