A cpu executing the network receive path sheds packets when its input queue grows to netdev_max_backlog. A single high rate flow (such as a spoofed source DoS) can exceed a single cpu processing rate and will degrade throughput of other flows hashed onto the same cpu. This patch adds a more fine grained hashtable. If the netdev backlog is above a threshold, IRQ cpus track the ratio of total traffic of each flow (using 4096 buckets, configurable). The ratio is measured by counting the number of packets per flow over the last 256 packets from the source cpu. Any flow that occupies a large fraction of this (set at 50%) will see packet drop while above the threshold. Tested: Setup is a muli-threaded UDP echo server with network rx IRQ on cpu0, kernel receive (RPS) on cpu0 and application threads on cpus 2--7 each handling 20k req/s. Throughput halves when hit with a 400 kpps antagonist storm. With this patch applied, antagonist overload is dropped and the server processes its complete load. The patch is effective when kernel receive processing is the bottleneck. The above RPS scenario is a extreme, but the same is reached with RFS and sufficient kernel processing (iptables, packet socket tap, ..).

Add tg3_eee_pull_config() to pull the settings from the hardware and populate the eee structure. If Link Flap Avoidance is enabled, we pull the eee settings from the hw so as not to cause a phy reset on eee config mismatch later.

hpa bringed into my attention some security related issues with BPF JIT on x86. This patch makes sure the bpf generated code is marked read only, as other kernel text sections. It also splits the unused space (we vmalloc() and only use a fraction of the page) in two parts, so that the generated bpf code not starts at a known offset in the page, but a pseudo random one.

tcp_timeout_skb() was intended to trigger fast recovery on timeout, unfortunately in reality it often causes spurious retransmission storms during fast recovery. The particular sign is a fast retransmit over the highest sacked sequence (SND.FACK). Currently the RTO timer re-arming (as in RFC6298) offers a nice cushion to avoid spurious timeout: when SND.UNA advances the sender re-arms RTO and extends the timeout by icsk_rto. The sender does not offset the time elapsed since the packet at SND.UNA was sent. But if the next (DUP)ACK arrives later than ~RTTVAR and triggers tcp_fastretrans_alert(), then tcp_timeout_skb() will mark any packet sent before the icsk_rto interval lost, including one that's above the highest sacked sequence. Most likely a large part of scorebard will be marked. If most packets are not lost then the subsequent DUPACKs with new SACK blocks will cause the sender to continue to retransmit packets beyond SND.FACK spuriously. Even if only one packet is lost the sender may falsely retransmit almost the entire window. The situation becomes common in the world of bufferbloat: the RTT continues to grow as the queue builds up but RTTVAR remains small and close to the minimum 200ms. If a data packet is lost and the DUPACK triggered by the next data packet is slightly delayed, then a spurious retransmission storm forms. As the original comment on tcp_timeout_skb() suggests: the usefulness of this feature is questionable. It also wastes cycles walking the sack scoreboard and is actually harmful because of false recovery. It's time to remove this.

This patch adds the support of peer address for IPv6. For example, it is possible to specify the remote end of a 6inY tunnel. This was already possible in IPv4: ip addr add ip1 peer ip2 dev dev1 The peer address is specified with IFA_ADDRESS and the local address with IFA_LOCAL (like explained in include/uapi/linux/if_addr.h). Note that the API is not changed, because before this patch, it was not possible to specify two different addresses in IFA_LOCAL and IFA_REMOTE. There is a small change for the dump: if the peer is different from ::, IFA_ADDRESS will contain the peer address instead of the local address.

The commit 823aa873 Author: stephen hemminger <stephen@networkplumber.org> Date: Sat Apr 27 11:31:57 2013 +0000 vxlan: allow choosing destination port per vxlan introduced per-vxlan UDP port configuration but only did half of the necessary work. It added per vxlan destination for sending, but overlooked the handling of multiple ports for incoming traffic. This patch changes the listening port management to handle multiple incoming UDP ports. The earlier per-namespace structure is now a hash list per namespace. It is also now possible to define the same virtual network id but with different UDP port values which can be useful for migration.
