As noted by Steve Chen, since commit
f5fff5dc ("tcp: advertise MSS
requested by user") we can end up with a situation where
tcp_select_initial_window() does a divide by a zero (or
even negative) mss value.

The problem is that sometimes we effectively subtract
TCPOLEN_TSTAMP_ALIGNED and/or TCPOLEN_MD5SIG_ALIGNED from the mss.

Fix this by increasing the minimum from 8 to 64.

Fixes kernel bugzilla #16603

tcp_sendmsg() truncates iov_len to an 'int' which a 4GB write to write
zero bytes, for example.

There is also the problem higher up of how verify_iovec() works.  It
wants to prevent the total length from looking like an error return
value.

However it does this using 'int', but syscalls return 'long' (and
thus signed 64-bit on 64-bit machines).  So it could trigger
false-positives on 64-bit as written.  So fix it to use 'long'.

This patch provides a "user timeout" support as described in RFC793. The
socket option is also needed for the the local half of RFC5482 "TCP User
Timeout Option".

TCP_USER_TIMEOUT is a TCP level socket option that takes an unsigned int,
when > 0, to specify the maximum amount of time in ms that transmitted
data may remain unacknowledged before TCP will forcefully close the
corresponding connection and return ETIMEDOUT to the application. If
0 is given, TCP will continue to use the system default.

Increasing the user timeouts allows a TCP connection to survive extended
periods without end-to-end connectivity. Decreasing the user timeouts
allows applications to "fail fast" if so desired. Otherwise it may take
upto 20 minutes with the current system defaults in a normal WAN
environment.

The socket option can be made during any state of a TCP connection, but
is only effective during the synchronized states of a connection
(ESTABLISHED, FIN-WAIT-1, FIN-WAIT-2, CLOSE-WAIT, CLOSING, or LAST-ACK).
Moreover, when used with the TCP keepalive (SO_KEEPALIVE) option,
TCP_USER_TIMEOUT will overtake keepalive to determine when to close a
connection due to keepalive failure.

The option does not change in anyway when TCP retransmits a packet, nor
when a keepalive probe will be sent.

This option, like many others, will be inherited by an acceptor from its
listener.

FreeBSD, Solaris, Mac doesn't. because Ruby's write() method call
select() internally. and tcp_poll has a bug.

SUS defined 'ready for writing' of select() as following.

|  A descriptor shall be considered ready for writing when a call to an output
|  function with O_NONBLOCK clear would not block, whether or not the function
|  would transfer data successfully.

That said, EPIPE situation is clearly one of 'ready for writing'.

We don't have read-side issue because tcp_poll() already has read side
shutdown care.

|        if (sk->sk_shutdown & RCV_SHUTDOWN)
|                mask |= POLLIN | POLLRDNORM | POLLRDHUP;

So, Let's insert same logic in write side.

As discovered by Anton Blanchard, current code to autotune 
tcp_death_row.sysctl_max_tw_buckets, sysctl_tcp_max_orphans and
sysctl_max_syn_backlog makes little sense.

The bigger a page is, the less tcp_max_orphans is : 4096 on a 512GB
machine in Anton's case.

(tcp_hashinfo.bhash_size * sizeof(struct inet_bind_hashbucket))
is much bigger if spinlock debugging is on. Its wrong to select bigger
limits in this case (where kernel structures are also bigger)

bhash_size max is 65536, and we get this value even for small machines. 

A better ground is to use size of ehash table, this also makes code
shorter and more obvious.

Based on a patch from Anton, and another from David.

i've found that tcp_close() can be called for an already closed
socket, but still sends reset in this case (tcp_send_active_reset())
which seems to be incorrect.  Moreover, a packet with reset is sent
with different source port as original port number has been already
cleared on socket.  Besides that incrementing stat counter for
LINUX_MIB_TCPABORTONCLOSE also does not look correct in this case.

Initially this issue was found on 2.6.18-x RHEL5 kernel, but the same
seems to be true for the current mainstream kernel (checked on
2.6.35-rc3).  Please, correct me if i missed something.

How that happens:

1) the server receives a packet for socket in TCP_CLOSE_WAIT state
   that triggers a tcp_reset():

Call Trace:

       inet_sk(sk)->num = 0;

   sk->sk_shutdown = SHUTDOWN_MASK;

2) After that the process (socket owner) tries to write something to
   that socket and "inet_autobind" sets a _new_ (which differs from
   the original!) port number for the socket:

 Call Trace:

3) sendmsg fails at last with -EPIPE (=> 'write' returns -EPIPE in userspace):

tcp_sendmsg()
...
        /* Wait for a connection to finish. */
        if ((1 << sk->sk_state) & ~(TCPF_ESTABLISHED | TCPF_CLOSE_WAIT)) {
                int old_state = sk->sk_state;
                if ((err = sk_stream_wait_connect(sk, &timeo)) != 0) {
if (f_d && (err == -EPIPE)) {
        printk("F: tcp_sendmsg1 -EPIPE: sk=%p, sport=%u, old_state=%d, new_state=%d, "
                "sk_err=%d, sk_shutdown=%d\n",
                sk, ntohs(inet_sk(sk)->sport), old_state, sk->sk_state,

}
                        goto out_err;
                }
        }
...

4) Then the process (socket owner) understands that it's time to close
   that socket and does that (and thus triggers sending reset packet):

Call Trace:
...
 [<ffffffff80032077>] dev_queue_xmit+0x343/0x3d6

 [<ffffffff8001eff6>] sys_close+0x85/0xc7
 [<ffffffff800622dd>] tracesys+0xd5/0xe0

So, in brief:

* a received packet for socket in TCP_CLOSE_WAIT state triggers
  tcp_reset() which clears inet_sk(sk)->num and put socket into
  TCP_CLOSE state

* an attempt to write to that socket forces inet_autobind() to get a
  new port (but the write itself fails with -EPIPE)

* tcp_close() called for socket in TCP_CLOSE state sends an active
  reset via socket with newly allocated port

This adds an additional check in tcp_close() for already closed
sockets. We do not want to send anything to closed sockets.

include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Under NET_DMA, data transfer can grind to a halt when userland issues a
large read on a socket with a high RCVLOWAT (i.e., 512 KB for both).
This appears to be because the NET_DMA design queues up lots of memcpy
operations, but doesn't issue or wait for them (and thus free the
associated skbs) until it is time for tcp_recvmesg() to return.
The socket hangs when its TCP window goes to zero before enough data is
available to satisfy the read.

Periodically issue asynchronous memcpy operations, and free skbs for ones
that have completed, to prevent sockets from going into zero-window mode.

This patch enables fast retransmissions after one dupACK for
TCP if the stream is identified as thin. This will reduce
latencies for thin streams that are not able to trigger fast
retransmissions due to high packet interarrival time. This
mechanism is only active if enabled by iocontrol or syscontrol
and the stream is identified as thin.

This patch will make TCP use only linear timeouts if the
stream is thin. This will help to avoid the very high latencies
that thin stream suffer because of exponential backoff. This
mechanism is only active if enabled by iocontrol or syscontrol
and the stream is identified as thin. A maximum of 6 linear
timeouts is tried before exponential backoff is resumed.

Add __percpu sparse annotations to net.

These annotations are to make sparse consider percpu variables to be
in a different address space and warn if accessed without going
through percpu accessors.  This patch doesn't affect normal builds.

The macro and type tricks around snmp stats make things a bit
interesting.  DEFINE/DECLARE_SNMP_STAT() macros mark the target field
as __percpu and SNMP_UPD_PO_STATS() macro is updated accordingly.  All
snmp_mib_*() users which used to cast the argument to (void **) are
updated to cast it to (void __percpu **).

Slightly optimize tcp_sendmsg since NETIF_F_SG is used many
times iteratively in the loop. The only other modification is
to change:
			} else if (i == MAX_SKB_FRAGS ||
				   (!i &&
				   !(sk->sk_route_caps & NETIF_F_SG))) {
	to:
			} else if (i == MAX_SKB_FRAGS || !sg) {

The reason why this change is correct: this code (other than
the MAX_SKB_FRAGS case) executes only due to the else part
of: "if (skb_tailroom(skb) > 0) {" - i.e. there was no space
in the skb to put the data inline. Hence SG is false is a
sufficient condition, and there is no way a fragment can be
added to the skb.

Provide per socket control of the TCP cookie option and SYN/SYNACK data.

This is a straightforward re-implementation of an earlier (year-old)
patch that no longer applies cleanly, with permission of the original
author (Adam Langley):

    http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/102586

The principle difference is using a TCP option to carry the cookie nonce,
instead of a user configured offset in the data.

Allocations have been rearranged to avoid requiring GFP_ATOMIC.

Requires:
   net: TCP_MSS_DEFAULT, TCP_MSS_DESIRED
   TCPCT part 1c: sysctl_tcp_cookie_size, socket option TCP_COOKIE_TRANSACTIONS
   TCPCT part 1d: define TCP cookie option, extend existing struct's

Define (missing) hash message size for SHA1.

Define hashing size constants specific to TCP cookies.

Add new function: tcp_cookie_generator().

Maintain global secret values for tcp_cookie_generator().

This is a significantly revised implementation of earlier (15-year-old)
Photuris [RFC-2522] code for the KA9Q cooperative multitasking platform.

Linux RCU technique appears to be well-suited to this application, though
neither of the circular queue items are freed.

These functions will also be used in subsequent patches that implement
additional features.

The addition of rcv_nxt allows to discern whether the skb
was out of place or tp->copied. Also catch fancy combination
of flags if necessary (sadly we might miss the actual causer
flags as it might have already returned).

Btw, we perhaps would want to forward copied_seq in
somewhere or otherwise we might have some nice loop with
WARN stuff within but where to do that safely I don't
know at this stage until more is known (but it is not
made significantly worse by this patch).

Commit b6b39e8f (tcp: Try to catch MSG_PEEK bug) added a printk()
to the WARN_ON() that's in tcp.c. This patch changes this combination
to WARN(); the advantage of WARN() is that the printk message shows up
inside the message, so that kerneloops.org will collect the message.

In addition, this gets rid of an extra if() statement.
