This removes the use of qstats->qlen variable from the classifiers
and makes it an explicit argument to gnet_stats_copy_queue().

The qlen represents the qdisc queue length and is packed into
the qstats at the last moment before passnig to user space. By
handling it explicitely we avoid, in the percpu stats case, having
to figure out which per_cpu variable to put it in.

It would probably be best to remove it from qstats completely
but qstats is a user space ABI and can't be broken. A future
patch could make an internal only qstats structure that would
avoid having to allocate an additional u32 variable on the
Qdisc struct. This would make the qstats struct 128bits instead
of 128+32.

In order to run qdisc's without locking statistics and estimators
need to be handled correctly.

To resolve bstats make the statistics per cpu. And because this is
only needed for qdiscs that are running without locks which is not
the case for most qdiscs in the near future only create percpu
stats when qdiscs set the TCQ_F_CPUSTATS flag.

Next because estimators use the bstats to calculate packets per
second and bytes per second the estimator code paths are updated
to use the per cpu statistics.

This patch adds a new mode of operation to macvlan, called "source".
It allows one to set a list of allowed mac address, which is used
to match against source mac address from received frames on underlying
interface.
This enables creating mac based VLAN associations, instead of standard
port or tag based. The feature is useful to deploy 802.1x mac based
behavior, where drivers of underlying interfaces doesn't allows that.

Configuration is done through the netlink interface using e.g.:
 ip link add link eth0 name macvlan0 type macvlan mode source
 ip link add link eth0 name macvlan1 type macvlan mode source
 ip link set link dev macvlan0 type macvlan macaddr add 00:11:11:11:11:11
 ip link set link dev macvlan0 type macvlan macaddr add 00:22:22:22:22:22
 ip link set link dev macvlan0 type macvlan macaddr add 00:33:33:33:33:33
 ip link set link dev macvlan1 type macvlan macaddr add 00:33:33:33:33:33
 ip link set link dev macvlan1 type macvlan macaddr add 00:44:44:44:44:44

This allows clients with MAC addresses 00:11:11:11:11:11,
00:22:22:22:22:22 to be part of only VLAN associated with macvlan0
interface. Clients with MAC addresses 00:44:44:44:44:44 with only VLAN
associated with macvlan1 interface. And client with MAC address
00:33:33:33:33:33 to be associated with both VLANs.

pull request: netfilter/ipvs updates for net-next

The following patchset contains Netfilter/IPVS updates for net-next,
most relevantly they are:

1) Four patches to make the new nf_tables masquerading support
   independent of the x_tables infrastructure. This also resolves a
   compilation breakage if the masquerade target is disabled but the
   nf_tables masq expression is enabled.

2) ipset updates via Jozsef Kadlecsik. This includes the addition of the
   skbinfo extension that allows you to store packet metainformation in the
   elements. This can be used to fetch and restore this to the packets through
   the iptables SET target, patches from Anton Danilov.

3) Add the hash:mac set type to ipset, from Jozsef Kadlecsick.

4) Add simple weighted fail-over scheduler via Simon Horman. This provides
   a fail-over IPVS scheduler (unlike existing load balancing schedulers).
   Connections are directed to the appropriate server based solely on
   highest weight value and server availability, patch from Kenny Mathis.

5) Support IPv6 real servers in IPv4 virtual-services and vice versa.
   Simon Horman informs that the motivation for this is to allow more
   flexibility in the choice of IP version offered by both virtual-servers
   and real-servers as they no longer need to match: An IPv4 connection
   from an end-user may be forwarded to a real-server using IPv6 and
   vice versa. No ip_vs_sync support yet though. Patches from Alex Gartrell
   and Julian Anastasov.

6) Add global generation ID to the nf_tables ruleset. When dumping from
   several different object lists, we need a way to identify that an update
   has ocurred so userspace knows that it needs to refresh its lists. This
   also includes a new command to obtain the 32-bits generation ID. The
   less significant 16-bits of this ID is also exposed through res_id field
   in the nfnetlink header to quickly detect the interference and retry when
   there is no risk of ID wraparound.

7) Move br_netfilter out of the bridge core. The br_netfilter code is
   built in the bridge core by default. This causes problems of different
   kind to people that don't want this: Jesper reported performance drop due
   to the inconditional hook registration and I remember to have read complains
   on netdev from people regarding the unexpected behaviour of our bridging
   stack when br_netfilter is enabled (fragmentation handling, layer 3 and
   upper inspection). People that still need this should easily undo the
   damage by modprobing the new br_netfilter module.

8) Dump the set policy nf_tables that allows set parameterization. So
   userspace can keep user-defined preferences when saving the ruleset.
   From Arturo Borrero.

9) Use __seq_open_private() helper function to reduce boiler plate code
   in x_tables, From Rob Jones.

10) Safer default behaviour in case that you forget to load the protocol
   tracker. Daniel Borkmann and Florian Westphal detected that if your
   ruleset is stateful, you allow traffic to at least one single SCTP port
   and the SCTP protocol tracker is not loaded, then any SCTP traffic may
   be pass through unfiltered. After this patch, the connection tracking
   classifies SCTP/DCCP/UDPlite/GRE packets as invalid if your kernel has
   been compiled with support for these modules.

Given following iptables ruleset:

-P FORWARD DROP
-A FORWARD -m sctp --dport 9 -j ACCEPT
-A FORWARD -p tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT
-A FORWARD -p tcp -m conntrack -m state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT

One would assume that this allows SCTP on port 9 and TCP on port 80.
Unfortunately, if the SCTP conntrack module is not loaded, this allows
*all* SCTP communication, to pass though, i.e. -p sctp -j ACCEPT,
which we think is a security issue.

This is because on the first SCTP packet on port 9, we create a dummy
"generic l4" conntrack entry without any port information (since
conntrack doesn't know how to extract this information).

All subsequent packets that are unknown will then be in established
state since they will fallback to proto_generic and will match the
'generic' entry.

Our originally proposed version [1] completely disabled generic protocol
tracking, but Jozsef suggests to not track protocols for which a more
suitable helper is available, hence we now mitigate the issue for in
tree known ct protocol helpers only, so that at least NAT and direction
information will still be preserved for others.

====================
Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This work adds the DataCenter TCP (DCTCP) congestion control
algorithm [1], which has been first published at SIGCOMM 2010 [2],
resp. follow-up analysis at SIGMETRICS 2011 [3] (and also, more
recently as an informational IETF draft available at [4]).

DCTCP is an enhancement to the TCP congestion control algorithm for
data center networks. Typical data center workloads are i.e.
i) partition/aggregate (queries; bursty, delay sensitive), ii) short
messages e.g. 50KB-1MB (for coordination and control state; delay
sensitive), and iii) large flows e.g. 1MB-100MB (data update;
throughput sensitive). DCTCP has therefore been designed for such
environments to provide/achieve the following three requirements:

  * High burst tolerance (incast due to partition/aggregate)
  * Low latency (short flows, queries)
  * High throughput (continuous data updates, large file
    transfers) with commodity, shallow buffered switches

The basic idea of its design consists of two fundamentals: i) on the
switch side, packets are being marked when its internal queue
length > threshold K (K is chosen so that a large enough headroom
for marked traffic is still available in the switch queue); ii) the
sender/host side maintains a moving average of the fraction of marked
packets, so each RTT, F is being updated as follows:

 F := X / Y, where X is # of marked ACKs, Y is total # of ACKs
 alpha := (1 - g) * alpha + g * F, where g is a smoothing constant

The resulting alpha (iow: probability that switch queue is congested)
is then being used in order to adaptively decrease the congestion
window W:

 W := (1 - (alpha / 2)) * W

The means for receiving marked packets resp. marking them on switch
side in DCTCP is the use of ECN.

RFC3168 describes a mechanism for using Explicit Congestion Notification
from the switch for early detection of congestion, rather than waiting
for segment loss to occur.

However, this method only detects the presence of congestion, not
the *extent*. In the presence of mild congestion, it reduces the TCP
congestion window too aggressively and unnecessarily affects the
throughput of long flows [4].

DCTCP, as mentioned, enhances Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN)
processing to estimate the fraction of bytes that encounter congestion,
rather than simply detecting that some congestion has occurred. DCTCP
then scales the TCP congestion window based on this estimate [4],
thus it can derive multibit feedback from the information present in
the single-bit sequence of marks in its control law. And thus act in
*proportion* to the extent of congestion, not its *presence*.

Switches therefore set the Congestion Experienced (CE) codepoint in
packets when internal queue lengths exceed threshold K. Resulting,
DCTCP delivers the same or better throughput than normal TCP, while
using 90% less buffer space.

It was found in [2] that DCTCP enables the applications to handle 10x
the current background traffic, without impacting foreground traffic.
Moreover, a 10x increase in foreground traffic did not cause any
timeouts, and thus largely eliminates TCP incast collapse problems.

The algorithm itself has already seen deployments in large production
data centers since then.

We did a long-term stress-test and analysis in a data center, short
summary of our TCP incast tests with iperf compared to cubic:

This test measured DCTCP throughput and latency and compared it with
CUBIC throughput and latency for an incast scenario. In this test, 19
senders sent at maximum rate to a single receiver. The receiver simply
ran iperf -s.

The senders ran iperf -c <receiver> -t 30. All senders started
simultaneously (using local clocks synchronized by ntp).

This test was repeated multiple times. Below shows the results from a
single test. Other tests are similar. (DCTCP results were extremely
consistent, CUBIC results show some variance induced by the TCP timeouts
that CUBIC encountered.)

For this test, we report statistics on the number of TCP timeouts,
flow throughput, and traffic latency.

1) Timeouts (total over all flows, and per flow summaries):

            CUBIC            DCTCP
  Total     3227             25
  Mean       169.842          1.316
  Median     183              1
  Max        207              5
  Min        123              0
  Stddev      28.991          1.600

Timeout data is taken by measuring the net change in netstat -s
"other TCP timeouts" reported. As a result, the timeout measurements
above are not restricted to the test traffic, and we believe that it
is likely that all of the "DCTCP timeouts" are actually timeouts for
non-test traffic. We report them nevertheless. CUBIC will also include
some non-test timeouts, but they are drawfed by bona fide test traffic
timeouts for CUBIC. Clearly DCTCP does an excellent job of preventing
TCP timeouts. DCTCP reduces timeouts by at least two orders of
magnitude and may well have eliminated them in this scenario.

2) Throughput (per flow in Mbps):

            CUBIC            DCTCP
  Mean      521.684          521.895
  Median    464              523
  Max       776              527
  Min       403              519
  Stddev    105.891            2.601
  Fairness    0.962            0.999

Throughput data was simply the average throughput for each flow
reported by iperf. By avoiding TCP timeouts, DCTCP is able to
achieve much better per-flow results. In CUBIC, many flows
experience TCP timeouts which makes flow throughput unpredictable and
unfair. DCTCP, on the other hand, provides very clean predictable
throughput without incurring TCP timeouts. Thus, the standard deviation
of CUBIC throughput is dramatically higher than the standard deviation
of DCTCP throughput.

Mean throughput is nearly identical because even though cubic flows
suffer TCP timeouts, other flows will step in and fill the unused
bandwidth. Note that this test is something of a best case scenario
for incast under CUBIC: it allows other flows to fill in for flows
experiencing a timeout. Under situations where the receiver is issuing
requests and then waiting for all flows to complete, flows cannot fill
in for timed out flows and throughput will drop dramatically.

3) Latency (in ms):

            CUBIC            DCTCP
  Mean      4.0088           0.04219
  Median    4.055            0.0395
  Max       4.2              0.085
  Min       3.32             0.028
  Stddev    0.1666           0.01064

Latency for each protocol was computed by running "ping -i 0.2
<receiver>" from a single sender to the receiver during the incast
test. For DCTCP, "ping -Q 0x6 -i 0.2 <receiver>" was used to ensure
that traffic traversed the DCTCP queue and was not dropped when the
queue size was greater than the marking threshold. The summary
statistics above are over all ping metrics measured between the single
sender, receiver pair.

The latency results for this test show a dramatic difference between
CUBIC and DCTCP. CUBIC intentionally overflows the switch buffer
which incurs the maximum queue latency (more buffer memory will lead
to high latency.) DCTCP, on the other hand, deliberately attempts to
keep queue occupancy low. The result is a two orders of magnitude
reduction of latency with DCTCP - even with a switch with relatively
little RAM. Switches with larger amounts of RAM will incur increasing
amounts of latency for CUBIC, but not for DCTCP.

4) Convergence and stability test:

This test measured the time that DCTCP took to fairly redistribute
bandwidth when a new flow commences. It also measured DCTCP's ability
to remain stable at a fair bandwidth distribution. DCTCP is compared
with CUBIC for this test.

At the commencement of this test, a single flow is sending at maximum
rate (near 10 Gbps) to a single receiver. One second after that first
flow commences, a new flow from a distinct server begins sending to
the same receiver as the first flow. After the second flow has sent
data for 10 seconds, the second flow is terminated. The first flow
sends for an additional second. Ideally, the bandwidth would be evenly
shared as soon as the second flow starts, and recover as soon as it
stops.

The results of this test are shown below. Note that the flow bandwidth
for the two flows was measured near the same time, but not
simultaneously.

DCTCP performs nearly perfectly within the measurement limitations
of this test: bandwidth is quickly distributed fairly between the two
flows, remains stable throughout the duration of the test, and
recovers quickly. CUBIC, in contrast, is slow to divide the bandwidth
fairly, and has trouble remaining stable.

SYN/ACK ECT test:

This test demonstrates the importance of ECT on SYN and SYN-ACK packets
by measuring the connection probability in the presence of competing
flows for a DCTCP connection attempt *without* ECT in the SYN packet.
The test was repeated five times for each number of competing flows.

              Competing Flows  1 |    2 |    4 |    8 |   16
                               ------------------------------
Mean Connection Probability    1 | 0.67 | 0.45 | 0.28 |    0
Median Connection Probability  1 | 0.65 | 0.45 | 0.25 |    0

As the number of competing flows moves beyond 1, the connection
probability drops rapidly.

Enabling DCTCP with this patch requires the following steps:

DCTCP must be running both on the sender and receiver side in your
data center, i.e.:

  sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_congestion_control=dctcp

Also, ECN functionality must be enabled on all switches in your
data center for DCTCP to work. The default ECN marking threshold (K)
heuristic on the switch for DCTCP is e.g., 20 packets (30KB) at
1Gbps, and 65 packets (~100KB) at 10Gbps (K > 1/7 * C * RTT, [4]).

In above tests, for each switch port, traffic was segregated into two
queues. For any packet with a DSCP of 0x01 - or equivalently a TOS of
0x04 - the packet was placed into the DCTCP queue. All other packets
were placed into the default drop-tail queue. For the DCTCP queue,
RED/ECN marking was enabled, here, with a marking threshold of 75 KB.
More details however, we refer you to the paper [2] under section 3).

There are no code changes required to applications running in user
space. DCTCP has been implemented in full *isolation* of the rest of
the TCP code as its own congestion control module, so that it can run
without a need to expose code to the core of the TCP stack, and thus
nothing changes for non-DCTCP users.

Changes in the CA framework code are minimal, and DCTCP algorithm
operates on mechanisms that are already available in most Silicon.
The gain (dctcp_shift_g) is currently a fixed constant (1/16) from
the paper, but we leave the option that it can be chosen carefully
to a different value by the user.

In case DCTCP is being used and ECN support on peer site is off,
DCTCP falls back after 3WHS to operate in normal TCP Reno mode.

DataCenter TCP (DCTCP) determines cwnd growth based on ECN information
and ACK properties, e.g. ACK that updates window is treated differently
than DUPACK.

Also DCTCP needs information whether ACK was delayed ACK. Furthermore,
DCTCP also implements a CE state machine that keeps track of CE markings
of incoming packets.

Therefore, extend the congestion control framework to provide these
event types, so that DCTCP can be properly implemented as a normal
congestion algorithm module outside of the core stack.

The congestion control ops "cwnd_event" currently supports
CA_EVENT_FAST_ACK and CA_EVENT_SLOW_ACK events (among others).
Both FAST and SLOW_ACK are only used by Westwood congestion
control algorithm.

This removes both flags from cwnd_event and adds a new
in_ack_event callback for this. The goal is to be able to
provide more detailed information about ACKs, such as whether
ECE flag was set, or whether the ACK resulted in a window
update.

It is required for DataCenter TCP (DCTCP) congestion control
algorithm as it makes a different choice depending on ECE being
set or not.

This patch adds a flag to TCP congestion algorithms that allows
for requesting to mark IPv4/IPv6 sockets with transport as ECN
capable, that is, ECT(0), when required by a congestion algorithm.

It is currently used and needed in DataCenter TCP (DCTCP), as it
requires both peers to assert ECT on all IP packets sent - it
uses ECN feedback (i.e. CE, Congestion Encountered information)
from switches inside the data center to derive feedback to the
end hosts.

Therefore, simply add a new flag to icsk_ca_ops. Note that DCTCP's
algorithm/behaviour slightly diverges from RFC3168, therefore this
is only (!) enabled iff the assigned congestion control ops module
has requested this. By that, we can tightly couple this logic really
only to the provided congestion control ops.

Split assignment and initialization from one into two functions.

This is required by followup patches that add Datacenter TCP
(DCTCP) congestion control algorithm - we need to be able to
determine if the connection is moderated by DCTCP before the
3WHS has finished.

As we walk the available congestion control list during the
assignment, we are always guaranteed to have Reno present as
it's fixed compiled-in. Therefore, since we're doing the
early assignment, we don't have a real use for the Reno alias
tcp_init_congestion_ops anymore and can thus remove it.

Actual usage of the congestion control operations are being
made after the 3WHS has finished, in some cases however we
can access get_info() via diag if implemented, therefore we
need to zero out the private area for those modules.

While doing high throughput test on a BQL enabled NIC,
I found a very high cost in ndo_start_xmit() when accessing BQL data.

It turned out the problem was caused by compiler trying to be
smart, but involving a bad MESI transaction :

  0.05 │  mov    0xc0(%rax),%edi    // LOAD dql->num_queued
  0.48 │  mov    %edx,0xc8(%rax)    // STORE dql->last_obj_cnt = count
 58.23 │  add    %edx,%edi
  0.58 │  cmp    %edi,0xc4(%rax)
  0.76 │  mov    %edi,0xc0(%rax)    // STORE dql->num_queued += count
  0.72 │  js     bd8

I got an incredible 10 % gain [1] by making sure cpu do not attempt
to get the cache line in Shared mode, but directly requests for
ownership.

New code :
	mov    %edx,0xc8(%rax)  // STORE dql->last_obj_cnt = count
	add    %edx,0xc0(%rax)  // RMW   dql->num_queued += count
	mov    0xc4(%rax),%ecx  // LOAD dql->adj_limit
	mov    0xc0(%rax),%edx  // LOAD dql->num_queued
	cmp    %edx,%ecx

The TX completion was running from another cpu, with high interrupts
rate.

Note that I am using barrier() as a soft hint, as mb() here could be
too heavy cost.
