On paths with firewalls dropping SYN with data or experimental TCP options, Fast Open connections will have experience SYN timeout and bad performance. The solution is to track such incidents in the cookie cache and disables Fast Open temporarily. Since only the original SYN includes data and/or Fast Open option, the SYN-ACK has some tell-tale sign (tcp_rcv_fastopen_synack()) to detect such drops. If a path has recurring Fast Open SYN drops, Fast Open is disabled for 2^(recurring_losses) minutes starting from four minutes up to roughly one and half day. sendmsg with MSG_FASTOPEN flag will succeed but it behaves as connect() then write().

sendmsg() (or sendto()) with MSG_FASTOPEN is a combo of connect(2) and write(2). The application should replace connect() with it to send data in the opening SYN packet. For blocking socket, sendmsg() blocks until all the data are buffered locally and the handshake is completed like connect() call. It returns similar errno like connect() if the TCP handshake fails. For non-blocking socket, it returns the number of bytes queued (and transmitted in the SYN-data packet) if cookie is available. If cookie is not available, it transmits a data-less SYN packet with Fast Open cookie request option and returns -EINPROGRESS like connect(). Using MSG_FASTOPEN on connecting or connected socket will result in simlar errno like repeating connect() calls. Therefore the application should only use this flag on new sockets. The buffer size of sendmsg() is independent of the MSS of the connection. Signed-off-by: NYuchung Cheng <ycheng@google.com> Acked-by: NEric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

On receiving the SYN-ACK after SYN-data, the client needs to a) update the cached MSS and cookie (if included in SYN-ACK) b) retransmit the data not yet acknowledged by the SYN-ACK in the final ACK of the handshake.

This patch implements sending SYN-data in tcp_connect(). The data is from tcp_sendmsg() with flag MSG_FASTOPEN (implemented in a later patch). The length of the cookie in tcp_fastopen_req, init'd to 0, controls the type of the SYN. If the cookie is not cached (len==0), the host sends data-less SYN with Fast Open cookie request option to solicit a cookie from the remote. If cookie is not available (len > 0), the host sends a SYN-data with Fast Open cookie option. If cookie length is negative, the SYN will not include any Fast Open option (for fall back operations). To deal with middleboxes that may drop SYN with data or experimental TCP option, the SYN-data is only sent once. SYN retransmits do not include data or Fast Open options. The connection will fall back to regular TCP handshake. Signed-off-by: NYuchung Cheng <ycheng@google.com> Acked-by: NEric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

This patch impelements the common code for both the client and server. 1. TCP Fast Open option processing. Since Fast Open does not have an option number assigned by IANA yet, it shares the experiment option code 254 by implementing draft-ietf-tcpm-experimental-options with a 16 bits magic number 0xF989. This enables global experiments without clashing the scarce(2) experimental options available for TCP. When the draft status becomes standard (maybe), the client should switch to the new option number assigned while the server supports both numbers for transistion. 2. The new sysctl tcp_fastopen 3.

In its receive path, mlx4_en driver maps each page chunk that it pushes to the hardware and unmaps it when pushing it up the stack. This limits throughput to about 3Gbps on a Power7 8-core machine. One solution is to map the entire allocated page at once. However, this requires that we keep track of every page fragment we give to a descriptor. We also need to work with the discipline that all fragments will be released (in the sense that it will not be reused by the driver anymore) in the order they are allocated to the driver. This requires that we don't reuse any fragments, every single one of them must be reallocated. We do that by releasing all the fragments that are processed and only after finished processing the descriptors, we start the refill. We also must somehow guarantee that we either refill all fragments in a descriptor or none at all, without resorting to giving up a page fragment that we would have already given. Otherwise, we would break the discipline of only releasing the fragments in the order they were allocated. This has passed page allocation fault injections (restricted to the driver by using required-start and required-end) and device hotplug while 16 TCP streams were able to deliver more than 9Gbps.

commit 9ac32e1b firmware: convert e100 driver to request_firmware() did a straight conversion of the in-driver ucode to external files. This introduced the possibility of the driver failing to enable an interface due to missing ucode. There was no evaluation of the importance of the ucode at the time. Based on comments in earlier versions of this driver, and in the source code for the FreeBSD fxp driver, we can assume that the ucode implements the "CPU Cycle Saver" feature on supported adapters. Although generally wanted, this is an optional feature. The ucode source is not available, preventing it from being included in free distributions. This creates unnecessary problems for the end users. Doing a network install based on a free distribution installer requires the user to download and insert the ucode into the installer. Making the ucode optional when possible improves the user experience and driver usability. The ucode for some adapters include a bugfix, making it essential. We continue to fail for these adapters unless the ucode is available. Signed-off-by: NBjørn Mork <bjorn@mork.no> Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The current code for reading the EEPROM via ethtool in the asix driver has a few issues. It cannot handle odd length values (accesses must be aligned at 16 bit boundaries) and interprets the offset provided by ethtool as 16 bit word offset instead as byte offset. The new code for asix_get_eeprom() introduced by this patch is modeled after the code in drivers/net/ethernet/atheros/atl1e/atl1e_ethtool.c and provides read access to the entire EEPROM with arbitrary offsets and lengths.

tcp_v4_send_reset() and tcp_v4_send_ack() use a single socket per network namespace. This leads to bad behavior on multiqueue NICS, because many cpus contend for the socket lock and once socket lock is acquired, extra false sharing on various socket fields slow down the operations. To better resist to attacks, we use a percpu socket. Each cpu can run without contention, using appropriate memory (local node) Additional features : 1) We also mirror the queue_mapping of the incoming skb, so that answers use the same queue if possible. 2) Setting SOCK_USE_WRITE_QUEUE socket flag speedup sock_wfree() 3) We now limit the number of in-flight RST/ACK [1] packets per cpu, instead of per namespace, and we honor the sysctl_wmem_default limit dynamically. (Prior to this patch, sysctl_wmem_default value was copied at boot time, so any further change would not affect tcp_sock limit) [1] These packets are only generated when no socket was matched for the incoming packet.

Use RFS infrastructure and flow steering in HW to keep CPU affinity of rx interrupts and application per TCP stream. A flow steering filter is added to the HW whenever the RFS ndo callback is invoked by core networking code. Because the invocation takes place in interrupt context, the actual setup of HW is done using workqueue. Whenever new filter is added, the driver checks for expiry of existing filters. Since there's window in time between the point where the core RFS code invoked the ndo callback, to the point where the HW is configured from the workqueue context, the 2nd, 3rd etc packets from that stream will cause the net core to invoke the callback again and again. To prevent inefficient/double configuration of the HW, the filters are kept in a database which is indexed using hash function to enable fast access.

This change essentially makes it so that we can enable almost all of the features all at once. This patch allows for the combination of SR-IOV, DCB, and FCoE in the case of the x540. It also beefs up the SR-IOV by adding support for RSS to the PF. The testing matrix gets to be very complex for this patch as there are a number of different features and subsets for queueing options. I tried to narrow these down a bit by restricting the PF to only supporting 4TC DCB when it is enabled in addition to SR-IOV.

In ixgbevf_get_ringparam we could run into a NULL pointer dereference if the rings were not allocated when we attempted the call. To prevent that we can just access the tx/rx_ring_count values instead of attempting to access the rings to get the count. This change corrects a memory leak and memory corruption in ixgbevf_set_ringparam. The memory leak was due to us not freeing the resources from the ring before overwriting them. This change corrects the memory leak by making certain to call ixgbe_free_tx/rx_resources on the rings prior to freeing them. The memory corruption was because we were replacing the rings but not updating the q_vectors. It addresses the memory corruption by leaving the rings in place and instead just copying the contents of the new rings into the existing rings.

When attaching a VLAN to a VF, frames with a 802.1q priority appeared untagged on the VF hence not reaching the VLAN, where frames with priority 0 where tagged as expected and seen by the VLAN device.
