2013-07-23tcp: use RTT from SACK for RTOYuchung Cheng
If RTT is not available because Karn's check has failed or no new packet is acked, use the RTT measured from SACK to estimate the RTO. The sender can continue to estimate the RTO during loss recovery or reordering event upon receiving non-partial ACKs. This also changes when the RTO is re-armed. Previously it is only re-armed when some data is cummulatively acknowledged (i.e., SND.UNA advances), but now it is re-armed whenever RTT estimator is updated. This feature is particularly useful to reduce spurious timeout for buffer bloat including cellular carriers [1], and RTT estimation on reordering events.

2013-07-23tcp: measure RTT from new SACKYuchung Cheng
Take RTT sample if an ACK selectively acks some sequences that have never been retransmitted. The Karn's algorithm does not apply even if that ACK (s)acks other retransmitted sequences, because it must been generated by an original but perhaps out-of-order packet. There is no ambiguity. In case when multiple blocks are newly sacked because of ACK losses the earliest block is used to measure RTT, similar to cummulative ACKs. Such RTT samples allow the sender to estimate the RTO during loss recovery and packet reordering events. It is still useful even with TCP timestamps. That's because during these events the SND.UNA may not advance preventing RTT samples from TS ECR (thus the FLAG_ACKED check before calling tcp_ack_update_rtt()). Therefore this new RTT source is complementary to existing ACK and TS RTT mechanisms. This patch does not update the RTO. It is done in the next patch.

2013-07-23tcp: prefer packet timing to TS-ECR for RTTYuchung Cheng
Prefer packet timings to TS-ecr for RTT measurements when both sources are available. That's because broken middle-boxes and remote peer can return packets with corrupted TS ECR fields. Similarly most congestion controls that require RTT signals favor timing-based sources as well. Also check for bad TS ECR values to avoid RTT blow-ups. It has happened on production Web servers.

2013-07-23tcp: consolidate SYNACK RTT samplingYuchung Cheng
The first patch consolidates SYNACK and other RTT measurement to use a central function tcp_ack_update_rtt(). A (small) bonus is now SYNACK RTT measurement happens after PAWS check, potentially reducing the impact of RTO seeding on bad TCP timestamps values.

2013-07-16ipv4: set transport header earlierEric Dumazet
commit 45f00f99d6e ("ipv4: tcp: clean up tcp_v4_early_demux()") added a performance regression for non GRO traffic, basically disabling IP early demux. IPv6 stack resets transport header in ip6_rcv() before calling IP early demux in ip6_rcv_finish(), while IPv4 does this only in ip_local_deliver_finish(), _after_ IP early demux. GRO traffic happened to enable IP early demux because transport header is also set in inet_gro_receive() Instead of reverting the faulty commit, we can make IPv4/IPv6 behave the same : transport_header should be set in ip_rcv() instead of ip_local_deliver_finish() ip_local_deliver_finish() can also use skb_network_header_len() which is faster than ip_hdrlen() Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: Neal Cardwell <ncardwell@google.com> Cc: Tom Herbert <therbert@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-07-11gre: Fix MTU sizing check for gretap tunnelsAlexander Duyck
This change fixes an MTU sizing issue seen with gretap tunnels when non-gso packets are sent from the interface. In my case I was able to reproduce the issue by simply sending a ping of 1421 bytes with the gretap interface created on a device with a standard 1500 mtu. This fix is based on the fact that the tunnel mtu is already adjusted by dev->hard_header_len so it would make sense that any packets being compared against that mtu should also be adjusted by hard_header_len and the tunnel header instead of just the tunnel header.

2013-07-11gso: Update tunnel segmentation to support Tx checksum offloadAlexander Duyck
This change makes it so that the GRE and VXLAN tunnels can make use of Tx checksum offload support provided by some drivers via the hw_enc_features. Without this fix enabling GSO means sacrificing Tx checksum offload and this actually leads to a performance regression as shown below: Utilization Send Throughput local GSO 10^6bits/s % S state 6276.51 8.39 enabled 7123.52 8.42 disabled To resolve this it was necessary to address two items. First netif_skb_features needed to be updated so that it would correctly handle the Trans Ether Bridging protocol without impacting the need to check for Q-in-Q tagging. To do this it was necessary to update harmonize_features so that it used skb_network_protocol instead of just using the outer protocol. Second it was necessary to update the GRE and UDP tunnel segmentation offloads so that they would reset the encapsulation bit and inner header offsets after the offload was complete. As a result of this change I have seen the following results on a interface with Tx checksum enabled for encapsulated frames: Utilization Send Throughput local GSO 10^6bits/s % S state 7123.52 8.42 disabled 8321.75 5.43 enabled v2: Instead of replacing refrence to skb->protocol with skb_network_protocol just replace the protocol reference in harmonize_features to allow for double VLAN tag checks.

Pull networking updates from David Miller: "This is a re-do of the net-next pull request for the current merge window. The only difference from the one I made the other day is that this has Eliezer's interface renames and the timeout handling changes made based upon your feedback, as well as a few bug fixes that have trickeled in. Highlights: 1) Low latency device polling, eliminating the cost of interrupt handling and context switches. Allows direct polling of a network device from socket operations, such as recvmsg() and poll(). Currently ixgbe, mlx4, and bnx2x support this feature. Full high level description, performance numbers, and design in commit 0a4db187a999 ("Merge branch 'll_poll'") From Eliezer Tamir. 2) With the routing cache removed, ip_check_mc_rcu() gets exercised more than ever before in the case where we have lots of multicast addresses.

From Daniel Borkmann. 11) Allow packets to cross network namespaces when traversing tunnel devices. From Nicolas Dichtel. 12) Allow monitoring netlink traffic via AF_PACKET sockets, in a manner akin to how we monitor real network traffic via ptype_all. From Daniel Borkmann. 13) Several bug fixes and improvements for the new alx device driver, from Johannes Berg. 14) Fix scalability issues in the netem packet scheduler's time queue, by using an rbtree.

2013-06-29ipv4: use next hop exceptions also for input routesTimo Teräs
Commit d2d68ba9 (ipv4: Cache input routes in fib_info nexthops) assmued that "locally destined, and routed packets, never trigger PMTU events or redirects that will be processed by us". However, it seems that tunnel devices do trigger PMTU events in certain cases. At least ip_gre, ip6_gre, sit, and ipip do use the inner flow's skb_dst(skb)->ops->update_pmtu to propage mtu information from the outer flows. These can cause the inner flow mtu to be decreased. If next hop exceptions are not consulted for pmtu, IP fragmentation will not be done properly for these routes. It also seems that we really need to have the PMTU information always for netfilter TCPMSS clamp-to-pmtu feature to work properly. So for the time being, cache separate copies of input routes for each next hop exception.

I cannot find any reasonable use of the large data transfer using netlink in that path, moreover this helps to skip extra skb_clone handling. I found two more netlink clients that are cloning the skbs, but they are not in the sendmsg path. Therefore, the sole client cloning that I found seems to be the fib frontend.

2013-06-28sit: add support of x-netnsNicolas Dichtel
This patch allows to switch the netns when packet is encapsulated or decapsulated. In other word, the encapsulated packet is received in a netns, where the lookup is done to find the tunnel. Once the tunnel is found, the packet is decapsulated and injecting into the corresponding interface which stands to another netns. When one of the two netns is removed, the tunnel is destroyed.

2013-06-20tcp: introduce a per-route knob for quick ackCong Wang
In previous discussions, I tried to find some reasonable heuristics for delayed ACK, however this seems not possible, according to Eric: "ACKS might also be delayed because of bidirectional traffic, and is more controlled by the application response time. TCP stack can not easily estimate it." "ACK can be incredibly useful to recover from losses in a short time. The vast majority of TCP sessions are small lived, and we send one ACK per received segment anyway at beginning or retransmits to let the sender smoothly increase its cwnd, so an auto-tuning facility wont help them that much." and according to David: "ACKs are the only information we have to detect loss. And, for the same reasons that TCP VEGAS is fundamentally broken, we cannot measure the pipe or some other receiver-side-visible piece of information to determine when it's "safe" to stretch ACK. And even if it's "safe", we should not do it so that losses are accurately detected and we don't spuriously retransmit. The only way to know when the bandwidth increases is to "test" it, by sending more and more packets until drops happen. That's why all successful congestion control algorithms must operate on explicited tested pieces of information. Similarly, it's not really possible to universally know if it's safe to stretch ACK or not." It still makes sense to enable or disable quick ack mode like what TCP_QUICK_ACK does. Similar to TCP_QUICK_ACK option, but for people who can't modify the source code and still wants to control TCP delayed ACK behavior. As David suggested, this should belong to per-path scope, since different pathes may want different behaviors.

Conflicts: drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/Kconfig drivers/net/xen-netback/netback.c net/batman-adv/bat_iv_ogm.c net/wireless/nl80211.c The ath9k Kconfig conflict was a change of a Kconfig option name right next to the deletion of another option. The xen-netback conflict was overlapping changes involving the handling of the notify list in xen_netbk_rx_action(). Batman conflict resolution provided by Antonio Quartulli, basically keep everything in both conflict hunks. The nl80211 conflict is a little more involved. In 'net' we added a dynamic memory allocation to nl80211_dump_wiphy() to fix a race that Linus reported. Meanwhile in 'net-next' the handlers were converted to use pre and post doit handlers which use a flag to determine whether to hold the RTNL mutex around the operation. However, the dump handlers to not use this logic. Instead they have to explicitly do the locking. There were apparent bugs in the conversion of nl80211_dump_wiphy() in that we were not dropping the RTNL mutex in all the return paths, and it seems we very much should be doing so. So I fixed that whilst handling the overlapping changes. To simplify the initial returns, I take the RTNL mutex after we try to allocate 'tb'. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2013-06-13tcp: properly send new data in fast recovery in first RTTYuchung Cheng
Linux sends new unset data during disorder and recovery state if all (suspected) lost packets have been retransmitted ( RFC5681, section 3.2 step 1 & 2, RFC3517 section 4, NexSeg() Rule 2). One requirement is to keep the receive window about twice the estimated sender's congestion window (tcp_rcv_space_adjust()), assuming the fast retransmits repair the losses in the next round trip. But currently it's not the case on the first round trip in either normal or Fast Open connection, beucase the initial receive window is identical to (expected) sender's initial congestion window.
