2013-04-02ipconfig: add informative timeout messages while waiting for carrierPaul Gortmaker
Commit 3fb72f1e6e6165c5f495e8dc11c5bbd14c73385c ("ipconfig wait for carrier") added a "wait for carrier on at least one interface" policy, with a worst case maximum wait of two minutes. However, if you encounter this, you won't get any feedback from the console as to the nature of what is going on. You just see the booting process hang for two minutes and then continue. Here we add a message so the user knows what is going on, and hence can take action to rectify the situation (e.g. fix network cable or whatever.) After the 1st 10s pause, output now begins that looks like this: Waiting up to 110 more seconds for network. Waiting up to 100 more seconds for network. Waiting up to 90 more seconds for network. Waiting up to 80 more seconds for network. ... Since most systems will have no problem getting link/carrier in the 1st 10s, the only people who will see these messages are people with genuine issues that need to be resolved.

2013-03-30ip_gre: don't overwrite iflink during net_dev initAntonio Quartulli
iflink is currently set to 0 in __gre_tunnel_init(). This function is invoked in gre_tap_init() and ipgre_tunnel_init() which are both used to initialise the ndo_init field of the respective net_device_ops structs (ipgre.. and gre_tap..) used by GRE interfaces. However, in netdevice_register() iflink is first set to -1, then ndo_init is invoked and then iflink is assigned to a proper value if and only if it still was -1. Assigning 0 to iflink in ndo_init is therefore first preventing netdev_register() to correctly assign it a proper value and then breaking iflink at all since 0 has not correct meaning. Fix this by removing the iflink assignment in __gre_tunnel_init(). Introduced by c54419321455631079c7d6e60bc732dd0c5914c5 ("GRE: Refactor GRE tunneling code.")

2013-03-27net: frag, avoid several CPUs grabbing same frag queue during LRU evictor loopJesper Dangaard Brouer
The LRU list is protected by its own lock, since commit 3ef0eb0db4 (net: frag, move LRU list maintenance outside of rwlock), and no-longer by a read_lock. This makes it possible, to remove the inet_frag_queue, which is about to be "evicted", from the LRU list head. This avoids the problem, of several CPUs grabbing the same frag queue. Note, cannot remove the inet_frag_lru_del() call in fq_unlink() called by inet_frag_kill(), because inet_frag_kill() is also used in other situations. Thus, we use list_del_init() to allow this double list_del to work. Signed-off-by: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <brouer@redhat.com> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-03-26firewire net, ipv4 arp: Extend hardware address and remove driver-level ↵YOSHIFUJI Hideaki / 吉藤英明
packet inspection. Inspection of upper layer protocol is considered harmful, especially if it is about ARP or other stateful upper layer protocol; driver cannot (and should not) have full state of them. IPv4 over Firewire module used to inspect ARP (both in sending path and in receiving path), and record peer's GUID, max packet size, max speed and fifo address. This patch removes such inspection by extending our "hardware address" definition to include other information as well: max packet size, max speed and fifo. By doing this, The neighbour module in networking subsystem can cache them. Note: As we have started ignoring sspd and max_rec in ARP/NDP, those information will not be used in the driver when sending. When a packet is being sent, the IP layer fills our pseudo header with the extended "hardware address", including GUID and fifo. The driver can look-up node-id (the real but rather volatile low-level address) by GUID, and then the module can send the packet to the wire using parameters provided in the extendedn hardware address. This approach is realistic because IP over IEEE1394 (RFC2734) and IPv6 over IEEE1394 (RFC3146) share same "hardware address" format in their address resolution protocols. Here, extended "hardware address" is defined as follows: union fwnet_hwaddr { u8 u[16]; struct { __be64 uniq_id; /* EUI-64 */ u8 max_rec; /* max packet size */ u8 sspd; /* max speed */ __be16 fifo_hi; /* hi 16bits of FIFO addr */ __be32 fifo_lo; /* lo 32bits of FIFO addr */ } __packed uc; }; Note that Hardware address is declared as union, so that we can map full IP address into this, when implementing MCAP (Multicast Cannel Allocation Protocol) for IPv6, but IP and ARP subsystem do not need to know this format in detail. One difference between original ARP (RFC826) and 1394 ARP (RFC2734) is that 1394 ARP Request/Reply do not contain the target hardware address field (aka ar$tha). This difference is handled in the ARP subsystem. CC: Stephan Gatzka <stephan.gatzka@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki <yoshfuji@linux-ipv6.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-03-21tcp: implement RFC5682 F-RTOYuchung Cheng
This patch implements F-RTO (foward RTO recovery): When the first retransmission after timeout is acknowledged, F-RTO sends new data instead of old data. If the next ACK acknowledges some never-retransmitted data, then the timeout was spurious and the congestion state is reverted. Otherwise if the next ACK selectively acknowledges the new data, then the timeout was genuine and the loss recovery continues. This idea applies to recurring timeouts as well. While F-RTO sends different data during timeout recovery, it does not (and should not) change the congestion control. The implementaion follows the three steps of SACK enhanced algorithm (section 3) in RFC5682. Step 1 is in tcp_enter_loss(). Step 2 and 3 are in tcp_process_loss(). The basic version is not supported because SACK enhanced version also works for non-SACK connections. The new implementation is functionally in parity with the old F-RTO implementation except the one case where it increases undo events: In addition to the RFC algorithm, a spurious timeout may be detected without sending data in step 2, as long as the SACK confirms not all the original data are dropped. When this happens, the sender will undo the cwnd and perhaps enter fast recovery instead. This additional check increases the F-RTO undo events by 5x compared to the prior implementation on Google Web servers, since the sender often does not have new data to send for HTTP. Note F-RTO may detect spurious timeout before Eifel with timestamps does so.

2013-03-21tcp: refactor F-RTOYuchung Cheng
The patch series refactor the F-RTO feature (RFC4138/5682). This is to simplify the loss recovery processing. Existing F-RTO was developed during the experimental stage (RFC4138) and has many experimental features. It takes a separate code path from the traditional timeout processing by overloading CA_Disorder instead of using CA_Loss state. This complicates CA_Disorder state handling because it's also used for handling dubious ACKs and undos. While the algorithm in the RFC does not change the congestion control, the implementation intercepts congestion control in various places (e.g., frto_cwnd in tcp_ack()). The new code implements newer F-RTO RFC5682 using CA_Loss processing path. F-RTO becomes a small extension in the timeout processing and interfaces with congestion control and Eifel undo modules. It lets congestion control (module) determines how many to send independently. F-RTO only chooses what to send in order to detect spurious retranmission. If timeout is found spurious it invokes existing Eifel undo algorithms like DSACK or TCP timestamp based detection. The first patch removes all F-RTO code except the sysctl_tcp_frto is left for the new implementation. Since CA_EVENT_FRTO is removed, TCP westwood now computes ssthresh on regular timeout CA_EVENT_LOSS event.

2013-03-20udp: add encap_destroy callbackTom Parkin
Users of udp encapsulation currently have an encap_rcv callback which they can use to hook into the udp receive path. In situations where a encapsulation user allocates resources associated with a udp encap socket, it may be convenient to be able to also hook the proto .destroy operation. For example, if an encap user holds a reference to the udp socket, the destroy hook might be used to relinquish this reference.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== The following patchset contains 7 Netfilter/IPVS fixes for 3.9-rc, they are: * Restrict IPv6 stateless NPT targets to the mangle table. Many users are complaining that this target does not work in the nat table, which is the wrong table for it, from Florian Westphal. * Fix possible use before initialization in the netns init path of several conntrack protocol trackers (introduced recently while improving conntrack netns support), from Gao Feng. * Fix incorrect initialization of copy_range in nfnetlink_queue, spotted by Eric Dumazet during the NFWS2013, patch from myself. * Fix wrong calculation of next SCTP chunk in IPVS, from Julian Anastasov. * Remove rcu_read_lock section in IPVS while calling ipv4_update_pmtu not required anymore after change introduced in 3.7, again from Julian. * Fix SYN looping in IPVS state sync if the backup is used a real server in DR/TUN modes, this required a new /proc entry to disable the director function when acting as backup, also from Julian. * Remove leftover IP_NF_QUEUE Kconfig after ip_queue removal, noted by Paul Bolle. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-03-19inet: limit length of fragment queue hash table bucket listsHannes Frederic Sowa
This patch introduces a constant limit of the fragment queue hash table bucket list lengths. Currently the limit 128 is choosen somewhat arbitrary and just ensures that we can fill up the fragment cache with empty packets up to the default ip_frag_high_thresh limits. It should just protect from list iteration eating considerable amounts of cpu. If we reach the maximum length in one hash bucket a warning is printed. This is implemented on the caller side of inet_frag_find to distinguish between the different users of inet_fragment.c. I dropped the out of memory warning in the ipv4 fragment lookup path, because we already get a warning by the slab allocator.

2013-03-18tcp: dont handle MTU reduction on LISTEN socketEric Dumazet
When an ICMP ICMP_FRAG_NEEDED (or ICMPV6_PKT_TOOBIG) message finds a LISTEN socket, and this socket is currently owned by the user, we set TCP_MTU_REDUCED_DEFERRED flag in listener tsq_flags. This is bad because if we clone the parent before it had a chance to clear the flag, the child inherits the tsq_flags value, and next tcp_release_cb() on the child will decrement sk_refcnt. Result is that we might free a live TCP socket, as reported by Dormando. IPv4: Attempt to release TCP socket in state 1 Fix this issue by testing sk_state against TCP_LISTEN early, so that we set TCP_MTU_REDUCED_DEFERRED on appropriate sockets (not a LISTEN one) This bug was introduced in commit 563d34d05786 (tcp: dont drop MTU reduction indications) Reported-by: dormando <dormando@rydia.net> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

unconditionally" This reverts commit 412ed94744d16806fbec3bd250fd94e71cde5a1f. The commit is wrong as tiph points to the outer IPv4 header which is installed at ipgre_header() and not the inner one which is protocol dependant. This commit broke succesfully opennhrp which use PF_PACKET socket with ETH_P_NHRP protocol. Additionally ssl_addr is set to the link-layer IPv4 address. This address is written by ipgre_header() to the skb earlier, and this is the IPv4 header tiph should point to - regardless of the inner protocol payload.

2013-03-12tcp: TLP loss detection.Nandita Dukkipati
This is the second of the TLP patch series; it augments the basic TLP algorithm with a loss detection scheme. This patch implements a mechanism for loss detection when a Tail loss probe retransmission plugs a hole thereby masking packet loss from the sender. The loss detection algorithm relies on counting TLP dupacks as outlined in Sec. 3 of: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-dukkipati-tcpm-tcp-loss-probe-01 The basic idea is: Sender keeps track of TLP "episode" upon retransmission of a TLP packet. An episode ends when the sender receives an ACK above the SND.NXT (tracked by tlp_high_seq) at the time of the episode. We want to make sure that before the episode ends the sender receives a "TLP dupack", indicating that the TLP retransmission was unnecessary, so there was no loss/hole that needed plugging. If the sender gets no TLP dupack before the end of the episode, then it reduces ssthresh and the congestion window, because the TLP packet arriving at the receiver probably plugged a hole.

2013-03-12tcp: Tail loss probe (TLP)Nandita Dukkipati
This patch series implement the Tail loss probe (TLP) algorithm described in http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-dukkipati-tcpm-tcp-loss-probe-01. The first patch implements the basic algorithm. TLP's goal is to reduce tail latency of short transactions. It achieves this by converting retransmission timeouts (RTOs) occuring due to tail losses (losses at end of transactions) into fast recovery. TLP transmits one packet in two round-trips when a connection is in Open state and isn't receiving any ACKs. The transmitted packet, aka loss probe, can be either new or a retransmission. When there is tail loss, the ACK from a loss probe triggers FACK/early-retransmit based fast recovery, thus avoiding a costly RTO. In the absence of loss, there is no change in the connection state. PTO stands for probe timeout. It is a timer event indicating that an ACK is overdue and triggers a loss probe packet. The PTO value is set to max(2*SRTT, 10ms) and is adjusted to account for delayed ACK timer when there is only one oustanding packet. TLP Algorithm On transmission of new data in Open state: -> packets_out > 1: schedule PTO in max(2*SRTT, 10ms). -> packets_out == 1: schedule PTO in max(2*RTT, 1.5*RTT + 200ms) -> PTO = min(PTO, RTO) Conditions for scheduling PTO: -> Connection is in Open state. -> Connection is either cwnd limited or no new data to send. -> Number of probes per tail loss episode is limited to one. -> Connection is SACK enabled. When PTO fires: new_segment_exists: -> transmit new segment. -> packets_out++. cwnd remains same. no_new_packet: -> retransmit the last segment. Its ACK triggers FACK or early retransmit based recovery. ACK path: -> rearm RTO at start of ACK processing. -> reschedule PTO if need be. In addition, the patch includes a small variation to the Early Retransmit (ER) algorithm, such that ER and TLP together can in principle recover any N-degree of tail loss through fast recovery. TLP is controlled by the same sysctl as ER, tcp_early_retrans sysctl. tcp_early_retrans==0; disables TLP and ER. ==1; enables RFC5827 ER. ==2; delayed ER. ==3; TLP and delayed ER. [DEFAULT] ==4; TLP only. The TLP patch series have been extensively tested on Google Web servers. It is most effective for short Web trasactions, where it reduced RTOs by 15% and improved HTTP response time (average by 6%, 99th percentile by 10%). The transmitted probes account for <0.5% of the overall transmissions.

This is needed in order to detect if the timestamp option appears more than once in a packet, to remove the option if the packet is fragmented, etc. My previous change neglected to store the option location when the router addresses were prespecified and Pointer > Length. But now the option location is also stored when Flag is an unrecognized value, to ensure these option handling behaviors are still performed.

With recent patches from Pravin, most tunnels can't use iptunnel_xmit() any more, due to ip_select_ident() and skb->ip_summed. But we can just move these operations out of iptunnel_xmit(), so that tunnels can use it again. This by the way fixes a bug in vxlan (missing nf_reset()) for net-next.
