2012-07-22sctp: Implement quick failover draft from tsvwgNeil Horman
I've seen several attempts recently made to do quick failover of sctp transports by reducing various retransmit timers and counters. While its possible to implement a faster failover on multihomed sctp associations, its not particularly robust, in that it can lead to unneeded retransmits, as well as false connection failures due to intermittent latency on a network. Instead, lets implement the new ietf quick failover draft found here: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-nishida-tsvwg-sctp-failover-05 This will let the sctp stack identify transports that have had a small number of errors, and avoid using them quickly until their reliability can be re-established. I've tested this out on two virt guests connected via multiple isolated virt networks and believe its in compliance with the above draft and works well.

This adjusts the call to dst_ops->update_pmtu() so that we can transparently handle the fact that, in the future, the dst itself can be invalidated by the PMTU update (when we have non-host routes cached in sockets). Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2012-07-01sctp: be more restrictive in transport selection on bundled sacksNeil Horman
It was noticed recently that when we send data on a transport, its possible that we might bundle a sack that arrived on a different transport. While this isn't a major problem, it does go against the SHOULD requirement in section 6.4 of RFC 2960: An endpoint SHOULD transmit reply chunks (e.g., SACK, HEARTBEAT ACK, etc.) to the same destination transport address from which it received the DATA or control chunk to which it is replying. This rule should also be followed if the endpoint is bundling DATA chunks together with the reply chunk. This patch seeks to correct that. It restricts the bundling of sack operations to only those transports which have moved the ctsn of the association forward since the last sack. By doing this we guarantee that we only bundle outbound saks on a transport that has received a chunk since the last sack. This brings us into stricter compliance with the RFC. Vlad had initially suggested that we strictly allow only sack bundling on the transport that last moved the ctsn forward. While this makes sense, I was concerned that doing so prevented us from bundling in the case where we had received chunks that moved the ctsn on multiple transports. In those cases, the RFC allows us to select any of the transports having received chunks to bundle the sack on. so I've modified the approach to allow for that, by adding a state variable to each transport that tracks weather it has moved the ctsn since the last sack. This I think keeps our behavior (and performance), close enough to our current profile that I think we can do this without a sysctl knob to enable/disable it.

2011-12-19sctp: fix incorrect overflow check on autocloseXi Wang
Commit 8ffd3208 voids the previous patches f6778aab and 810c0719 for limiting the autoclose value. If userspace passes in -1 on 32-bit platform, the overflow check didn't work and autoclose would be set to 0xffffffff. This patch defines a max_autoclose (in seconds) for limiting the value and exposes it through sysctl, with the following intentions. 1) Avoid overflowing autoclose * HZ. 2) Keep the default autoclose bound consistent across 32- and 64-bit platforms (INT_MAX / HZ in this patch). 3) Keep the autoclose value consistent between setsockopt() and getsockopt() calls.

The point of max.burst is to limit micro-bursts in response to large acks. This still happens, as max.burst is still applied to each transmit opportunity. It will also apply if a very large send is made (greater then allowed by burst).

2009-11-14sctp: Set source addresses on the association before adding transportsVlad Yasevich
Recent commit 8da645e101a8c20c6073efda3c7cc74eec01b87f sctp: Get rid of an extra routing lookup when adding a transport introduced a regression in the connection setup. The behavior was different between IPv4 and IPv6. IPv4 case ended up working because the route lookup routing returned a NULL route, which triggered another route lookup later in the output patch that succeeded. In the IPv6 case, a valid route was returned for first call, but we could not find a valid source address at the time since the source addresses were not set on the association yet. Thus resulted in a hung connection. The solution is to set the source addresses on the association prior to adding peers.

2009-09-04sctp: Get rid of an extra routing lookup when adding a transport.Vlad Yasevich
We used to perform 2 routing lookups for a new transport: one just for path mtu detection, and one to actually route to destination and path mtu update when sending a packet. There is no point in doing both of them, especially since the first one just for path mtu doesn't take into account source address and sometimes gives the wrong route, causing path mtu updates anyway. We now do just the one call to do both route to destination and get path mtu updates. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com>

We had a bug that we never stored the user-defined value for MAXSEG when setting the value on an association. Thus future PMTU events ended up re-writing the frag point and increasing it past user limit. Additionally, when setting the option on the socket/endpoint, we effect all current associations, which is against spec. Now, we store the user 'maxseg' value along with the computed 'frag_point'. We inherit 'maxseg' from the socket at association creation and use it as an upper limit for 'frag_point' when its set. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com>
2009-09-04sctp: drop a_rwnd to 0 when receive buffer overflows.Vlad Yasevich
SCTP has a problem that when small chunks are used, it is possible to exhaust the receiver buffer without fully closing receive window. This happens due to all overhead that we have account for with small messages. To fix this, when receive buffer is exceeded, we'll drop the window to 0 and save the 'drop' portion. When application starts reading data and freeing up recevie buffer space, we'll wait until we've reached the 'drop' window and then add back this 'drop' one mtu at a time. This worked well in testing and under stress produced rather even recovery. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com>

2008-10-08sctp: Rework the tsn map to use generic bitmap.Vlad Yasevich
The tsn map currently use is 4K large and is stuck inside the sctp_association structure making memory references REALLY expensive. What we really need is at most 4K worth of bits so the biggest map we would have is 512 bytes. Also, the map is only really usefull when we have gaps to store and report. As such, starting with minimal map of say 32 TSNs (bits) should be enough for normal low-loss operations. We can grow the map by some multiple of 32 along with some extra room any time we receive the TSN which would put us outside of the map boundry. As we close gaps, we can shift the map to rebase it on the latest TSN we've seen. This saves 4088 bytes per association just in the map alone along savings from the now unnecessary structure members.

When T1-Init timer is expires, OOPS happen while we try to choose a different init transport. The solution is to only clean up the non-active transports, i.e the ones that the peer added. However, that introduces a problem with sctp_connectx(), because we don't mark the proper state for the transports provided by the user. So, we'll simply mark user-provided transports as ACTIVE.

2008-06-19sctp: Follow security requirement of responding with 1 packetVlad Yasevich
RFC 4960, Section 11.4. Protection of Non-SCTP-Capable Hosts When an SCTP stack receives a packet containing multiple control or DATA chunks and the processing of the packet requires the sending of multiple chunks in response, the sender of the response chunk(s) MUST NOT send more than one packet. If bundling is supported, multiple response chunks that fit into a single packet MAY be bundled together into one single response packet. If bundling is not supported, then the sender MUST NOT send more than one response chunk and MUST discard all other responses. Note that this rule does NOT apply to a SACK chunk, since a SACK chunk is, in itself, a response to DATA and a SACK does not require a response of more DATA. We implement this by not servicing our outqueue until we reach the end of the packet. This enables maximum bundling. We also identify 'response' chunks and make sure that we only send 1 packet when sending such chunks. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Only set changeover_active, when there is a true changeover event, i.e. we had a primary path and we are changing to another transport.

2008-04-13[SCTP]: "list_for_each()" -> "list_for_each_entry()" where appropriate.Robert P. J. Day
Replacing (almost) all invocations of list_for_each() with list_for_each_entry() tightens up the code and allows for the deletion of numerous list iterator variables that are no longer necessary.
