* udp: fix a race in encap_rcv handlingEric Dumazet2011-11-021-3/+5
| | | | | | | | | | udp_queue_rcv_skb() has a possible race in encap_rcv handling, since this pointer can be changed anytime. We should use ACCESS_ONCE() to close the race. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* net: make the tcp and udp file_operations for the /proc stuff constArjan van de Ven2011-11-013-23/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | the tcp and udp code creates a set of struct file_operations at runtime while it can also be done at compile time, with the added benefit of then having these file operations be const. the trickiest part was to get the "THIS_MODULE" reference right; the naive method of declaring a struct in the place of registration would not work for this reason.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is a long standing bug in linux tcp stack, about ACK messages sent on behalf of TIME_WAIT sockets. In the IP header of the ACK message, we choose to reflect TOS field of incoming message, and this might break some setups. Example of things that were broken : - Routing using TOS as a selector - Firewalls - Trafic classification / shaping We now remember in timewait structure the inet tos field and use it in ACK generation, and route lookup. Notes : - We still reflect incoming TOS in RST messages. - We could extend MuraliRaja Muniraju patch to report TOS value in netlink messages for TIME_WAIT sockets. - A patch is needed for IPv6 Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* | net: more accurate skb truesizeEric Dumazet2011-10-132-10/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | skb truesize currently accounts for sk_buff struct and part of skb head. kmalloc() roundings are also ignored. Considering that skb_shared_info is larger than sk_buff, its time to take it into account for better memory accounting. This patch introduces SKB_TRUESIZE(X) macro to centralize various assumptions into a single place. At skb alloc phase, we put skb_shared_info struct at the exact end of skb head, to allow a better use of memory (lowering number of reallocations), since kmalloc() gives us power-of-two memory blocks. Unless SLUB/SLUB debug is active, both skb->head and skb_shared_info are aligned to cache lines, as before. Note: This patch might trigger performance regressions because of misconfigured protocol stacks, hitting per socket or global memory limits that were previously not reached. But its a necessary step for a more accurate memory accounting.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | lost_skb_hint is used by tcp_mark_head_lost() to mark the first unhandled skb. lost_cnt_hint is the number of packets or sacked packets before the lost_skb_hint; When shifting a skb that is before the lost_skb_hint, if tcp_is_fack() is ture, the skb has already been counted in the lost_cnt_hint; if tcp_is_fack() is false, tcp_sacktag_one() will increase the lost_cnt_hint. So tcp_shifted_skb() does not need to adjust the lost_cnt_hint by itself. When shifting a skb that is equal to lost_skb_hint, the shifted packets will not be counted by tcp_mark_head_lost(). So tcp_shifted_skb() should adjust the lost_cnt_hint even tcp_is_fack(tp) is true. Signed-off-by: Zheng Yan <zheng.z.yan@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While playing with a new ADSL box at home, I discovered that ECN blackhole can trigger suboptimal quickack mode on linux : We send one ACK for each incoming data frame, without any delay and eventual piggyback. This is because TCP_ECN_check_ce() considers that if no ECT is seen on a segment, this is because this segment was a retransmit. Refine this heuristic and apply it only if we seen ECT in a previous segment, to detect ECN blackhole at IP level.

We allocate memory for 'skb' with alloc_skb() annd then call nlh = NLMSG_PUT(skb, 0, 0, IPQM_PACKET, size - sizeof(*nlh)); NLMSG_PUT is a macro NLMSG_PUT(skb, pid, seq, type, len) \ NLMSG_NEW(skb, pid, seq, type, len, 0) that expands to NLMSG_NEW, which is also a macro which expands to: NLMSG_NEW(skb, pid, seq, type, len, flags) \ ({ if (unlikely(skb_tailroom(skb) < (int)NLMSG_SPACE(len))) \ goto nlmsg_failure; \ __nlmsg_put(skb, pid, seq, type, len, flags); }) If we take the true branch of the 'if' statement and 'goto nlmsg_failure', then we'll, at that point, return from ipq_build_packet_message() without having assigned 'skb' to anything and we'll leak the memory we allocated for it when it goes out of scope. Fix this by placing a 'kfree(skb)' at 'nlmsg_failure'. I admit that I do not know how likely this to actually happen or even if there's something that guarantees that it will never happen - I'm not that familiar with this code, but if that is so, I've not been able to spot it.

| |/ / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | "Possible SYN flooding on port xxxx " messages can fill logs on servers. Change logic to log the message only once per listener, and add two new SNMP counters to track : TCPReqQFullDoCookies : number of times a SYNCOOKIE was replied to client TCPReqQFullDrop : number of times a SYN request was dropped because syncookies were not enabled.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | tcp_md5sig_pool is currently an 'array' (a percpu object) of pointers to struct tcp_md5sig_pool. Only the pointers are NUMA aware, but objects themselves are all allocated on a single node. Remove this extra indirection to get proper percpu memory (NUMA aware) and make code simpler.

* | | Proportional Rate Reduction for TCP.Nandita Dukkipati2011-08-242-7/+58
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch implements Proportional Rate Reduction (PRR) for TCP. PRR is an algorithm that determines TCP's sending rate in fast recovery. PRR avoids excessive window reductions and aims for the actual congestion window size at the end of recovery to be as close as possible to the window determined by the congestion control algorithm. PRR also improves accuracy of the amount of data sent during loss recovery. The patch implements the recommended flavor of PRR called PRR-SSRB (Proportional rate reduction with slow start reduction bound) and replaces the existing rate halving algorithm. PRR improves upon the existing Linux fast recovery under a number of conditions including: 1) burst losses where the losses implicitly reduce the amount of outstanding data (pipe) below the ssthresh value selected by the congestion control algorithm and, 2) losses near the end of short flows where application runs out of data to send. As an example, with the existing rate halving implementation a single loss event can cause a connection carrying short Web transactions to go into the slow start mode after the recovery. This is because during recovery Linux pulls the congestion window down to packets_in_flight+1 on every ACK. A short Web response often runs out of new data to send and its pipe reduces to zero by the end of recovery when all its packets are drained from the network. Subsequent HTTP responses using the same connection will have to slow start to raise cwnd to ssthresh. PRR on the other hand aims for the cwnd to be as close as possible to ssthresh by the end of recovery.

Now rt_route_iif has such role, it was fl.iif in 2.6.38, so better to change the checks at some places to save CPU cycles and to restore 2.6.38 semantics. compare_keys: - input routes: only rt_route_iif matters, rt_iif is same - output routes: only rt_oif matters, rt_iif is not used for matching in __ip_route_output_key - now we are back to 2.6.38 state ip_route_input_common: - matching rt_route_iif implies input route - compared to 2.6.38 we eliminated one rth->fl.oif check because it was not needed even for 2.6.38 compare_hash_inputs: Only the change here is not an optimization, it has effect only for output routes. I assume I'm restoring the original intention to ignore oif, it was using fl.iif - now we are back to 2.6.38 state Signed-off-by: Julian Anastasov <ja@ssi.bg> Signed-off-by: David S.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Using a gcc 4.4.3, warnings are emitted for a possibly uninitialized use of ecn_ok. This can happen if cookie_check_timestamp() returns due to not having seen a timestamp. Defaulting to ecn off seems like a reasonable thing to do in this case, so initialized ecn_ok to false.
