* tcp: initialize passive-side sk_pacing_rate after 3WHSNeal Cardwell2013-10-211-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For passive TCP connections, upon receiving the ACK that completes the 3WHS, make sure we set our pacing rate after we get our first RTT sample. On passive TCP connections, when we receive the ACK completing the 3WHS we do not take an RTT sample in tcp_ack(), but rather in tcp_synack_rtt_meas(). So upon receiving the ACK that completes the 3WHS, tcp_ack() leaves sk_pacing_rate at its initial value. Originally the initial sk_pacing_rate value was 0, so passive-side connections defaulted to sysctl_tcp_min_tso_segs (2 segs) in skbuffs made in the first RTT. With a default initial cwnd of 10 packets, this happened to be correct for RTTs 5ms or bigger, so it was hard to see problems in WAN or emulated WAN testing. Since 7eec4174ff ("pkt_sched: fq: fix non TCP flows pacing"), the initial sk_pacing_rate is 0xffffffff. So after that change, passive TCP connections were keeping this value (and using large numbers of segments per skbuff) until receiving an ACK for data.

* tcp: remove the sk_can_gso() check from tcp_set_skb_tso_segs()Eric Dumazet2013-10-171-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | sk_can_gso() should only be used as a hint in tcp_sendmsg() to build GSO packets in the first place. (As a performance hint) Once we have GSO packets in write queue, we can not decide they are no longer GSO only because flow now uses a route which doesn't handle TSO/GSO. Core networking stack handles the case very well for us, all we need is keeping track of packet counts in MSS terms, regardless of segmentation done later (in GSO or hardware) Right now, if tcp_fragment() splits a GSO packet in two parts, @left and @right, and route changed through a non GSO device, both @left and @right have pcount set to 1, which is wrong, and leads to incorrect packet_count tracking.

* tcp: must unclone packets before mangling themEric Dumazet2013-10-171-3/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | TCP stack should make sure it owns skbs before mangling them. We had various crashes using bnx2x, and it turned out gso_size was cleared right before bnx2x driver was populating TC descriptor of the _previous_ packet send. TCP stack can sometime retransmit packets that are still in Qdisc. Of course we could make bnx2x driver more robust (using ACCESS_ONCE(shinfo->gso_size) for example), but the bug is TCP stack. We have identified two points where skb_unclone() was needed. This patch adds a WARN_ON_ONCE() to warn us if we missed another fix of this kind. Kudos to Neal for finding the root cause of this bug.

* tcp: fix incorrect ca_state in tail loss probeYuchung Cheng2013-10-171-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On receiving an ACK that covers the loss probe sequence, TLP immediately sets the congestion state to Open, even though some packets are not recovered and retransmisssion are on the way. The later ACks may trigger a WARN_ON check in step D of tcp_fastretrans_alert(), e.g., https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=989251 The fix is to follow the similar procedure in recovery by calling tcp_try_keep_open(). The sender switches to Open state if no packets are retransmissted. Otherwise it goes to Disorder and let subsequent ACKs move the state to Recovery or Open.

* vti: get rid of nf mark rule in preroutingChristophe Gouault2013-10-111-3/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes and improves the use of vti interfaces (while lightly changing the way of configuring them). Currently: - it is necessary to identify and mark inbound IPsec packets destined to each vti interface, via netfilter rules in the mangle table at prerouting hook. - the vti module cannot retrieve the right tunnel in input since commit b9959fd3: vti tunnels all have an i_key, but the tunnel lookup is done with flag TUNNEL_NO_KEY, so there no chance to retrieve them. - the i_key is used by the outbound processing as a mark to lookup for the right SP and SA bundle. This patch uses the o_key to store the vti mark (instead of i_key) and enables: - to avoid the need for previously marking the inbound skbuffs via a netfilter rule. - to properly retrieve the right tunnel in input, only based on the IPsec packet outer addresses. - to properly perform an inbound policy check (using the tunnel o_key as a mark). - to properly perform an outbound SPD and SAD lookup (using the tunnel o_key as a mark). - to keep the current mark of the skbuff. The skbuff mark is neither used nor changed by the vti interface. Only the vti interface o_key is used. SAs have a wildcard mark. SPs have a mark equal to the vti interface o_key. The vti interface must be created as follows (i_key = 0, o_key = mark): ip link add vti1 mode vti local 1.1.1.1 remote 2.2.2.2 okey 1 The SPs attached to vti1 must be created as follows (mark = vti1 o_key): ip xfrm policy add dir out mark 1 tmpl src 1.1.1.1 dst 2.2.2.2 \ proto esp mode tunnel ip xfrm policy add dir in mark 1 tmpl src 2.2.2.2 dst 1.1.1.1 \ proto esp mode tunnel The SAs are created with the default wildcard mark. There is no distinction between global vs. vti SAs. Just their addresses will possibly link them to a vti interface: ip xfrm state add src 1.1.1.1 dst 2.2.2.2 proto esp spi 1000 mode tunnel \ enc "cbc(aes)" "azertyuiopqsdfgh" ip xfrm state add src 2.2.2.2 dst 1.1.1.1 proto esp spi 2000 mode tunnel \ enc "cbc(aes)" "sqbdhgqsdjqjsdfh" To avoid matching "global" (not vti) SPs in vti interfaces, global SPs should no use the default wildcard mark, but explicitly match mark 0. To avoid a double SPD lookup in input and output (in global and vti SPDs), the NOPOLICY and NOXFRM options should be set on the vti interfaces: echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/vti1/disable_policy echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/vti1/disable_xfrm The outgoing traffic is steered to vti1 by a route via the vti interface: ip route add 192.168.0.0/16 dev vti1 The incoming IPsec traffic is steered to vti1 because its outer addresses match the vti1 tunnel configuration.

Fix this by using the right netlink attribute. 2) Policy lookups can not match the output interface on forwarding. Add the needed informations to the flow informations. 3) We update the pmtu when we receive a ICMPV6_DEST_UNREACH message on IPsec with ipv6. This is wrong and leads to strange fragmented packets, only ICMPV6_PKT_TOOBIG messages should update the pmtu. Fix this by removing the ICMPV6_DEST_UNREACH check from the IPsec protocol error handlers. 4) The legacy IPsec anti replay mechanism supports anti replay windows up to 32 packets. If a user requests for a bigger anti replay window, we use 32 packets but pretend that we use the requested window size. Fix from Fan Du. 5) If asynchronous events are enabled and replay_maxdiff is set to zero, we generate an async event for every received packet instead of checking whether a timeout occurred. Fix from Thomas Egerer. 6) Policies need a refcount when the state resolution timer is armed. Otherwise the timer can fire after the policy is deleted. 7) We might dreference a NULL pointer if the hold_queue is empty, add a check to avoid this. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Problem is this limit is either too big for low rates, or too small for high rates. Now TCP stack has rate estimation in sk->sk_pacing_rate, and TSO auto sizing, it can better control number of packets in Qdisc/device queues. New limit is two packets or at least 1 to 2 ms worth of packets. Low rates flows benefit from this patch by having even smaller number of packets in queues, allowing for faster recovery, better RTT estimations. High rates flows benefit from this patch by allowing more than 2 packets in flight as we had reports this was a limiting factor to reach line rate.

* tcp: properly increase rcv_ssthresh for ofo packetsEric Dumazet2013-09-061-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | TCP receive window handling is multi staged. A socket has a memory budget, static or dynamic, in sk_rcvbuf. Because we do not really know how this memory budget translates to a TCP window (payload), TCP announces a small initial window (about 20 MSS). When a packet is received, we increase TCP rcv_win depending on the payload/truesize ratio of this packet. Good citizen packets give a hint that it's reasonable to have rcv_win = sk_rcvbuf/2 This heuristic takes place in tcp_grow_window() Problem is : We currently call tcp_grow_window() only for in-order packets. This means that reorders or packet losses stop proper grow of rcv_win, and senders are unable to benefit from fast recovery, or proper reordering level detection. Really, a packet being stored in OFO queue is not a bad citizen. It should be part of the game as in-order packets. In our traces, we very often see sender is limited by linux small receive windows, even if linux hosts use autotuning (DRS) and should allow rcv_win to grow to ~3MB.

This mistakenly disables slow start after timeout (CA_Loss). Moreover cwnd won't grow if the state moves from Disorder to Open later in tcp_fastretrans_alert(). Therefore the correct logic should be to allow cwnd to grow as long as the data is received in order in Open, Loss, or even Disorder state.

Which were, to avoid SYN+ACK packets to enter the path, meant for the ACK packet from the client (from the 3WHS). Further there were a bug in ip6t_SYNPROXY.c, for matching SYN packets that didn't exclude the ACK flag. Go a step further with SYN packet/flag matching by excluding flags ACK+FIN+RST, in both IPv4 and IPv6 modules. The intented usage of SYNPROXY is as follows: (gracefully describing usage in commit) iptables -t raw -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 80 --syn -j NOTRACK iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 80 -m state UNTRACKED,INVALID \ -j SYNPROXY --sack-perm --timestamp --mss 1480 --wscale 7 --ecn echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_tcp_loose This does filter SYN flags early, for packets in the UNTRACKED state, but packets in the INVALID state with other TCP flags could still reach the module, thus this stricter flag matching is still needed.

However using it to seed the RTT estimator maybe disruptive because other components (e.g., pacing) require the smooth RTT to be obtained from actual connection. The solution is to use the higher cached RTT to set the first RTO conservatively like tcp_rtt_estimator(), but avoid seeding the other RTT estimator variables such as srtt. It is also a good idea to keep RTO conservative to obtain the first RTT sample, and the performance is insured by TCP loss probe if SYN RTT is available. To keep the seeding formula consistent across SYN RTT and cached RTT, the rttvar is twice the cached RTT instead of cached RTTVAR value. The reason is because cached variation may be too small (near min RTO) which defeats the purpose of being conservative on first RTO. However the metrics still keep the RTT variations as they might be useful for user applications (through ip).

One part of the problem is that tcp_tso_should_defer() uses an heuristic relying on upcoming ACKS instead of a timer, but more generally, having big TSO packets makes little sense for low rates, as it tends to create micro bursts on the network, and general consensus is to reduce the buffering amount. This patch introduces a per socket sk_pacing_rate, that approximates the current sending rate, and allows us to size the TSO packets so that we try to send one packet every ms. This field could be set by other transports. Patch has no impact for high speed flows, where having large TSO packets makes sense to reach line rate. For other flows, this helps better packet scheduling and ACK clocking. This patch increases performance of TCP flows in lossy environments. A new sysctl (tcp_min_tso_segs) is added, to specify the minimal size of a TSO packet (default being 2). A follow-up patch will provide a new packet scheduler (FQ), using sk_pacing_rate as an input to perform optional per flow pacing. This explains why we chose to set sk_pacing_rate to twice the current rate, allowing 'slow start' ramp up. sk_pacing_rate = 2 * cwnd * mss / srtt v2: Neal Cardwell reported a suspect deferring of last two segments on initial write of 10 MSS, I had to change tcp_tso_should_defer() to take into account tp->xmit_size_goal_segs Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: Neal Cardwell <ncardwell@google.com> Cc: Yuchung Cheng <ycheng@google.com> Cc: Van Jacobson <vanj@google.com> Cc: Tom Herbert <therbert@google.com> Acked-by: Yuchung Cheng <ycheng@google.com> Acked-by: Neal Cardwell <ncardwell@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

| * | netfilter: add SYNPROXY core/targetPatrick McHardy2013-08-283-0/+486

The code is split into two parts, the synproxy core with common functions and an address family specific target. The SYNPROXY receives the connection request from the client, responds with a SYN/ACK containing a SYN cookie and announcing a zero window and checks whether the final ACK from the client contains a valid cookie. It then establishes a connection to the original destination and, if successful, sends a window update to the client with the window size announced by the server. Support for timestamps, SACK, window scaling and MSS options can be statically configured as target parameters if the features of the server are known. If timestamps are used, the timestamp value sent back to the client in the SYN/ACK will be different from the real timestamp of the server. In order to now break PAWS, the timestamps are translated in the direction server->client.
