      tipc: add test for Nagle algorithm effectiveness · 0a3e060f
      Tuong Lien authored
      When streaming in Nagle mode, we try to bundle small messages from user
      as many as possible if there is one outstanding buffer, i.e. not ACK-ed
      by the receiving side, which helps boost up the overall throughput. So,
      the algorithm's effectiveness really depends on when Nagle ACK comes or
      what the specific network latency (RTT) is, compared to the user's
      message sending rate.
      
      In a bad case, the user's sending rate is low or the network latency is
      small, there will not be many bundles, so making a Nagle ACK or waiting
      for it is not meaningful.
      For example: a user sends its messages every 100ms and the RTT is 50ms,
      then for each messages, we require one Nagle ACK but then there is only
      one user message sent without any bundles.
      
      In a better case, even if we have a few bundles (e.g. the RTT = 300ms),
      but now the user sends messages in medium size, then there will not be
      any difference at all, that says 3 x 1000-byte data messages if bundled
      will still result in 3 bundles with MTU = 1500.
      
      When Nagle is ineffective, the delay in user message sending is clearly
      wasted instead of sending directly.
      
      Besides, adding Nagle ACKs will consume some processor load on both the
      sending and receiving sides.
      
      This commit adds a test on the effectiveness of the Nagle algorithm for
      an individual connection in the network on which it actually runs.
      Particularly, upon receipt of a Nagle ACK we will compare the number of
      bundles in the backlog queue to the number of user messages which would
      be sent directly without Nagle. If the ratio is good (e.g. >= 2), Nagle
      mode will be kept for further message sending. Otherwise, we will leave
      Nagle and put a 'penalty' on the connection, so it will have to spend
      more 'one-way' messages before being able to re-enter Nagle.
      
      In addition, the 'ack-required' bit is only set when really needed that
      the number of Nagle ACKs will be reduced during Nagle mode.
      
      Testing with benchmark showed that with the patch, there was not much
      difference in throughput for small messages since the tool continuously
      sends messages without a break, so Nagle would still take in effect.

      tipc: add support for broadcast rcv stats dumping · 03b6fefd
      Tuong Lien authored
      This commit enables dumping the statistics of a broadcast-receiver link
      like the traditional 'broadcast-link' one (which is for broadcast-
      sender). The link dumping can be triggered via netlink (e.g. the
      iproute2/tipc tool) by the link flag - 'TIPC_NLA_LINK_BROADCAST' as the
      indicator.
      
      The name of a broadcast-receiver link of a specific peer will be in the
      format: 'broadcast-link:<peer-id>'.
      
      For example:
      
      Link <broadcast-link:1001002>
        Window:50 packets
        RX packets:7841 fragments:2408/440 bundles:0/0
        TX packets:0 fragments:0/0 bundles:0/0
        RX naks:0 defs:124 dups:0
        TX naks:21 acks:0 retrans:0
        Congestion link:0  Send queue max:0 avg:0
      
      In addition, the broadcast-receiver link statistics can be reset in the
      usual way via netlink by specifying that link name in command.
      
      Note: the 'tipc_link_name_ext()' is removed because the link name can
      now be retrieved simply via the 'l->name'.

      tipc: enable broadcast retrans via unicast · a91d55d1
      Tuong Lien authored
      In some environment, broadcast traffic is suppressed at high rate (i.e.
      a kind of bandwidth limit setting). When it is applied, TIPC broadcast
      can still run successfully. However, when it comes to a high load, some
      packets will be dropped first and TIPC tries to retransmit them but the
      packet retransmission is intentionally broadcast too, so making things
      worse and not helpful at all.
      
      This commit enables the broadcast retransmission via unicast which only
      retransmits packets to the specific peer that has really reported a gap
      i.e. not broadcasting to all nodes in the cluster, so will prevent from
      being suppressed, and also reduce some overheads on the other peers due
      to duplicates, finally improve the overall TIPC broadcast performance.
      
      Note: the functionality can be turned on/off via the sysctl file:
      
      echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/tipc/bc_retruni
      echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/tipc/bc_retruni
      
      Default is '0', i.e. the broadcast retransmission still works as usual.

      tipc: introduce Gap ACK blocks for broadcast link · d7626b5a
      Tuong Lien authored
      As achieved through commit 9195948f ("tipc: improve TIPC throughput
      by Gap ACK blocks"), we apply the same mechanism for the broadcast link
      as well. The 'Gap ACK blocks' data field in a 'PROTOCOL/STATE_MSG' will
      consist of two parts built for both the broadcast and unicast types:
      
       31                       16 15                        0
      +-------------+-------------+-------------+-------------+
      |  bgack_cnt  |  ugack_cnt  |            len            |
      +-------------+-------------+-------------+-------------+  -
      |            gap            |            ack            |   |
      +-------------+-------------+-------------+-------------+    > bc gacks
      :                           :                           :   |
      +-------------+-------------+-------------+-------------+  -
      |            gap            |            ack            |   |
      +-------------+-------------+-------------+-------------+    > uc gacks
      :                           :                           :   |
      +-------------+-------------+-------------+-------------+  -
      
      which is "automatically" backward-compatible.
      
      We also increase the max number of Gap ACK blocks to 128, allowing upto
      64 blocks per type (total buffer size = 516 bytes).
      
      Besides, the 'tipc_link_advance_transmq()' function is refactored which
      is applicable for both the unicast and broadcast cases now, so some old
      functions can be removed and the code is optimized.
      
      With the patch, TIPC broadcast is more robust regardless of packet loss
      or disorder, latency, ... in the underlying network. Its performance is
      boost up significantly.
      For example, experiment with a 5% packet loss rate results:
      
      $ time tipc-pipe --mc --rdm --data_size 123 --data_num 1500000
      real    0m 42.46s
      user    0m 1.16s
      sys     0m 17.67s
      
      Without the patch:
      
      $ time tipc-pipe --mc --rdm --data_size 123 --data_num 1500000
      real    8m 27.94s
      user    0m 0.55s
      sys     0m 2.38s

      tcp: tcp_v4_err() icmp skb is named icmp_skb · 23917494

      I missed the fact that tcp_v4_err() differs from tcp_v6_err().
      
      After commit 4d1a2d9e ("Rename skb to icmp_skb in tcp_v4_err()")
      the skb argument has been renamed to icmp_skb only in one function.
      
      I will in a future patch reconciliate these functions to avoid
      this kind of confusion.

      The issue was reported by syzbot. When the function br_mrp_parse was
      called with a valid net_bridge_port, the net_bridge was an invalid
      pointer. Therefore the check br->stp_enabled could pass/fail
      depending where it was pointing in memory.
      The fix consists of setting the net_bridge pointer if the port is a
      valid pointer.

      ipv4: potential underflow in compat_ip_setsockopt() · 6a1015b0
      Dan Carpenter authored
      The value of "n" is capped at 0x1ffffff but it checked for negative
      values.  I don't think this causes a problem but I'm not certain and
      it's harmless to prevent it.

      mvneta: MVNETA_SKB_HEADROOM set last 3 bits to zero · ca23cb0b
      Sven Auhagen authored
      For XDP the MVNETA_SKB_HEADROOM is used as an offset for
      the received data.
      The MVNETA manual states that the last 3 bits assumed to be 0.
      
      This is currently the case but lets make it explicit in the definition
      to prevent future problems.

      ethtool: propagate get_coalesce return value · 31610711
      Heiner Kallweit authored
      get_coalesce returns 0 or ERRNO, but the return value isn't checked.
      The returned coalesce data may be invalid if an ERRNO is set,
      therefore better check and propagate the return value.

      Bartosz Golaszewski says:
      
      ====================
      net: provide a devres variant of register_netdev()
      
      Using devres helpers allows to shrink the probing code, avoid memory leaks in
      error paths make sure the order in which resources are freed is the exact
      opposite of their allocation. This series proposes to add a devres variant
      of register_netdev() that will only work with net_device structures whose
      memory is also managed.
      
      First we add the missing documentation entry for the only other networking
      devres helper: devm_alloc_etherdev().
      
      Next we move devm_alloc_etherdev() into a separate source file.
      
      We then use a proxy structure in devm_alloc_etherdev() to improve readability.
      
      Last: we implement devm_register_netdev() and use it in mtk-eth-mac driver.
      
      v1 -> v2:
      - rebase on top of net-next after driver rename, no functional changes
