Yuchung Cheng says: ==================== improving TCP behavior on host congestion This patch set aims to improve how TCP handle local qdisc congestion by simplifying the previous implementation. Previously when an skb fails to (re)transmit due to local qdisc congestion or other resource issue, TCP refrains from setting the skb timestamp or the recovery starting time. This design makes determining when to abort a stalling socket more complicated, as the timestamps of these tranmission attempts were missing. The stack needs to sort of infer when the original attempt happens. A by-product is a socket may disregard the system timeout limit (i.e. sysctl net.ipv4.tcp_retries2 or USER_TIMEOUT option), and continue to retry until the transmission is successful. In data-center environment when TCP RTO is small, this could cause the socket to retry frequently for long during qdisc congestion. The solution is to first unconditionally timestamp skb and recovery attempt. Then retry more conservatively (twice a second) on local qdisc congestion but abort the sockets according to the system limit. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Previously when the sender fails to send (original) data packet or window probes due to congestion in the local host (e.g. throttling in qdisc), it'll retry within an RTO or two up to 500ms. In low-RTT networks such as data-centers, RTO is often far below the default minimum 200ms. Then local host congestion could trigger a retry storm pouring gas to the fire. Worse yet, the probe counter (icsk_probes_out) is not properly updated so the aggressive retry may exceed the system limit (15 rounds) until the packet finally slips through. On such rare events, it's wise to retry more conservatively (500ms) and update the stats properly to reflect these incidents and follow the system limit. Note that this is consistent with the behaviors when a keep-alive probe or RTO retry is dropped due to local congestion.

Previously we use the next unsent skb's timestamp to determine when to abort a socket stalling on window probes. This no longer works as skb timestamp reflects the last instead of the first transmission. Instead we can estimate how long the socket has been stalling with the probe count and the exponential backoff behavior.

This patch addresses a corner issue on timeout behavior of a passive Fast Open socket. A passive Fast Open server may write and close the socket when it is re-trying SYN-ACK to complete the handshake. After the handshake is completely, the server does not properly stamp the recovery start time (tp->retrans_stamp is 0), and the socket may abort immediately on the very first FIN timeout, instead of retying until it passes the system or user specified limit.

Previously TCP socket's retrans_stamp is not set if the retransmission has failed to send. As a result if a socket is experiencing local issues to retransmit packets, determining when to abort a socket is complicated w/o knowning the starting time of the recovery since retrans_stamp may remain zero. This complication causes sub-optimal behavior that TCP may use the latest, instead of the first, retransmission time to compute the elapsed time of a stalling connection due to local issues. Then TCP may disrecard TCP retries settings and keep retrying until it finally succeed: not a good idea when the local host is already strained. The simple fix is to always timestamp the start of a recovery. It's worth noting that retrans_stamp is also used to compare echo timestamp values to detect spurious recovery. This patch does not break that because retrans_stamp is still later than when the original packet was sent.

Previously TCP skbs are not always timestamped if the transmission failed due to memory or other local issues. This makes deciding when to abort a socket tricky and complicated because the first unacknowledged skb's timestamp may be 0 on TCP timeout. The straight-forward fix is to always timestamp skb on every transmission attempt. Also every skb retransmission needs to be flagged properly to avoid RTT under-estimation. This can happen upon receiving an ACK for the original packet and the a previous (spurious) retransmission has failed. It's worth noting that this reverts to the old time-stamping style before commit 8c72c65b ("tcp: update skb->skb_mstamp more carefully") which addresses a problem in computing the elapsed time of a stalled window-probing socket. The problem will be addressed differently in the next patches with a simpler approach.

This introduces a new generic SOL_SOCKET-level socket option called SO_BINDTOIFINDEX. It behaves similar to SO_BINDTODEVICE, but takes a network interface index as argument, rather than the network interface name. User-space often refers to network-interfaces via their index, but has to temporarily resolve it to a name for a call into SO_BINDTODEVICE. This might pose problems when the network-device is renamed asynchronously by other parts of the system. When this happens, the SO_BINDTODEVICE might either fail, or worse, it might bind to the wrong device. In most cases user-space only ever operates on devices which they either manage themselves, or otherwise have a guarantee that the device name will not change (e.g., devices that are UP cannot be renamed). However, particularly in libraries this guarantee is non-obvious and it would be nice if that race-condition would simply not exist. It would make it easier for those libraries to operate even in situations where the device-name might change under the hood. A real use-case that we recently hit is trying to start the network stack early in the initrd but make it survive into the real system. Existing distributions rename network-interfaces during the transition from initrd into the real system. This, obviously, cannot affect devices that are up and running (unless you also consider moving them between network-namespaces). However, the network manager now has to make sure its management engine for dormant devices will not run in parallel to these renames. Particularly, when you offload operations like DHCP into separate processes, these might setup their sockets early, and thus have to resolve the device-name possibly running into this race-condition. By avoiding a call to resolve the device-name, we no longer depend on the name and can run network setup of dormant devices in parallel to the transition off the initrd. The SO_BINDTOIFINDEX ioctl plugs this race.

This fixes recvmsg() to be able to peek across multiple tls records. Without this patch, the tls's selftests test case 'recv_peek_large_buf_mult_recs' fails. Each tls receive context now maintains a 'rx_list' to retain incoming skb carrying tls records. If a tls record needs to be retained e.g. for peek case or for the case when the buffer passed to recvmsg() has a length smaller than decrypted record length, then it is added to 'rx_list'. Additionally, records are added in 'rx_list' if the crypto operation runs in async mode. The records are dequeued from 'rx_list' after the decrypted data is consumed by copying into the buffer passed to recvmsg(). In case, the MSG_PEEK flag is used in recvmsg(), then records are not consumed or removed from the 'rx_list'. Signed-off-by: Vakul Garg <vakul.garg@nxp.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Function sk_msg_clone has been modified to merge the data from source sg entry to destination sg entry if the cloned data resides in same page and is contiguous to the end entry of destination sk_msg. This improves kernel tls throughput to the tune of 10%. When the user space tls application calls sendmsg() with MSG_MORE, it leads to calling sk_msg_clone() with new data being cloned placed continuous to previously cloned data. Without this optimization, a new SG entry in the destination sk_msg i.e. rec->msg_plaintext in tls_clone_plaintext_msg() gets used. This leads to exhaustion of sg entries in rec->msg_plaintext even before a full 16K of allowable record data is accumulated. Hence we lose oppurtunity to encrypt and send a full 16K record. With this patch, the kernel tls can accumulate full 16K of record data irrespective of the size of data passed in sendmsg() with MSG_MORE.
