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.

Previously TCP only warns if its RTO timer fires and the retransmission queue is empty, but it'll cause null pointer reference later on. It's better to avoid such catastrophic failure and simply exit with a warning.

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.

A MAC address is not necessarily a unique identifier for a netdev. Drivers such as Linux bonds, for example, can apply the same MAC address to the upper layer device and all lower layer devices. NFP MAC offload for tunnel decap includes port verification for reprs but also supports the offload of non-repr MAC addresses by assigning 'global' indexes to these. This means that the FW will not verify the incoming port of a packet matching this destination MAC. Modify the MAC offload logic to assign global indexes based on MAC address instead of net device (as it currently does). Use this to allow multiple devices to share the same MAC. In other words, if a repr shares its MAC address with another device then give the offloaded MAC a global index rather than associate it with an ingress port. Track this so that changes can be reverted as MACs stop being shared. Implement this by removing the current list based assignment of global indexes and replacing it with an rhashtable that maps an offloaded MAC address to the number of devices sharing it, distributing global indexes based on this.

It is possible to receive a MAC address change notification without the net device being down (e.g. when an OvS bridge is assigned the same MAC as a port added to it). This means that an offloaded MAC address may not be removed if its device gets a new address. Maintain a record of the offloaded MAC addresses for each repr and netdev assigned a MAC offload index. Use this to delete the (now expired) MAC if a change of address event occurs. Only handle change address events if the device is already up - if not then the netdev up event will handle it.

NFP repr netdevs contain private data that can store per port information. In certain cases, the NFP driver offloads information from non-repr ports (e.g. tunnel ports). As the driver does not have control over non-repr netdevs, it cannot add/track private data directly to the netdev struct. Add infastructure to store private information on any non-repr netdev that is offloaded at a given time. This is used in a following patch to track offloaded MAC addresses for non-reprs and enable correct house keeping on address changes.

When a potential tunnel end point goes down then its MAC address should not be matchable on the NFP. Implement a delete message for offloaded MACs and call this on net device down. While at it, remove the actions on register and unregister netdev events. A MAC should only be offloaded if the device is up. Note that the netdev notifier will replay any notifications for UP devices on registration so NFP can still offload ports that exist before the driver is loaded. Similarly, devices need to go down before they can be unregistered so removal of offloaded MACs is only required on down events.

Potential MAC destination addresses for tunnel end-points are offloaded to firmware. This was done by building a list of such MACs and writing to firmware as blocks of addresses. Simplify this code by removing the list format and sending a new message for each offloaded MAC. This is in preparation for delete MAC messages. There will be one delete flag per message so we cannot assume that this applies to all addresses in a list.
