Jakub reported Data included in a Fastopen SYN that had to be retransmit would have to wait for an RTO if TX completions are slow, even with prior fix. This is because tcp_rcv_fastopen_synack() does not use standard rtx logic, meaning TSQ handler exits early in tcp_tsq_write() because tp->lost_out == tp->retrans_out Lets make tcp_rcv_fastopen_synack() use standard rtx logic, by using tcp_mark_skb_lost() on the skb thats needs to be sent again. Not this raised a warning in tcp_fastretrans_alert() during my tests since we consider the data not being aknowledged by the receiver does not mean packet was lost on the network.

Jakub and Neil reported an increase of RTO timers whenever TX completions are delayed a bit more (by increasing NIC TX coalescing parameters) Main issue is that TCP stack has a logic preventing a packet being retransmit if the prior clone has not yet been orphaned or freed. This logic came with commit 1f3279ae ("tcp: avoid retransmits of TCP packets hanging in host queues") Thankfully, in the case skb_still_in_host_queue() detects the initial clone is still in flight, it can use TSQ logic that will eventually retry later, at the moment the clone is freed or orphaned.

Ido Schimmel says: ==================== mlxsw: Implement sampling using mirroring So far, sampling was implemented using a dedicated sampling mechanism that is available on all Spectrum ASICs. Spectrum-2 and later ASICs support sampling by mirroring packets to the CPU port with probability. This method has a couple of advantages compared to the legacy method: * Extra metadata per-packet: Egress port, egress traffic class, traffic class occupancy and end-to-end latency * Ability to sample packets on egress / per-flow as opposed to only ingress This series should not result in any user-visible changes and its aim is to convert Spectrum-2 and later ASICs to perform sampling by mirroring to the CPU port with probability. Future submissions will expose the additional metadata and enable sampling using more triggers (e.g., egress). Series overview: Patches #1-#3 extend the SPAN (mirroring) module to accept new parameters required for sampling. See individual commit messages for detailed explanation. Patch #4-#5 split sampling support between Spectrum-1 and later ASIC while still using the legacy method for all ASIC generations. Patch #6 converts Spectrum-2 and later ASICs to perform sampling by mirroring to the CPU port with probability. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

However, Spectrum-2 and later ASICs support more sophisticated sampling by mirroring packets to the CPU. As a preparation for more advanced sampling configurations, split the trap configuration used for sampled packets between Spectrum-1 and later ASICs. This is needed since packets that are mirrored to the CPU are trapped via a different trap identifier compared to packets that are sampled using the dedicated sampling mechanism.

When packets are mirrored to the CPU, the trap identifier with which the packets are trapped is determined according to the session identifier of the SPAN agent performing the mirroring. Packets that are trapped for the same logical reason (e.g., buffer drops) should use the same session identifier. Currently, a single session is implicitly supported (identifier 0) and is used for packets that are mirrored to the CPU due to buffer drops (e.g., early drop). Subsequent patches are going to mirror packets to the CPU due to sampling, which will require a different session identifier. Prepare for that by making the session identifier an attribute of the SPAN agent. Signed-off-by: Ido Schimmel <idosch@nvidia.com> Reviewed-by: Jiri Pirko <jiri@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Petr Machata says: ==================== nexthop: Resilient next-hop groups At this moment, there is only one type of next-hop group: an mpath group. Mpath groups implement the hash-threshold algorithm, described in RFC 2992[1]. To select a next hop, hash-threshold algorithm first assigns a range of hashes to each next hop in the group, and then selects the next hop by comparing the SKB hash with the individual ranges. When a next hop is removed from the group, the ranges are recomputed, which leads to reassignment of parts of hash space from one next hop to another. RFC 2992 illustrates it thus: +-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+ | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | +-------+-+-----+---+---+-----+-+-------+ | 1 | 2 | 4 | 5 | +---------+---------+---------+---------+ Before and after deletion of next hop 3 under the hash-threshold algorithm. Note how next hop 2 gave up part of the hash space in favor of next hop 1, and 4 in favor of 5. While there will usually be some overlap between the previous and the new distribution, some traffic flows change the next hop that they resolve to. If a multipath group is used for load-balancing between multiple servers, this hash space reassignment causes an issue that packets from a single flow suddenly end up arriving at a server that does not expect them, which may lead to TCP reset. If a multipath group is used for load-balancing among available paths to the same server, the issue is that different latencies and reordering along the way causes the packets to arrive in the wrong order. Resilient hashing is a technique to address the above problem. Resilient next-hop group has another layer of indirection between the group itself and its constituent next hops: a hash table. The selection algorithm uses a straightforward modulo operation on the SKB hash to choose a hash table bucket, then reads the next hop that this bucket contains, and forwards traffic there. This indirection brings an important feature. In the hash-threshold algorithm, the range of hashes associated with a next hop must be continuous. With a hash table, mapping between the hash table buckets and the individual next hops is arbitrary. Therefore when a next hop is deleted the buckets that held it are simply reassigned to other next hops: +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ |1|1|1|1|2|2|2|2|3|3|3|3|4|4|4|4|5|5|5|5| +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ v v v v +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ |1|1|1|1|2|2|2|2|1|2|4|5|4|4|4|4|5|5|5|5| +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Before and after deletion of next hop 3 under the resilient hashing algorithm. When weights of next hops in a group are altered, it may be possible to choose a subset of buckets that are currently not used for forwarding traffic, and use those to satisfy the new next-hop distribution demands, keeping the "busy" buckets intact. This way, established flows are ideally kept being forwarded to the same endpoints through the same paths as before the next-hop group change. This patch set adds the implementation of resilient next-hop groups. In a nutshell, the algorithm works as follows. Each next hop has a number of buckets that it wants to have, according to its weight and the number of buckets in the hash table. In case of an event that might cause bucket allocation change, the numbers for individual next hops are updated, similarly to how ranges are updated for mpath group next hops. Following that, a new "upkeep" algorithm runs, and for idle buckets that belong to a next hop that is currently occupying more buckets than it wants (it is "overweight"), it migrates the buckets to one of the next hops that has fewer buckets than it wants (it is "underweight"). If, after this, there are still underweight next hops, another upkeep run is scheduled to a future time. Chances are there are not enough "idle" buckets to satisfy the new demands. The algorithm has knobs to select both what it means for a bucket to be idle, and for whether and when to forcefully migrate buckets if there keeps being an insufficient number of idle ones. To illustrate the usage, consider the following commands: # ip nexthop add id 1 via 192.0.2.2 dev dummy1 # ip nexthop add id 2 via 192.0.2.3 dev dummy1 # ip nexthop add id 10 group 1/2 type resilient \ buckets 8 idle_timer 60 unbalanced_timer 300 The last command creates a resilient next-hop group. It will have 8 buckets, each bucket will be considered idle when no traffic hits it for at least 60 seconds, and if the table remains out of balance for 300 seconds, it will be forcefully brought into balance. If not present in netlink message, the idle timer defaults to 120 seconds, and there is no unbalanced timer, meaning the group may remain unbalanced indefinitely. The value of 120 is the default in Cumulus implementation of resilient next-hop groups. To a degree the default is arbitrary, the only value that certainly does not make sense is 0. Therefore going with an existing deployed implementation is reasonable. Unbalanced time, i.e. how long since the last time that all nexthops had as many buckets as they should according to their weights, is reported when the group is dumped: # ip nexthop show id 10 id 10 group 1/2 type resilient buckets 8 idle_timer 60 unbalanced_timer 300 unbalanced_time 0 When replacing next hops or changing weights, if one does not specify some parameters, their value is left as it was: # ip nexthop replace id 10 group 1,2/2 type resilient # ip nexthop show id 10 id 10 group 1,2/2 type resilient buckets 8 idle_timer 60 unbalanced_timer 300 unbalanced_time 0 It is also possible to do a dump of individual buckets (and now you know why there were only 8 of them in the example above): # ip nexthop bucket show id 10 id 10 index 0 idle_time 5.59 nhid 1 id 10 index 1 idle_time 5.59 nhid 1 id 10 index 2 idle_time 8.74 nhid 2 id 10 index 3 idle_time 8.74 nhid 2 id 10 index 4 idle_time 8.74 nhid 1 id 10 index 5 idle_time 8.74 nhid 1 id 10 index 6 idle_time 8.74 nhid 1 id 10 index 7 idle_time 8.74 nhid 1 Note the two buckets that have a shorter idle time. Those are the ones that were migrated after the nexthop replace command to satisfy the new demand that nexthop 1 be given 6 buckets instead of 4. The patchset proceeds as follows: - Patches #1 and #2 are small refactoring patches. - Patch #3 adds a new flag to struct nh_group, is_multipath. This flag is meant to be set for all nexthop groups that in general have several nexthops from which they choose, and avoids a more expensive dispatch based on reading several flags, one for each nexthop group type. - Patch #4 contains defines of new UAPI attributes and the new next-hop group type. At this point, the nexthop code is made to bounce the new type. As the resilient hashing code is gradually added in the following patch sets, it will remain dead. The last patch will make it accessible. This patch also adds a suite of new messages related to next hop buckets. This approach was taken instead of overloading the information on the existing RTM_{NEW,DEL,GET}NEXTHOP messages for the following reasons. First, a next-hop group can contain a large number of next-hop buckets (4k is not unheard of). This imposes limits on the amount of information that can be encoded for each next-hop bucket given a netlink message is limited to 64k bytes. Second, while RTM_NEWNEXTHOPBUCKET is only used for notifications at this point, in the future it can be extended to provide user space with control over next-hop buckets configuration. - Patch #5 contains the meat of the resilient next-hop group support. - Patches #6 and #7 implement support for notifications towards the drivers. - Patch #8 adds an interface for the drivers to report resilient hash table bucket activity. Drivers will be able to report through this interface whether traffic is hitting a given bucket. - Patch #9 adds an interface for the drivers to report whether a given hash table bucket is offloaded or trapping traffic. - In patches #10, #11, #12 and #13, UAPI is implemented. This includes all the code necessary for creation of resilient groups, bucket dumping and getting, and bucket migration notifications. - In patch #14 the next-hop groups are finally made available. The overall plan is to contribute approximately the following patchsets: 1) Nexthop policy refactoring (already pushed) 2) Preparations for resilient next-hop groups (already pushed) 3) Implementation of resilient next-hop groups (this patchset) 4) Netdevsim offload plus a suite of selftests 5) Preparations for mlxsw offload of resilient next-hop groups 6) mlxsw offload including selftests Interested parties can look at the current state of the code at [2] and [3].

Implement the following notifications towards drivers: - NEXTHOP_EVENT_REPLACE, when a resilient nexthop group is created. - NEXTHOP_EVENT_BUCKET_REPLACE any time there is a change in assignment of next hops to hash table buckets. That includes replacements, deletions, and delayed upkeep cycles. Some bucket notifications can be vetoed by the driver, to make it possible to propagate bucket busy-ness flags from the HW back to the algorithm. Some are however forced, e.g. if a next hop is deleted, all buckets that use this next hop simply must be migrated, whether the HW wishes so or not. - NEXTHOP_EVENT_RES_TABLE_PRE_REPLACE, before a resilient nexthop group is replaced. Usually the driver will get the bucket notifications as well, and could veto those. But in some cases, a bucket may not be migrated immediately, but during delayed upkeep, and that is too late to roll the transaction back. This notification allows the driver to take a look and veto the new proposed group up front, before anything is committed.

While there will usually be some overlap between the previous and the new distribution, some traffic flows change the next hop that they resolve to.

The selection algorithm uses a straightforward modulo operation to choose a hash bucket, and then reads the next hop that this bucket contains, and forwards traffic there.

The algorithm has knobs to select both what it means for a bucket to be idle, and for whether and when to forcefully migrate buckets if there keeps being an insufficient number of idle buckets. There are three users of the resilient data structures. - The forwarding code accesses them under RCU, and does not modify them except for updating the time a selected bucket was last used. - Netlink code, running under RTNL, which may modify the data. - The delayed upkeep code, which may modify the data. This runs unlocked, and mutual exclusion between the RTNL code and the delayed upkeep is maintained by canceling the delayed work synchronously before the RTNL code touches anything. Later it restarts the delayed work if necessary. The RTNL code has to implement next-hop group replacement, next hop removal, etc. For removal, the mpath code uses a neat trick of having a backup next hop group structure, doing the necessary changes offline, and then RCU-swapping them in. However, the hash tables for resilient hashing are about an order of magnitude larger than the groups themselves (the size might be e.g. 4K entries), and it was felt that keeping two of them is an overkill. Both the primary next-hop group and the spare therefore use the same resilient table, and writers are careful to keep all references valid for the forwarding code. The hash table references next-hop group entries from the next-hop group that is currently in the primary role (i.e. not spare). During the transition from primary to spare, the table references a mix of both the primary group and the spare. When a next hop is deleted, the corresponding buckets are not set to NULL, but instead marked as empty, so that the pointer is valid and can be used by the forwarding code. The buckets are then migrated to a new next-hop group entry during upkeep. The only times that the hash table is invalid is the very beginning and very end of its lifetime. Between those points, it is always kept valid. This patch introduces the core support code itself. It does not handle notifications towards drivers, which are kept as if the group were an mpath one. It does not handle netlink either. The only bit currently exposed to user space is the new next-hop group type, and that is currently bounced. There is therefore no way to actually access this code.

With the introduction of resilient nexthop groups, there will be two types of multipath groups: the current hash-threshold "mpath" ones, and resilient groups. Both are multipath, but to determine the fact, the system needs to consider two flags. This might prove costly in the datapath. Therefore, introduce a new flag, that should be set for next-hop groups that have more than one nexthop, and should be considered multipath.

The cited function currently uses rtnl_dereference() to get nh_info from a handed-in nexthop. However, under the resilient hashing scheme, this function will not always be called under RTNL, sometimes the mutual exclusion will be achieved differently. Therefore move the nh_info extraction from the function to its callers to make it possible to use a different synchronization guarantee.

Currently, replace assumes that the new group that is given is a fully-formed object. But mpath groups really only have one attribute, and that is the constituent next hop configuration. This may not be universally true. From the usability perspective, it is desirable to allow the replace operation to adjust just the constituent next hop configuration and leave the group attributes as such intact. But the object that keeps track of whether an attribute was or was not given is the nh_config object, not the next hop or next-hop group. To allow (selective) attribute updates during NH group replacement, propagate `cfg' to replace_nexthop() and further to replace_nexthop_grp().

When there are 2 segments routing header, after an End.B6 action for example, the second SRH will never be handled by an action, packet will be dropped when the first SRH has segments left equal to 0. For actions that doesn't perform decapsulation (currently: End, End.X, End.T, End.B6, End.B6.Encaps), this patch adds the IP6_FH_F_SKIP_RH flag in arguments for ipv6_find_hdr().

As specified in IETF RFC 8754, section 4.3.1.2, if the upper layer header is IPv4 or IPv6, perform IPv6 decapsulation and resubmit the decapsulated packet to the IPv4 or IPv6 module. Only IPv6 decapsulation was implemented. This patch adds support for IPv4 decapsulation.
