Jon Maloy says: ==================== tipc: introduce variable window congestion control We improve thoughput greatly by introducing a variety of the Reno congestion control algorithm at the link level. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Jon Maloy authored
We introduce a simple variable window congestion control for links. The algorithm is inspired by the Reno algorithm, covering both 'slow start', 'congestion avoidance', and 'fast recovery' modes. - We introduce hard lower and upper window limits per link, still different and configurable per bearer type. - We introduce a 'slow start theshold' variable, initially set to the maximum window size. - We let a link start at the minimum congestion window, i.e. in slow start mode, and then let is grow rapidly (+1 per rceived ACK) until it reaches the slow start threshold and enters congestion avoidance mode. - In congestion avoidance mode we increment the congestion window for each window-size number of acked packets, up to a possible maximum equal to the configured maximum window. - For each non-duplicate NACK received, we drop back to fast recovery mode, by setting the both the slow start threshold to and the congestion window to (current_congestion_window / 2). - If the timeout handler finds that the transmit queue has not moved since the previous timeout, it drops the link back to slow start and forces a probe containing the last sent sequence number to the sent to the peer, so that this can discover the stale situation. This change does in reality have effect only on unicast ethernet transport, as we have seen that there is no room whatsoever for increasing the window max size for the UDP bearer. For now, we also choose to keep the limits for the broadcast link unchanged and equal. This algorithm seems to give a 50-100% throughput improvement for messages larger than MTU.

When we increase the link tranmsit window we often observe the following scenario: 1) A STATE message bypasses a sequence of traffic packets and arrives far ahead of those to the receiver. STATE messages contain a 'peers_nxt_snt' field to indicate which was the last packet sent from the peer. This mechanism is intended as a last resort for the receiver to detect missing packets, e.g., during very low traffic when there is no packet flow to help early loss detection. 3) The receiving link compares the 'peer_nxt_snt' field to its own 'rcv_nxt', finds that there is a gap, and immediately sends a NACK message back to the peer. 4) When this NACKs arrives at the sender, all the requested retransmissions are performed, since it is a first-time request. Just like in the scenario described in the previous commit this leads to many redundant retransmissions, with decreased throughput as a consequence. We fix this by adding two more conditions before we send a NACK in this sitution. First, the deferred queue must be empty, so we cannot assume that the potential packet loss has already been detected by other means. Second, we check the 'peers_snd_nxt' field only in probe/ probe_reply messages, thus turning this into a true mechanism of last resort as it was really meant to be.

When we increase the link send window we sometimes observe the following scenario: 1) A packet #N arrives out of order far ahead of a sequence of older packets which are still under way. The packet is added to the deferred queue. 2) The missing packets arrive in sequence, and for each 16th of them an ACK is sent back to the receiver, as it should be. 3) When building those ACK messages, it is checked if there is a gap between the link's 'rcv_nxt' and the first packet in the deferred queue. This is always the case until packet number #N-1 arrives, and a 'gap' indicator is added, effectively turning them into NACK messages. 4) When those NACKs arrive at the sender, all the requested retransmissions are done, since it is a first-time request. This sometimes leads to a huge amount of redundant retransmissions, causing a drop in max throughput. This problem gets worse when we in a later commit introduce variable window congestion control, since it drops the link back to 'fast recovery' much more often than necessary. We now fix this by not sending any 'gap' indicator in regular ACK messages. We already have a mechanism for sending explicit NACKs in place, and this is sufficient to keep up the packet flow.

Dan Murphy says: ==================== Fix Tx/Rx FIFO depth for DP83867 The DP83867 supports both the RGMII and SGMII modes. The Tx and Rx FIFO depths are configurable in these modes but may not applicable for both modes. When the device is configured for RGMII mode the Tx FIFO depth is applicable and for SGMII mode both Tx and Rx FIFO depth settings are applicable. When the driver was originally written only the RGMII device was available and there were no standard fifo-depth DT properties. The patchset converts the special ti,fifo-depth property to the standard tx-fifo-depth property while still allowing the ti,fifo-depth property to be set as to maintain backward compatibility. In addition to this change the rx-fifo-depth property support was added and only written when the device is configured for SGMII mode. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

This code changes the TI specific ti,fifo-depth to the common tx-fifo-depth property. The tx depth is applicable for both RGMII and SGMII modes of operation. rx-fifo-depth was added as well but this is only applicable for SGMII mode. So in summary if RGMII mode write tx fifo depth only if SGMII mode write both rx and tx fifo depths If the property is not populated in the device tree then set the value to the default values.

This patch introduces a sysctl knob "net.ipv4.tcp_no_ssthresh_metrics_save" that disables TCP ssthresh metrics cache by default. Other parts of TCP metrics cache, e.g. rtt, cwnd, remain unchanged. As modern networks becoming more and more dynamic, TCP metrics cache today often causes more harm than benefits. For example, the same IP address is often shared by different subscribers behind NAT in residential networks. Even if the IP address is not shared by different users, caching the slow-start threshold of a previous short flow using loss-based congestion control (e.g. cubic) often causes the future longer flows of the same network path to exit slow-start prematurely with abysmal throughput. Caching ssthresh is very risky and can lead to terrible performance. Therefore it makes sense to make disabling ssthresh caching by default and opt-in for specific networks by the administrators. This practice also has worked well for several years of deployment with CUBIC congestion control at Google.

WireGuard is a layer 3 secure networking tunnel made specifically for the kernel, that aims to be much simpler and easier to audit than IPsec. Extensive documentation and description of the protocol and considerations, along with formal proofs of the cryptography, are available at: * https://www.wireguard.com/ * https://www.wireguard.com/papers/wireguard.pdf This commit implements WireGuard as a simple network device driver, accessible in the usual RTNL way used by virtual network drivers. It makes use of the udp_tunnel APIs, GRO, GSO, NAPI, and the usual set of networking subsystem APIs. It has a somewhat novel multicore queueing system designed for maximum throughput and minimal latency of encryption operations, but it is implemented modestly using workqueues and NAPI. Configuration is done via generic Netlink, and following a review from the Netlink maintainer a year ago, several high profile userspace tools have already implemented the API. This commit also comes with several different tests, both in-kernel tests and out-of-kernel tests based on network namespaces, taking profit of the fact that sockets used by WireGuard intentionally stay in the namespace the WireGuard interface was originally created, exactly like the semantics of userspace tun devices. See wireguard.com/netns/ for pictures and examples. The source code is fairly short, but rather than combining everything into a single file, WireGuard is developed as cleanly separable files, making auditing and comprehension easier. Things are laid out as follows: * noise.[ch], cookie.[ch], messages.h: These implement the bulk of the cryptographic aspects of the protocol, and are mostly data-only in nature, taking in buffers of bytes and spitting out buffers of bytes. They also handle reference counting for their various shared pieces of data, like keys and key lists. * ratelimiter.[ch]: Used as an integral part of cookie.[ch] for ratelimiting certain types of cryptographic operations in accordance with particular WireGuard semantics. * allowedips.[ch], peerlookup.[ch]: The main lookup structures of WireGuard, the former being trie-like with particular semantics, an integral part of the design of the protocol, and the latter just being nice helper functions around the various hashtables we use. * device.[ch]: Implementation of functions for the netdevice and for rtnl, responsible for maintaining the life of a given interface and wiring it up to the rest of WireGuard. * peer.[ch]: Each interface has a list of peers, with helper functions available here for creation, destruction, and reference counting. * socket.[ch]: Implementation of functions related to udp_socket and the general set of kernel socket APIs, for sending and receiving ciphertext UDP packets, and taking care of WireGuard-specific sticky socket routing semantics for the automatic roaming. * netlink.[ch]: Userspace API entry point for configuring WireGuard peers and devices. The API has been implemented by several userspace tools and network management utility, and the WireGuard project distributes the basic wg(8) tool. * queueing.[ch]: Shared function on the rx and tx path for handling the various queues used in the multicore algorithms. * send.c: Handles encrypting outgoing packets in parallel on multiple cores, before sending them in order on a single core, via workqueues and ring buffers. Also handles sending handshake and cookie messages as part of the protocol, in parallel. * receive.c: Handles decrypting incoming packets in parallel on multiple cores, before passing them off in order to be ingested via the rest of the networking subsystem with GRO via the typical NAPI poll function. Also handles receiving handshake and cookie messages as part of the protocol, in parallel. * timers.[ch]: Uses the timer wheel to implement protocol particular event timeouts, and gives a set of very simple event-driven entry point functions for callers. * main.c, version.h: Initialization and deinitialization of the module. * selftest/*.h: Runtime unit tests for some of the most security sensitive functions. * tools/testing/selftests/wireguard/netns.sh: Aforementioned testing script using network namespaces. This commit aims to be as self-contained as possible, implementing WireGuard as a standalone module not needing much special handling or coordination from the network subsystem. I expect for future optimizations to the network stack to positively improve WireGuard, and vice-versa, but for the time being, this exists as intentionally standalone. We introduce a menu option for CONFIG_WIREGUARD, as well as providing a verbose debug log and self-tests via CONFIG_WIREGUARD_DEBUG. Signed-off-by: Jason A.

We had cases in the previous patch where we were sending the security descriptor context on SMB3 open (file create) in cases when we hadn't mounted with with "modefromsid" mount option. Add check for that mount flag before calling ad_sd_context in open init. Signed-off-by: Steve French <stfrench@microsoft.com> Reviewed-by: Pavel Shilovsky <pshilov@microsoft.com>

pipe_wait() may be simple, but since it relies on the pipe lock, it means that we have to do the wakeup while holding the lock. That's unfortunate, because the very first thing the waked entity will want to do is to get the pipe lock for itself. So get rid of the pipe_wait() usage by simply releasing the pipe lock, doing the wakeup (if required) and then using wait_event_interruptible() to wait on the right condition instead. wait_event_interruptible() handles races on its own by comparing the wakeup condition before and after adding itself to the wait queue, so you can use an optimistic unlocked condition for it.

This code is ancient, and goes back to when we only had a single page for the pipe buffers. The exact history is hidden in the mists of time (ie "before git", and in fact predates the BK repository too). At that long-ago point in time, it actually helped to try to merge big back-and-forth pipe reads and writes, and not limit pipe reads to the single pipe buffer in length just because that was all we had at a time. However, since then we've expanded the pipe buffers to multiple pages, and this logic really doesn't seem to make sense. And a lot of it is somewhat questionable (ie "hmm, the user asked for a non-blocking read, but we see that there's a writer pending, so let's wait anyway to get the extra data that the writer will have"). But more importantly, it makes the "go to sleep" logic much less obvious, and considering the wakeup issues we've had, I want to make for less of those kinds of things.

This is the read side version of the previous commit: it simplifies the logic to only wake up waiting writers when necessary, and makes sure to use a synchronous wakeup. This time not so much for GNU make jobserver reasons (that pipe never fills up), but simply to get the writer going quickly again. A bit less verbose commentary this time, if only because I assume that the write side commentary isn't going to be ignored if you touch this code.

The pipe rework ends up having been extra painful, partly becaused of actual bugs with ordering and caching of the pipe state, but also because of subtle performance issues. In particular, the pipe rework caused the kernel build to inexplicably slow down. The reason turns out to be that the GNU make jobserver (which limits the parallelism of the build) uses a pipe to implement a "token" system: a parallel submake will read a character from the pipe to get the job token before starting a new job, and will write a character back to the pipe when it is done. The overall job limit is thus easily controlled by just writing the appropriate number of initial token characters into the pipe. But to work well, that really means that the old behavior of write wakeups being synchronous (WF_SYNC) is very important - when the pipe writer wakes up a reader, we want the reader to actually get scheduled immediately. Otherwise you lose the parallelism of the build. The pipe rework lost that synchronous wakeup on write, and we had clearly all forgotten the reasons and rules for it. This rewrites the pipe write wakeup logic to do the required Wsync wakeups, but also clarifies the logic and avoids extraneous wakeups. It also ends up addign a number of comments about what oit does and why, so that we hopefully don't end up forgetting about this next time we change this code.
