2013-02-18net: proc: change proc_net_fops_create to proc_createGao feng1-1/+1
Right now, some modules such as bonding use proc_create to create proc entries under /proc/net/, and other modules such as ipv4 use proc_net_fops_create. It looks a little chaos.this patch changes all of proc_net_fops_create to proc_create. we can remove proc_net_fops_create after this patch.

Additionally, things like xfrm, memcg, cookie_values,... may have been initialized. We have to free them properly. This is fixed by forcing a call to tcp_done(), ending up in inet_csk_destroy_sock, doing the final sock_put(). tcp_done() is necessary, because it ends up doing all the cleanup on xfrm, memcg, cookie_values, xfrm,... Before calling tcp_done, we have to set the socket to SOCK_DEAD, to force it entering inet_csk_destroy_sock. To avoid the warning in inet_csk_destroy_sock, inet_num has to be set to 0. As inet_csk_destroy_sock does a dec on orphan_count, we first have to increase it. Calling tcp_done() allows us to remove the calls to tcp_clear_xmit_timer() and tcp_cleanup_congestion_control(). A similar approach is taken for dccp by calling dccp_done(). This is in the kernel since 093d282321 (tproxy: fix hash locking issue when using port redirection in __inet_inherit_port()), thus since version >= 2.6.37.

2012-11-03tcp: better retrans tracking for defer-acceptEric Dumazet1-2/+1
For passive TCP connections using TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT facility, we incorrectly increment req->retrans each time timeout triggers while no SYNACK is sent. SYNACK are not sent for TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT that were established (for which we received the ACK from client). Only the last SYNACK is sent so that we can receive again an ACK from client, to move the req into accept queue. We plan to change this later to avoid the useless retransmit (and potential problem as this SYNACK could be lost) TCP_INFO later gives wrong information to user, claiming imaginary retransmits. Decouple req->retrans field into two independent fields : num_retrans : number of retransmit num_timeout : number of timeouts num_timeout is the counter that is incremented at each timeout, regardless of actual SYNACK being sent or not, and used to compute the exponential timeout. Introduce inet_rtx_syn_ack() helper to increment num_retrans only if ->rtx_syn_ack() succeeded. Use inet_rtx_syn_ack() from tcp_check_req() to increment num_retrans when we re-send a SYNACK in answer to a (retransmitted) SYN. Prior to this patch, we were not counting these retransmits. Change tcp_v[46]_rtx_synack() to increment TCP_MIB_RETRANSSEGS only if a synack packet was successfully queued.

2012-07-23ipv4: Prepare for change of rt->rt_iif encoding.David S. Miller1-1/+1
Use inet_iif() consistently, and for TCP record the input interface of cached RX dst in inet sock. rt->rt_iif is going to be encoded differently, so that we can legitimately cache input routes in the FIB info more aggressively. When the input interface is "use SKB device index" the rt->rt_iif will be set to zero. This forces us to move the TCP RX dst cache installation into the ipv4 specific code, and as well it should since doing the route caching for ipv6 is pointless at the moment since it is not inspected in the ipv6 input paths yet. Also, remove the unlikely on dst->obsolete, all ipv4 dsts have obsolete set to a non-zero value to force invocation of the check callback. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2012-07-17net: Pass optional SKB and SK arguments to dst_ops->{update_pmtu,redirect}()David S. Miller2-2/+2
This will be used so that we can compose a full flow key. Even though we have a route in this context, we need more. In the future the routes will be without destination address, source address, etc. keying. One ipv4 route will cover entire subnets, etc. In this environment we have to have a way to possess persistent storage for redirects and PMTU information. This persistent storage will exist in the FIB tables, and that's why we'll need to be able to rebuild a full lookup flow key here. Using that flow key will do a fib_lookup() and create/update the persistent entry. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2012-07-16ipv4: Add helper inet_csk_update_pmtu().David S. Miller1-9/+2
This abstracts away the call to dst_ops->update_pmtu() so that we can transparently handle the fact that, in the future, the dst itself can be invalidated by the PMTU update (when we have non-host routes cached in sockets). So we try to rebuild the socket cached route after the method invocation if necessary. This isn't used by SCTP because it needs to cache dsts per-transport, and thus will need it's own local version of this helper. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2012-06-15ipv6: Handle PMTU in ICMP error handlers.David S. Miller1-0/+2
One tricky issue on the ipv6 side vs. ipv4 is that the ICMP callouts to handle the error pass the 32-bit info cookie in network byte order whereas ipv4 passes it around in host byte order. Like the ipv4 side, we have two helper functions. One for when we have a socket context and one for when we do not. ip6ip6 tunnels are not handled here, because they handle PMTU events by essentially relaying another ICMP packet-too-big message back to the original sender. This patch allows us to get rid of rt6_do_pmtu_disc(). It handles all kinds of situations that simply cannot happen when we do the PMTU update directly using a fully resolved route. In fact, the "plen == 128" check in ip6_rt_update_pmtu() can very likely be removed or changed into a BUG_ON() check. We should never have a prefixed ipv6 route when we get there. Another piece of strange history here is that TCP and DCCP, unlike in ipv4, never invoke the update_pmtu() method from their ICMP error handlers. This is incredibly astonishing since this is the context where we have the most accurate context in which to make a PMTU update, namely we have a fully connected socket and associated cached socket route.

2012-03-03dccp: fix bug in sequence number validation during connection setupSamuel Jero4-18/+26
This fixes a bug in the sequence number validation during the initial handshake. The code did not treat the initial sequence numbers ISS and ISR as read-only and did not keep state for GSR and GSS as required by the specification.

2011-08-06net: Compute protocol sequence numbers and fragment IDs using MD5.David S. Miller2-7/+3
Computers have become a lot faster since we compromised on the partial MD4 hash which we use currently for performance reasons. MD5 is a much safer choice, and is inline with both RFC1948 and other ISS generators (OpenBSD, Solaris, etc.) Furthermore, only having 24-bits of the sequence number be truly unpredictable is a very serious limitation. So the periodic regeneration and 8-bit counter have been removed. We compute and use a full 32-bit sequence number. For ipv6, DCCP was found to use a 32-bit truncated initial sequence number (it needs 43-bits) and that is fixed here as well.

2011-08-01dccp ccid-2: check Ack Ratio when reducing cwndSamuel Jero1-3/+23
This patch causes CCID-2 to check the Ack Ratio after reducing the congestion window. If the Ack Ratio is greater than the congestion window, it is reduced. This prevents timeouts caused by an Ack Ratio larger than the congestion window. In this situation, we choose to set the Ack Ratio to half the congestion window (or one if that's zero) so that if we loose one ack we don't trigger a timeout.

2011-08-01dccp ccid-2: increment cwnd correctlySamuel Jero1-1/+1
This patch fixes an issue where CCID-2 will not increase the congestion window for numerous RTTs after an idle period, application-limited period, or a loss once the algorithm is in Congestion Avoidance. What happens is that, when CCID-2 is in Congestion Avoidance mode, it will increase hc->tx_packets_acked by one for every packet and will increment cwnd every cwnd packets. However, if there is now an idle period in the connection, cwnd will be reduced, possibly below the slow start threshold. This will cause the connection to go into Slow Start. However, in Slow Start CCID-2 performs this test to increment cwnd every second ack: ++hc->tx_packets_acked == 2 Unfortunately, this will be incorrect, if cwnd previous to the idle period was larger than 2 and if tx_packets_acked was close to cwnd. For example: cwnd=50 and tx_packets_acked=45. In this case, the current code, will increment tx_packets_acked until it equals two, which will only be once tx_packets_acked (an unsigned 32-bit integer) overflows. My fix is simply to change that test for tx_packets_acked greater than or equal to two in slow start. Signed-off-by: Samuel Jero <sj323707@ohio.edu> Acked-by: Gerrit Renker <gerrit@erg.abdn.ac.uk>
2011-08-01dccp ccid-2: prevent cwnd > Sequence WindowSamuel Jero2-15/+41
Add a check to prevent CCID-2 from increasing the cwnd greater than the Sequence Window. When the congestion window becomes bigger than the Sequence Window, CCID-2 will attempt to keep more data in the network than the DCCP Sequence Window code considers possible. This results in the Sequence Window code issuing a Sync, thereby inducing needless overhead. Further, if this occurs at the sender, CCID-2 will never detect the problem because the Acks it receives will indicate no losses. I have seen this cause a drop of 1/3rd in throughput for a connection. Also add code to adjust the Sequence Window to be about 5 times the number of packets in the network (RFC 4340, 7.5.2) and to adjust the Ack Ratio so that the remote Sequence Window will hold about 5 times the number of packets in the network. This allows the congestion window to increase correctly without being limited by the Sequence Window. Signed-off-by: Samuel Jero <sj323707@ohio.edu> Acked-by: Gerrit Renker <gerrit@erg.abdn.ac.uk>
