2018-11-21tcp: defer SACK compression after DupThreshEric Dumazet1-3/+3
Jean-Louis reported a TCP regression and bisected to recent SACK compression. After a loss episode (receiver not able to keep up and dropping packets because its backlog is full), linux TCP stack is sending a single SACK (DUPACK). Sender waits a full RTO timer before recovering losses. While RFC 6675 says in section 5, "Algorithm Details", (2) If DupAcks < DupThresh but IsLost (HighACK + 1) returns true -- indicating at least three segments have arrived above the current cumulative acknowledgment point, which is taken to indicate loss -- go to step (4). ... (4) Invoke fast retransmit and enter loss recovery as follows: there are old TCP stacks not implementing this strategy, and still counting the dupacks before starting fast retransmit. While these stacks probably perform poorly when receivers implement LRO/GRO, we should be a little more gentle to them. This patch makes sure we do not enable SACK compression unless 3 dupacks have been sent since last rcv_nxt update. Ideally we should even rearm the timer to send one or two more DUPACK if no more packets are coming, but that will be work aiming for linux-4.21. Many thanks to Jean-Louis for bisecting the issue, providing packet captures and testing this patch.

2018-11-11tcp: tsq: no longer use limit_output_bytes for paced flowsEric Dumazet1-2/+3
FQ pacing guarantees that paced packets queued by one flow do not add head-of-line blocking for other flows. After TCP GSO conversion, increasing limit_output_bytes to 1 MB is safe, since this maps to 16 skbs at most in qdisc or device queues. (or slightly more if some drivers lower {gso_max_segs|size}) We still can queue at most 1 ms worth of traffic (this can be scaled by wifi drivers if they need to) Tested: # ethtool -c eth0 | egrep "tx-usecs:|tx-frames:" # 40 Gbit mlx4 NIC tx-usecs: 16 tx-frames: 16 # tc qdisc replace dev eth0 root fq # for f in {1..10};do netperf -P0 -H lpaa24,6 -o THROUGHPUT;done Before patch: 27711 26118 27107 27377 27712 27388 27340 27117 27278 27509 After patch: 37434 36949 36658 36998 37711 37291 37605 36659 36544 37349 Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2018-11-11tcp: get rid of tcp_tso_should_defer() dependency on HZ/jiffiesEric Dumazet1-2/+5
tcp_tso_should_defer() first heuristic is to not defer if last send is "old enough". Its current implementation uses jiffies and its low granularity. TSO autodefer performance should not rely on kernel HZ :/ After EDT conversion, we have state variables in nanoseconds that can allow us to properly implement the heuristic. This patch increases TSO chunk sizes on medium rate flows, especially when receivers do not use GRO or similar aggregation. It also reduces bursts for HZ=100 or HZ=250 kernels, making TCP behavior more uniform.

2018-10-23tcp: add tcp_reset_xmit_timer() helperEric Dumazet1-8/+10
With EDT model, SRTT no longer is inflated by pacing delays. This means that RTO and some other xmit timers might be setup incorrectly. This is particularly visible with either : - Very small enforced pacing rates (SO_MAX_PACING_RATE) - Reduced rto (from the default 200 ms) This can lead to TCP flows aborts in the worst case, or spurious retransmits in other cases. For example, this session gets far more throughput than the requested 80kbit : $ netperf -H 127.0.0.2 -l 100 -- -q 10000 MIGRATED TCP STREAM TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET to 127.0.0.2 () port 0 AF_INET Recv Send Send Socket Socket Message Elapsed Size Size Size Time Throughput bytes bytes bytes secs. 10^6bits/sec 540000 262144 262144 104.00 2.66 With the fix : $ netperf -H 127.0.0.2 -l 100 -- -q 10000 MIGRATED TCP STREAM TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET to 127.0.0.2 () port 0 AF_INET Recv Send Send Socket Socket Message Elapsed Size Size Size Time Throughput bytes bytes bytes secs. 10^6bits/sec 540000 262144 262144 104.00 0.12 EDT allows for better control of rtx timers, since TCP has a better idea of the earliest departure time of each skb in the rtx queue.

Andrey reported the following warning triggered while running CRIU tests: tcp_clean_rtx_queue() ... last_ackt = tcp_skb_timestamp_us(skb); WARN_ON_ONCE(last_ackt == 0); This is caused by 5f6188a8003d ("tcp: do not change tcp_wstamp_ns in tcp_mstamp_refresh"), as we end up having skbs in retransmit queue with a zero skb->skb_mstamp_ns field. We could fix this bug in different ways, like making sure tp->tcp_wstamp_ns is not zero at socket creation, but as Neal pointed out, we also do not want that pacing status of a repaired socket could push tp->tcp_wstamp_ns far ahead in the future. So we prefer changing tcp_write_xmit() to not call tcp_update_skb_after_send() and instead do what is requested by TCP_REPAIR logic.

2018-10-15tcp: optimize tcp internal pacingEric Dumazet1-15/+16
When TCP implements its own pacing (when no fq packet scheduler is used), it is arming high resolution timer after a packet is sent. But in many cases (like TCP_RR kind of workloads), this high resolution timer expires before the application attempts to write the following packet. This overhead also happens when the flow is ACK clocked and cwnd limited instead of being limited by the pacing rate. This leads to extra overhead (high number of IRQ) Now tcp_wstamp_ns is reserved for the pacing timer only (after commit "tcp: do not change tcp_wstamp_ns in tcp_mstamp_refresh"), we can setup the timer only when a packet is about to be sent, and if tcp_wstamp_ns is in the future. This leads to a ~10% performance increase in TCP_RR workloads. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2018-10-15tcp: mitigate scheduling jitter in EDT pacing modelEric Dumazet1-6/+13
In commit fefa569a9d4b ("net_sched: sch_fq: account for schedule/timers drifts") we added a mitigation for scheduling jitter in fq packet scheduler. This patch does the same in TCP stack, now it is using EDT model. Note that this mitigation is valid for both external (fq packet scheduler) or internal TCP pacing. This uses the same strategy than the above commit, allowing a time credit of half the packet currently sent. Consider following case : An skb is sent, after an idle period of 300 usec. The air-time (skb->len/pacing_rate) is 500 usec Instead of setting the pacing timer to now+500 usec, it will use now+min(500/2, 300) -> now+250usec This is like having a token bucket with a depth of half an skb.

2018-10-15net: extend sk_pacing_rate to unsigned longEric Dumazet1-8/+11
sk_pacing_rate has beed introduced as a u32 field in 2013, effectively limiting per flow pacing to 34Gbit. We believe it is time to allow TCP to pace high speed flows on 64bit hosts, as we now can reach 100Gbit on one TCP flow. This patch adds no cost for 32bit kernels. The tcpi_pacing_rate and tcpi_max_pacing_rate were already exported as 64bit, so iproute2/ss command require no changes. Unfortunately the SO_MAX_PACING_RATE socket option will stay 32bit and we will need to add a new option to let applications control high pacing rates.

2018-10-15tcp: do not change tcp_wstamp_ns in tcp_mstamp_refreshEric Dumazet1-3/+6
In EDT design, I made the mistake of using tcp_wstamp_ns to store the last tcp_clock_ns() sample and to store the pacing virtual timer. This causes major regressions at high speed flows. Introduce tcp_clock_cache to store last tcp_clock_ns(). This is needed because some arches have slow high-resolution kernel time service. tcp_wstamp_ns is only updated when a packet is sent. Note that we can remove tcp_mstamp in the future since tcp_mstamp is essentially tcp_clock_cache/1000, so the apparent socket size increase is temporary.

2018-09-29tcp: up initial rmem to 128KB and SYN rwin to around 64KBYuchung Cheng1-21/+4
Previously TCP initial receive buffer is ~87KB by default and the initial receive window is ~29KB (20 MSS). This patch changes the two numbers to 128KB and ~64KB (rounding down to the multiples of MSS) respectively. The patch also simplifies the calculations s.t. the two numbers are directly controlled by sysctl tcp_rmem[1]: 1) Initial receiver buffer budget (sk_rcvbuf): while this should be configured via sysctl tcp_rmem[1], previously tcp_fixup_rcvbuf() always override and set a larger size when a new connection establishes. 2) Initial receive window in SYN: previously it is set to 20 packets if MSS <= 1460. The number 20 was based on the initial congestion window of 10: the receiver needs twice amount to avoid being limited by the receive window upon out-of-order delivery in the first window burst. But since this only applies if the receiving MSS <= 1460, connection using large MTU (e.g. to utilize receiver zero-copy) may be limited by the receive window. With this patch TCP memory configuration is more straight-forward and more properly sized to modern high-speed networks by default. Several popular stacks have been announcing 64KB rwin in SYNs as well.

2018-09-21tcp: switch tcp and sch_fq to new earliest departure time modelEric Dumazet1-4/+18
TCP keeps track of tcp_wstamp_ns by itself, meaning sch_fq no longer has to do it. Thanks to this model, TCP can get more accurate RTT samples, since pacing no longer inflates them. This has the nice effect of removing some delays caused by FQ quantum mechanism, causing inflated max/P99 latencies. Also we might relax TCP Small Queue tight limits in the future, since this new model allow TCP to build bigger batches, since sch_fq (or a device with earliest departure time offload) ensure these packets will be delivered on time. Note that other protocols are not converted (they will probably never be) so sch_fq has still support for SO_MAX_PACING_RATE Tested: Test showing FQ pacing quantum artifact for low-rate flows, adding unexpected throttles for RPC flows, inflating max and P99 latencies.

2018-07-20tcp: do not cancel delay-AcK on DCTCP special ACKYuchung Cheng1-3/+7
Currently when a DCTCP receiver delays an ACK and receive a data packet with a different CE mark from the previous one's, it sends two immediate ACKs acking previous and latest sequences respectly (for ECN accounting). Previously sending the first ACK may mark off the delayed ACK timer (tcp_event_ack_sent). This may subsequently prevent sending the second ACK to acknowledge the latest sequence (tcp_ack_snd_check). The culprit is that tcp_send_ack() assumes it always acknowleges the latest sequence, which is not true for the first special ACK. The fix is to not make the assumption in tcp_send_ack and check the actual ack sequence before cancelling the delayed ACK. Further it's safer to pass the ack sequence number as a local variable into tcp_send_ack routine, instead of intercepting tp->rcv_nxt to avoid future bugs like this.

2018-05-18tcp: add SACK compressionEric Dumazet1-0/+7
When TCP receives an out-of-order packet, it immediately sends a SACK packet, generating network load but also forcing the receiver to send 1-MSS pathological packets, increasing its RTX queue length/depth, and thus processing time. Wifi networks suffer from this aggressive behavior, but generally speaking, all these SACK packets add fuel to the fire when networks are under congestion. This patch adds a high resolution timer and tp->compressed_ack counter. Instead of sending a SACK, we program this timer with a small delay, based on RTT and capped to 1 ms : delay = min ( 5 % of RTT, 1 ms) If subsequent SACKs need to be sent while the timer has not yet expired, we simply increment tp->compressed_ack. When timer expires, a SACK is sent with the latest information. Whenever an ACK is sent (if data is sent, or if in-order data is received) timer is canceled. Note that tcp_sack_new_ofo_skb() is able to force a SACK to be sent if the sack blocks need to be shuffled, even if the timer has not expired. A new SNMP counter is added in the following patch. Two other patches add sysctls to allow changing the 1,000,000 and 44 values that this commit hard-coded.

In tcp_select_initial_window(), we only set rcv_wnd to tcp_default_init_rwnd() if current mss > (1 << wscale). Otherwise, rcv_wnd is kept at the full receive space of the socket which is a value way larger than tcp_default_init_rwnd(). With larger initial rcv_wnd value, receive buffer autotuning logic takes longer to kick in and increase the receive buffer. In a TCP throughput test where receiver has rmem[2] set to 125MB (wscale is 11), we see the connection gets recvbuf limited at the beginning of the connection and gets less throughput overall.

2018-02-22tcp_bbr: better deal with suboptimal GSOEric Dumazet1-4/+5
BBR uses tcp_tso_autosize() in an attempt to probe what would be the burst sizes and to adjust cwnd in bbr_target_cwnd() with following gold formula : /* Allow enough full-sized skbs in flight to utilize end systems. */ cwnd += 3 * bbr->tso_segs_goal; But GSO can be lacking or be constrained to very small units (ip link set dev ... gso_max_segs 2) What we really want is to have enough packets in flight so that both GSO and GRO are efficient. So in the case GSO is off or downgraded, we still want to have the same number of packets in flight as if GSO/TSO was fully operational, so that GRO can hopefully be working efficiently. To fix this issue, we make tcp_tso_autosize() unaware of sk->sk_gso_max_segs Only tcp_tso_segs() has to enforce the gso_max_segs limit.

2017-12-13tcp: allow TLP in ECN CWRNeal Cardwell1-6/+3
This patch enables tail loss probe in cwnd reduction (CWR) state to detect potential losses. Prior to this patch, since the sender uses PRR to determine the cwnd in CWR state, the combination of CWR+PRR plus tcp_tso_should_defer() could cause unnecessary stalls upon losses: PRR makes cwnd so gentle that tcp_tso_should_defer() defers sending wait for more ACKs. The ACKs may not come due to packet losses. Disallowing TLP when there is unused cwnd had the primary effect of disallowing TLP when there is TSO deferral, Nagle deferral, or we hit the rwin limit. Because basically every application write() or incoming ACK will cause us to run tcp_write_xmit() to see if we can send more, and then if we sent something we call tcp_schedule_loss_probe() to see if we should schedule a TLP. At that point, there are a few common reasons why some cwnd budget could still be unused: (a) rwin limit (b) nagle check (c) TSO deferral (d) TSQ For (d), after the next packet tx completion the TSQ mechanism will allow us to send more packets, so we don't really need a TLP (in practice it shouldn't matter whether we schedule one or not). But for (a), (b), (c) the sender won't send any more packets until it gets another ACK. But if the whole flight was lost, or all the ACKs were lost, then we won't get any more ACKs, and ideally we should schedule and send a TLP to get more feedback. In particular for a long time we have wanted some kind of timer for TSO deferral, and at least this would give us some kind of timer Reported-by: Steve Ibanez <sibanez@stanford.edu> Signed-off-by: Neal Cardwell <ncardwell@google.com> Signed-off-by: Yuchung Cheng <ycheng@google.com> Reviewed-by: Nandita Dukkipati <nanditad@google.com> Reviewed-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2017-11-19tcp: when scheduling TLP, time of RTO should account for current ACKNeal Cardwell1-3/+5
Fix the TLP scheduling logic so that when scheduling a TLP probe, we ensure that the estimated time at which an RTO would fire accounts for the fact that ACKs indicating forward progress should push back RTO times. After the following fix: df92c8394e6e ("tcp: fix xmit timer to only be reset if data ACKed/SACKed") we had an unintentional behavior change in the following kind of scenario: suppose the RTT variance has been very low recently. Then suppose we send out a flight of N packets and our RTT is 100ms: t=0: send a flight of N packets t=100ms: receive an ACK for N-1 packets The response before df92c8394e6e that was: -> schedule a TLP for now + RTO_interval The response after df92c8394e6e is: -> schedule a TLP for t=0 + RTO_interval Since RTO_interval = srtt + RTT_variance, this means that we have scheduled a TLP timer at a point in the future that only accounts for RTT_variance. If the RTT_variance term is small, this means that the timer fires soon. Before df92c8394e6e this would not happen, because in that code, when we receive an ACK for a prefix of flight, we did: 1) Near the top of tcp_ack(), switch from TLP timer to RTO at write_queue_head->paket_tx_time + RTO_interval: if (icsk->icsk_pending == ICSK_TIME_LOSS_PROBE) tcp_rearm_rto(sk); 2) In tcp_clean_rtx_queue(), update the RTO to now + RTO_interval: if (flag & FLAG_ACKED) { tcp_rearm_rto(sk); 3) In tcp_ack() after tcp_fastretrans_alert() switch from RTO to TLP at now + RTO_interval: if (icsk->icsk_pending == ICSK_TIME_RETRANS) tcp_schedule_loss_probe(sk); In df92c8394e6e we removed that 3-phase dance, and instead directly set the TLP timer once: we set the TLP timer in cases like this to write_queue_head->packet_tx_time + RTO_interval. So if the RTT variance is small, then this means that this is setting the TLP timer to fire quite soon. This means if the ACK for the tail of the flight takes longer than an RTT to arrive (often due to delayed ACKs), then the TLP timer fires too quickly.

2017-11-14tcp: allow drivers to tweak TSQ logicEric Dumazet1-2/+2
I had many reports that TSQ logic breaks wifi aggregation. Current logic is to allow up to 1 ms of bytes to be queued into qdisc and drivers queues. But Wifi aggregation needs a bigger budget to allow bigger rates to be discovered by various TCP Congestion Controls algorithms. This patch adds an extra socket field, allowing wifi drivers to select another log scale to derive TCP Small Queue credit from current pacing rate. Initial value is 10, meaning that this patch does not change current behavior. We expect wifi drivers to set this field to smaller values (tests have been done with values from 6 to 9) They would have to use following template : if (skb->sk && skb->sk->sk_pacing_shift != MY_PACING_SHIFT) skb->sk->sk_pacing_shift = MY_PACING_SHIFT; Ref: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1670041 Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Cc: Toke Høiland-Jørgensen <toke@toke.dk> Cc: Kir Kolyshkin <kir@openvz.org> Acked-by: Neal Cardwell <ncardwell@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
