2015-03-08ip: fix error queue empty skb handlingWillem de Bruijn1-10/+23
When reading from the error queue, msg_name and msg_control are only populated for some errors. A new exception for empty timestamp skbs added a false positive on icmp errors without payload. `traceroute -M udpconn` only displayed gateways that return payload with the icmp error: the embedded network headers are pulled before sock_queue_err_skb, leaving an skb with skb->len == 0 otherwise. Fix this regression by refining when msg_name and msg_control branches are taken. The solutions for the two fields are independent. msg_name only makes sense for errors that configure serr->port and serr->addr_offset. Test the first instead of skb->len. This also fixes another issue. saddr could hold the wrong data, as serr->addr_offset is not initialized in some code paths, pointing to the start of the network header. It is only valid when serr->port is set (non-zero). msg_control support differs between IPv4 and IPv6. IPv4 only honors requests for ICMP and timestamps with SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_CMSG. The skb->len test can simply be removed, because skb->dev is also tested and never true for empty skbs. IPv6 honors requests for all errors aside from local errors and timestamps on empty skbs. In both cases, make the policy more explicit by moving this logic to a new function that decides whether to process msg_control and that optionally prepares the necessary fields in skb->cb[]. After this change, the IPv4 and IPv6 paths are more similar. The last case is rxrpc. Here, simply refine to only match timestamps.

2015-03-05tcp: align tcp_xmit_size_goal() on tcp_tso_autosize()Eric Dumazet1-7/+3
With some mss values, it is possible tcp_xmit_size_goal() puts one segment more in TSO packet than tcp_tso_autosize(). We send then one TSO packet followed by one single MSS. It is not a serious bug, but we can do slightly better, especially for drivers using netif_set_gso_max_size() to lower gso_max_size. Using same formula avoids these corner cases and makes tcp_xmit_size_goal() a bit faster.

2015-03-04net: ping: Return EAFNOSUPPORT when appropriate.Lorenzo Colitti1-2/+10
1. For an IPv4 ping socket, ping_check_bind_addr does not check the family of the socket address that's passed in. Instead, make it behave like inet_bind, which enforces either that the address family is AF_INET, or that the family is AF_UNSPEC and the address is 0.0.0.0. 2. For an IPv6 ping socket, ping_check_bind_addr returns EINVAL if the socket family is not AF_INET6. Return EAFNOSUPPORT instead, for consistency with inet6_bind. 3. Make ping_v4_sendmsg and ping_v6_sendmsg return EAFNOSUPPORT instead of EINVAL if an incorrect socket address structure is passed in. 4. Make IPv6 ping sockets be IPv6-only. The code does not support IPv4, and it cannot easily be made to support IPv4 because the protocol numbers for ICMP and ICMPv6 are different. This makes connect(::ffff:192.0.2.1) fail with EAFNOSUPPORT instead of making the socket unusable. Among other things, this fixes an oops that can be triggered by: int s = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, IPPROTO_ICMP); struct sockaddr_in6 sin6 = { .sin6_family = AF_INET6, .sin6_addr = in6addr_any, }; bind(s, (struct sockaddr *) &sin6, sizeof(sin6)); Change-Id: If06ca86d9f1e4593c0d6df174caca3487c57a241 Signed-off-by: Lorenzo Colitti <lorenzo@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2015-03-02udp: only allow UFO for packets from SOCK_DGRAM socketsMichal Kubeček1-1/+2
If an over-MTU UDP datagram is sent through a SOCK_RAW socket to a UFO-capable device, ip_ufo_append_data() sets skb->ip_summed to CHECKSUM_PARTIAL unconditionally as all GSO code assumes transport layer checksum is to be computed on segmentation. However, in this case, skb->csum_start and skb->csum_offset are never set as raw socket transmit path bypasses udp_send_skb() where they are usually set. As a result, driver may access invalid memory when trying to calculate the checksum and store the result (as observed in virtio_net driver). Moreover, the very idea of modifying the userspace provided UDP header is IMHO against raw socket semantics (I wasn't able to find a document clearly stating this or the opposite, though). And while allowing CHECKSUM_NONE in the UFO case would be more efficient, it would be a bit too intrusive change just to handle a corner case like this. Therefore disallowing UFO for packets from SOCK_DGRAM seems to be the best option. Signed-off-by: Michal Kubecek <mkubecek@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2015-02-11net: Fix remcsum in GRO path to not change packetTom Herbert1-10/+10
Remote checksum offload processing is currently the same for both the GRO and non-GRO path. When the remote checksum offload option is encountered, the checksum field referred to is modified in the packet. So in the GRO case, the packet is modified in the GRO path and then the operation is skipped when the packet goes through the normal path based on skb->remcsum_offload. There is a problem in that the packet may be modified in the GRO path, but then forwarded off host still containing the remote checksum option. A remote host will again perform RCO but now the checksum verification will fail since GRO RCO already modified the checksum. To fix this, we ensure that GRO restores a packet to it's original state before returning. In this model, when GRO processes a remote checksum option it still changes the checksum per the algorithm but on return from lower layer processing the checksum is restored to its original value. In this patch we add define gro_remcsum structure which is passed to skb_gro_remcsum_process to save offset and delta for the checksum being changed. After lower layer processing, skb_gro_remcsum_cleanup is called to restore the checksum before returning from GRO. Signed-off-by: Tom Herbert <therbert@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2015-02-11cipso: don't use IPCB() to locate the CIPSO IP optionPaul Moore1-21/+30
Using the IPCB() macro to get the IPv4 options is convenient, but unfortunately NetLabel often needs to examine the CIPSO option outside of the scope of the IP layer in the stack. While historically IPCB() worked above the IP layer, due to the inclusion of the inet_skb_param struct at the head of the {tcp,udp}_skb_cb structs, recent commit 971f10ec ("tcp: better TCP_SKB_CB layout to reduce cache line misses") reordered the tcp_skb_cb struct and invalidated this IPCB() trick. This patch fixes the problem by creating a new function, cipso_v4_optptr(), which locates the CIPSO option inside the IP header without calling IPCB(). Unfortunately, this isn't as fast as a simple lookup so some additional tweaks were made to limit the use of this new function.

2015-02-08net: rfs: add hash collision detectionEric Dumazet1-2/+0
Receive Flow Steering is a nice solution but suffers from hash collisions when a mix of connected and unconnected traffic is received on the host, when flow hash table is populated. Also, clearing flow in inet_release() makes RFS not very good for short lived flows, as many packets can follow close(). (FIN , ACK packets, ...) This patch extends the information stored into global hash table to not only include cpu number, but upper part of the hash value. I use a 32bit value, and dynamically split it in two parts. For host with less than 64 possible cpus, this gives 6 bits for the cpu number, and 26 (32-6) bits for the upper part of the hash. Since hash bucket selection use low order bits of the hash, we have a full hash match, if /proc/sys/net/core/rps_sock_flow_entries is big enough. If the hash found in flow table does not match, we fallback to RPS (if it is enabled for the rxqueue). This means that a packet for an non connected flow can avoid the IPI through a unrelated/victim CPU. This also means we no longer have to clear the table at socket close time, and this helps short lived flows performance.

2015-02-08tcp: helpers to mitigate ACK loops by rate-limiting out-of-window dupacksNeal Cardwell3-0/+14
Helpers for mitigating ACK loops by rate-limiting dupacks sent in response to incoming out-of-window packets. This patch includes: - rate-limiting logic - sysctl to control how often we allow dupacks to out-of-window packets - SNMP counter for cases where we rate-limited our dupack sending The rate-limiting logic in this patch decides to not send dupacks in response to out-of-window segments if (a) they are SYNs or pure ACKs and (b) the remote endpoint is sending them faster than the configured rate limit. We rate-limit our responses rather than blocking them entirely or resetting the connection, because legitimate connections can rely on dupacks in response to some out-of-window segments. For example, zero window probes are typically sent with a sequence number that is below the current window, and ZWPs thus expect to thus elicit a dupack in response. We allow dupacks in response to TCP segments with data, because these may be spurious retransmissions for which the remote endpoint wants to receive DSACKs. This is safe because segments with data can't realistically be part of ACK loops, which by their nature consist of each side sending pure/data-less ACKs to each other. The dupack interval is controlled by a new sysctl knob, tcp_invalid_ratelimit, given in milliseconds, in case an administrator needs to dial this upward in the face of a high-rate DoS attack. The name and units are chosen to be analogous to the existing analogous knob for ICMP, icmp_ratelimit. The default value for tcp_invalid_ratelimit is 500ms, which allows at most one such dupack per 500ms. This is chosen to be 2x faster than the 1-second minimum RTO interval allowed by RFC 6298 (section 2, rule 2.4). We allow the extra 2x factor because network delay variations can cause packets sent at 1 second intervals to be compressed and arrive much closer.

2015-02-04tcp: do not pace pure ack packetsEric Dumazet1-1/+9
When we added pacing to TCP, we decided to let sch_fq take care of actual pacing. All TCP had to do was to compute sk->pacing_rate using simple formula: sk->pacing_rate = 2 * cwnd * mss / rtt It works well for senders (bulk flows), but not very well for receivers or even RPC : cwnd on the receiver can be less than 10, rtt can be around 100ms, so we can end up pacing ACK packets, slowing down the sender. Really, only the sender should pace, according to its own logic. Instead of adding a new bit in skb, or call yet another flow dissection, we tweak skb->truesize to a small value (2), and we instruct sch_fq to use new helper and not pace pure ack. Note this also helps TCP small queue, as ack packets present in qdisc/NIC do not prevent sending a data packet (RPC workload) This helps to reduce tx completion overhead, ack packets can use regular sock_wfree() instead of tcp_wfree() which is a bit more expensive. This has no impact in the case packets are sent to loopback interface, as we do not coalesce ack packets (were we would detect skb->truesize lie) In case netem (with a delay) is used, skb_orphan_partial() also sets skb->truesize to 1.

2015-02-04ip: convert tcp_sendmsg() to iov_iter primitivesAl Viro3-131/+115
patch is actually smaller than it seems to be - most of it is unindenting the inner loop body in tcp_sendmsg() itself... the bit in tcp_input.c is going to get reverted very soon - that's what memcpy_from_msg() will become, but not in this commit; let's keep it reasonably contained... There's one potentially subtle change here: in case of short copy from userland, mainline tcp_send_syn_data() discards the skb it has allocated and falls back to normal path, where we'll send as much as possible after rereading the same data again. This patch trims SYN+data skb instead - that way we don't need to copy from the same place twice. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2015-02-02net: dctcp: loosen requirement to assert ECT(0) during 3WHSFlorian Westphal1-9/+5
One deployment requirement of DCTCP is to be able to run in a DC setting along with TCP traffic. As Glenn Judd's NSDI'15 paper "Attaining the Promise and Avoiding the Pitfalls of TCP in the Datacenter" [1] (tba) explains, one way to solve this on switch side is to split DCTCP and TCP traffic in two queues per switch port based on the DSCP: one queue soley intended for DCTCP traffic and one for non-DCTCP traffic. For the DCTCP queue, there's the marking threshold K as explained in commit e3118e8359bb ("net: tcp: add DCTCP congestion control algorithm") for RED marking ECT(0) packets with CE. For the non-DCTCP queue, there's f.e. a classic tail drop queue. As already explained in e3118e8359bb, running DCTCP at scale when not marking SYN/SYN-ACK packets with ECT(0) has severe consequences as for non-ECT(0) packets, traversing the RED marking DCTCP queue will result in a severe reduction of connection probability. This is due to the DCTCP queue being dominated by ECT(0) traffic and switches handle non-ECT traffic in the RED marking queue after passing K as drops, where K is usually a low watermark in order to leave enough tailroom for bursts. Splitting DCTCP traffic among several queues (ECN and non-ECN queue) is being considered a terrible idea in the network community as it splits single flows across multiple network paths. Therefore, commit e3118e8359bb implements this on Linux as ECT(0) marked traffic, as we argue that marking all packets of a DCTCP flow is the only viable solution and also doesn't speak against the draft. However, recently, a DCTCP implementation for FreeBSD hit also their mainline kernel [2]. In order to let them play well together with Linux' DCTCP, we would need to loosen the requirement that ECT(0) has to be asserted during the 3WHS as not implemented in FreeBSD. This simplifies the ECN test and lets DCTCP work together with FreeBSD. Joint work with Daniel Borkmann.

Add timestamping option SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_TSONLY. For transmit timestamps, this loops timestamps on top of empty packets. Doing so reduces the pressure on SO_RCVBUF. Payload inspection and cmsg reception (aside from timestamps) are no longer possible. This works together with a follow on patch that allows administrators to only allow tx timestamping if it does not loop payload or metadata.

2015-02-01ipv4: tcp: get rid of ugly unicast_sockEric Dumazet2-32/+35
In commit be9f4a44e7d41 ("ipv4: tcp: remove per net tcp_sock") I tried to address contention on a socket lock, but the solution I chose was horrible : commit 3a7c384ffd57e ("ipv4: tcp: unicast_sock should not land outside of TCP stack") addressed a selinux regression. commit 0980e56e506b ("ipv4: tcp: set unicast_sock uc_ttl to -1") took care of another regression. commit b5ec8eeac46 ("ipv4: fix ip_send_skb()") fixed another regression. commit 811230cd85 ("tcp: ipv4: initialize unicast_sock sk_pacing_rate") was another shot in the dark. Really, just use a proper socket per cpu, and remove the skb_orphan() call, to re-enable flow control. This solves a serious problem with FQ packet scheduler when used in hostile environments, as we do not want to allocate a flow structure for every RST packet sent in response to a spoofed packet.

2015-01-28tcp: fix timing issue in CUBIC slope calculationNeal Cardwell1-0/+8
This patch fixes a bug in CUBIC that causes cwnd to increase slightly too slowly when multiple ACKs arrive in the same jiffy. If cwnd is supposed to increase at a rate of more than once per jiffy, then CUBIC was sometimes too slow. Because the bic_target is calculated for a future point in time, calculated with time in jiffies, the cwnd can increase over the course of the jiffy while the bic_target calculated as the proper CUBIC cwnd at time t=tcp_time_stamp+rtt does not increase, because tcp_time_stamp only increases on jiffy tick boundaries. So since the cnt is set to: ca->cnt = cwnd / (bic_target - cwnd); as cwnd increases but bic_target does not increase due to jiffy granularity, the cnt becomes too large, causing cwnd to increase too slowly. For example: - suppose at the beginning of a jiffy, cwnd=40, bic_target=44 - so CUBIC sets: ca->cnt = cwnd / (bic_target - cwnd) = 40 / (44 - 40) = 40/4 = 10 - suppose we get 10 acks, each for 1 segment, so tcp_cong_avoid_ai() increases cwnd to 41 - so CUBIC sets: ca->cnt = cwnd / (bic_target - cwnd) = 41 / (44 - 41) = 41 / 3 = 13 So now CUBIC will wait for 13 packets to be ACKed before increasing cwnd to 42, insted of 10 as it should. The fix is to avoid adjusting the slope (determined by ca->cnt) multiple times within a jiffy, and instead skip to compute the Reno cwnd, the "TCP friendliness" code path.

tcp_cong_avoid_ai() was too timid (snd_cwnd increased too slowly) on "stretch ACKs" -- cases where the receiver ACKed more than 1 packet in a single ACK. For example, suppose w is 10 and we get a stretch ACK for 20 packets, so acked is 20. We ought to increase snd_cwnd by 2 (since acked/w = 20/10 = 2), but instead we were only increasing cwnd by 1.

2015-01-28tcp: stretch ACK fixes prepNeal Cardwell6-9/+13
LRO, GRO, delayed ACKs, and middleboxes can cause "stretch ACKs" that cover more than the RFC-specified maximum of 2 packets. These stretch ACKs can cause serious performance shortfalls in common congestion control algorithms that were designed and tuned years ago with receiver hosts that were not using LRO or GRO, and were instead politely ACKing every other packet. This patch series fixes Reno and CUBIC to handle stretch ACKs. This patch prepares for the upcoming stretch ACK bug fix patches. It adds an "acked" parameter to tcp_cong_avoid_ai() to allow for future fixes to tcp_cong_avoid_ai() to correctly handle stretch ACKs, and changes all congestion control algorithms to pass in 1 for the ACKed count. It also changes tcp_slow_start() to return the number of packet ACK "credits" that were not processed in slow start mode, and can be processed by the congestion control module in additive increase mode. In future patches we will fix tcp_cong_avoid_ai() to handle stretch ACKs, and fix Reno and CUBIC handling of stretch ACKs in slow start and additive increase mode.
