2019-04-27netlink: make validation more configurable for future strictnessJohannes Berg1-1/+2
We currently have two levels of strict validation: 1) liberal (default) - undefined (type >= max) & NLA_UNSPEC attributes accepted - attribute length >= expected accepted - garbage at end of message accepted 2) strict (opt-in) - NLA_UNSPEC attributes accepted - attribute length >= expected accepted Split out parsing strictness into four different options: * TRAILING - check that there's no trailing data after parsing attributes (in message or nested) * MAXTYPE - reject attrs > max known type * UNSPEC - reject attributes with NLA_UNSPEC policy entries * STRICT_ATTRS - strictly validate attribute size The default for future things should be *everything*. The current *_strict() is a combination of TRAILING and MAXTYPE, and is renamed to _deprecated_strict(). The current regular parsing has none of this, and is renamed to *_parse_deprecated(). Additionally it allows us to selectively set one of the new flags even on old policies. Notably, the UNSPEC flag could be useful in this case, since it can be arranged (by filling in the policy) to not be an incompatible userspace ABI change, but would then going forward prevent forgetting attribute entries. Similar can apply to the POLICY flag. We end up with the following renames: * nla_parse -> nla_parse_deprecated * nla_parse_strict -> nla_parse_deprecated_strict * nlmsg_parse -> nlmsg_parse_deprecated * nlmsg_parse_strict -> nlmsg_parse_deprecated_strict * nla_parse_nested -> nla_parse_nested_deprecated * nla_validate_nested -> nla_validate_nested_deprecated Using spatch, of course: @@ expression TB, MAX, HEAD, LEN, POL, EXT; @@ -nla_parse(TB, MAX, HEAD, LEN, POL, EXT) +nla_parse_deprecated(TB, MAX, HEAD, LEN, POL, EXT) @@ expression NLH, HDRLEN, TB, MAX, POL, EXT; @@ -nlmsg_parse(NLH, HDRLEN, TB, MAX, POL, EXT) +nlmsg_parse_deprecated(NLH, HDRLEN, TB, MAX, POL, EXT) @@ expression NLH, HDRLEN, TB, MAX, POL, EXT; @@ -nlmsg_parse_strict(NLH, HDRLEN, TB, MAX, POL, EXT) +nlmsg_parse_deprecated_strict(NLH, HDRLEN, TB, MAX, POL, EXT) @@ expression TB, MAX, NLA, POL, EXT; @@ -nla_parse_nested(TB, MAX, NLA, POL, EXT) +nla_parse_nested_deprecated(TB, MAX, NLA, POL, EXT) @@ expression START, MAX, POL, EXT; @@ -nla_validate_nested(START, MAX, POL, EXT) +nla_validate_nested_deprecated(START, MAX, POL, EXT) @@ expression NLH, HDRLEN, MAX, POL, EXT; @@ -nlmsg_validate(NLH, HDRLEN, MAX, POL, EXT) +nlmsg_validate_deprecated(NLH, HDRLEN, MAX, POL, EXT) For this patch, don't actually add the strict, non-renamed versions yet so that it breaks compile if I get it wrong.

2019-04-27netlink: make nla_nest_start() add NLA_F_NESTED flagMichal Kubecek1-5/+5
Even if the NLA_F_NESTED flag was introduced more than 11 years ago, most netlink based interfaces (including recently added ones) are still not setting it in kernel generated messages. Without the flag, message parsers not aware of attribute semantics (e.g. wireshark dissector or libmnl's mnl_nlmsg_fprintf()) cannot recognize nested attributes and won't display the structure of their contents. Unfortunately we cannot just add the flag everywhere as there may be userspace applications which check nlattr::nla_type directly rather than through a helper masking out the flags. Therefore the patch renames nla_nest_start() to nla_nest_start_noflag() and introduces nla_nest_start() as a wrapper adding NLA_F_NESTED. The calls which add NLA_F_NESTED manually are rewritten to use nla_nest_start(). Except for changes in include/net/netlink.h, the patch was generated using this semantic patch: @@ expression E1, E2; @@ -nla_nest_start(E1, E2) +nla_nest_start_noflag(E1, E2) @@ expression E1, E2; @@ -nla_nest_start_noflag(E1, E2 | NLA_F_NESTED) +nla_nest_start(E1, E2) Signed-off-by: Michal Kubecek <mkubecek@suse.cz> Acked-by: Jiri Pirko <jiri@mellanox.com> Acked-by: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2019-03-15sch_cake: Interpret fwmark parameter as a bitmaskToke Høiland-Jørgensen1-13/+12
We initially interpreted the fwmark parameter as a flag that simply turned on the feature, using the whole skb->mark field as the index into the CAKE tin_order array. However, it is quite common for different applications to use different parts of the mask field for their own purposes, each using a different mask. Support this use of subsets of the mark by interpreting the TCA_CAKE_FWMARK parameter as a bitmask to apply to the fwmark field when reading it. The result will be right-shifted by the number of unset lower bits of the mask before looking up the tin. In the original commit message we also failed to credit Felix Resch with originally suggesting the fwmark feature back in 2017; so the Suggested-By in this commit covers the whole fwmark feature.

2019-03-03sch_cake: Permit use of connmarks as tin classifiersKevin Darbyshire-Bryant1-7/+27
Add flag 'FWMARK' to enable use of firewall connmarks as tin selector. The connmark (skbuff->mark) needs to be in the range 1->tin_cnt ie. for diffserv3 the mark needs to be 1->3. Background Typically CAKE uses DSCP as the basis for tin selection. DSCP values are relatively easily changed as part of the egress path, usually with iptables & the mangle table, ingress is more challenging. CAKE is often used on the WAN interface of a residential gateway where passthrough of DSCP from the ISP is either missing or set to unhelpful values thus use of ingress DSCP values for tin selection isn't helpful in that environment. An approach to solving the ingress tin selection problem is to use CAKE's understanding of tc filters. Naive tc filters could match on source/destination port numbers and force tin selection that way, but multiple filters don't scale particularly well as each filter must be traversed whether it matches or not. e.g. a simple example to map 3 firewall marks to tins: MAJOR=$( tc qdisc show dev $DEV | head -1 | awk '{print $3}' ) tc filter add dev $DEV parent $MAJOR protocol all handle 0x01 fw action skbedit priority ${MAJOR}1 tc filter add dev $DEV parent $MAJOR protocol all handle 0x02 fw action skbedit priority ${MAJOR}2 tc filter add dev $DEV parent $MAJOR protocol all handle 0x03 fw action skbedit priority ${MAJOR}3 Another option is to use eBPF cls_act with tc filters e.g. MAJOR=$( tc qdisc show dev $DEV | head -1 | awk '{print $3}' ) tc filter add dev $DEV parent $MAJOR bpf da obj my-bpf-fwmark-to-class.o This has the disadvantages of a) needing someone to write & maintain the bpf program, b) a bpf toolchain to compile it and c) needing to hardcode the major number in the bpf program so it matches the cake instance (or forcing the cake instance to a particular major number) since the major number cannot be passed to the bpf program via tc command line. As already hinted at by the previous examples, it would be helpful to associate tins with something that survives the Internet path and ideally allows tin selection on both egress and ingress. Netfilter's conntrack permits setting an identifying mark on a connection which can also be restored to an ingress packet with tc action connmark e.g. tc filter add dev eth0 parent ffff: protocol all prio 10 u32 \ match u32 0 0 flowid 1:1 action connmark action mirred egress redirect dev ifb1 Since tc's connmark action has restored any connmark into skb->mark, any of the previous solutions are based upon it and in one form or another copy that mark to the skb->priority field where again CAKE picks this up. This change cuts out at least one of the (less intuitive & non-scalable) middlemen and permit direct access to skb->mark.

2019-03-03sch_cake: Make the dual modes fairerGeorge Amanakis1-29/+63
CAKE host fairness does not work well with TCP flows in dual-srchost and dual-dsthost setup. The reason is that ACKs generated by TCP flows are classified as sparse flows, and affect flow isolation from other hosts. Fix this by calculating host_load based only on the bulk flows a host generates. In a hash collision the host_bulk_flow_count values must be decremented on the old hosts and incremented on the new ones *if* the queue is in the bulk set.

2018-08-22sch_cake: Fix TC filter flow override and expand it to hosts as wellToke Høiland-Jørgensen1-4/+19
The TC filter flow mapping override completely skipped the call to cake_hash(); however that meant that the internal state was not being updated, which ultimately leads to deadlocks in some configurations. Fix that by passing the overridden flow ID into cake_hash() instead so it can react appropriately. In addition, the major number of the class ID can now be set to override the host mapping in host isolation mode. If both host and flow are overridden (or if the respective modes are disabled), flow dissection and hashing will be skipped entirely; otherwise, the hashing will be kept for the portions that are not set by the filter.

2018-07-10sch_cake: Conditionally split GSO segmentsToke Høiland-Jørgensen1-26/+73
At lower bandwidths, the transmission time of a single GSO segment can add an unacceptable amount of latency due to HOL blocking. Furthermore, with a software shaper, any tuning mechanism employed by the kernel to control the maximum size of GSO segments is thrown off by the artificial limit on bandwidth. For this reason, we split GSO segments into their individual packets iff the shaper is active and configured to a bandwidth <= 1 Gbps.

2018-07-10sch_cake: Add overhead compensation support to the rate shaperToke Høiland-Jørgensen1-1/+123
This commit adds configurable overhead compensation support to the rate shaper. With this feature, userspace can configure the actual bottleneck link overhead and encapsulation mode used, which will be used by the shaper to calculate the precise duration of each packet on the wire. This feature is needed because CAKE is often deployed one or two hops upstream of the actual bottleneck (which can be, e.g., inside a DSL or cable modem). In this case, the link layer characteristics and overhead reported by the kernel does not match the actual bottleneck. Being able to set the actual values in use makes it possible to configure the shaper rate much closer to the actual bottleneck rate (our experience shows it is possible to get with 0.1% of the actual physical bottleneck rate), thus keeping latency low without sacrificing bandwidth. The overhead compensation has three tunables: A fixed per-packet overhead size (which, if set, will be accounted from the IP packet header), a minimum packet size (MPU) and a framing mode supporting either ATM or PTM framing. We include a set of common keywords in TC to help users configure the right parameters. If no overhead value is set, the value reported by the kernel is used.

2018-07-10sch_cake: Add DiffServ handlingToke Høiland-Jørgensen1-16/+423
This adds support for DiffServ-based priority queueing to CAKE. If the shaper is in use, each priority tier gets its own virtual clock, which limits that tier's rate to a fraction of the overall shaped rate, to discourage trying to game the priority mechanism. CAKE defaults to a simple, three-tier mode that interprets most code points as "best effort", but places CS1 traffic into a low-priority "bulk" tier which is assigned 1/16 of the total rate, and a few code points indicating latency-sensitive or control traffic (specifically TOS4, VA, EF, CS6, CS7) into a "latency sensitive" high-priority tier, which is assigned 1/4 rate. The other supported DiffServ modes are a 4-tier mode matching the 802.11e precedence rules, as well as two 8-tier modes, one of which implements strict precedence of the eight priority levels. This commit also adds an optional DiffServ 'wash' mode, which will zero out the DSCP fields of any packet passing through CAKE. While this can technically be done with other mechanisms in the kernel, having the feature available in CAKE significantly decreases configuration complexity; and the implementation cost is low on top of the other DiffServ-handling code. Filters and applications can set the skb->priority field to override the DSCP-based classification into tiers. If TC_H_MAJ(skb->priority) matches CAKE's qdisc handle, the minor number will be interpreted as a priority tier if it is less than or equal to the number of configured priority tiers.

2018-07-10sch_cake: Add NAT awareness to packet classifierToke Høiland-Jørgensen1-2/+49
When CAKE is deployed on a gateway that also performs NAT (which is a common deployment mode), the host fairness mechanism cannot distinguish internal hosts from each other, and so fails to work correctly. To fix this, we add an optional NAT awareness mode, which will query the kernel conntrack mechanism to obtain the pre-NAT addresses for each packet and use that in the flow and host hashing. When the shaper is enabled and the host is already performing NAT, the cost of this lookup is negligible. However, in unlimited mode with no NAT being performed, there is a significant CPU cost at higher bandwidths. For this reason, the feature is turned off by default.

2018-07-10sch_cake: Add optional ACK filterToke Høiland-Jørgensen1-2/+452
The ACK filter is an optional feature of CAKE which is designed to improve performance on links with very asymmetrical rate limits. On such links (which are unfortunately quite prevalent, especially for DSL and cable subscribers), the downstream throughput can be limited by the number of ACKs capable of being transmitted in the *upstream* direction. Filtering ACKs can, in general, have adverse effects on TCP performance because it interferes with ACK clocking (especially in slow start), and it reduces the flow's resiliency to ACKs being dropped further along the path. To alleviate these drawbacks, the ACK filter in CAKE tries its best to always keep enough ACKs queued to ensure forward progress in the TCP flow being filtered. It does this by only filtering redundant ACKs. In its default 'conservative' mode, the filter will always keep at least two redundant ACKs in the queue, while in 'aggressive' mode, it will filter down to a single ACK. The ACK filter works by inspecting the per-flow queue on every packet enqueue. Starting at the head of the queue, the filter looks for another eligible packet to drop (so the ACK being dropped is always closer to the head of the queue than the packet being enqueued). An ACK is eligible only if it ACKs *fewer* bytes than the new packet being enqueued, including any SACK options. This prevents duplicate ACKs from being filtered, to avoid interfering with retransmission logic. In addition, we check TCP header options and only drop those that are known to not interfere with sender state. In particular, packets with unknown option codes are never dropped. In aggressive mode, an eligible packet is always dropped, while in conservative mode, at least two ACKs are kept in the queue. Only pure ACKs (with no data segments) are considered eligible for dropping, but when an ACK with data segments is enqueued, this can cause another pure ACK to become eligible for dropping. The approach described above ensures that this ACK filter avoids most of the drawbacks of a naive filtering mechanism that only keeps flow state but does not inspect the queue. This is the rationale for including the ACK filter in CAKE itself rather than as separate module (as the TC filter, for instance). Our performance evaluation has shown that on a 30/1 Mbps link with a bidirectional traffic test (RRUL), turning on the ACK filter on the upstream link improves downstream throughput by ~20% (both modes) and upstream throughput by ~12% in conservative mode and ~40% in aggressive mode, at the cost of ~5ms of inter-flow latency due to the increased congestion. In *really* pathological cases, the effect can be a lot more; for instance, the ACK filter increases the achievable downstream throughput on a link with 100 Kbps in the upstream direction by an order of magnitude (from ~2.5 Mbps to ~25 Mbps). Finally, even though we consider the ACK filter to be safer than most, we do not recommend turning it on everywhere: on more symmetrical link bandwidths the effect is negligible at best.

2018-07-10sch_cake: Add ingress modeToke Høiland-Jørgensen1-4/+83
The ingress mode is meant to be enabled when CAKE runs downlink of the actual bottleneck (such as on an IFB device). The mode changes the shaper to also account dropped packets to the shaped rate, as these have already traversed the bottleneck. Enabling ingress mode will also tune the AQM to always keep at least two packets queued *for each flow*. This is done by scaling the minimum queue occupancy level that will disable the AQM by the number of active bulk flows. The rationale for this is that retransmits are more expensive in ingress mode, since dropped packets have to traverse the bottleneck again when they are retransmitted; thus, being more lenient and keeping a minimum number of packets queued will improve throughput in cases where the number of active flows are so large that they saturate the bottleneck even at their minimum window size. This commit also adds a separate switch to enable ingress mode rate autoscaling. If enabled, the autoscaling code will observe the actual traffic rate and adjust the shaper rate to match it. This can help avoid latency increases in the case where the actual bottleneck rate decreases below the shaped rate. The scaling filters out spikes by an EWMA filter.

2018-07-10sched: Add Common Applications Kept Enhanced (cake) qdiscToke Høiland-Jørgensen1-0/+1867
sch_cake targets the home router use case and is intended to squeeze the most bandwidth and latency out of even the slowest ISP links and routers, while presenting an API simple enough that even an ISP can configure it. Example of use on a cable ISP uplink: tc qdisc add dev eth0 cake bandwidth 20Mbit nat docsis ack-filter To shape a cable download link (ifb and tc-mirred setup elided) tc qdisc add dev ifb0 cake bandwidth 200mbit nat docsis ingress wash CAKE is filled with: * A hybrid Codel/Blue AQM algorithm, "Cobalt", tied to an FQ_Codel derived Flow Queuing system, which autoconfigures based on the bandwidth. * A novel "triple-isolate" mode (the default) which balances per-host and per-flow FQ even through NAT. * An deficit based shaper, that can also be used in an unlimited mode. * 8 way set associative hashing to reduce flow collisions to a minimum. * A reasonable interpretation of various diffserv latency/loss tradeoffs. * Support for zeroing diffserv markings for entering and exiting traffic. * Support for interacting well with Docsis 3.0 shaper framing. * Extensive support for DSL framing types. * Support for ack filtering. * Extensive statistics for measuring, loss, ecn markings, latency variation. A paper describing the design of CAKE is available at https://arxiv.org/abs/1804.07617, and will be published at the 2018 IEEE International Symposium on Local and Metropolitan Area Networks (LANMAN). This patch adds the base shaper and packet scheduler, while subsequent commits add the optional (configurable) features. The full userspace API and most data structures are included in this commit, but options not understood in the base version will be ignored. Various versions baking have been available as an out of tree build for kernel versions going back to 3.10, as the embedded router world has been running a few years behind mainline Linux. A stable version has been generally available on lede-17.01 and later. sch_cake replaces a combination of iptables, tc filter, htb and fq_codel in the sqm-scripts, with sane defaults and vastly simpler configuration. CAKE's principal author is Jonathan Morton, with contributions from Kevin Darbyshire-Bryant, Toke Høiland-Jørgensen, Sebastian Moeller, Ryan Mounce, Tony Ambardar, Dean Scarff, Nils Andreas Svee, Dave Täht, and Loganaden Velvindron. Testing from Pete Heist, Georgios Amanakis, and the many other members of the cake@lists.bufferbloat.net mailing list. tc -s qdisc show dev eth2 qdisc cake 8017: root refcnt 2 bandwidth 1Gbit diffserv3 triple-isolate split-gso rtt 100.0ms noatm overhead 38 mpu 84 Sent 51504294511 bytes 37724591 pkt (dropped 6, overlimits 64958695 requeues 12) backlog 0b 0p requeues 12 memory used: 1053008b of 15140Kb capacity estimate: 970Mbit min/max network layer size: 28 / 1500 min/max overhead-adjusted size: 84 / 1538 average network hdr offset: 14 Bulk Best Effort Voice thresh 62500Kbit 1Gbit 250Mbit target 5.0ms 5.0ms 5.0ms interval 100.0ms 100.0ms 100.0ms pk_delay 5us 5us 6us av_delay 3us 2us 2us sp_delay 2us 1us 1us backlog 0b 0b 0b pkts 3164050 25030267 9530280 bytes 3227519915 35396974782 12879808898 way_inds 0 8 0 way_miss 21 366 25 way_cols 0 0 0 drops 5 0 1 marks 0 0 0 ack_drop 0 0 0 sp_flows 1 3 0 bk_flows 0 1 1 un_flows 0 0 0 max_len 68130 68130 68130 Tested-by: Pete Heist <peteheist@gmail.com> Tested-by: Georgios Amanakis <gamanakis@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Dave Taht <dave.taht@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Toke Høiland-Jørgensen <toke@toke.dk> Signed-off-by: David S.
