Soheil Hassas Yeganeh 6b084928ba tcp: use one bit in TCP_SKB_CB to mark ACK timestamps
Currently, to avoid a cache line miss for accessing skb_shinfo,
tcp_ack_tstamp skips socket that do not have
SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_ACK bit set in sk_tsflags. This is
implemented based on an implicit assumption that the
SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_ACK is set via socket options for the
duration that ACK timestamps are needed.

To implement per-write timestamps, this check should be
removed and replaced with a per-packet alternative that
quickly skips packets missing ACK timestamps marks without
a cache-line miss.

To enable per-packet marking without a cache line miss, use
one bit in TCP_SKB_CB to mark a whether a SKB might need a
ack tx timestamp or not. Further checks in tcp_ack_tstamp are not
modified and work as before.

Yuchung Cheng 2349262397 tcp: remove cwnd moderation after recovery
For non-SACK connections, cwnd is lowered to inflight plus 3 packets
when the recovery ends. This is an optional feature in the NewReno
RFC 2582 to reduce the potential burst when cwnd is "re-opened"
after recovery and inflight is low.

This feature is questionably effective because of PRR: when
the recovery ends (i.e., snd_una == high_seq) NewReno holds the
CA_Recovery state for another round trip to prevent false fast
retransmits. But if the inflight is low, PRR will overwrite the
moderated cwnd in tcp_cwnd_reduction() later regardlessly. So if a
receiver responds bogus ACKs (i.e., acking future data) to speed up
transfer after recovery, it can only induce a burst up to a window
worth of data packets by acking up to SND.NXT. A restart from (short)
idle or receiving streched ACKs can both cause such bursts as well.

On the other hand, if the recovery ends because the sender
detects the losses were spurious (e.g., reordering). This feature
unconditionally lowers a reverted cwnd even though nothing
was lost.

By principle loss recovery module should not update cwnd. Further
pacing is much more effective to reduce burst. Hence this patch
removes the cwnd moderation feature.

            missing signature

Martin KaFai Lau a44d6eacda tcp: Add RFC4898 tcpEStatsPerfDataSegsOut/In
Per RFC4898, they count segments sent/received
containing a positive length data segment (that includes
retransmission segments carrying data).  Unlike
tcpi_segs_out/in, tcpi_data_segs_out/in excludes segments
carrying no data (e.g. pure ack).

The patch also updates the segs_in in tcp_fastopen_add_skb()
so that segs_in >= data_segs_in property is kept.

Together with retransmission data, tcpi_data_segs_out
gives a better signal on the rxmit rate.

v6: Rebase on the latest net-next

v5: Eric pointed out that checking skb->len is still needed in
tcp_fastopen_add_skb() because skb can carry a FIN without data.
Hence, instead of open coding segs_in and data_segs_in, tcp_segs_in()
helper is used.  Comment is added to the fastopen case to explain why
segs_in has to be reset and tcp_segs_in() has to be called before
__skb_pull().

v4: Add comment to the changes in tcp_fastopen_add_skb()
and also add remark on this case in the commit message.

v3: Add const modifier to the skb parameter in tcp_segs_in()

v2: Rework based on recent fix by Eric:

Eric Dumazet e3e17b773b tcp: fastopen: call tcp_fin() if FIN present in SYNACK
When we acknowledge a FIN, it is not enough to ack the sequence number
and queue the skb into receive queue. We also have to call tcp_fin()
to properly update socket state and send proper poll() notifications.

It seems we also had the problem if we received a SYN packet with the
FIN flag set, but it does not seem an urgent issue, as no known
implementation can do that.

Eric Dumazet 61d2bcae99 tcp: fastopen: accept data/FIN present in SYNACK message
RFC 7413 (TCP Fast Open) 4.2.2 states that the SYNACK message
MAY include data and/or FIN

This patch adds support for the client side :

If we receive a SYNACK with payload or FIN, queue the skb instead
of ignoring it.

Since we already support the same for SYN, we refactor the existing
code and reuse it. Note we need to clone the skb, so this operation
might fail under memory pressure.

Sara Dickinson pointed out FreeBSD server Fast Open implementation
was planned to generate such SYNACK in the future.

The server side might be implemented on linux later.

Johannes Weiner e805605c72 net: tcp_memcontrol: sanitize tcp memory accounting callbacks
There won't be a tcp control soft limit, so integrating the memcg code
into the global skmem limiting scheme complicates things unnecessarily.
Replace this with simple and clear charge and uncharge calls--hidden
behind a jump label--to account skb memory.

Note that this is not purely aesthetic: as a result of shoehorning the
per-memcg code into the same memory accounting functions that handle the
global level, the old code would compare the per-memcg consumption
against the smaller of the per-memcg limit and the global limit.  This
allowed the total consumption of multiple sockets to exceed the global
limit, as long as the individual sockets stayed within bounds.  After
this change, the code will always compare the per-memcg consumption to
the per-memcg limit, and the global consumption to the global limit, and
thus close this loophole.

Without a soft limit, the per-memcg memory pressure state in sockets is
generally questionable.  However, we did it until now, so we continue to
enter it when the hard limit is hit, and packets are dropped, to let
other sockets in the cgroup know that they shouldn't grow their transmit
windows, either.  However, keep it simple in the new callback model and
leave memory pressure lazily when the next packet is accepted (as
opposed to doing it synchroneously when packets are processed).  When
packets are dropped, network performance will already be in the toilet,
so that should be a reasonable trade-off.

As described above, consumption is now checked on the per-memcg level
and the global level separately.  Likewise, memory pressure states are
maintained on both the per-memcg level and the global level, and a
socket is considered under pressure when either level asserts as much.

Multiple cpus can process duplicates of incoming ACK messages
matching a SYN_RECV request socket. This is a rare event under
normal operations, but definitely can happen.

Only one must win the race, otherwise corruption would occur.

To fix this without adding new atomic ops, we use logic in
inet_ehash_nolisten() to detect the request was present in the same
ehash bucket where we try to insert the new child.

If request socket was not found, we have to undo the child creation.

This actually removes a spin_lock()/spin_unlock() pair in
reqsk_queue_unlink() for the fast path.

Yuchung Cheng 4f41b1c58a tcp: use RACK to detect losses
This patch implements the second half of RACK that uses the the most
recent transmit time among all delivered packets to detect losses.

tcp_rack_mark_lost() is called upon receiving a dubious ACK.
It then checks if an not-yet-sacked packet was sent at least
"reo_wnd" prior to the sent time of the most recently delivered.
If so the packet is deemed lost.

The "reo_wnd" reordering window starts with 1msec for fast loss
detection and changes to min-RTT/4 when reordering is observed.
We found 1msec accommodates well on tiny degree of reordering
(<3 pkts) on faster links. We use min-RTT instead of SRTT because
reordering is more of a path property but SRTT can be inflated by
self-inflicated congestion. The factor of 4 is borrowed from the
delayed early retransmit and seems to work reasonably well.

Since RACK is still experimental, it is now used as a supplemental
loss detection on top of existing algorithms. It is only effective
after the fast recovery starts or after the timeout occurs. The
fast recovery is still triggered by FACK and/or dupack threshold
instead of RACK.

We introduce a new sysctl net.ipv4.tcp_recovery for future
experiments of loss recoveries. For now RACK can be disabled by
setting it to 0.

Yuchung Cheng 659a8ad56f tcp: track the packet timings in RACK
This patch is the first half of the RACK loss recovery.

RACK loss recovery uses the notion of time instead
of packet sequence (FACK) or counts (dupthresh). It's inspired by the
previous FACK heuristic in tcp_mark_lost_retrans(): when a limited
transmit (new data packet) is sacked, then current retransmitted
sequence below the newly sacked sequence must been lost,
since at least one round trip time has elapsed.

But it has several limitations:
1) can't detect tail drops since it depends on limited transmit
2) is disabled upon reordering (assumes no reordering)
3) only enabled in fast recovery ut not timeout recovery

RACK (Recently ACK) addresses these limitations with the notion
of time instead: a packet P1 is lost if a later packet P2 is s/acked,
as at least one round trip has passed.

Since RACK cares about the time sequence instead of the data sequence
of packets, it can detect tail drops when later retransmission is
s/acked while FACK or dupthresh can't. For reordering RACK uses a
dynamically adjusted reordering window ("reo_wnd") to reduce false
positives on ever (small) degree of reordering.

This patch implements tcp_advanced_rack() which tracks the
most recent transmission time among the packets that have been
delivered (ACKed or SACKed) in tp->rack.mstamp. This timestamp
is the key to determine which packet has been lost.

Consider an example that the sender sends six packets:
T1: P1 (lost)
T2: P2
T3: P3
T4: P4
T100: sack of P2. rack.mstamp = T2
T101: retransmit P1
T102: sack of P2,P3,P4. rack.mstamp = T4
T205: ACK of P4 since the hole is repaired. rack.mstamp = T101

We need to be careful about spurious retransmission because it may
falsely advance tp->rack.mstamp by an RTT or an RTO, causing RACK
to falsely mark all packets lost, just like a spurious timeout.

We identify spurious retransmission by the ACK's TS echo value.
If TS option is not applicable but the retransmission is acknowledged
less than min-RTT ago, it is likely to be spurious. We refrain from
using the transmission time of these spurious retransmissions.

The second half is implemented in the next patch that marks packet
lost using RACK timestamp.

Yuchung Cheng f672258391 tcp: track min RTT using windowed min-filter
Kathleen Nichols' algorithm for tracking the minimum RTT of a
data stream over some measurement window. It uses constant space
and constant time per update. Yet it almost always delivers
the same minimum as an implementation that has to keep all
the data in the window. The measurement window is tunable via
sysctl.net.ipv4.tcp_min_rtt_wlen with a default value of 5 minutes.

The algorithm keeps track of the best, 2nd best & 3rd best min
values, maintaining an invariant that the measurement time of
the n'th best >= n-1'th best. It also makes sure that the three
values are widely separated in the time window since that bounds
the worse case error when that data is monotonically increasing
over the window.

Upon getting a new min, we can forget everything earlier because
it has no value - the new min is less than everything else in the
window by definition and it's the most recent. So we restart fresh
on every new min and overwrites the 2nd & 3rd choices. The same
property holds for the 2nd & 3rd best.

Therefore we have to maintain two invariants to maximize the
information in the samples, one on values (1st.v <= 2nd.v <=
3rd.v) and the other on times (now-win <=1st.t <= 2nd.t <= 3rd.t <=
now). These invariants determine the structure of the code

The RTT input to the windowed filter is the minimum RTT measured
from ACK or SACK, or as the last resort from TCP timestamps.

The accessor tcp_min_rtt() returns the minimum RTT seen in the
window. ~0U indicates it is not available. The minimum is 1usec
even if the true RTT is below that.

Eric Dumazet dc6ef6be52 tcp: do not set queue_mapping on SYNACK
At the time of commit fff3269907 ("tcp: reflect SYN queue_mapping into
SYNACK packets") we had little ways to cope with SYN floods.

We no longer need to reflect incoming skb queue mappings, and instead
can pick a TX queue based on cpu cooking the SYNACK, with normal XPS
affinities.

Note that all SYNACK retransmits were picking TX queue 0, this no longer
is a win given that SYNACK rtx are now distributed on all cpus.

Eric Dumazet ca6fb06518 tcp: attach SYNACK messages to request sockets instead of listener
If a listen backlog is very big (to avoid syncookies), then
the listener sk->sk_wmem_alloc is the main source of false
sharing, as we need to touch it twice per SYNACK re-transmit

(One SYN packet takes listener lock once, but up to 6 SYNACK
are generated)

By attaching the skb to the request socket, we remove this
source of contention.

Eric Dumazet 079096f103 tcp/dccp: install syn_recv requests into ehash table
In this patch, we insert request sockets into TCP/DCCP
regular ehash table (where ESTABLISHED and TIMEWAIT sockets
are) instead of using the per listener hash table.

ACK packets find SYN_RECV pseudo sockets without having
to find and lock the listener.

In nominal conditions, this halves pressure on listener lock.

Note that this will allow for SO_REUSEPORT refinements,
so that we can select a listener using cpu/numa affinities instead
of the prior 'consistent hash', since only SYN packets will
apply this selection logic.

We will shrink listen_sock in the following patch to ease
code review.

Eric Dumazet 7c85af8810 tcp: avoid reorders for TFO passive connections
We found that a TCP Fast Open passive connection was vulnerable
to reorders, as the exchange might look like

[1] C -> S S <FO ...> <request>
[2] S -> C S. ack request <options>
[3] S -> C . <answer>

packets [2] and [3] can be generated at almost the same time.

If C receives the 3rd packet before the 2nd, it will drop it as
the socket is in SYN_SENT state and expects a SYNACK.

S will have to retransmit the answer.

Current OOO avoidance in linux is defeated because SYNACK
packets are attached to the LISTEN socket, while DATA packets
are attached to the children. They might be sent by different cpus,
and different TX queues might be selected.

It turns out that for TFO, we created a child, which is a
full blown socket in TCP_SYN_RECV state, and we simply can attach
the SYNACK packet to this socket.

This means that at the time tcp_sendmsg() pushes DATA packet,
skb->ooo_okay will be set iff the SYNACK packet had been sent
and TX completed.

This removes the reorder source at the host level.

We also removed the export of tcp_try_fastopen(), as it is no
longer called from IPv6.

Yuchung Cheng 0f1c28ae74 tcp: usec resolution SYN/ACK RTT
Currently SYN/ACK RTT is measured in jiffies. For LAN the SYN/ACK
RTT is often measured as 0ms or sometimes 1ms, which would affect
RTT estimation and min RTT samping used by some congestion control.

This patch improves SYN/ACK RTT to be usec resolution if platform
supports it. While the timestamping of SYN/ACK is done in request
sock, the RTT measurement is carefully arranged to avoid storing
another u64 timestamp in tcp_sock.

For regular handshake w/o SYNACK retransmission, the RTT is sampled
right after the child socket is created and right before the request
sock is released (tcp_check_req() in tcp_minisocks.c)

For Fast Open the child socket is already created when SYN/ACK was
sent, the RTT is sampled in tcp_rcv_state_process() after processing
the final ACK an right before the request socket is released.

If the SYN/ACK was retransmistted or SYN-cookie was used, we rely
on TCP timestamps to measure the RTT. The sample is taken at the
same place in tcp_rcv_state_process() after the timestamp values
are validated in tcp_validate_incoming(). Note that we do not store
TS echo value in request_sock for SYN-cookies, because the value
is already stored in tp->rx_opt used by tcp_ack_update_rtt().

One side benefit is that the RTT measurement now happens before
initializing congestion control (of the passive side). Therefore
the congestion control can use the SYN/ACK RTT.
