Eric Dumazet 0bbd7dad34 tun: make tun_build_skb() thread safe
tun_build_skb() is not thread safe since it uses per queue page frag,
this will break things when multiple threads are sending through same
queue. Switch to use per-thread generator (no lock involved).

As Jamal pointed out, there is actually no need to call dequeue
to purge the queued skb's in reset, data structures can be just
reset explicitly. Therefore, we reset everything except config's
and stats, so that we would have a fresh start after device flipping.

Bug occurs because __tcp_checksum_complete_user() enables BH, assuming
it is running from softirq context.

Lars trace involved a NIC without RX checksum support but other points
are problematic as well, like the prequeue stuff.

Problem is triggered by a timer, that found socket being owned by user.

tcp_release_cb() should call tcp_write_timer_handler() or
tcp_delack_timer_handler() in the appropriate context :

BH disabled and socket lock held, but 'owned' field cleared,
as if they were running from timer handlers.

Eric Dumazet b0983d3c9b tcp: fix dynamic right sizing
Dynamic Right Sizing (DRS) is supposed to open TCP receive window
automatically, but suffers from two bugs, presented by order
of importance.

1) tcp_rcv_space_adjust() fix :

Using twice the last received amount is very pessimistic,
because it doesn't allow fast recovery or proper slow start
ramp up, if sender wants to increase cwin by 100% every RTT.

copied = bytes received in previous RTT

2*copied = bytes we expect to receive in next RTT

4*copied = bytes we need to advertise in rwin at end of next RTT

DRS is one RTT late, it needs a 4x factor.

If sender is not using ABC, and increases cwin by 50% every rtt,
then we needed 1.5*1.5 = 2.25 factor.
This is probably why this bug was not really noticed.

2) There is no window adjustment after first RTT. DRS triggers only
  after the second RTT.
  DRS needs two RTT to initialize, so tcp_fixup_rcvbuf() should setup
  sk_rcvbuf to allow proper window grow for first two RTT.

This patch increases TCP efficiency particularly for large RTT flows
when autotuning is used at the receiver, and more particularly
in presence of packet losses.

Eric Dumazet c9ab4d85de neighbour: fix a race in neigh_destroy()
There is a race in neighbour code, because neigh_destroy() uses
skb_queue_purge(&neigh->arp_queue) without holding neighbour lock,
while other parts of the code assume neighbour rwlock is what
protects arp_queue

Convert all skb_queue_purge() calls to the __skb_queue_purge() variant

Use __skb_queue_head_init() instead of skb_queue_head_init()
to make clear we do not use arp_queue.lock

And hold neigh->lock in neigh_destroy() to close the race.

Eric Dumazet 51151a16a6 mlx4: allow order-0 memory allocations in RX path
Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>

mlx4 exclusively uses order-2 allocations in RX path, which are
likely to fail under memory pressure.

We therefore drop frames more than needed.

This patch tries order-3, order-2, order-1 and finally order-0
allocations to keep good performance, yet allow allocations if/when
memory gets fragmented.

By using larger pages, and avoiding unnecessary get_page()/put_page()
on compound pages, this patch improves performance as well, lowering
false sharing on struct page.

Also use GFP_KERNEL allocations in initialization path, as allocating 12
MB (390 order-3 pages) can easily fail with GFP_ATOMIC.

Eric Dumazet c87a124a5d net: force a reload of first item in hlist_nulls_for_each_entry_rcu
Roman Gushchin discovered that udp4_lib_lookup2() was not reloading
first item in the rcu protected list, in case the loop was restarted.

This produced soft lockups as in https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/4/16/37

rcu_dereference(X)/ACCESS_ONCE(X) seem to not work as intended if X is
ptr->field :

In some cases, gcc caches the value or ptr->field in a register.

Use a barrier() to disallow such caching, as documented in
Documentation/atomic_ops.txt line 114

Thanks a lot to Roman for providing analysis and numerous patches.

Eric Dumazet 60bc851ae5 af_unix: fix a fatal race with bit fields
Using bit fields is dangerous on ppc64/sparc64, as the compiler [1]
uses 64bit instructions to manipulate them.
If the 64bit word includes any atomic_t or spinlock_t, we can lose
critical concurrent changes.

This is happening in af_unix, where unix_sk(sk)->gc_candidate/
gc_maybe_cycle/lock share the same 64bit word.

This leads to fatal deadlock, as one/several cpus spin forever
on a spinlock that will never be available again.

A safer way would be to use a long to store flags.
This way we are sure compiler/arch wont do bad things.

As we own unix_gc_lock spinlock when clearing or setting bits,
we can use the non atomic __set_bit()/__clear_bit().

recursion_level can share the same 64bit location with the spinlock,
as it is set only with this spinlock held.

Eric Dumazet 54764bb647 ipv4: Restore old dst_free() behavior.
commit 404e0a8b6a (net: ipv4: fix RCU races on dst refcounts) tried
to solve a race but added a problem at device/fib dismantle time :

We really want to call dst_free() as soon as possible, even if sockets
still have dst in their cache.
dst_release() calls in free_fib_info_rcu() are not welcomed.

Root of the problem was that now we also cache output routes (in
nh_rth_output), we must use call_rcu() instead of call_rcu_bh() in
rt_free(), because output route lookups are done in process context.

Based on feedback and initial patch from David Miller (adding another
call_rcu_bh() call in fib, but it appears it was not the right fix)

I left the inet_sk_rx_dst_set() helper and added __rcu attributes
to nh_rth_output and nh_rth_input to better document what is going on in
this code.

Eric Dumazet 46d3ceabd8 tcp: TCP Small Queues
This introduce TSQ (TCP Small Queues)

TSQ goal is to reduce number of TCP packets in xmit queues (qdisc &
device queues), to reduce RTT and cwnd bias, part of the bufferbloat
problem.

sk->sk_wmem_alloc not allowed to grow above a given limit,
allowing no more than ~128KB [1] per tcp socket in qdisc/dev layers at a
given time.

TSO packets are sized/capped to half the limit, so that we have two
TSO packets in flight, allowing better bandwidth use.

As a side effect, setting the limit to 40000 automatically reduces the
standard gso max limit (65536) to 40000/2 : It can help to reduce
latencies of high prio packets, having smaller TSO packets.

This means we divert sock_wfree() to a tcp_wfree() handler, to
queue/send following frames when skb_orphan() [2] is called for the
already queued skbs.

Results on my dev machines (tg3/ixgbe nics) are really impressive,
using standard pfifo_fast, and with or without TSO/GSO.

Without reduction of nominal bandwidth, we have reduction of buffering
per bulk sender :
< 1ms on Gbit (instead of 50ms with TSO)
< 8ms on 100Mbit (instead of 132 ms)

I no longer have 4 MBytes backlogged in qdisc by a single netperf
session, and both side socket autotuning no longer use 4 Mbytes.

As skb destructor cannot restart xmit itself ( as qdisc lock might be
taken at this point ), we delegate the work to a tasklet. We use one
tasklest per cpu for performance reasons.

If tasklet finds a socket owned by the user, it sets TSQ_OWNED flag.
This flag is tested in a new protocol method called from release_sock(),
to eventually send new segments.

[1] New /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_limit_output_bytes tunable
[2] skb_orphan() is usually called at TX completion time,
  but some drivers call it in their start_xmit() handler.
  These drivers should at least use BQL, or else a single TCP
  session can still fill the whole NIC TX ring, since TSQ will
  have no effect.

Eric Dumazet ed90542b0c iwlwifi: fix skb truesize underestimation
By default, iwlwifi uses order-1 pages (8 KB) to store incoming frames,
but doesnt say so in skb->truesize.

This makes very possible to exhaust kernel memory since these skb evade
normal socket memory accounting.

As struct ieee80211_hdr is going to be pulled before calling IP stack,
there is no need to use dev_alloc_skb() to reserve NET_SKB_PAD bytes.
alloc_skb() is ok in this driver, allowing more tailroom.

Pull beginning of frame in skb header, in the hope we can reuse order-1
pages in the driver immediately for small frames and reduce their
truesize to the minimum (linear skbs)

Most machines dont use UDP encapsulation (L2TP)

Adds a static_key so that udp_queue_rcv_skb() doesnt have to perform a
test if L2TP never setup the encap_rcv on a socket.

Idea of this patch came after Simon Horman proposal to add a hook on TCP
as well.

If static_key is not yet enabled, the fast path does a single JMP .

When static_key is enabled, JMP destination is patched to reach the real
encap_type/encap_rcv logic, possibly adding cache misses.

Eric Dumazet a21d45726a tcp: avoid order-1 allocations on wifi and tx path
Marc Merlin reported many order-1 allocations failures in TX path on its
wireless setup, that dont make any sense with MTU=1500 network, and non
SG capable hardware.

After investigation, it turns out TCP uses sk_stream_alloc_skb() and
used as a convention skb_tailroom(skb) to know how many bytes of data
payload could be put in this skb (for non SG capable devices)

Note : these skb used kmalloc-4096 (MTU=1500 + MAX_HEADER +
sizeof(struct skb_shared_info) being above 2048)

Later, mac80211 layer need to add some bytes at the tail of skb
(IEEE80211_ENCRYPT_TAILROOM = 18 bytes) and since no more tailroom is
available has to call pskb_expand_head() and request order-1
allocations.

This patch changes sk_stream_alloc_skb() so that only
sk->sk_prot->max_header bytes of headroom are reserved, and use a new
skb field, avail_size to hold the data payload limit.

This way, order-0 allocations done by TCP stack can leave more than 2 KB
of tailroom and no more allocation is performed in mac80211 layer (or
any layer needing some tailroom)

avail_size is unioned with mark/dropcount, since mark will be set later
in IP stack for output packets. Therefore, skb size is unchanged.

Marc Merlin reported many order-1 allocations failures in TX path on its
wireless setup, that dont make any sense with MTU=1500 network, and non

Turns out part of the problem comes from pskb_expand_head() not using
ksize() to get exact head size given by kmalloc(). Doing the same thing
than __alloc_skb() allows more tailroom in skb and can prevent future
reallocations.

As a bonus, struct skb_shared_info becomes cache line aligned.

We need to call tcp_flush() at the end of the last page processed in

stall.

Add a new internal flag, MSG_SENDPAGE_NOTLAST, acting like MSG_MORE, but
with different semantic.

For all sendpage() providers, its a transparent change. Only
sock_sendpage() and tcp_sendpages() can differentiate the two different
flags provided by pipe_to_sendpage()

Eric Dumazet 2f53384424 tcp: allow splice() to build full TSO packets
vmsplice()/splice(pipe, socket) call do_tcp_sendpages() one page at a
time, adding at most 4096 bytes to an skb. (assuming PAGE_SIZE=4096)

The call to tcp_push() at the end of do_tcp_sendpages() forces an
immediate xmit when pipe is not already filled, and tso_fragment() try
to split these skb to MSS multiples.

4096 bytes are usually split in a skb with 2 MSS, and a remaining
sub-mss skb (assuming MTU=1500)

This makes slow start suboptimal because many small frames are sent to
qdisc/driver layers instead of big ones (constrained by cwnd and packets
in flight of course)

In fact, applications using sendmsg() (adding an additional memory copy)
instead of vmsplice()/splice()/sendfile() are a bit faster because of
this anomaly, especially if serving small files in environments with
large initial [c]wnd.

Call tcp_push() only if MSG_MORE is not set in the flags parameter.

This bit is automatically provided by splice() internals but for the
last page, or on all pages if user specified SPLICE_F_MORE splice()
flag.

In some workloads, this can reduce number of sent logical packets by an
order of magnitude, making zero-copy TCP actually faster than
one-copy :)

page allocator with high order page allocations. When memory gets

We can try to use order-2 allocations for skb head (SKB_MAX_ALLOC) plus
up to 16 page fragments to lower pressure on buddy allocator.

This patch has no effect on messages of less than 16064 bytes.
(on 64bit arches with PAGE_SIZE=4096)

For bigger messages (from 16065 to 81600 bytes), this patch brings
reliability at the expense of performance penalty because of extra pages
allocations.

and is slow :

  # strace -T -o /tmp/STRACE cat /proc/stat | wc -c

  # grep "cpu " /tmp/STRACE
  read(0, "cpu  1949310 19 2144714 12117253"..., 32768) = 5826 <0.001504>

Thats partly because show_stat() must be called twice since initial
buffer size is too small (4096 bytes for less than 32 possible cpus)

Fix this by :

 1) Taking into account nr_irqs in the initial buffer sizing.

 2) Using ksize() to allow better filling of initial buffer.

Eric Dumazet c8628155ec tcp: reduce out_of_order memory use
With increasing receive window sizes, but speed of light not improved
that much, out of order queue can contain a huge number of skbs, waiting
to be moved to receive_queue when missing packets can fill the holes.

Some devices happen to use fat skbs (truesize of 4096 + sizeof(struct
sk_buff)) to store regular (MTU <= 1500) frames. This makes highly
probable sk_rmem_alloc hits sk_rcvbuf limit, which can be 4Mbytes in
many cases.

When limit is hit, tcp stack calls tcp_collapse_ofo_queue(), a true
latency killer and cpu cache blower.

Doing the coalescing attempt each time we add a frame in ofo queue
permits to keep memory use tight and in many cases avoid the
tcp_collapse() thing later.

Tested on various wireless setups (b43, ath9k, ...) known to use big skb
truesize, this patch removed the "packets collapsed in receive queue due
to low socket buffer" I had before.

This also reduced average memory used by tcp sockets.

In case of memory allocation error, only safe way is to drop the packet

Eric Dumazet bb6d5e76fb net/hyperv: fix erroneous NETDEV_TX_BUSY use
A driver start_xmit() method cannot free skb and return NETDEV_TX_BUSY,

This is mostly a revert of commit bf769375c (staging: hv: fix the return
status of netvsc_start_xmit())

In fact netif_tx_stop_queue() / netif_stop_queue() is needed before

Eric Dumazet cc34eb672e sch_sfq: revert dont put new flow at the end of flows
This reverts commit d47a0ac7b6 (sch_sfq: dont put new flow at the end of
flows)

As Jesper found out, patch sounded great but has bad side effects.

In stress situation, pushing new flows in front of the queue can prevent
old flows doing any progress. Packets can stay in SFQ queue for
unlimited amount of time.

It's possible to add heuristics to limit this problem, but this would
add complexity outside of SFQ scope.

A more sensible answer to Dave Taht concerns (who reported the issued I
tried to solve in original commit) is probably to use a qdisc hierarchy
so that high prio packets dont enter a potentially crowded SFQ qdisc.

Eric Dumazet a9e0aca4b3 asix: asix_rx_fixup surgery to reduce skb truesizes
asix_rx_fixup() is complex, and does some unnecessary memory copies (at
least on x86 where NET_IP_ALIGN is 0)

Also, it tends to provide skbs with a big truesize (4096+256 with
MTU=1500) to upper stack, so incoming trafic consume a lot of memory and
I noticed early packet drops because we hit socket rcvbuf too fast.

Switch to a different strategy, using copybreak so that we provide nice
skbs to upper stack (including the NET_SKB_PAD to avoid future head
reallocations in some paths)

With this patch, I no longer see packets drops or tcp collapses on
various tcp workload with a AX88772 adapter.

Eric Dumazet dfd25ffffc tcp: fix syncookie regression
commit ea4fc0d619 (ipv4: Don't use rt->rt_{src,dst} in ip_queue_xmit())
added a serious regression on synflood handling.

Simon Kirby discovered a successful connection was delayed by 20 seconds
before being responsive.

In my tests, I discovered that xmit frames were lost, and needed ~4
retransmits and a socket dst rebuild before being really sent.

In case of syncookie initiated connection, we use a different path to
initialize the socket dst, and inet->cork.fl.u.ip4 is left cleared.

As ip_queue_xmit() now depends on inet flow being setup, fix this by
copying the temp flowi4 we use in cookie_v4_check().

Eric Dumazet 9f6f9af769 af_unix: MSG_TRUNC support for dgram sockets
Piergiorgio Beruto expressed the need to fetch size of first datagram in
queue for AF_UNIX sockets and suggested a patch against SIOCINQ ioctl.

I suggested instead to implement MSG_TRUNC support as a recv() input
flag, as already done for RAW, UDP & NETLINK sockets.

len = recv(fd, &byte, 1, MSG_PEEK | MSG_TRUNC);

MSG_TRUNC asks recv() to return the real length of the packet, even when
is was longer than the passed buffer.

There is risk that a userland application used MSG_TRUNC by accident
(since it had no effect on af_unix sockets) and this might break after
this patch.

Eric Dumazet 11aad99af6 atl1c: dont use highprio tx queue
This driver attempts to use two TX rings but lacks proper support :

1) IRQ handler only takes care of TX completion on first TX ring
2) the stop/start logic uses the legacy functions (for non multiqueue
drivers)

This means all packets witk skb mark set to 1 are sent through high
queue but are never cleaned and queue eventualy fills and block the
device, triggering the infamous "NETDEV WATCHDOG" message.

Lets use a single TX ring to fix the problem, this driver is not a real
multiqueue one yet.

Minimal fix for stable kernels.

Eric Dumazet 6f01fd6e6f af_unix: fix EPOLLET regression for stream sockets
Commit 0884d7aa24 (AF_UNIX: Fix poll blocking problem when reading from
a stream socket) added a regression for epoll() in Edge Triggered mode
(EPOLLET)

Appropriate fix is to use skb_peek()/skb_unlink() instead of
skb_dequeue(), and only call skb_unlink() when skb is fully consumed.

This remove the need to requeue a partial skb into sk_receive_queue head
and the extra sk->sk_data_ready() calls that added the regression.

This is safe because once skb is given to sk_receive_queue, it is not
modified by a writer, and readers are serialized by u->readlock mutex.

This also reduce number of spinlock acquisition for small reads or
MSG_PEEK users so should improve overall performance.

Eric Dumazet bb349bb4b1 be2net: allocate more headroom in incoming skbs
Allocation of 64 bytes in skb headroom is not enough if we have to pull
ethernet + ipv6 + tcp headers, and/or extra tunneling header.

Its currently not noticed because netdev_alloc_skb_ip_align(64) give us
more room, thanks to power-of-two kmalloc() roundups.

Make sure we ask for 128 bytes so that side effects of upcoming patches
from Ian Campbell dont decrease benet rx performance, because of extra
skb head reallocations.

Eric Dumazet 073862ba5d netns: fix net_alloc_generic()
When a new net namespace is created, we should attach to it a "struct
net_generic" with enough slots (even empty), or we can hit the following
BUG_ON() :

net_alloc_generic() should take into account the maximum index into the
ptr array, as a subsystem might use net_generic() anytime.

This also reduces number of reallocations in net_assign_generic()

Eric Dumazet 0ad9500e16 slub: prefetch next freelist pointer in slab_alloc()
Recycling a page is a problem, since freelist link chain is hot on
cpu(s) which freed objects, and possibly very cold on cpu currently
owning slab.

Adding a prefetch of cache line containing the pointer to next object in
slab_alloc() helps a lot in many workloads, in particular on assymetric
ones (allocations done on one cpu, frees on another cpus). Added cost is
three machine instructions only.

Examples on my dual socket quad core ht machine (Intel CPU E5540
@2.53GHz) (16 logical cpus, 2 memory nodes), 64bit kernel.

Eric Dumazet a5a1195559 tg3: fix ipv6 header length computation
tg3_start_xmit() makes the wrong assumption for TSOV6 that skb->head
doesnt include any payload data.

if (skb_is_gso_v6(skb))
	hdr_len = skb_headlen(skb) - ETH_HLEN;

This is not true anymore after commit f07d960df3 (tcp: avoid frag
allocation for small frames)

We should instead use : skb_transport_offset(skb) + tcp_hdrlen(skb)

Its also true for IPv4

Eric Dumazet d00a9dd21b net: bpf_jit: fix divide by 0 generation
Several problems fixed in this patch :

1) Target of the conditional jump in case a divide by 0 is performed
   by a bpf is wrong.

2) Must 'generate' the full function prologue/epilogue at pass=0,
   or else we can stop too early in pass=1 if the proglen doesnt change.
   (if the increase of prologue/epilogue equals decrease of all
    instructions length because some jumps are converted to near jumps)

3) Change the wrong length detection at the end of code generation to
   issue a more explicit message, no need for a full stack trace.

Eric Dumazet ddecf0f4db net_sched: sfq: add optional RED on top of SFQ
Adds an optional Random Early Detection on each SFQ flow queue.

Traditional SFQ limits count of packets, while RED permits to also
control number of bytes per flow, and adds ECN capability as well.

1) We dont handle the idle time management in this RED implementation,
since each 'new flow' begins with a null qavg. We really want to address
backlogged flows.

2) if headdrop is selected, we try to ecn mark first packet instead of
currently enqueued packet. This gives faster feedback for tcp flows
compared to traditional RED [ marking the last packet in queue ]

Example of use :

tc qdisc add dev $DEV parent 1:1 handle 10: est 1sec 4sec sfq \
	limit 3000 headdrop flows 512 divisor 16384 \
	redflowlimit 100000 min 8000 max 60000 probability 0.20 ecn

qdisc sfq 10: parent 1:1 limit 3000p quantum 1514b depth 127 headdrop
flows 512/16384 divisor 16384
 ewma 6 min 8000b max 60000b probability 0.2 ecn
 prob_mark 0 prob_mark_head 4876 prob_drop 6131
 forced_mark 0 forced_mark_head 0 forced_drop 0
 Sent 1175211782 bytes 777537 pkt (dropped 6131, overlimits 11007
requeues 0)
 rate 99483Kbit 8219pps backlog 689392b 456p requeues 0

In this test, with 64 netperf TCP_STREAM sessions, 50% using ECN enabled
flows, we can see number of packets CE marked is smaller than number of
drops (for non ECN flows)

If same test is run, without RED, we can check backlog is much bigger.
