This commit adds code to track whether the delivery rate represented by each rate_sample was limited by the application. Upon each transmit, we store in the is_app_limited field in the skb a boolean bit indicating whether there is a known "bubble in the pipe": a point in the rate sample interval where the sender was application-limited, and did not transmit even though the cwnd and pacing rate allowed it. This logic marks the flow app-limited on a write if *all* of the following are true: 1) There is less than 1 MSS of unsent data in the write queue available to transmit. 2) There is no packet in the sender's queues (e.g. in fq or the NIC tx queue). 3) The connection is not limited by cwnd. 4) There are no lost packets to retransmit. The tcp_rate_check_app_limited() code in tcp_rate.c determines whether the connection is application-limited at the moment. If the flow is application-limited, it sets the tp->app_limited field. If the flow is application-limited then that means there is effectively a "bubble" of silence in the pipe now, and this silence will be reflected in a lower bandwidth sample for any rate samples from now until we get an ACK indicating this bubble has exited the pipe: specifically, until we get an ACK for the next packet we transmit. When we send every skb we record in scb->tx.is_app_limited whether the resulting rate sample will be application-limited. The code in tcp_rate_gen() checks to see when it is safe to mark all known application-limited bubbles of silence as having exited the pipe. It does this by checking to see when the delivered count moves past the tp->app_limited marker. At this point it zeroes the tp->app_limited marker, as all known bubbles are out of the pipe. We make room for the tx.is_app_limited bit in the skb by borrowing a bit from the in_flight field used by NV to record the number of bytes in flight. The receive window in the TCP header is 16 bits, and the max receive window scaling shift factor is 14 (RFC 1323). So the max receive window offered by the TCP protocol is 2^(16+14) = 2^30. So we only need 30 bits for the tx.in_flight used by NV. Signed-off-by:Van Jacobson <vanj@google.com> Signed-off-by:

This patch generates data delivery rate (throughput) samples on a per-ACK basis. These rate samples can be used by congestion control modules, and specifically will be used by TCP BBR in later patches in this series. Key state: tp->delivered: Tracks the total number of data packets (original or not) delivered so far. This is an already-existing field. tp->delivered_mstamp: the last time tp->delivered was updated. Algorithm: A rate sample is calculated as (d1 - d0)/(t1 - t0) on a per-ACK basis: d1: the current tp->delivered after processing the ACK t1: the current time after processing the ACK d0: the prior tp->delivered when the acked skb was transmitted t0: the prior tp->delivered_mstamp when the acked skb was transmitted When an skb is transmitted, we snapshot d0 and t0 in its control block in tcp_rate_skb_sent(). When an ACK arrives, it may SACK and ACK some skbs. For each SACKed or ACKed skb, tcp_rate_skb_delivered() updates the rate_sample struct to reflect the latest (d0, t0). Finally, tcp_rate_gen() generates a rate sample by storing (d1 - d0) in rs->delivered and (t1 - t0) in rs->interval_us. One caveat: if an skb was sent with no packets in flight, then tp->delivered_mstamp may be either invalid (if the connection is starting) or outdated (if the connection was idle). In that case, we'll re-stamp tp->delivered_mstamp. At first glance it seems t0 should always be the time when an skb was transmitted, but actually this could over-estimate the rate due to phase mismatch between transmit and ACK events. To track the delivery rate, we ensure that if packets are in flight then t0 and and t1 are times at which packets were marked delivered. If the initial and final RTTs are different then one may be corrupted by some sort of noise. The noise we see most often is sending gaps caused by delayed, compressed, or stretched acks. This either affects both RTTs equally or artificially reduces the final RTT. We approach this by recording the info we need to compute the initial RTT (duration of the "send phase" of the window) when we recorded the associated inflight. Then, for a filter to avoid bandwidth overestimates, we generalize the per-sample bandwidth computation from: bw = delivered / ack_phase_rtt to the following: bw = delivered / max(send_phase_rtt, ack_phase_rtt) In large-scale experiments, this filtering approach incorporating send_phase_rtt is effective at avoiding bandwidth overestimates due to ACK compression or stretched ACKs.

Count the number of packets that a TCP connection marks lost. Congestion control modules can use this loss rate information for more intelligent decisions about how fast to send. Specifically, this is used in TCP BBR policer detection. BBR uses a high packet loss rate as one signal in its policer detection and policer bandwidth estimation algorithm. The BBR policer detection algorithm cannot simply track retransmits, because a retransmit can be (and often is) an indicator of packets lost long, long ago. This is particularly true in a long CA_Loss period that repairs the initial massive losses when a policer kicks in. Signed-off-by:

Revert to the tcp_skb_cb size check that tcp_init() had before commit b4772ef8 ("net: use common macro for assering skb->cb[] available size in protocol families"). As related commit 744d5a3e ("net: move skb->dropcount to skb->cb[]") explains, the sock_skb_cb_check_size() mechanism was added to ensure that there is space for dropcount, "for protocol families using it". But TCP is not a protocol using dropcount, so tcp_init() doesn't need to provision space for dropcount in the skb->cb[], and thus we can revert to the older form of the tcp_skb_cb size check. Doing so allows TCP to use 4 more bytes of the skb->cb[] space. Fixes: b4772ef8 ("net: use common macro for assering skb->cb[] available size in protocol families") Signed-off-by:

This commit adds to the fq module a low_rate_threshold parameter to insert a delay after all packets if the socket requests a pacing rate below the threshold. This helps achieve more precise control of the sending rate with low-rate paths, especially policers. The basic issue is that if a congestion control module detects a policer at a certain rate, it may want fq to be able to shape to that policed rate. That way the sender can avoid policer drops by having the packets arrive at the policer at or just under the policed rate. The default threshold of 550Kbps was chosen analytically so that for policers or links at 500Kbps or 512Kbps fq would very likely invoke this mechanism, even if the pacing rate was briefly slightly above the available bandwidth. This value was then empirically validated with two years of production testing on YouTube video servers. Signed-off-by:

Refactor the TCP min_rtt code to reuse the new win_minmax library in lib/win_minmax.c to simplify the TCP code. This is a pure refactor: the functionality is exactly the same.

This commit introduces a generic library to estimate either the min or max value of a time-varying variable over a recent time window. This is code originally from Kathleen Nichols. The current form of the code is from Van Jacobson. A single struct minmax_sample will track the estimated windowed-max value of the series if you call minmax_running_max() or the estimated windowed-min value of the series if you call minmax_running_min(). Nearly equivalent code is already in place for minimum RTT estimation in the TCP stack. This commit extracts that code and generalizes it to handle both min and max. Moving the code here reduces the footprint and complexity of the TCP code base and makes the filter generally available for other parts of the codebase, including an upcoming TCP congestion control module. This library works well for time series where the measurements are smoothly increasing or decreasing. Signed-off-by:

The upcoming change "lib/win_minmax: windowed min or max estimator" introduces a struct called minmax, which is then included in include/linux/tcp.h in the upcoming change "tcp: use windowed min filter library for TCP min_rtt estimation". This would create a compilation error for tcp_cdg.c, which defines its own minmax struct. To avoid this naming conflict (and potentially others in the future), this commit renames the version used in tcp_cdg.c to cdg_minmax. Signed-off-by:

An address can be loaded in the ATU with multiple ports, for instance when adding multiple ports to a Multicast group with "bridge mdb". The current code doesn't allow that. Add an helper to get a single entry from the ATU, then set or clear the requested port, before loading the entry back in the ATU. Note that the required _mv88e6xxx_atu_getnext function is defined below mv88e6xxx_port_db_load_purge, so forward-declare it for the moment. The ATU code will be isolated in future patches.

This work implements direct packet access for helpers and direct packet write in a similar fashion as already available for XDP types via commits 4acf6c0b ("bpf: enable direct packet data write for xdp progs") and 6841de8b ("bpf: allow helpers access the packet directly"), and as a complementary feature to the already available direct packet read for tc (cls/act) programs. For enabling this, we need to introduce two helpers, bpf_skb_pull_data() and bpf_csum_update(). The first is generally needed for both, read and write, because they would otherwise only be limited to the current linear skb head. Usually, when the data_end test fails, programs just bail out, or, in the direct read case, use bpf_skb_load_bytes() as an alternative to overcome this limitation. If such data sits in non-linear parts, we can just pull them in once with the new helper, retest and eventually access them. At the same time, this also makes sure the skb is uncloned, which is, of course, a necessary condition for direct write. As this needs to be an invariant for the write part only, the verifier detects writes and adds a prologue that is calling bpf_skb_pull_data() to effectively unclone the skb from the very beginning in case it is indeed cloned. The heuristic makes use of a similar trick that was done in 233577a2 ("net: filter: constify detection of pkt_type_offset"). This comes at zero cost for other programs that do not use the direct write feature. Should a program use this feature only sparsely and has read access for the most parts with, for example, drop return codes, then such write action can be delegated to a tail called program for mitigating this cost of potential uncloning to a late point in time where it would have been paid similarly with the bpf_skb_store_bytes() as well. Advantage of direct write is that the writes are inlined whereas the helper cannot make any length assumptions and thus needs to generate a call to memcpy() also for small sizes, as well as cost of helper call itself with sanity checks are avoided. Plus, when direct read is already used, we don't need to cache or perform rechecks on the data boundaries (due to verifier invalidating previous checks for helpers that change skb->data), so more complex programs using rewrites can benefit from switching to direct read plus write. For direct packet access to helpers, we save the otherwise needed copy into a temp struct sitting on stack memory when use-case allows. Both facilities are enabled via may_access_direct_pkt_data() in verifier. For now, we limit this to map helpers and csum_diff, and can successively enable other helpers where we find it makes sense. Helpers that definitely cannot be allowed for this are those part of bpf_helper_changes_skb_data() since they can change underlying data, and those that write into memory as this could happen for packet typed args when still cloned. bpf_csum_update() helper accommodates for the fact that we need to fixup checksum_complete when using direct write instead of bpf_skb_store_bytes(), meaning the programs can use available helpers like bpf_csum_diff(), and implement csum_add(), csum_sub(), csum_block_add(), csum_block_sub() equivalents in eBPF together with the new helper. A usage example will be provided for iproute2's examples/bpf/ directory. Signed-off-by:

Current contract for the following two helper argument types is: * ARG_CONST_STACK_SIZE: passed argument pair must be (ptr, >0). * ARG_CONST_STACK_SIZE_OR_ZERO: passed argument pair can be either (NULL, 0) or (ptr, >0). With 6841de8b ("bpf: allow helpers access the packet directly"), we can pass also raw packet data to helpers, so depending on the argument type being PTR_TO_PACKET, we now either assert memory via check_packet_access() or check_stack_boundary(). As a result, the tests in check_packet_access() currently allow more than intended with regards to reg->imm. Back in 969bf05e ("bpf: direct packet access"), check_packet_access() was fine to ignore size argument since in check_mem_access() size was bpf_size_to_bytes() derived and prior to the call to check_packet_access() guaranteed to be larger than zero. However, for the above two argument types, it currently means, we can have a <= 0 size and thus breaking current guarantees for helpers. Enforce a check for size <= 0 and bail out if so. check_stack_boundary() doesn't have such an issue since it already tests for access_size <= 0 and bails out, resp. access_size == 0 in case of NULL pointer passed when allowed.

Herbert Xu says: ==================== rhashtable: rhashtable with duplicate objects v3 fixes a bug in the remove path that causes the element count to decrease when it shouldn't, leading to a gigantic hash table when it underflows. v2 contains a reworked insertion slowpath to ensure that the spinlock for the table we're inserting into is taken. This series contains two patches. The first adds the rhlist interface and the second converts mac80211 to use it. If this works out I'll then proceed to convert the other insecure_elasticity users over to this. I've tested the rhlist code with test_rhashtable but I haven't tested the mac80211 conversion. So please give it a go and see if it still works. ==================== Signed-off-by: -
Herbert Xu authored
mac80211 currently uses rhashtable with insecure_elasticity set to true. The latter is because of duplicate objects. What's more, mac80211 walks the rhashtable chains by hand which is broken as rhashtable may contain multiple tables due to resizing or rehashing. This patch fixes it by converting it to the newly added rhltable interface which is designed for use with duplicate objects. With rhltable a lookup returns a list of objects instead of a single one. This is then fed into the existing for_each_sta_info macro. This patch also deletes the sta_addr_hash function since rhashtable defaults to jhash. Signed-off-by:

The insecure_elasticity setting is an ugly wart brought out by users who need to insert duplicate objects (that is, distinct objects with identical keys) into the same table. In fact, those users have a much bigger problem. Once those duplicate objects are inserted, they don't have an interface to find them (unless you count the walker interface which walks over the entire table). Some users have resorted to doing a manual walk over the hash table which is of course broken because they don't handle the potential existence of multiple hash tables. The result is that they will break sporadically when they encounter a hash table resize/rehash. This patch provides a way out for those users, at the expense of an extra pointer per object. Essentially each object is now a list of objects carrying the same key. The hash table will only see the lists so nothing changes as far as rhashtable is concerned. To use this new interface, you need to insert a struct rhlist_head into your objects instead of struct rhash_head. While the hash table is unchanged, for type-safety you'll need to use struct rhltable instead of struct rhashtable. All the existing interfaces have been duplicated for rhlist, including the hash table walker. One missing feature is nulls marking because AFAIK the only potential user of it does not need duplicate objects. Should anyone need this it shouldn't be too hard to add. Signed-off-by:

Small packet loss is reported on complex multi host network configurations including tunnels, NAT, ... My investigation led me to the following check in netback which drops packets: if (unlikely(txreq.size < ETH_HLEN)) { netdev_err(queue->vif->dev, "Bad packet size: %d\n", txreq.size); xenvif_tx_err(queue, &txreq, extra_count, idx); break; } But this check itself is legitimate. SKBs consist of a linear part (which has to have the ethernet header) and (optionally) a number of frags. Netfront transmits the head of the linear part up to the page boundary as the first request and all the rest becomes frags so when we're reconstructing the SKB in netback we can't distinguish between original frags and the 'tail' of the linear part. The first SKB needs to be at least ETH_HLEN size. So in case we have an SKB with its linear part starting too close to the page boundary the packet is lost. I see two ways to fix the issue: - Change the 'wire' protocol between netfront and netback to start keeping the original SKB structure. We'll have to add a flag indicating the fact that the particular request is a part of the original linear part and not a frag. We'll need to know the length of the linear part to pre-allocate memory. - Avoid transmitting SKBs with linear parts starting too close to the page boundary. That seems preferable short-term and shouldn't bring significant performance degradation as such packets are rare. That's what this patch is trying to achieve with skb_copy().

We get 4 warnings when building kernel with W=1: drivers/net/ethernet/emulex/benet/be_main.c:4368:6: warning: no previous prototype for 'be_calculate_pf_pool_rss_tables' [-Wmissing-prototypes] drivers/net/ethernet/emulex/benet/be_cmds.c:4385:5: warning: no previous prototype for 'be_get_nic_pf_num_list' [-Wmissing-prototypes] drivers/net/ethernet/emulex/benet/be_cmds.c:4537:6: warning: no previous prototype for 'be_reset_nic_desc' [-Wmissing-prototypes] drivers/net/ethernet/emulex/benet/be_cmds.c:4910:5: warning: no previous prototype for '__be_cmd_set_logical_link_config' [-Wmissing-prototypes] In fact, these functions are only used in the file in which they are declared and don't need a declaration, but can be made static. so this patch marks these functions with 'static'.
