2016-05-11tcp: replace cnt & rtt with struct in pkts_acked()Lawrence Brakmo
Replace 2 arguments (cnt and rtt) in the congestion control modules' pkts_acked() function with a struct. This will allow adding more information without having to modify existing congestion control modules (tcp_nv in particular needs bytes in flight when packet was sent). As proposed by Neal Cardwell in his comments to the tcp_nv patch. Signed-off-by: Lawrence Brakmo <brakmo@fb.com> Acked-by: Yuchung Cheng <ycheng@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2016-05-04tcp: fix lockdep splat in tcp_snd_una_update()Eric Dumazet
tcp_snd_una_update() and tcp_rcv_nxt_update() call u64_stats_update_begin() either from process context or BH handler. This triggers a lockdep splat on 32bit & SMP builds. We could add u64_stats_update_begin_bh() variant but this would slow down 32bit builds with useless local_disable_bh() and local_enable_bh() pairs, since we own the socket lock at this point. I add sock_owned_by_me() helper to have proper lockdep support even on 64bit builds, and new u64_stats_update_begin_raw() and u64_stats_update_end_raw methods.

2016-04-28tcp: remove SKBTX_ACK_TSTAMP since it is redundantSoheil Hassas Yeganeh
The SKBTX_ACK_TSTAMP flag is set in skb_shinfo->tx_flags when the timestamp of the TCP acknowledgement should be reported on error queue. Since accessing skb_shinfo is likely to incur a cache-line miss at the time of receiving the ack, the txstamp_ack bit was added in tcp_skb_cb, which is set iff the SKBTX_ACK_TSTAMP flag is set for an skb. This makes SKBTX_ACK_TSTAMP flag redundant. Remove the SKBTX_ACK_TSTAMP and instead use the txstamp_ack bit everywhere. Note that this frees one bit in shinfo->tx_flags.

2016-04-24tcp-tso: do not split TSO packets at retransmit timeEric Dumazet
Linux TCP stack painfully segments all TSO/GSO packets before retransmits. This was fine back in the days when TSO/GSO were emerging, with their bugs, but we believe the dark age is over. Keeping big packets in write queues, but also in stack traversal has a lot of benefits. - Less memory overhead, because write queues have less skbs - Less cpu overhead at ACK processing. - Better SACK processing, as lot of studies mentioned how awful linux was at this ;) - Less cpu overhead to send the rtx packets (IP stack traversal, netfilter traversal, drivers...) - Better latencies in presence of losses. - Smaller spikes in fq like packet schedulers, as retransmits are not constrained by TCP Small Queues. 1 % packet losses are common today, and at 100Gbit speeds, this translates to ~80,000 losses per second. Losses are often correlated, and we see many retransmit events leading to 1-MSS train of packets, at the time hosts are already under stress.

2016-04-21tcp: Fix SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_ACK when handling dup acksMartin KaFai Lau
Assuming SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_ACK is on. When dup acks are received, it could incorrectly think that a skb has already been acked and queue a SCM_TSTAMP_ACK cmsg to the sk->sk_error_queue. In tcp_ack_tstamp(), it checks 'between(shinfo->tskey, prior_snd_una, tcp_sk(sk)->snd_una - 1)'. If prior_snd_una == tcp_sk(sk)->snd_una like the following packetdrill script, between() returns true but the tskey is actually not acked. e.g. try between(3, 2, 1). The fix is to replace between() with one before() and one !before(). By doing this, the -1 offset on the tcp_sk(sk)->snd_una can also be removed. A packetdrill script is used to reproduce the dup ack scenario. Due to the lacking cmsg support in packetdrill (may be I cannot find it), a BPF prog is used to kprobe to sock_queue_err_skb() and print out the value of serr->ee.ee_data. Both the packetdrill and the bcc BPF script is attached at the end of this commit message.

2016-04-04tcp: use one bit in TCP_SKB_CB to mark ACK timestampsSoheil Hassas Yeganeh
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.

2016-04-02tcp: remove cwnd moderation after recoveryYuchung Cheng
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. v2 changes: revised commit message on bogus ACKs and burst, and missing signature Signed-off-by: Matt Mathis <mattmathis@google.com> Signed-off-by: Neal Cardwell <ncardwell@google.com> Signed-off-by: Soheil Hassas Yeganeh <soheil@google.com> Signed-off-by: Yuchung Cheng <ycheng@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2016-02-07tcp: new delivery accountingYuchung Cheng
This patch changes the accounting of how many packets are newly acked or sacked when the sender receives an ACK. The current approach basically computes newly_acked_sacked = (prior_packets - prior_sacked) - (tp->packets_out - tp->sacked_out) where prior_packets and prior_sacked out are snapshot at the beginning of the ACK processing. The new approach tracks the delivery information via a new TCP state variable "delivered" which monotically increases as new packets are delivered in order or out-of-order. The reason for this change is that the current approach is brittle that produces negative or inaccurate estimate. 1) For non-SACK connections, an ACK that advances the SND.UNA could reset the DUPACK counters (tp->sacked_out) in tcp_process_loss() or tcp_fastretrans_alert(). This inflates the inflight suddenly and causes under-estimate or even negative estimate. Here is a real example: before after (processing ACK) packets_out 75 73 sacked_out 23 0 ca state Loss Open The old approach computes (75-23) - (73 - 0) = -21 delivered while the new approach computes 1 delivered since it considers the 2nd-24th packets are delivered OOO. 2) MSS change would re-count packets_out and sacked_out so the estimate is in-accurate and can even become negative. E.g., the inflight is doubled when MSS is halved. 3) Spurious retransmission signaled by DSACK is not accounted The new approach is simpler and more robust. For SACK connections, tp->delivered increments as packets are being acked or sacked in SACK and ACK processing. For non-sack connections, it's done in tcp_remove_reno_sacks() and tcp_add_reno_sack(). When an ACK advances the SND.UNA, tp->delivered is incremented by the number of packets ACKed (less the current number of DUPACKs received plus one packet hole). Upon receiving a DUPACK, tp->delivered is incremented assuming one out-of-order packet is delivered. Upon receiving a DSACK, tp->delivered is incremtened assuming one retransmission is delivered in tcp_sacktag_write_queue().

Currently the cwnd is reduced and increased in various different places. The reduction happens in various places in the recovery state processing (tcp_fastretrans_alert) while the increase happens afterward. A better sequence is to identify lost packets and update the congestion control state (icsk_ca_state) first. Then base on the new state, up/down the cwnd in one central place.

2016-01-28tcp: fix tcp_mark_head_lost to check skb len before fragmentingNeal Cardwell
This commit fixes a corner case in tcp_mark_head_lost() which was causing the WARN_ON(len > skb->len) in tcp_fragment() to fire. tcp_mark_head_lost() was assuming that if a packet has tcp_skb_pcount(skb) of N, then it's safe to fragment off a prefix of M*mss bytes, for any M < N. But with the tricky way TCP pcounts are maintained, this is not always true. For example, suppose the sender sends 4 1-byte packets and have the last 3 packet sacked. It will merge the last 3 packets in the write queue into an skb with pcount = 3 and len = 3 bytes. If another recovery happens after a sack reneging event, tcp_mark_head_lost() may attempt to split the skb assuming it has more than 2*MSS bytes. This sounds very counterintuitive, but as the commit description for the related commit c0638c247f55 ("tcp: don't fragment SACKed skbs in tcp_mark_head_lost()") notes, this is because tcp_shifted_skb() coalesces adjacent regions of SACKed skbs, and when doing this it preserves the sum of their packet counts in order to reflect the real-world dynamics on the wire. The c0638c247f55 commit tried to avoid problems by not fragmenting SACKed skbs, since SACKed skbs are where the non-proportionality between pcount and skb->len/mss is known to be possible. However, that commit did not handle the case where during a reneging event one of these weird SACKed skbs becomes an un-SACKed skb, which tcp_mark_head_lost() can then try to fragment. The fix is to simply mark the entire skb lost when this happens. This makes the recovery slightly more aggressive in such corner cases before we detect reordering. But once we detect reordering this code path is by-passed because FACK is disabled.

2016-01-06tcp: fix zero cwnd in tcp_cwnd_reductionYuchung Cheng
Patch 3759824da87b ("tcp: PRR uses CRB mode by default and SS mode conditionally") introduced a bug that cwnd may become 0 when both inflight and sndcnt are 0 (cwnd = inflight + sndcnt). This may lead to a div-by-zero if the connection starts another cwnd reduction phase by setting tp->prior_cwnd to the current cwnd (0) in tcp_init_cwnd_reduction(). To prevent this we skip PRR operation when nothing is acked or sacked. Then cwnd must be positive in all cases as long as ssthresh is positive: 1) The proportional reduction mode inflight > ssthresh > 0 2) The reduction bound mode a) inflight == ssthresh > 0 b) inflight < ssthresh sndcnt > 0 since newly_acked_sacked > 0 and inflight < ssthresh Therefore in all cases inflight and sndcnt can not both be 0. We check invalid tp->prior_cwnd to avoid potential div0 bugs. In reality this bug is triggered only with a sequence of less common events. For example, the connection is terminating an ECN-triggered cwnd reduction with an inflight 0, then it receives reordered/old ACKs or DSACKs from prior transmission (which acks nothing). Or the connection is in fast recovery stage that marks everything lost, but fails to retransmit due to local issues, then receives data packets from other end which acks nothing.

This effectively allow a process to have a "VRF-global" listen socket, with child sockets bound to the VRF device in which the packet originated. A similar behavior can be achieved using sk_mark, but a solution using marks is incomplete as it does not handle duplicate addresses in different L3 domains/VRFs.

2015-10-21tcp: use RACK to detect lossesYuchung Cheng
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.

2015-10-21tcp: track the packet timings in RACKYuchung Cheng
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.

2015-10-21tcp: track min RTT using windowed min-filterYuchung Cheng
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.
