tcp: implement coalescing on backlog queue

2018-11-30T21:26:54+00:00

In case GRO is not as efficient as it should be or disabled,
we might have a user thread trapped in __release_sock() while
softirq handler flood packets up to the point we have to drop.

This patch balances work done from user thread and softirq,
to give more chances to __release_sock() to complete its work
before new packets are added the the backlog.

This also helps if we receive many ACK packets, since GRO
does not aggregate them.

This patch brings ~60% throughput increase on a receiver
without GRO, but the spectacular gain is really on
1000x release_sock() latency reduction I have measured.

ip: discard IPv4 datagrams with overlapping segments.

2018-08-06T00:16:46+00:00

This behavior is required in IPv6, and there is little need
to tolerate overlapping fragments in IPv4. This change
simplifies the code and eliminates potential DDoS attack vectors.

Tested: ran ip_defrag selftest (not yet available uptream).

tcp: add new SNMP counter for drops when try to queue in rcv queue

2018-06-30T09:43:53+00:00

When sk_rmem_alloc is larger than the receive buffer and we can't
schedule more memory for it, the skb will be dropped.

In above situation, if this skb is put into the ofo queue,
LINUX_MIB_TCPOFODROP is incremented to track it.

While if this skb is put into the receive queue, there's no record.
So a new SNMP counter is introduced to track this behavior.

LINUX_MIB_TCPRCVQDROP:  Number of packets meant to be queued in rcv queue
			but dropped because socket rcvbuf limit hit.

tcp: add SNMP counter for zero-window drops

2018-06-26T02:49:08+00:00

It will be helpful if we could display the drops due to zero window or no
enough window space.
So a new SNMP MIB entry is added to track this behavior.
This entry is named LINUX_MIB_TCPZEROWINDOWDROP and published in
/proc/net/netstat in TcpExt line as TCPZeroWindowDrop.

This counter tracks number of ACK packets that the host has not sent,

tcp: export packets delivery info

2018-04-19T17:05:16+00:00

Export data delivered and delivered with CE marks to
1) SNMP TCPDelivered and TCPDeliveredCE
2) getsockopt(TCP_INFO)
3) Timestamping API SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_STATS

Note that for SCM_TSTAMP_ACK, the delivery info in
SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_STATS is reported before the info
was fully updated on the ACK.

These stats help application monitor TCP delivery and ECN status
on per host, per connection, even per message level.

inet: frags: break the 2GB limit for frags storage

2018-04-01T03:25:39+00:00

Some users are willing to provision huge amounts of memory to be able
to perform reassembly reasonnably well under pressure.

Current memory tracking is using one atomic_t and integers.

Switch to atomic_long_t so that 64bit arches can use more than 2GB,
without any cost for 32bit arches.

Note that this patch avoids an overflow error, if high_thresh was set
to ~2GB, since this test in inet_frag_alloc() was never true :

if (... || frag_mem_limit(nf) > nf->high_thresh)

Tested:

$ echo 16000000000 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ipfrag_high_thresh



$ grep FRAG /proc/net/sockstat
FRAG: inuse 14705885 memory 16000002880
