tcp: fix tcp_ecn_withdraw_cwr() to clear TCP_ECN_QUEUE_CWR

2019-09-19T07:10:46+00:00

[ Upstream commit af38d07ed391b21f7405fa1f936ca9686787d6d2 ]

Fix tcp_ecn_withdraw_cwr() to clear the correct bit:
TCP_ECN_QUEUE_CWR.

Rationale: basically, TCP_ECN_DEMAND_CWR is a bit that is purely about
the behavior of data receivers, and deciding whether to reflect
incoming IP ECN CE marks as outgoing TCP th->ece marks. The
TCP_ECN_QUEUE_CWR bit is purely about the behavior of data senders,
and deciding whether to send CWR. The tcp_ecn_withdraw_cwr() function
is only called from tcp_undo_cwnd_reduction() by data senders during
an undo, so it should zero the sender-side state,
TCP_ECN_QUEUE_CWR. It does not make sense to stop the reflection of
incoming CE bits on incoming data packets just because outgoing
packets were spuriously retransmitted.

The bug has been reproduced with packetdrill to manifest in a scenario
with RFC3168 ECN, with an incoming data packet with CE bit set and
carrying a TCP timestamp value that causes cwnd undo. Before this fix,
the IP CE bit was ignored and not reflected in the TCP ECE header bit,
and sender sent a TCP CWR ('W') bit on the next outgoing data packet,
even though the cwnd reduction had been undone.  After this fix, the
sender properly reflects the CE bit and does not set the W bit.

Note: the bug actually predates 2005 git history; this Fixes footer is
chosen to be the oldest SHA1 I have tested (from Sep 2007) for which
the patch applies cleanly (since before this commit the code was in a
.h file).

tcp: limit payload size of sacked skbs

2019-06-16T01:47:31+00:00

Jonathan Looney reported that TCP can trigger the following crash
in tcp_shifted_skb() :

	BUG_ON(tcp_skb_pcount(skb) < pcount);

This can happen if the remote peer has advertized the smallest
MSS that linux TCP accepts : 48

An skb can hold 17 fragments, and each fragment can hold 32KB
on x86, or 64KB on PowerPC.

This means that the 16bit witdh of TCP_SKB_CB(skb)->tcp_gso_segs
can overflow.

Note that tcp_sendmsg() builds skbs with less than 64KB
of payload, so this problem needs SACK to be enabled.
SACK blocks allow TCP to coalesce multiple skbs in the retransmit
queue, thus filling the 17 fragments to maximal capacity.

tcp: fix undo spurious SYNACK in passive Fast Open

2019-06-10T03:04:11+00:00

Commit 794200d66273 ("tcp: undo cwnd on Fast Open spurious SYNACK
retransmit") may cause tcp_fastretrans_alert() to warn about pending
retransmission in Open state. This is triggered when the Fast Open
server both sends data and has spurious SYNACK retransmission during
the handshake, and the data packets were lost or reordered.

The root cause is a bit complicated:

(1) Upon receiving SYN-data: a full socket is created with
    snd_una = ISN + 1 by tcp_create_openreq_child()

(2) On SYNACK timeout the server/sender enters CA_Loss state.

(3) Upon receiving the final ACK to complete the handshake, sender
    does not mark FLAG_SND_UNA_ADVANCED since (1)

    Sender then calls tcp_process_loss since state is CA_loss by (2)

(4) tcp_process_loss() does not invoke undo operations but instead
    mark REXMIT_LOST to force retransmission

(5) tcp_rcv_synrecv_state_fastopen() calls tcp_try_undo_loss(). It
    changes state to CA_Open but has positive tp->retrans_out

(6) Next ACK triggers the WARN_ON in tcp_fastretrans_alert()

The step that goes wrong is (4) where the undo operation should
have been invoked because the ACK successfully acknowledged the
SYN sequence. This fixes that by specifically checking undo
when the SYN-ACK sequence is acknowledged. Then after
tcp_process_loss() the state would be further adjusted based
in tcp_fastretrans_alert() to avoid triggering the warning in (6).

ipv4: tcp_input: fix stack out of bounds when parsing TCP options.

2019-05-30T19:32:47+00:00

The TCP option parsing routines in tcp_parse_options function could
read one byte out of the buffer of the TCP options.

1         while (length > 0) {
2                 int opcode = *ptr++;
3                 int opsize;
4
5                 switch (opcode) {
6                 case TCPOPT_EOL:
7                         return;
8                 case TCPOPT_NOP:        /* Ref: RFC 793 section 3.1 */
9                         length--;
10                        continue;
11                default:
12                        opsize = *ptr++; //out of bound access

If length = 1, then there is an access in line2.
And another access is occurred in line 12.
This would lead to out-of-bound access.

Therefore, in the patch we check that the available data length is
larger enough to pase both TCP option code and size.

tcp: fix retrans timestamp on passive Fast Open

2019-05-14T22:17:49+00:00

Commit c7d13c8faa74 ("tcp: properly track retry time on
passive Fast Open") sets the start of SYNACK retransmission
time on passive Fast Open in "retrans_stamp". However the
timestamp is not reset upon the handshake has completed. As a
result, future data packet retransmission may not update it in
tcp_retransmit_skb(). This may lead to socket aborting earlier
unexpectedly by retransmits_timed_out() since retrans_stamp remains
the SYNACK rtx time.

This bug only manifests on passive TFO sender that a) suffered
SYNACK timeout and then b) stalls on very first loss recovery. Any
successful loss recovery would reset the timestamp to avoid this
issue.

net/tcp: use deferred jump label for TCP acked data hook

2019-05-09T18:13:57+00:00

User space can flip the clean_acked_data_enabled static branch
on and off with TLS offload when CONFIG_TLS_DEVICE is enabled.
jump_label.h suggests we use the delayed version in this case.

Deferred branches now also don't take the branch mutex on
decrement, so we avoid potential locking issues.

tcp: undo cwnd on Fast Open spurious SYNACK retransmit

2019-05-01T15:47:54+00:00

This patch makes passive Fast Open reverts the cwnd to default
initial cwnd (10 packets) if the SYNACK timeout is spurious.

Passive Fast Open uses a full socket during handshake so it can
use the existing undo logic to detect spurious retransmission
by recording the first SYNACK timeout in key state variable
retrans_stamp. Upon receiving the ACK of the SYNACK, if the socket
has sent some data before the timeout, the spurious timeout
is detected by tcp_try_undo_recovery() in tcp_process_loss()
in tcp_ack().

But if the socket has not send any data yet, tcp_ack() does not
execute the undo code since no data is acknowledged. The fix is to
check such case explicitly after tcp_ack() during the ACK processing
in SYN_RECV state. In addition this is checked in FIN_WAIT_1 state
in case the server closes the socket before handshake completes.

tcp: undo init congestion window on false SYNACK timeout

2019-05-01T15:47:54+00:00

Linux implements RFC6298 and use an initial congestion window
of 1 upon establishing the connection if the SYNACK packet is
retransmitted 2 or more times. In cellular networks SYNACK timeouts
are often spurious if the wireless radio was dormant or idle. Also
some network path is longer than the default SYNACK timeout. In
both cases falsely starting with a minimal cwnd are detrimental
to performance.

This patch avoids doing so when the final ACK's TCP timestamp
indicates the original SYNACK was delivered. It remembers the
original SYNACK timestamp when SYNACK timeout has occurred and
re-uses the function to detect spurious SYN timeout conveniently.

Note that a server may receives multiple SYNs from and immediately
retransmits SYNACKs without any SYNACK timeout. This often happens
on when the client SYNs have timed out due to wireless delay
above. In this case since the server will still use the default
initial congestion (e.g. 10) because tp->undo_marker is reset in
tcp_init_metrics(). This is an intentional design because packets
are not lost but delayed.

This patch only covers regular TCP passive open. Fast Open is
supported in the next patch.
