UDP sendmsg() is lockless, so ip_select_ident_segs()
can very well be run from multiple cpus [1]

Convert inet-&gt;inet_id to an atomic_t, but implement
a dedicated path for TCP, avoiding cost of a locked
instruction (atomic_add_return())

Note that this patch will cause a trivial merge conflict
because we added inet-&gt;flags in net-next tree.

<title>net: fix the RTO timer retransmitting skb every 1ms if linear option is enabled</title>

<id>e4dd0d3a2f64b8bd8029ec70f52bdbebd0644408</id>
<content type='text'>
In the real workload, I encountered an issue which could cause the RTO
timer to retransmit the skb per 1ms with linear option enabled. The amount
of lost-retransmitted skbs can go up to 1000+ instantly.

The root cause is that if the icsk_rto happens to be zero in the 6th round
(which is the TCP_THIN_LINEAR_RETRIES value), then it will always be zero
due to the changed calculation method in tcp_retransmit_timer() as follows:

icsk-&gt;icsk_rto = min(icsk-&gt;icsk_rto &lt;&lt; 1, TCP_RTO_MAX);

Above line could be converted to
icsk-&gt;icsk_rto = min(0 &lt;&lt; 1, TCP_RTO_MAX) = 0

Therefore, the timer expires so quickly without any doubt.

I read through the RFC 6298 and found that the RTO value can be rounded
up to a certain value, in Linux, say TCP_RTO_MIN as default, which is
regarded as the lower bound in this patch as suggested by Eric.

<title>nexthop: Fix infinite nexthop bucket dump when using maximum nexthop ID</title>
<updated>2023-08-09T20:45:12+00:00</updated>

<id>8743aeff5bc4dcb5b87b43765f48d5ac3ad7dd9f</id>
<content type='text'>
A netlink dump callback can return a positive number to signal that more
information needs to be dumped or zero to signal that the dump is
complete. In the second case, the core netlink code will append the
NLMSG_DONE message to the skb in order to indicate to user space that
the dump is complete.

The nexthop bucket dump callback always returns a positive number if
nexthop buckets were filled in the provided skb, even if the dump is
complete. This means that a dump will span at least two recvmsg() calls
as long as nexthop buckets are present. In the last recvmsg() call the
dump callback will not fill in any nexthop buckets because the previous
call indicated that the dump should restart from the last dumped nexthop
ID plus one.

 # ip link add name dummy1 up type dummy
 # ip nexthop add id 1 dev dummy1
 # ip nexthop add id 10 group 1 type resilient buckets 2

 +++ exited with 0 +++

This behavior is both inefficient and buggy. If the last nexthop to be
dumped had the maximum ID of 0xffffffff, then the dump will restart from
0 (0xffffffff + 1) and never end:

 # ip link add name dummy1 up type dummy
 # ip nexthop add id 1 dev dummy1
 # ip nexthop add id $((2**32-1)) group 1 type resilient buckets 2
 # ip nexthop bucket
 id 4294967295 index 0 idle_time 5.55 nhid 1
 id 4294967295 index 1 idle_time 5.55 nhid 1
 id 4294967295 index 0 idle_time 5.55 nhid 1
 id 4294967295 index 1 idle_time 5.55 nhid 1
 [...]

Fix by adjusting the dump callback to return zero when the dump is
complete. After the fix only one recvmsg() call is made and the
NLMSG_DONE message is appended to the RTM_NEWNEXTHOPBUCKET responses:

 # ip link add name dummy1 up type dummy
 # ip nexthop add id 1 dev dummy1
 # ip nexthop add id $((2**32-1)) group 1 type resilient buckets 2
 # strace -e sendto,recvmsg -s 5 ip nexthop bucket
 sendto(3, [[{nlmsg_len=24, nlmsg_type=RTM_GETNEXTHOPBUCKET, nlmsg_flags=NLM_F_REQUEST|NLM_F_DUMP, nlmsg_seq=1691396737, nlmsg_pid=0}, {family=AF_UNSPEC, data="\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00"...}], {nlmsg_len=0, nlmsg_type=0 /* NLMSG_??? */, nlmsg_flags=0, nlmsg_seq=0, nlmsg_pid=0}], 152, 0, NULL, 0) = 152

 recvmsg(3, {msg_name={sa_family=AF_NETLINK, nl_pid=0, nl_groups=00000000}, msg_namelen=12, msg_iov=[{iov_base=[[{nlmsg_len=64, nlmsg_type=RTM_NEWNEXTHOPBUCKET, nlmsg_flags=NLM_F_MULTI, nlmsg_seq=1691396737, nlmsg_pid=350}, {family=AF_UNSPEC, data="\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00"...}], [{nlmsg_len=64, nlmsg_type=RTM_NEWNEXTHOPBUCKET, nlmsg_flags=NLM_F_MULTI, nlmsg_seq=1691396737, nlmsg_pid=350}, {family=AF_UNSPEC, data="\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00"...}], [{nlmsg_len=20, nlmsg_type=NLMSG_DONE, nlmsg_flags=NLM_F_MULTI, nlmsg_seq=1691396737, nlmsg_pid=350}, 0]], iov_len=32768}], msg_iovlen=1, msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, 0) = 148

 +++ exited with 0 +++

Note that if the NLMSG_DONE message cannot be appended because of size
limitations, then another recvmsg() will be needed, but the core netlink
code will not invoke the dump callback and simply reply with a
NLMSG_DONE message since it knows that the callback previously returned
zero.

Add a test that fails before the fix:

 # ./fib_nexthops.sh -t basic_res
 [...]
 TEST: Maximum nexthop ID dump                                       [FAIL]
 [...]

And passes after it:

 # ./fib_nexthops.sh -t basic_res
 [...]
 TEST: Maximum nexthop ID dump                                       [ OK ]
 [...]

This behavior is both inefficient and buggy. If the last nexthop to be
dumped had the maximum ID of 0xffffffff, then the dump will restart from
0 (0xffffffff + 1) and never end:

 # ip link add name dummy1 up type dummy
 # ip nexthop add id 1 dev dummy1
 # ip nexthop add id $((2**32-1)) group 1 type resilient buckets 2
 # ip nexthop bucket

 id 4294967295 index 1 idle_time 5.55 nhid 1
 [...]

Fix by adjusting the dump callback to return zero when the dump is
complete. After the fix only one recvmsg() call is made and the
NLMSG_DONE message is appended to the RTM_NEWNEXTHOPBUCKET responses:

 # ip link add name dummy1 up type dummy
 # ip nexthop add id 1 dev dummy1
 # ip nexthop add id $((2**32-1)) group 1 type resilient buckets 2

Note that if the NLMSG_DONE message cannot be appended because of size
limitations, then another recvmsg() will be needed, but the core netlink
code will not invoke the dump callback and simply reply with a
NLMSG_DONE message since it knows that the callback previously returned
zero.

Add a test that fails before the fix:

 # ./fib_nexthops.sh -t basic_res
 [...]
 TEST: Maximum nexthop ID dump                                       [FAIL]
 [...]

And passes after it:

 # ./fib_nexthops.sh -t basic_res
 [...]
 TEST: Maximum nexthop ID dump                                       [ OK ]

<title>nexthop: Make nexthop bucket dump more efficient</title>

rtm_dump_nexthop_bucket_nh() is used to dump nexthop buckets belonging
to a specific resilient nexthop group. The function returns a positive
return code (the skb length) upon both success and failure.

The above behavior is problematic. When a complete nexthop bucket dump
is requested, the function that walks the different nexthops treats the
non-zero return code as an error. This causes buckets belonging to
different resilient nexthop groups to be dumped using different buffers
even if they can all fit in the same buffer:

 # ip link add name dummy1 up type dummy
 # ip nexthop add id 1 dev dummy1
 # ip nexthop add id 10 group 1 type resilient buckets 1
 # ip nexthop add id 20 group 1 type resilient buckets 1
 # strace -e recvmsg -s 0 ip nexthop bucket
 [...]
 recvmsg(3, {msg_name={sa_family=AF_NETLINK, nl_pid=0, nl_groups=00000000}, msg_namelen=12, msg_iov=[...], msg_iovlen=1, msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, 0) = 64

 id 20 index 0 idle_time 6.44 nhid 1
 [...]

Fix by only returning a non-zero return code when an error occurred and
restarting the dump from the bucket index we failed to fill in. This
allows buckets belonging to different resilient nexthop groups to be
dumped using the same buffer:

 # ip link add name dummy1 up type dummy
 # ip nexthop add id 1 dev dummy1
 # ip nexthop add id 10 group 1 type resilient buckets 1
 # ip nexthop add id 20 group 1 type resilient buckets 1

 id 10 index 0 idle_time 30.21 nhid 1
 id 20 index 0 idle_time 26.7 nhid 1
 [...]

While this change is more of a performance improvement change than an
actual bug fix, it is a prerequisite for a subsequent patch that does
fix a bug.

<title>nexthop: Fix infinite nexthop dump when using maximum nexthop ID</title>

A netlink dump callback can return a positive number to signal that more
information needs to be dumped or zero to signal that the dump is
complete. In the second case, the core netlink code will append the
NLMSG_DONE message to the skb in order to indicate to user space that
the dump is complete.

The nexthop dump callback always returns a positive number if nexthops
were filled in the provided skb, even if the dump is complete. This
means that a dump will span at least two recvmsg() calls as long as
nexthops are present. In the last recvmsg() call the dump callback will
not fill in any nexthops because the previous call indicated that the
dump should restart from the last dumped nexthop ID plus one.

Note that if the NLMSG_DONE message cannot be appended because of size
limitations, then another recvmsg() will be needed, but the core netlink
code will not invoke the dump callback and simply reply with a
NLMSG_DONE message since it knows that the callback previously returned
zero.

Add a test that fails before the fix:

 # ./fib_nexthops.sh -t basic
 [...]
 TEST: Maximum nexthop ID dump                                       [FAIL]
 [...]

And passes after it:

 # ./fib_nexthops.sh -t basic
 [...]
 TEST: Maximum nexthop ID dump                                       [ OK ]
 [...]

ip_compute_csum() cannot deal with nonlinear skbs, so avoid it.
After this change, splat is gone and iperf3 is no longer stuck.

<title>tcp_metrics: fix data-race in tcpm_suck_dst() vs fastopen</title>

<content type='text'>
Whenever tcpm_new() reclaims an old entry, tcpm_suck_dst()
would overwrite data that could be read from tcp_fastopen_cache_get()
or tcp_metrics_fill_info().

We need to acquire fastopen_seqlock to maintain consistency.

For newly allocated objects, tcpm_new() can switch to kzalloc()
to avoid an extra fastopen_seqlock acquisition.

tm-&gt;tcpm_net can be read or written locklessly.

Instead of changing write_pnet() and read_pnet() and potentially
hurt performance, add the needed READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE()
in tm_net() and tcpm_new().
