While reading sysctl_ip_default_ttl, it can be changed concurrently.
Thus, we need to add READ_ONCE() to its readers.

I forgot tcp had per netns tracking of timewait sockets,
and their sysctl to change the limit.

After 0dad4087a86a ("tcp/dccp: get rid of inet_twsk_purge()"),
whole struct net can be freed before last tw socket is freed.

We need to allocate a separate struct inet_timewait_death_row
object per netns.

tw_count becomes a refcount and gains associated debugging infrastructure.

Use of percpu_counter structure to track count of orphaned
sockets is causing problems on modern hosts with 256 cpus
or more.

Stefan Bach reported a serious spinlock contention in real workloads,
that I was able to reproduce with a netfilter rule dropping
incoming FIN packets.

As explained in commit cf86a086a180 ("net/dst: use a smaller percpu_counter
batch for dst entries accounting"), default batch size is too big
for the default value of tcp_max_orphans (262144).

But even if we reduce batch sizes, there would still be cases
where the estimated count of orphans is beyond the limit,
and where tcp_too_many_orphans() has to call the expensive
percpu_counter_sum_positive().

One solution is to use plain per-cpu counters, and have
a timer to periodically refresh this cache.

Updating this cache every 100ms seems about right, tcp pressure
state is not radically changing over shorter periods.

percpu_counter was nice 15 years ago while hosts had less
than 16 cpus, not anymore by current standards.

    reported by kernel test robot &lt;lkp@intel.com&gt;
    Remove unused socket argument from tcp_too_many_orphans()

<id>55d444b310c64b084dcc62ba3e4dc3862269fb96</id>
<content type='text'>
This commit adds two stats for the socket migration feature to evaluate the
effectiveness: LINUX_MIB_TCPMIGRATEREQ(SUCCESS|FAILURE).

If the migration fails because of the own_req race in receiving ACK and
sending SYN+ACK paths, we do not increment the failure stat. Then another
CPU is responsible for the req.

When udp_memory_allocated is at the limit, __udp_enqueue_schedule_skb
will return a -ENOBUFS, and skb will be dropped in __udp_queue_rcv_skb
without any counters being done. It's hard to find out what happened
once this happen.

So we introduce a UDP_MIB_MEMERRORS to do this job. Well, this change
looks friendly to the existing users, such as netstat:

$ netstat -u -s
Udp:
    0 packets received
    639 packets to unknown port received.
    158689 packet receive errors
    180022 packets sent

Currently, we use length of DSACKed range to compute number of
delivered packets. And if sequence range in DSACK is corrupted,
we can get bogus dsacked/acked count, and bogus cwnd.

This patch put bounds on DSACKed range to skip update of data
delivery and spurious retransmission information, if the DSACK
is unlikely caused by sender's action:
- DSACKed range shouldn't be greater than maximum advertised rwnd.
- Total no. of DSACKed segments shouldn't be greater than total
  no. of retransmitted segs. Unlike spurious retransmits, network
  duplicates or corrupted DSACKs shouldn't be counted as delivery.

<title>tcp: add SNMP counter for no. of duplicate segments reported by DSACK</title>

There are two existing SNMP counters, TCPDSACKRecv and TCPDSACKOfoRecv,
which are incremented depending on whether the DSACKed range is below
the cumulative ACK sequence number or not. Unfortunately, these both
implicitly assume each DSACK covers only one segment. This makes these
counters unusable for estimating spurious retransmit rates,
or real/non-spurious loss rate.

This patch introduces a new SNMP counter, TCPDSACKRecvSegs, which tracks
the estimated number of duplicate segments based on:
(DSACKed sequence range) / MSS. This counter is usable for estimating
spurious retransmit rates, or real/non-spurious loss rate.

<title>mptcp: add and use MIB counter infrastructure</title>

Exported via same /proc file as the Linux TCP MIB counters, so "netstat -s"
or "nstat" will show them automatically.

The MPTCP MIB counters are allocated in a distinct pcpu area in order to
avoid bloating/wasting TCP pcpu memory.

Counters are allocated once the first MPTCP socket is created in a
network namespace and free'd on exit.

If no sockets have been allocated, all-zero mptcp counters are shown.

The MIB counter list is taken from the multipath-tcp.org kernel, but
only a few counters have been picked up so far.  The counter list can
be increased at any time later on.

v2 -&gt; v3:
 - remove 'inline' in foo.c files (David S. Miller)

Using IPv6 flow-label to swiftly route around avoid congested or
disconnected network path can greatly improve TCP reliability.

This patch adds SNMP counters and a OPT_STATS counter to track both
host-level and connection-level statistics. Network administrators
can use these counters to evaluate the impact of this new ability better.

Export count for rehash attempts to
1) two SNMP counters: TcpTimeoutRehash (rehash due to timeouts),
   and TcpDuplicateDataRehash (rehash due to receiving duplicate
   packets)
2) Timestamping API SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_STATS.
