The current implementation of TCP MTU probing can considerably
underestimate the MTU on lossy connections allowing the MSS to get down to
48. We have found that in almost all of these cases on our networks these
paths can handle much larger MTUs meaning the connections are being
artificially limited. Even though TCP MTU probing can raise the MSS back up
we have seen this not to be the case causing connections to be "stuck" with
an MSS of 48 when heavy loss is present.
Prior to pushing out this change we could not keep TCP MTU probing enabled
b/c of the above reasons. Now with a reasonble floor set we've had it
enabled for the past 6 months.
The new sysctl will still default to TCP_MIN_SND_MSS (48), but gives
administrators the ability to control the floor of MSS probing.

loopback flows got hurt, because for each skb sent, the socket receives an

Intent was to not let the backlog grow too much, but we went a bit too far.
We can check the backlog every 16 skbs (about 1MB chunks)
to increase TCP over loopback performance by about 15 %
Note that the call to sk_flush_backlog() handles a single ACK,
thanks to coalescing done on backlog, but cleans the 16 skbs
found in rtx rb-tree.

We now remedy this by making it possible to clone such messages and send
the clones to the loopback interface. The clones are dropped at reception
and have no functional role except making the traffic visible.
The feature is enabled if network taps are active for the loopback device.
pcap filtering restrictions require the messages to be presented to the
receiving side of the loopback device.

net: batched receive in GRO path
This series listifies part of GRO processing, in a manner which allows those
packets which are not GROed (i.e. for which dev_gro_receive returns
GRO_NORMAL) to be passed on to the listified regular receive path.
dev_gro_receive() itself is not listified, nor the per-protocol GRO
callback, since GRO's need to hold packets on lists under napi->gro_hash
makes keeping the packets on other lists awkward, and since the GRO control
block state of held skbs can refer only to one 'new' skb at a time.
Instead, when napi_frags_finish() handles a GRO_NORMAL result, stash the skb
onto a list in the napi struct, which is received at the end of the napi
poll or when its length exceeds the (new) sysctl net.core.gro_normal_batch.
Performance figures with this series, collected on a back-to-back pair of
Solarflare sfn8522-r2 NICs with 120-second NetPerf tests. In the stats,
sample size n for old and new code is 6 runs each; p is from a Welch t-test.
Tests were run both with GRO enabled and disabled, the latter simulating
uncoalesceable packets (e.g. due to IP or TCP options). The receive side
(which was the device under test) had the NetPerf process pinned to one CPU,
and the device interrupts pinned to a second CPU. CPU utilisation figures
(used in cases of line-rate performance) are summed across all CPUs.
net.core.gro_normal_batch was left at its default value of 8.

after #3: 868.517 us (+ 0.1%, p=0.414 vs net-next)
(*) These tests produced a mixture of line-rate and below-line-rate results,
meaning that statistically speaking the results were 'censored' by the
upper bound, and were thus not normally distributed, making a Welch t-test
mathematically invalid. I therefore also calculated estimators according
to [1], which gave the following:
net-next: 8.133 Gbps
after #1: 8.130 Gbps (- 0.0%, p=0.499 vs net-next)
after #3: 7.680 Gbps (- 5.6%, p=0.285 vs net-next)
(though my procedure for determining ν wasn't mathematically well-founded
either, so take that p-value with a grain of salt).
A further check came from dividing the bandwidth figure by the CPU usage for
each test run, giving:
net-next: 3.461
after #1: 3.198 (- 7.6%, p=0.145 vs net-next)
after #3: 3.641 (+ 5.2%, p=0.280 vs net-next)
The above results are fairly mixed, and in most cases not statistically
significant. But I think we can roughly conclude that the series
marginally improves non-GROable throughput, without hurting latency
(except in the large-payload busy-polling case, which in any case yields
horrid performance even on net-next (almost triple the latency without
busy-poll). Also, drivers which, unlike sfc, pass UDP traffic to GRO
would expect to see a benefit from gaining access to batching.
Changed in v3:
* gro_normal_batch sysctl now uses SYSCTL_ONE instead of &one
* removed RFC tags (no comments after a week means no-one objects, right?)
Changed in v2:
* During busy poll, call gro_normal_list() to receive batched packets
after each cycle of the napi busy loop. See comments in Patch #3 for
complications of doing the same in busy_poll_stop().

When GRO decides not to coalesce a packet, in napi_frags_finish(), instead
of passing it to the stack immediately, place it on a list in the napi
struct. Then, at flush time (napi_complete_done(), napi_poll(), or
napi_busy_loop()), call netif_receive_skb_list_internal() on the list.
We'd like to do that in napi_gro_flush(), but it's not called if
!napi->gro_bitmask, so we have to do it in the callers instead. (There are
a handful of drivers that call napi_gro_flush() themselves, but it's not
clear why, or whether this will affect them.)
Because a full 64 packets is an inefficiently large batch, also consume the
list whenever it exceeds gro_normal_batch, a new net/core sysctl that
defaults to 8.

We already scored points when handling the RX event, no-one else does this,
and looking at the history it appears this was originally meant to only
score on merges, not on GRO_NORMAL. Moreover, it gets in the way of
changing GRO to not immediately pass GRO_NORMAL skbs to the stack.
Performance testing with four TCP streams received on a single CPU (where
throughput was line rate of 9.4Gbps in all tests) showed a 13.7% reduction
in RX CPU usage (n=6, p=0.03).
