We found that sometimes a restored tcp socket doesn't work.
A reason of this bug is incorrect window parameters and in this case
tcp_acceptable_seq() returns tcp_wnd_end(tp) instead of tp->snd_nxt. The
other side drops packets with this seq, because seq is less than
tp->rcv_nxt ( tcp_sequence() ).
Data from a send queue is sent only if there is enough space in a
window, so when we restore unacked data, we need to expand a window to
fit this data.
This was in a first version of this patch:
"tcp: extend window to fit all restored unacked data in a send queue"
Then Alexey recommended me to restore window parameters instead of
adjusted them according with data in a sent queue. This sounds resonable.
rcv_wnd has to be restored, because it was reported to another side
and the offered window is never shrunk.
One of reasons why we need to restore snd_wnd was described above.

Large sendmsg()/write() hold socket lock for the duration of the call,
unless sk->sk_sndbuf limit is hit. This is bad because incoming packets
are parked into socket backlog for a long time.
Critical decisions like fast retransmit might be delayed.
Receivers have to maintain a big out of order queue with additional cpu
overhead, and also possible stalls in TX once windows are full.
Bidirectional flows are particularly hurt since the backlog can become
quite big if the copy from user space triggers IO (page faults)
Some applications learnt to use sendmsg() (or sendmmsg()) with small
chunks to avoid this issue.
Kernel should know better, right ?
Add a generic sk_flush_backlog() helper and use it right
before a new skb is allocated. Typically we put 64KB of payload
per skb (unless MSG_EOR is requested) and checking socket backlog
every 64KB gives good results.
As a matter of fact, tests with TSO/GSO disabled give very nice
results, as we manage to keep a small write queue and smaller
perceived rtt.
Note that sk_flush_backlog() maintains socket ownership,
so is not equivalent to a {release_sock(sk); lock_sock(sk);},
to ensure implicit atomicity rules that sendmsg() was
giving to (possibly buggy) applications.
In this simple implementation, I chose to not call tcp_release_cb(),
but we might consider this later.

This patch adds an eor bit to the TCP_SKB_CB. When MSG_EOR
is passed to tcp_sendmsg, the eor bit will be set at the skb
containing the last byte of the userland's msg. The eor bit
will prevent data from appending to that skb in the future.
The change in do_tcp_sendpages is to honor the eor set
during the previous tcp_sendmsg(MSG_EOR) call.
This patch handles the tcp_sendmsg case. The followup patches
will handle other skb coalescing and fragment cases.
One potential use case is to use MSG_EOR with
SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_ACK to get a more accurate
TCP ack timestamping on application protocol with
multiple outgoing response messages (e.g. HTTP2).

The SKBTX_ACK_TSTAMP flag is set in skb_shinfo->tx_flags when
the timestamp of the TCP acknowledgement should be reported on
error queue. Since accessing skb_shinfo is likely to incur a
cache-line miss at the time of receiving the ack, the
txstamp_ack bit was added in tcp_skb_cb, which is set iff
the SKBTX_ACK_TSTAMP flag is set for an skb. This makes
SKBTX_ACK_TSTAMP flag redundant.
Remove the SKBTX_ACK_TSTAMP and instead use the txstamp_ack bit

Currently, SOL_TIMESTAMPING can only be enabled using setsockopt.
This is very costly when users want to sample writes to gather
tx timestamps.
Add support for enabling SO_TIMESTAMPING via control messages by
using tsflags added in `struct sockcm_cookie` (added in the previous
patches in this series) to set the tx_flags of the last skb created in
a sendmsg. With this patch, the timestamp recording bits in tx_flags
of the skbuff is overridden if SO_TIMESTAMPING is passed in a cmsg.
Please note that this is only effective for overriding the recording
timestamps flags. Users should enable timestamp reporting (e.g.,
SOF_TIMESTAMPING_SOFTWARE | SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_ID) using
socket options and then should ask for SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_*
using control messages per sendmsg to sample timestamps for each
write.

Currently, to avoid a cache line miss for accessing skb_shinfo,
tcp_ack_tstamp skips socket that do not have
SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_ACK bit set in sk_tsflags. This is
implemented based on an implicit assumption that the
SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_ACK is set via socket options for the
duration that ACK timestamps are needed.
To implement per-write timestamps, this check should be
removed and replaced with a per-packet alternative that
quickly skips packets missing ACK timestamps marks without
a cache-line miss.
To enable per-packet marking without a cache line miss, use
one bit in TCP_SKB_CB to mark a whether a SKB might need a
ack tx timestamp or not. Further checks in tcp_ack_tstamp are not
modified and work as before.

When closing a listen socket, tcp_abort currently calls

child socket that is established but not yet accepted, the child
socket is then left without a parent, causing a leak.

inet_csk_listen_stop with the socket lock held, like tcp_close

Kathleen Nichols' algorithm for tracking the minimum RTT of a
data stream over some measurement window. It uses constant space
and constant time per update. Yet it almost always delivers
the same minimum as an implementation that has to keep all
the data in the window. The measurement window is tunable via
sysctl.net.ipv4.tcp_min_rtt_wlen with a default value of 5 minutes.
The algorithm keeps track of the best, 2nd best & 3rd best min
values, maintaining an invariant that the measurement time of
the n'th best >= n-1'th best. It also makes sure that the three
values are widely separated in the time window since that bounds
the worse case error when that data is monotonically increasing
over the window.
Upon getting a new min, we can forget everything earlier because
it has no value - the new min is less than everything else in the
window by definition and it's the most recent. So we restart fresh
on every new min and overwrites the 2nd & 3rd choices. The same
property holds for the 2nd & 3rd best.
Therefore we have to maintain two invariants to maximize the
information in the samples, one on values (1st.v <= 2nd.v <=
3rd.v) and the other on times (now-win <=1st.t <= 2nd.t <= 3rd.t <=
now). These invariants determine the structure of the code
The RTT input to the windowed filter is the minimum RTT measured
from ACK or SACK, or as the last resort from TCP timestamps.
The accessor tcp_min_rtt() returns the minimum RTT seen in the
window. ~0U indicates it is not available. The minimum is 1usec
even if the true RTT is below that.

While auditing TCP stack for upcoming 'lockless' listener changes,
I found I had to change fastopen_init_queue() to properly init the object
before publishing it.
Otherwise an other cpu could try to lock the spinlock before it gets
properly initialized.
Instead of adding appropriate barriers, just remove dynamic memory
allocations :
- Structure is 28 bytes on 64bit arches. Using additional 8 bytes
for holding a pointer seems overkill.
- Two listeners can share same cache line and performance would suffer.
If we really want to save few bytes, we would instead dynamically allocate
whole struct request_sock_queue in the future.

slow start after idle might reduce cwnd, but we perform this
after first packet was cooked and sent.
With TSO/GSO, it means that we might send a full TSO packet
even if cwnd should have been reduced to IW10.
Moving the SSAI check in skb_entail() makes sense, because
we slightly reduce number of times this check is done,
especially for large send() and TCP Small queue callbacks from
softirq context.
As Neal pointed out, we also need to perform the check
if/when receive window opens.

Currently, tcp_recvmsg enters a busy loop in sk_wait_data if called
with flags = MSG_WAITALL | MSG_PEEK.
sk_wait_data waits for sk_receive_queue not empty, but in this case,
the receive queue is not empty, but does not contain any skb that we
can use.
Add a "last skb seen on receive queue" argument to sk_wait_data, so
that it sleeps until the receive queue has new skbs.

We could avoid this locking for TCP_LISTEN states, but lockdep would

We currently rely on the setting of SOCK_NOSPACE in the write()
path to ensure that we wake up any epoll edge trigger waiters when
acks return to free space in the write queue. However, if we fail
to allocate even a single skb in the write queue, we could end up
waiting indefinitely.
Fix this by explicitly issuing a wakeup when we detect the condition
of an empty write queue and a return value of -EAGAIN. This allows
userspace to re-try as we expect this to be a temporary failure.
I've tested this approach by artificially making
sk_stream_alloc_skb() return NULL periodically. In that case,
epoll edge trigger waiters will hang indefinitely in epoll_wait()
without this patch.

we fixed a possible hang of TCP sockets under memory pressure,
by allowing sk_stream_alloc_skb() to use sk_forced_mem_schedule()
if no packet is in socket write queue.
It turns out there are other cases where we want to force memory
schedule :
tcp_fragment() & tso_fragment() need to split a big TSO packet into
two smaller ones. If we block here because of TCP memory pressure,
we can effectively block TCP socket from sending new data.
If no further ACK is coming, this hang would be definitive, and socket
has no chance to effectively reduce its memory usage.

This patch allows a server application to get the TCP SYN headers for
its passive connections. This is useful if the server is doing
fingerprinting of clients based on SYN packet contents.
Two socket options are added: TCP_SAVE_SYN and TCP_SAVED_SYN.
The first is used on a socket to enable saving the SYN headers
for child connections. This can be set before or after the listen()
call.
The latter is used to retrieve the SYN headers for passive connections,
if the parent listener has enabled TCP_SAVE_SYN.
TCP_SAVED_SYN is read once, it frees the saved SYN headers.
The data returned in TCP_SAVED_SYN are network (IPv4/IPv6) and TCP
headers.

patch is actually smaller than it seems to be - most of it is unindenting
the inner loop body in tcp_sendmsg() itself...
the bit in tcp_input.c is going to get reverted very soon - that's what
memcpy_from_msg() will become, but not in this commit; let's keep it
reasonably contained...
There's one potentially subtle change here: in case of short copy from
userland, mainline tcp_send_syn_data() discards the skb it has allocated
and falls back to normal path, where we'll send as much as possible after
rereading the same data again. This patch trims SYN+data skb instead -
that way we don't need to copy from the same place twice.

Commit 95bd09eb27 ("tcp: TSO packets automatic sizing") tried to
control TSO size, but did this at the wrong place (sendmsg() time)
At sendmsg() time, we might have a pessimistic view of flow rate,
and we end up building very small skbs (with 2 MSS per skb).
This is bad because :
- It sends small TSO packets even in Slow Start where rate quickly
increases.
- It tends to make socket write queue very big, increasing tcp_ack()
processing time, but also increasing memory needs, not necessarily
accounted for, as fast clones overhead is currently ignored.
- Lower GRO efficiency and more ACK packets.
Servers with a lot of small lived connections suffer from this.
Lets instead fill skbs as much as possible (64KB of payload), but split
them at xmit time, when we have a precise idea of the flow rate.
skb split is actually quite efficient.
Patch looks bigger than necessary, because TCP Small Queue decision now
has to take place after the eventual split.
As Neal suggested, introduce a new tcp_tso_autosize() helper, so that
tcp_tso_should_defer() can be synchronized on same goal.
Rename tp->xmit_size_goal_segs to tp->gso_segs, as this variable
contains number of mss that we can put in GSO packet, and is not
related to the autosizing goal anymore.

TCP timestamping introduced MSG_ERRQUEUE handling for TCP sockets.
If the socket is of family AF_INET6, call ipv6_recv_error instead
of ip_recv_error.
This change is more complex than a single branch due to the loadable
ipv6 module. It reuses a pre-existing indirect function call from
ping. The ping code is safe to call, because it is part of the core
ipv6 module and always present when AF_INET6 sockets are active.

This encapsulates all of the skb_copy_datagram_iovec() callers
with call argument signature "skb, offset, msghdr->msg_iov, length".
When we move to iov_iters in the networking, the iov_iter object will
sit in the msghdr.
Having a helper like this means there will be less places to touch
during that transformation.

percpu tcp_md5sig_pool contains memory blobs that ultimately
go through sg_set_buf().
-> sg_set_page(sg, virt_to_page(buf), buflen, offset_in_page(buf));
This requires that whole area is in a physically contiguous portion
of memory. And that @buf is not backed by vmalloc().
Given that alloc_percpu() can use vmalloc() areas, this does not
fit the requirements.
Replace alloc_percpu() by a static DEFINE_PER_CPU() as tcp_md5sig_pool
is small anyway, there is no gain to dynamically allocate it.

"Way back, before the current percpu allocator was implemented, static
and dynamic percpu memory areas were allocated and handled separately
and had their own accessors. The distinction has been gone for many
years now; however, the now duplicate two sets of accessors remained
with the pointer based ones - this_cpu_*() - evolving various other
operations over time. During the process, we also accumulated other
inconsistent operations.
This pull request contains Christoph's patches to clean up the
duplicate accessor situation. __get_cpu_var() uses are replaced with
with this_cpu_ptr() and __this_cpu_ptr() with raw_cpu_ptr().
Unfortunately, the former sometimes is tricky thanks to C being a bit
messy with the distinction between lvalues and pointers, which led to
a rather ugly solution for cpumask_var_t involving the introduction of
this_cpu_cpumask_var_ptr().
This converts most of the uses but not all. Christoph will follow up
with the remaining conversions in this merge window and hopefully
remove the obsolete accessors"

"A lot of activities on percpu front. Notable changes are...
- percpu allocator now can take @gfp. If @gfp doesn't contain
GFP_KERNEL, it tries to allocate from what's already available to
the allocator and a work item tries to keep the reserve around
certain level so that these atomic allocations usually succeed.
This will replace the ad-hoc percpu memory pool used by
blk-throttle and also be used by the planned blkcg support for
writeback IOs.
Please note that I noticed a bug in how @gfp is interpreted while
preparing this pull request and applied the fix 6ae833c7fe
("percpu: fix how @gfp is interpreted by the percpu allocator")
just now.
- percpu_ref now uses longs for percpu and global counters instead of
ints. It leads to more sparse packing of the percpu counters on
64bit machines but the overhead should be negligible and this
allows using percpu_ref for refcnting pages and in-memory objects
directly.
- The switching between percpu and single counter modes of a
percpu_ref is made independent of putting the base ref and a
percpu_ref can now optionally be initialized in single or killed
mode. This allows avoiding percpu shutdown latency for cases where
the refcounted objects may be synchronously created and destroyed
in rapid succession with only a fraction of them reaching fully
operational status (SCSI probing does this when combined with
blk-mq support). It's also planned to be used to implement forced
single mode to detect underflow more timely for debugging.
There's a separate branch percpu/for-3.18-consistent-ops which cleans
up the duplicate percpu accessors. That branch causes a number of
conflicts with s390 and other trees. I'll send a separate pull
request w/ resolutions once other branches are merged"

"Most notable changes in here:
1) By far the biggest accomplishment, thanks to a large range of
contributors, is the addition of multi-send for transmit. This is
the result of discussions back in Chicago, and the hard work of
several individuals.
Now, when the ->ndo_start_xmit() method of a driver sees
skb->xmit_more as true, it can choose to defer the doorbell
telling the driver to start processing the new TX queue entires.
skb->xmit_more means that the generic networking is guaranteed to
call the driver immediately with another SKB to send.
There is logic added to the qdisc layer to dequeue multiple
packets at a time, and the handling mis-predicted offloads in
software is now done with no locks held.
Finally, pktgen is extended to have a "burst" parameter that can
be used to test a multi-send implementation.
Several drivers have xmit_more support: i40e, igb, ixgbe, mlx4,
virtio_net
Adding support is almost trivial, so export more drivers to
support this optimization soon.

4) Significant enhancements to the generic PHY layer and the bcm7xxx

5) Allow raw buffers to be used for flow dissection, allowing drivers
to determine the optimal "linear pull" size for devices that DMA

Currently we have two different policies for orphan sockets
that repeatedly stall on zero window ACKs. If a socket gets
a zero window ACK when it is transmitting data, the RTO is
used to probe the window. The socket is aborted after roughly
tcp_orphan_retries() retries (as in tcp_write_timeout()).
But if the socket was idle when it received the zero window ACK,
and later wants to send more data, we use the probe timer to
probe the window. If the receiver always returns zero window ACKs,
icsk_probes keeps getting reset in tcp_ack() and the orphan socket
can stall forever until the system reaches the orphan limit (as
commented in tcp_probe_timer()). This opens up a simple attack
to create lots of hanging orphan sockets to burn the memory
and the CPU, as demonstrated in the recent netdev post "TCP
connection will hang in FIN_WAIT1 after closing if zero window is
advertised." http://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg296539.html
This patch follows the design in RTO-based probe: we abort an orphan
socket stalling on zero window when the probe timer reaches both
the maximum backoff and the maximum RTO. For example, an 100ms RTT
connection will timeout after roughly 153 seconds (0.3 + 0.6 +
.... + 76.8) if the receiver keeps the window shut. If the orphan
socket passes this check, but the system already has too many orphans
(as in tcp_out_of_resources()), we still abort it but we'll also
send an RST packet as the connection may still be active.
In addition, we change TCP_USER_TIMEOUT to cover (life or dead)
sockets stalled on zero-window probes. This changes the semantics
of TCP_USER_TIMEOUT slightly because it previously only applies
when the socket has pending transmission.

Split assignment and initialization from one into two functions.
This is required by followup patches that add Datacenter TCP
(DCTCP) congestion control algorithm - we need to be able to
determine if the connection is moderated by DCTCP before the
3WHS has finished.
As we walk the available congestion control list during the
assignment, we are always guaranteed to have Reno present as
it's fixed compiled-in. Therefore, since we're doing the
early assignment, we don't have a real use for the Reno alias
tcp_init_congestion_ops anymore and can thus remove it.
Actual usage of the congestion control operations are being
made after the 3WHS has finished, in some cases however we
can access get_info() via diag if implemented, therefore we
need to zero out the private area for those modules.

Our goal is to access no more than one cache line access per skb in
a write or receive queue when doing the various walks.
After recent TCP_SKB_CB() reorganizations, it is almost done.
Last part is tcp_skb_pcount() which currently uses
skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_segs, which is a terrible choice, because it needs
3 cache lines in current kernel (skb->head, skb->end, and
shinfo->gso_segs are all in 3 different cache lines, far from skb->cb)
This very simple patch reuses space currently taken by tcp_tw_isn
only in input path, as tcp_skb_pcount is only needed for skb stored in
write queue.
This considerably speeds up tcp_ack(), granted we avoid shinfo->tx_flags
to get SKBTX_ACK_TSTAMP, which seems possible.
This also speeds up all sack processing in general.
This speeds up tcp_sendmsg() because it no longer has to access/dirty
shinfo.

in tcp_sendmsg(), caused by skb_header_release().
It turns out all current skb_header_release() users have a fresh skb,

Input path of TCP do not currently uses TCP_SKB_CB(skb)->tcp_flags,

tcp_recvmsg(), looks at tcp_hdr(skb)->syn for every skb found in receive queue,
and its unfortunate because this bit is located in a cache line right before

We can simplify TCP by copying tcp flags into TCP_SKB_CB(skb)->tcp_flags.
This patch does so, and avoids the cache line miss in tcp_recvmsg()

Fixes: 4ed2d765df ("net-timestamp: TCP timestamping")
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
TCP timestamping extends SO_TIMESTAMPING to bytestreams.
Bytestreams do not have a 1:1 relationship between send() buffers and
network packets. The feature interprets a send call on a bytestream as
a request for a timestamp for the last byte in that send() buffer.
The choice corresponds to a request for a timestamp when all bytes in
the buffer have been sent. That assumption depends on in-order kernel
transmission. This is the common case. That said, it is possible to
construct a traffic shaping tree that would result in reordering.
The guarantee is strong, then, but not ironclad.
This implementation supports send and sendpages (splice). GSO replaces
one large packet with multiple smaller packets. This patch also copies
the option into the correct smaller packet.
This patch does not yet support timestamping on data in an initial TCP
Fast Open SYN, because that takes a very different data path.
If ID generation in ee_data is enabled, bytestream timestamps return a
byte offset, instead of the packet counter for datagrams.
The implementation supports a single timestamp per packet. It silenty
replaces requests for previous timestamps. To avoid missing tstamps,
flush the tcp queue by disabling Nagle, cork and autocork. Missing
tstamps can be detected by offset when the ee_data ID is enabled.
Implementation details:
- On GSO, the timestamping code can be included in the main loop. I
moved it into its own loop to reduce the impact on the common case
to a single branch.
- To avoid leaking the absolute seqno to userspace, the offset
returned in ee_data must always be relative. It is an offset between
an skb and sk field. The first is always set (also for GSO & ACK).
The second must also never be uninitialized. Only allow the ID
option on sockets in the ESTABLISHED state, for which the seqno
is available. Never reset it to zero (instead, move it to the
current seqno when reenabling the option).

This can easily be reproduced with the following packetdrill-script (the
"magic" with netem, sk_pacing and limit_output_bytes is done to prevent
the kernel from pushing all segments, because hitting the limit without
doing this is not so easy with packetdrill):
0 socket(..., SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_TCP) = 3
+0 setsockopt(3, SOL_SOCKET, SO_REUSEADDR, [1], 4) = 0
+0 bind(3, ..., ...) = 0
+0 listen(3, 1) = 0
+0 < S 0:0(0) win 32792 <mss 1460>
+0 > S. 0:0(0) ack 1 <mss 1460>
+0.1 < . 1:1(0) ack 1 win 65000
+0 accept(3, ..., ...) = 4
// This forces that not all segments of the snd-queue will be pushed
+0 `tc qdisc add dev tun0 root netem delay 10ms`
+0 `sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_limit_output_bytes=2`
+0 setsockopt(4, SOL_SOCKET, 47, [2], 4) = 0
+0 write(4,...,10000) = 10000
+0 write(4,...,10000) = 10000
// Set tcp-repair stuff, particularly TCP_RECV_QUEUE
+0 setsockopt(4, SOL_TCP, 19, [1], 4) = 0
+0 setsockopt(4, SOL_TCP, 20, [1], 4) = 0
// This now will make the write push the remaining segments
+0 setsockopt(4, SOL_SOCKET, 47, [20000], 4) = 0
+0 `sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_limit_output_bytes=130000`
// Now we will crash
+0 write(4,...,1000) = 1000
This happens since ec34232575 (tcp: fix retransmission in repair
mode). Prior to that, the call to tcp_push was prevented by a check for
tp->repair.
The patch fixes it, by adding the new goto-label out_nopush. When exiting
tcp_sendmsg and a push is not required, which is the case for tp->repair,
we go to this label.
When repairing and calling send() with TCP_RECV_QUEUE, the data is
actually put in the receive-queue. So, no push is required because no
data has been added to the send-queue.

Upcoming congestion controls for TCP require usec resolution for RTT
estimations. Millisecond resolution is simply not enough these days.
FQ/pacing in DC environments also require this change for finer control
and removal of bimodal behavior due to the current hack in
tcp_update_pacing_rate() for 'small rtt'
TCP_CONG_RTT_STAMP is no longer needed.
As Julian Anastasov pointed out, we need to keep user compatibility :
tcp_metrics used to export RTT and RTTVAR in msec resolution,
so we added RTT_US and RTTVAR_US. An iproute2 patch is needed
to use the new attributes if provided by the kernel.

Willem noticed a TCP_RR regression caused by TCP autocorking
on a Mellanox test bed. MLX4_EN_TX_COAL_TIME is 16 us, which can be
right above RTT between hosts.
We can receive a ACK for a packet still in NIC TX ring buffer or in a
softnet completion queue.
Fix this by always pushing the skb if it is at the head of write queue.
Also, as TX completion is lockless, it's safer to perform sk_wmem_alloc
test after setting TSQ_THROTTLED.

Fixes: f54b311142 ("tcp: auto corking")
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
With the introduction of TCP Small Queues, TSO auto sizing, and TCP
pacing, we can implement Automatic Corking in the kernel, to help
applications doing small write()/sendmsg() to TCP sockets.
Idea is to change tcp_push() to check if the current skb payload is
under skb optimal size (a multiple of MSS bytes)
If under 'size_goal', and at least one packet is still in Qdisc or
NIC TX queues, set the TCP Small Queue Throttled bit, so that the push
will be delayed up to TX completion time.
This delay might allow the application to coalesce more bytes
in the skb in following write()/sendmsg()/sendfile() system calls.
The exact duration of the delay is depending on the dynamics
of the system, and might be zero if no packet for this flow
is actually held in Qdisc or NIC TX ring.
Using FQ/pacing is a way to increase the probability of
autocorking being triggered.
Add a new sysctl (/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_autocorking) to control
this feature and default it to 1 (enabled)
Add a new SNMP counter : nstat -a | grep TcpExtTCPAutoCorking
This counter is incremented every time we detected skb was under used
and its flush was deferred.
Tested:
Interesting effects when using line buffered commands under ssh.
Excellent performance results in term of cpu usage and total throughput.

After commit c9eeec26e3 ("tcp: TSQ can use a dynamic limit"), several
users reported throughput regressions, notably on mvneta and wifi
adapters.
802.11 AMPDU requires a fair amount of queueing to be effective.
This patch partially reverts the change done in tcp_write_xmit()
so that the minimal amount is sysctl_tcp_limit_output_bytes.
It also remove the use of this sysctl while building skb stored
in write queue, as TSO autosizing does the right thing anyway.
Users with well behaving NICS and correct qdisc (like sch_fq),
can then lower the default sysctl_tcp_limit_output_bytes value from
128KB to 8KB.
This new usage of sysctl_tcp_limit_output_bytes permits each driver
authors to check how their driver performs when/if the value is set
to a minimum of 4KB.
Normally, line rate for a single TCP flow should be possible,
but some drivers rely on timers to perform TX completion and
too long TX completion delays prevent reaching full throughput.

TCP listener refactoring, part 3 :
Our goal is to hash SYN_RECV sockets into main ehash for fast lookup,
and parallel SYN processing.
Current inet_ehash_bucket contains two chains, one for ESTABLISH (and
friend states) sockets, another for TIME_WAIT sockets only.
As the hash table is sized to get at most one socket per bucket, it
makes little sense to have separate twchain, as it makes the lookup
slightly more complicated, and doubles hash table memory usage.
If we make sure all socket types have the lookup keys at the same
offsets, we can use a generic and faster lookup. It turns out TIME_WAIT
and ESTABLISHED sockets already have common lookup fields for IPv4.
[ INET_TW_MATCH() is no longer needed ]
I'll provide a follow-up to factorize IPv6 lookup as well, to remove
INET6_TW_MATCH()
This way, SYN_RECV pseudo sockets will be supported the same.
A new sock_gen_put() helper is added, doing either a sock_put() or
inet_twsk_put() [ and will support SYN_RECV later ].
Note this helper should only be called in real slow path, when rcu
lookup found a socket that was moved to another identity (freed/reused
immediately), but could eventually be used in other contexts, like
sock_edemux()

2) br_multicast.c had an overlap between computing max_delay using
msecs_to_jiffies and turning MLDV2_MRC() into an inline function
with a name using lowercase instead of uppercase letters.
3) stmmac had two overlapping changes, one which conditionally allocated

After hearing many people over past years complaining against TSO being
bursty or even buggy, we are proud to present automatic sizing of TSO
packets.
One part of the problem is that tcp_tso_should_defer() uses an heuristic
relying on upcoming ACKS instead of a timer, but more generally, having
big TSO packets makes little sense for low rates, as it tends to create
micro bursts on the network, and general consensus is to reduce the
buffering amount.
This patch introduces a per socket sk_pacing_rate, that approximates
the current sending rate, and allows us to size the TSO packets so
that we try to send one packet every ms.
This field could be set by other transports.
Patch has no impact for high speed flows, where having large TSO packets
makes sense to reach line rate.
For other flows, this helps better packet scheduling and ACK clocking.
This patch increases performance of TCP flows in lossy environments.
A new sysctl (tcp_min_tso_segs) is added, to specify the
minimal size of a TSO packet (default being 2).
A follow-up patch will provide a new packet scheduler (FQ), using
sk_pacing_rate as an input to perform optional per flow pacing.
This explains why we chose to set sk_pacing_rate to twice the current
rate, allowing 'slow start' ramp up.
sk_pacing_rate = 2 * cwnd * mss / srtt
v2: Neal Cardwell reported a suspect deferring of last two segments on
initial write of 10 MSS, I had to change tcp_tso_should_defer() to take
into account tp->xmit_size_goal_segs

When the repair mode is turned off, the write queue seqs are
updated so that the whole queue is considered to be 'already sent.
The "when" field must be set for such skb. It's used in tcp_rearm_rto
for example. If the "when" field isn't set, the retransmit timeout can
be calculated incorrectly and a tcp connected can stop for two minutes
(TCP_RTO_MAX).

Idea of this patch is to add optional limitation of number of
unsent bytes in TCP sockets, to reduce usage of kernel memory.
TCP receiver might announce a big window, and TCP sender autotuning
might allow a large amount of bytes in write queue, but this has little
performance impact if a large part of this buffering is wasted :
Write queue needs to be large only to deal with large BDP, not
necessarily to cope with scheduling delays (incoming ACKS make room
for the application to queue more bytes)
For most workloads, using a value of 128 KB or less is OK to give
applications enough time to react to POLLOUT events in time
(or being awaken in a blocking sendmsg())
This patch adds two ways to set the limit :
1) Per socket option TCP_NOTSENT_LOWAT
2) A sysctl (/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_notsent_lowat) for sockets
not using TCP_NOTSENT_LOWAT socket option (or setting a zero value)
Default value being UINT_MAX (0xFFFFFFFF), meaning this has no effect.
This changes poll()/select()/epoll() to report POLLOUT
only if number of unsent bytes is below tp->nosent_lowat
Note this might increase number of sendmsg()/sendfile() calls
when using non blocking sockets,
and increase number of context switches for blocking sockets.
Note this is not related to SO_SNDLOWAT (as SO_SNDLOWAT is
defined as :
Specify the minimum number of bytes in the buffer until
the socket layer will pass the data to the protocol)
Tested:
netperf sessions, and watching /proc/net/protocols "memory" column for TCP
With 200 concurrent netperf -t TCP_STREAM sessions, amount of kernel memory
used by TCP buffers shrinks by ~55 % (20567 pages instead of 45458)

Using 128KB has no bad effect on the throughput or cpu usage
of a single flow, although there is an increase of context switches.
A bonus is that we hold socket lock for a shorter amount
of time and should improve latencies of ACK processing.

The current state of affairs is that read()/write() will setup

poll()/epoll() does not.
When poll() gets called with a TCP or UDP socket, we should update

This permits to RFS (if enabled) to select the appropriate CPU for
following incoming packets.
Note: Only connected UDP sockets can benefit from RFS.

In the case where a non-MPLS packet is received and an MPLS stack is
added it may well be the case that the original skb is GSO but the
NIC used for transmit does not support GSO of MPLS packets.
The aim of this code is to provide GSO in software for MPLS packets
whose skbs are GSO.
SKB Usage:
When an implementation adds an MPLS stack to a non-MPLS packet it should do
the following to skb metadata:
* Set skb->inner_protocol to the old non-MPLS ethertype of the packet.
skb->inner_protocol is added by this patch.
* Set skb->protocol to the new MPLS ethertype of the packet.
* Set skb->network_header to correspond to the
end of the L3 header, including the MPLS label stack.
I have posted a patch, "[PATCH v3.29] datapath: Add basic MPLS support to
kernel" which adds MPLS support to the kernel datapath of Open vSwtich.
That patch sets the above requirements in datapath/actions.c:push_mpls()
and was used to exercise this code. The datapath patch is against the Open
vSwtich tree but it is intended that it be added to the Open vSwtich code
present in the mainline Linux kernel at some point.
Features:
I believe that the approach that I have taken is at least partially
consistent with the handling of other protocols. Jesse, I understand that
you have some ideas here. I am more than happy to change my implementation.
This patch adds dev->mpls_features which may be used by devices
to advertise features supported for MPLS packets.
A new NETIF_F_MPLS_GSO feature is added for devices which support
hardware MPLS GSO offload. Currently no devices support this
and MPLS GSO always falls back to software.
Alternate Implementation:
One possible alternate implementation is to teach netif_skb_features()
and skb_network_protocol() about MPLS, in a similar way to their
understanding of VLANs. I believe this would avoid the need
for net/mpls/mpls_gso.c and in particular the calls to
__skb_push() and __skb_push() in mpls_gso_segment().
I have decided on the implementation in this patch as it should
not introduce any overhead in the case where mpls_gso is not compiled
into the kernel or inserted as a module.
MPLS GSO suggested by Jesse Gross.

GSO TCP handler has following issues :
1) ooo_okay from original GSO packet is duplicated to all segments
2) segments (but the last one) are orphaned, so transmit path can not
get transmit queue number from the socket. This happens if GSO
segmentation is done before stacked device for example.
Result is we can send packets from a given TCP flow to different TX
queues (if using multiqueue NICS). This generates OOO problems and
spurious SACK & retransmits.
Fix this by keeping socket pointer set for all segments.
This means that every segment must also have a destructor, and the
original gso skb truesize must be split on all segments, to keep
precise sk->sk_wmem_alloc accounting.

I noticed that TSQ (TCP Small queues) was less effective when TSO is
turned off, and GSO is on. If BQL is not enabled, TSQ has then no
effect.
It turns out the GSO engine frees the original gso_skb at the time the
fragments are generated and queued to the NIC.
We should instead call the tcp_wfree() destructor for the last fragment,
to keep the flow control as intended in TSQ. This effectively limits
the number of queued packets on qdisc + NIC layers.

tx_flags is better compared to gso_type since we can have skb with

GSO, So there is no need to define netdev feature for this.

Pravin Shelar mentioned that GSO could potentially generate
wrong TX checksum if skb has fragments that are overwritten
by the user between the checksum computation and transmit.
He suggested to linearize skbs but this extra copy can be
avoided for normal tcp skbs cooked by tcp_sendmsg().
This patch introduces a new SKB_GSO_SHARED_FRAG flag, set
in skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_type if at least one frag can be

Typical sources of such possible overwrites are {vm}splice(),
sendfile(), and macvtap/tun/virtio_net drivers.

TCP coalescing added a regression in splice(socket->pipe) performance,
for some workloads because of the way tcp_read_sock() is implemented.
The reason for this is the break when (offset + 1 != skb->len).
As we released the socket lock, this condition is possible if TCP stack
added a fragment to the skb, which can happen with TCP coalescing.
So let's go back to the beginning of the loop when this happens,
to give a chance to splice more frags per system call.
Doing so fixes the issue and makes GRO 10% faster than LRO
on CPU-bound splice() workloads instead of the opposite.

As a result, a machine with 4GB of ram gets a hash table

According to the initial realization v3.4-rc2-963-gc0e88ff,

according with this sentence.
Here are three points, which were not done in the initial patch:
1. A tcp send head should not be changed
2. Initialize TSO state of a skb
3. Reset the retransmission time
This patch moves logic from tcp_sendmsg to tcp_write_xmit. A packet
passes the ussual way, but isn't sent to network. This patch solves
all described problems and handles tcp_sendpages.

We currently use a per socket order-0 page cache for tcp_sendmsg()
operations.
This page is used to build fragments for skbs.
Its done to increase probability of coalescing small write() into
single segments in skbs still in write queue (not yet sent)
But it wastes a lot of memory for applications handling many mostly
idle sockets, since each socket holds one page in sk->sk_sndmsg_page
Its also quite inefficient to build TSO 64KB packets, because we need
about 16 pages per skb on arches where PAGE_SIZE = 4096, so we hit
page allocator more than wanted.
This patch adds a per task frag allocator and uses bigger pages,
if available. An automatic fallback is done in case of memory pressure.
(up to 32768 bytes per frag, thats order-3 pages on x86)
This increases TCP stream performance by 20% on loopback device,
but also benefits on other network devices, since 8x less frags are
mapped on transmit and unmapped on tx completion. Alexander Duyck
mentioned a probable performance win on systems with IOMMU enabled.
Its possible some SG enabled hardware cant cope with bigger fragments,
but their ndo_start_xmit() should already handle this, splitting a
fragment in sub fragments, since some arches have PAGE_SIZE=65536

rcv_wscale is a symetric parameter with snd_wscale.
Both this parameters are set on a connection handshake.
Without this value a remote window size can not be interpreted correctly,
because a value from a packet should be shifted on rcv_wscale.
And one more thing is that wscale_ok should be set too.
This patch doesn't break a backward compatibility.
If someone uses it in a old scheme, a rcv window
will be restored with the same bug (rcv_wscale = 0).
v2: Save backward compatibility on big-endian system. Before
the first two bytes were snd_wscale and the second two bytes were
rcv_wscale. Now snd_wscale is opt_val & 0xFFFF and rcv_wscale >> 16.
This approach is independent on byte ordering.

If recv() syscall is called for a TCP socket so that
- IOAT DMA is used
- MSG_WAITALL flag is used
- requested length is bigger than sk_rcvbuf
- enough data has already arrived to bring rcv_wnd to zero
then when tcp_recvmsg() gets to calling sk_wait_data(), receive
window can be still zero while sk_async_wait_queue exhausts
enough space to keep it zero. As this queue isn't cleaned until
the tcp_service_net_dma() call, sk_wait_data() cannot receive

This patch builds on top of the previous patch to add the support
for TFO listeners. This includes -
1. allocating, properly initializing, and managing the per listener
fastopen_queue structure when TFO is enabled
2. changes to the inet_csk_accept code to support TFO. E.g., the
request_sock can no longer be freed upon accept(), not until 3WHS
finishes
3. allowing a TCP_SYN_RECV socket to properly poll() and sendmsg()
if it's a TFO socket
4. properly closing a TFO listener, and a TFO socket before 3WHS
finishes
5. supporting TCP_FASTOPEN socket option
6. modifying tcp_check_req() to use to check a TFO socket as well
as request_sock
7. supporting TCP's TFO cookie option
8. adding a new SYN-ACK retransmit handler to use the timer directly
off the TFO socket rather than the listener socket. Note that TFO
server side will not retransmit anything other than SYN-ACK until
the 3WHS is completed.
The patch also contains an important function
"reqsk_fastopen_remove()" to manage the somewhat complex relation
between a listener, its request_sock, and the corresponding child
socket. See the comment above the function for the detail.

sendmsg() (or sendto()) with MSG_FASTOPEN is a combo of connect(2)
and write(2). The application should replace connect() with it to
send data in the opening SYN packet.
For blocking socket, sendmsg() blocks until all the data are buffered
locally and the handshake is completed like connect() call. It
returns similar errno like connect() if the TCP handshake fails.
For non-blocking socket, it returns the number of bytes queued (and
transmitted in the SYN-data packet) if cookie is available. If cookie
is not available, it transmits a data-less SYN packet with Fast Open
cookie request option and returns -EINPROGRESS like connect().
Using MSG_FASTOPEN on connecting or connected socket will result in
simlar errno like repeating connect() calls. Therefore the application
should only use this flag on new sockets.
The buffer size of sendmsg() is independent of the MSS of the connection.

This introduce TSQ (TCP Small Queues)
TSQ goal is to reduce number of TCP packets in xmit queues (qdisc &
device queues), to reduce RTT and cwnd bias, part of the bufferbloat
problem.
sk->sk_wmem_alloc not allowed to grow above a given limit,
allowing no more than ~128KB [1] per tcp socket in qdisc/dev layers at a
given time.
TSO packets are sized/capped to half the limit, so that we have two
TSO packets in flight, allowing better bandwidth use.
As a side effect, setting the limit to 40000 automatically reduces the
standard gso max limit (65536) to 40000/2 : It can help to reduce
latencies of high prio packets, having smaller TSO packets.
This means we divert sock_wfree() to a tcp_wfree() handler, to
queue/send following frames when skb_orphan() [2] is called for the
already queued skbs.
Results on my dev machines (tg3/ixgbe nics) are really impressive,
using standard pfifo_fast, and with or without TSO/GSO.
Without reduction of nominal bandwidth, we have reduction of buffering
per bulk sender :
< 1ms on Gbit (instead of 50ms with TSO)
< 8ms on 100Mbit (instead of 132 ms)
I no longer have 4 MBytes backlogged in qdisc by a single netperf
session, and both side socket autotuning no longer use 4 Mbytes.
As skb destructor cannot restart xmit itself ( as qdisc lock might be
taken at this point ), we delegate the work to a tasklet. We use one
tasklest per cpu for performance reasons.
If tasklet finds a socket owned by the user, it sets TSQ_OWNED flag.
This flag is tested in a new protocol method called from release_sock(),
to eventually send new segments.
[1] New /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_limit_output_bytes tunable
[2] skb_orphan() is usually called at TX completion time,
but some drivers call it in their start_xmit() handler.
These drivers should at least use BQL, or else a single TCP
session can still fill the whole NIC TX ring, since TSQ will
have no effect.

Maintain a local hash table of TCP dynamic metrics blobs.
Computed TCP metrics are no longer maintained in the route metrics.
The table uses RCU and an extremely simple hash so that it has low
latency and low overhead. A simple hash is legitimate because we only
make metrics blobs for fully established connections.
Some tweaking of the default hash table sizes, metric timeouts, and
the hash chain length limit certainly could use some tweaking. But

UDP stack needs a minimum hash size value for proper operation and also
uses alloc_large_system_hash() for proper NUMA distribution of its hash
tables and automatic sizing depending on available system memory.
On some low memory situations, udp_table_init() must ignore the
alloc_large_system_hash() result and reallocs a bigger memory area.
As we cannot easily free old hash table, we leak it and kmemleak can
issue a warning.
This patch adds a low limit parameter to alloc_large_system_hash() to
solve this problem.
We then specify UDP_HTABLE_SIZE_MIN for UDP/UDPLite hash table
allocation.

Since recent changes on TCP splicing (starting with commits 2f533844
"tcp: allow splice() to build full TSO packets" and 35f9c09f "tcp:
tcp_sendpages() should call tcp_push() once"), I started seeing
massive stalls when forwarding traffic between two sockets using
splice() when pipe buffers were larger than socket buffers.
Latest changes (net: netdev_alloc_skb() use build_skb()) made the
problem even more apparent.
The reason seems to be that if do_tcp_sendpages() fails on out of memory
condition without being able to send at least one byte, tcp_push() is not
called and the buffers cannot be flushed.
After applying the attached patch, I cannot reproduce the stalls at all
and the data rate it perfectly stable and steady under any condition
which previously caused the problem to be permanent.
The issue seems to have been there since before the kernel migrated to
git, which makes me think that the stalls I occasionally experienced
with tux during stress-tests years ago were probably related to the
same issue.
This issue was first encountered on 3.0.31 and 3.2.17, so please backport
to -stable.

This gives good results especially if GRO could not kick, and if skb
head is a fragment.

tcp_adv_win_scale default value is 2, meaning we expect a good citizen
skb to have skb->len / skb->truesize ratio of 75% (3/4)
In 2.6 kernels we (mis)accounted for typical MSS=1460 frame :
1536 + 64 + 256 = 1856 'estimated truesize', and 1856 * 3/4 = 1392.
So these skbs were considered as not bloated.
With recent truesize fixes, a typical MSS=1460 frame truesize is now the
more precise :
2048 + 256 = 2304. But 2304 * 3/4 = 1728.
So these skb are not good citizen anymore, because 1460 < 1728
(GRO can escape this problem because it build skbs with a too low
truesize.)
This also means tcp advertises a too optimistic window for a given
allocated rcvspace : When receiving frames, sk_rmem_alloc can hit
sk_rcvbuf limit and we call tcp_prune_queue()/tcp_collapse() too often,
especially when application is slow to drain its receive queue or in
case of losses (netperf is fast, scp is slow). This is a major latency
source.
We should adjust the len/truesize ratio to 50% instead of 75%
This patch :
1) changes tcp_adv_win_scale default to 1 instead of 2
2) increase tcp_rmem[2] limit from 4MB to 6MB to take into account
better truesize tracking and to allow autotuning tcp receive window to
reach same value than before. Note that same amount of kernel memory is
consumed compared to 2.6 kernels.

This patch implements RFC 5827 early retransmit (ER) for TCP.
It reduces DUPACK threshold (dupthresh) if outstanding packets are
less than 4 to recover losses by fast recovery instead of timeout.
While the algorithm is simple, small but frequent network reordering
makes this feature dangerous: the connection repeatedly enter
false recovery and degrade performance. Therefore we implement
a mitigation suggested in the appendix of the RFC that delays
entering fast recovery by a small interval, i.e., RTT/4. Currently
ER is conservative and is disabled for the rest of the connection
after the first reordering event. A large scale web server
experiment on the performance impact of ER is summarized in
section 6 of the paper "Proportional Rate Reduction for TCP”,
IMC 2011. http://conferences.sigcomm.org/imc/2011/docs/p155.pdf
Note that Linux has a similar feature called THIN_DUPACK. The
differences are THIN_DUPACK do not mitigate reorderings and is only
used after slow start. Currently ER is disabled if THIN_DUPACK is
enabled. I would be happy to merge THIN_DUPACK feature with ER if
people think it's a good idea.
ER is enabled by sysctl_tcp_early_retrans:
0: Disables ER
1: Reduce dupthresh to packets_out - 1 when outstanding packets < 4.
2: (Default) reduce dupthresh like mode 1. In addition, delay
entering fast recovery by RTT/4.
Note: mode 2 is implemented in the third part of this patch series.

Don't pick __u8/__u16 values directly from raw pointers, but instead use
an array of structures of code:value pairs. This is OK, since the buffer
we take options from is not an skb memory, but a user-to-kernel one.
For those options which don't require any value now, require this to be
zero (for potential future extension of this API).

This commit moves the (substantial) common code shared between
tcp_v4_init_sock() and tcp_v6_init_sock() to a new address-family
independent function, tcp_init_sock().
Centralizing this functionality should help avoid drift issues,
e.g. where the IPv4 side is updated without a corresponding update to
IPv6. There was already some drift: IPv4 initialized snd_cwnd to
TCP_INIT_CWND, while the IPv6 side was still initializing snd_cwnd to
2 (in this case it should not matter, since snd_cwnd is also
initialized in tcp_init_metrics(), but the general risks and
maintenance overhead remain).
When diffing the old and new code, note that new tcp_init_sock()
function uses the order of steps from the tcp_v4_init_sock()
implementation (the order is slightly different in
tcp_v6_init_sock()).

There are options, which are set up on a socket while performing
TCP handshake. Need to resurrect them on a socket while repairing.
A new sockoption accepts a buffer and parses it. The buffer should
be CODE:VALUE sequence of bytes, where CODE is standard option
code and VALUE is the respective value.
Only 4 options should be handled on repaired socket.
To read 3 out of 4 of these options the TCP_INFO sockoption can be
used. An ability to get the last one (the mss_clamp) was added by
the previous patch.
Now the restore. Three of these options -- timestamp_ok, mss_clamp
and snd_wscale -- are just restored on a coket.
The sack_ok flags has 2 issues. First, whether or not to do sacks
at all. This flag is just read and set back. No other sack info is
saved or restored, since according to the standart and the code
dropping all sack-ed segments is OK, the sender will resubmit them
again, so after the repair we will probably experience a pause in
connection. Next, the fack bit. It's just set back on a socket if
the respective sysctl is set. No collected stats about packets flow
is preserved. As far as I see (plz, correct me if I'm wrong) the
fack-based congestion algorithm survives dropping all of the stats
and repairs itself eventually, probably losing the performance for
that period.

Reading queues under repair mode is done with recvmsg call.
The queue-under-repair set by TCP_REPAIR_QUEUE option is used
to determine which queue should be read. Thus both send and
receive queue can be read with this.
Caller must pass the MSG_PEEK flag.
Writing to queues is done with sendmsg call and yet again --
the repair-queue option can be used to push data into the
receive queue.
When putting an skb into receive queue a zero tcp header is
appented to its head to address the tcp_hdr(skb)->syn and
the ->fin checks by the (after repair) tcp_recvmsg. These
flags flags are both set to zero and that's why.
The fin cannot be met in the queue while reading the source
socket, since the repair only works for closed/established
sockets and queueing fin packet always changes its state.
The syn in the queue denotes that the respective skb's seq
is "off-by-one" as compared to the actual payload lenght. Thus,
at the rcv queue refill we can just drop this flag and set the
skb's sequences to precice values.
When the repair mode is turned off, the write queue seqs are
updated so that the whole queue is considered to be 'already sent,
waiting for ACKs' (write_seq = snd_nxt <= snd_una). From the
protocol POV the send queue looks like it was sent, but the data
between the write_seq and snd_nxt is lost in the network.
This helps to avoid another sockoption for setting the snd_nxt
sequence. Leaving the whole queue in a 'not yet sent' state (as
it will be after sendmsg-s) will not allow to receive any acks
from the peer since the ack_seq will be after the snd_nxt. Thus
even the ack for the window probe will be dropped and the
connection will be 'locked' with the zero peer window.

This includes (according the the previous description):
* TCP_REPAIR sockoption
This one just puts the socket in/out of the repair mode.
Allowed for CAP_NET_ADMIN and for closed/establised sockets only.
When repair mode is turned off and the socket happens to be in
the established state the window probe is sent to the peer to
'unlock' the connection.
* TCP_REPAIR_QUEUE sockoption
This one sets the queue which we're about to repair. The
'no-queue' is set by default.
* TCP_QUEUE_SEQ socoption
Sets the write_seq/rcv_nxt of a selected repaired queue.
Allowed for TCP_CLOSE-d sockets only. When the socket changes
its state the other seq-s are changed by the kernel according
to the protocol rules (most of the existing code is actually
reused).
* Ability to forcibly bind a socket to a port
The sk->sk_reuse is set to SK_FORCE_REUSE.
* Immediate connect modification
The connect syscall initializes the connection, then directly jumps
to the code which finalizes it.
* Silent close modification
The close just aborts the connection (similar to SO_LINGER with 0
time) but without sending any FIN/RST-s to peer.

3) Correct default TCP memory limits (again), from Eric Dumazet.

5) We made a facility for layers like wireless to say how much tailroom
they need in the SKB for link layer stuff such as wireless
encryption etc., but TCP works hard to fill every SKB out to the end
defeating this specification.
This leads to every TCP packet getting reallocated by the wireless
code in order to have the right amount of tailroom available.
Fix TCP to only fill SKBs out to the real amount of data area it
asked for during the allocation, this way it won't eat into the
slack added for the device's tailroom needs.

Marc Merlin reported many order-1 allocations failures in TX path on its
wireless setup, that dont make any sense with MTU=1500 network, and non
SG capable hardware.
After investigation, it turns out TCP uses sk_stream_alloc_skb() and
used as a convention skb_tailroom(skb) to know how many bytes of data
payload could be put in this skb (for non SG capable devices)
Note : these skb used kmalloc-4096 (MTU=1500 + MAX_HEADER +
sizeof(struct skb_shared_info) being above 2048)
Later, mac80211 layer need to add some bytes at the tail of skb
(IEEE80211_ENCRYPT_TAILROOM = 18 bytes) and since no more tailroom is
available has to call pskb_expand_head() and request order-1
allocations.
This patch changes sk_stream_alloc_skb() so that only
sk->sk_prot->max_header bytes of headroom are reserved, and use a new
skb field, avail_size to hold the data payload limit.
This way, order-0 allocations done by TCP stack can leave more than 2 KB
of tailroom and no more allocation is performed in mac80211 layer (or
any layer needing some tailroom)
avail_size is unioned with mark/dropcount, since mark will be set later
in IP stack for output packets. Therefore, skb size is unchanged.
