This patch moves retransmits_timed_out() from include/net/tcp.h
to tcp_timer.c, where it is used.

Krishna Kumar ea94ff3b55 net: Fix for dst_negative_advice
dst_negative_advice() should check for changed dst and reset
sk_tx_queue_mapping accordingly. Pass sock to the callers of
dst_negative_advice.

(sk_reset_txq is defined just for use by dst_negative_advice. The
only way I could find to get around this is to move dst_negative_()
from dst.h to dst.c, include sock.h in dst.c, etc)

Eric Dumazet c720c7e838 inet: rename some inet_sock fields
In order to have better cache layouts of struct sock (separate zones
for rx/tx paths), we need this preliminary patch.

Goal is to transfert fields used at lookup time in the first
read-mostly cache line (inside struct sock_common) and move sk_refcnt
to a separate cache line (only written by rx path)

This patch adds inet_ prefix to daddr, rcv_saddr, dport, num, saddr,
sport and id fields. This allows a future patch to define these
fields as macros, like sk_refcnt, without name clashes.

Damian Lukowski 6fa12c8503 Revert Backoff [v3]: Calculate TCP's connection close threshold as a time value.
RFC 1122 specifies two threshold values R1 and R2 for connection timeouts,
which may represent a number of allowed retransmissions or a timeout value.
Currently linux uses sysctl_tcp_retries{1,2} to specify the thresholds
in number of allowed retransmissions.

For any desired threshold R2 (by means of time) one can specify tcp_retries2
(by means of number of retransmissions) such that TCP will not time out
earlier than R2. This is the case, because the RTO schedule follows a fixed
pattern, namely exponential backoff.

However, the RTO behaviour is not predictable any more if RTO backoffs can be
reverted, as it is the case in the draft
"Make TCP more Robust to Long Connectivity Disruptions"
(http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-zimmermann-tcp-lcd).

In the worst case TCP would time out a connection after 3.2 seconds, if the
initial RTO equaled MIN_RTO and each backoff has been reverted.

This patch introduces a function retransmits_timed_out(N),
which calculates the timeout of a TCP connection, assuming an initial
RTO of MIN_RTO and N unsuccessful, exponentially backed-off retransmissions.

Whenever timeout decisions are made by comparing the retransmission counter
to some value N, this function can be used, instead.

The meaning of tcp_retries2 will be changed, as many more RTO retransmissions
can occur than the value indicates. However, it yields a timeout which is
similar to the one of an unpatched, exponentially backing off TCP in the same
scenario. As no application could rely on an RTO greater than MIN_RTO, there
should be no risk of a regression.

Damian Lukowski f1ecd5d9e7 Revert Backoff [v3]: Revert RTO on ICMP destination unreachable
Here, an ICMP host/network unreachable message, whose payload fits to
TCP's SND.UNA, is taken as an indication that the RTO retransmission has
not been lost due to congestion, but because of a route failure
somewhere along the path.
With true congestion, a router won't trigger such a message and the
patched TCP will operate as standard TCP.

This patch reverts one RTO backoff, if an ICMP host/network unreachable
message, whose payload fits to TCP's SND.UNA, arrives.
Based on the new RTO, the retransmission timer is reset to reflect the
remaining time, or - if the revert clocked out the timer - a retransmission
is sent out immediately.
Backoffs are only reverted, if TCP is in RTO loss recovery, i.e. if
there have been retransmissions and reversible backoffs, already.

Changes from v2:
1) Renaming of skb in tcp_v4_err() moved to another patch.
2) Reintroduced tcp_bound_rto() and __tcp_set_rto().
3) Fixed code comments.

Pavel Emelyanov 40b215e594 tcp: de-bloat a bit with factoring NET_INC_STATS_BH out
There are some places in TCP that select one MIB index to
bump snmp statistics like this:

	if (<something>)
		NET_INC_STATS_BH(<some_id>);
	else if (<something_else>)
		NET_INC_STATS_BH(<some_other_id>);
	...
	else
		NET_INC_STATS_BH(<default_id>);

or in a more tricky but still similar way.

On the other hand, this NET_INC_STATS_BH is a camouflaged
increment of percpu variable, which is not that small.

Factoring those cases out de-bloats 235 bytes on non-preemptible
i386 config and drives parts of the code into 80 columns.

David S. Miller ec0a196626 tcp: Revert 'process defer accept as established' changes.
This reverts two changesets, ec3c0982a2
("[TCP]: TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT updates - process as established") and
the follow-on bug fix 9ae27e0adb
("tcp: Fix slab corruption with ipv6 and tcp6fuzz").

This change causes several problems, first reported by Ingo Molnar
as a distcc-over-loopback regression where connections were getting
stuck.

Ilpo Järvinen first spotted the locking problems.  The new function
added by this code, tcp_defer_accept_check(), only has the
child socket locked, yet it is modifying state of the parent
listening socket.

Fixing that is non-trivial at best, because we can't simply just grab
the parent listening socket lock at this point, because it would
create an ABBA deadlock.  The normal ordering is parent listening
socket --> child socket, but this code path would require the
reverse lock ordering.

Next is a problem noticed by Vitaliy Gusev, he noted:

----------------------------------------
>--- a/net/ipv4/tcp_timer.c
>+++ b/net/ipv4/tcp_timer.c
>@@ -481,6 +481,11 @@ static void tcp_keepalive_timer (unsigned long data)
> 		goto death;
> 	}
>
>+	if (tp->defer_tcp_accept.request && sk->sk_state == TCP_ESTABLISHED) {
>+		tcp_send_active_reset(sk, GFP_ATOMIC);
>+		goto death;

Here socket sk is not attached to listening socket's request queue. tcp_done()
will not call inet_csk_destroy_sock() (and tcp_v4_destroy_sock() which should
release this sk) as socket is not DEAD. Therefore socket sk will be lost for
freeing.
----------------------------------------

Finally, Alexey Kuznetsov argues that there might not even be any
real value or advantage to these new semantics even if we fix all
of the bugs:

----------------------------------------
Hiding from accept() sockets with only out-of-order data only
is the only thing which is impossible with old approach. Is this really
so valuable? My opinion: no, this is nothing but a new loophole
to consume memory without control.
----------------------------------------

So revert this thing for now.

Change TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT implementation so that it transitions a
connection to ESTABLISHED after handshake is complete instead of
leaving it in SYN-RECV until some data arrvies. Place connection in
accept queue when first data packet arrives from slow path.

Benefits:
  - established connection is now reset if it never makes it
   to the accept queue

 - diagnostic state of established matches with the packet traces
   showing completed handshake

 - TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT timeouts are expressed in seconds and can now be
   enforced with reasonable accuracy instead of rounding up to next
   exponential back-off of syn-ack retry.

Hideo Aoki 3ab224be6d [NET] CORE: Introducing new memory accounting interface.
This patch introduces new memory accounting functions for each network
protocol. Most of them are renamed from memory accounting functions
for stream protocols. At the same time, some stream memory accounting
functions are removed since other functions do same thing.

Renaming:
	sk_stream_free_skb()		->	sk_wmem_free_skb()
	__sk_stream_mem_reclaim()	->	__sk_mem_reclaim()
	sk_stream_mem_reclaim()		->	sk_mem_reclaim()
	sk_stream_mem_schedule 		->    	__sk_mem_schedule()
	sk_stream_pages()      		->	sk_mem_pages()
	sk_stream_rmem_schedule()	->	sk_rmem_schedule()
	sk_stream_wmem_schedule()	->	sk_wmem_schedule()
	sk_charge_skb()			->	sk_mem_charge()

Removeing
	sk_stream_rfree():	consolidates into sock_rfree()
	sk_stream_set_owner_r(): consolidates into skb_set_owner_r()
	sk_stream_mem_schedule()

The following functions are added.
    	sk_has_account(): check if the protocol supports accounting
	sk_mem_uncharge(): do the opposite of sk_mem_charge()

In addition, to achieve consolidation, updating sk_wmem_queued is
removed from sk_mem_charge().

Next, to consolidate memory accounting functions, this patch adds
memory accounting calls to network core functions. Moreover, present
memory accounting call is renamed to new accounting call.

Finally we replace present memory accounting calls with new interface
in TCP and SCTP.

minimal renaming/moving done in this changeset to ease review.

Most of it is just changes of struct tcp_sock * to struct sock * parameters.

With this we move to a state closer to two interesting goals:

1. Generalisation of net/ipv4/tcp_diag.c, becoming inet_diag.c, being used
   for any INET transport protocol that has struct inet_hashinfo and are
   derived from struct inet_connection_sock. Keeps the userspace API, that will
   just not display DCCP sockets, while newer versions of tools can support
   DCCP.

2. INET generic transport pluggable Congestion Avoidance infrastructure, using

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 463c84b97f [NET]: Introduce inet_connection_sock
This creates struct inet_connection_sock, moving members out of struct
tcp_sock that are shareable with other INET connection oriented
protocols, such as DCCP, that in my private tree already uses most of
these members.

The functions that operate on these members were renamed, using a
inet_csk_ prefix while not being moved yet to a new file, so as to
ease the review of these changes.

David S. Miller b03efcfb21 [NET]: Transform skb_queue_len() binary tests into skb_queue_empty()
This is part of the grand scheme to eliminate the qlen
member of skb_queue_head, and subsequently remove the
'list' member of sk_buff.

Most users of skb_queue_len() want to know if the queue is
empty or not, and that's trivially done with skb_queue_empty()
which doesn't use the skb_queue_head->qlen member and instead
uses the queue list emptyness as the test.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 0e87506fcc [NET] Generalise tcp_listen_opt
This chunks out the accept_queue and tcp_listen_opt code and moves
them to net/core/request_sock.c and include/net/request_sock.h, to
make it useful for other transport protocols, DCCP being the first one
to use it.

Next patches will rename tcp_listen_opt to accept_sock and remove the
inline tcp functions that just call a reqsk_queue_ function.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 60236fdd08 [NET] Rename open_request to request_sock
Ok, this one just renames some stuff to have a better namespace and to
dissassociate it from TCP:

struct open_request  -> struct request_sock
tcp_openreq_alloc    -> reqsk_alloc
tcp_openreq_free     -> reqsk_free
tcp_openreq_fastfree -> __reqsk_free

With this most of the infrastructure closely resembles a struct
sock methods subset.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 2e6599cb89 [NET] Generalise TCP's struct open_request minisock infrastructure
Kept this first changeset minimal, without changing existing names to
ease peer review.

Basicaly tcp_openreq_alloc now receives the or_calltable, that in turn
has two new members:

->slab, that replaces tcp_openreq_cachep
->obj_size, to inform the size of the openreq descendant for
  a specific protocol

The protocol specific fields in struct open_request were moved to a
class hierarchy, with the things that are common to all connection
oriented PF_INET protocols in struct inet_request_sock, the TCP ones
in tcp_request_sock, that is an inet_request_sock, that is an
open_request.

I.e. this uses the same approach used for the struct sock class
hierarchy, with sk_prot indicating if the protocol wants to use the
open_request infrastructure by filling in sk_prot->rsk_prot with an
or_calltable.

Results? Performance is improved and TCP v4 now uses only 64 bytes per
open request minisock, down from 96 without this patch :-)

Next changeset will rename some of the structs, fields and functions
mentioned above, struct or_calltable is way unclear, better name it
struct request_sock_ops, s/struct open_request/struct request_sock/g,
etc.

Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
