2022-08-17tcp: Make SYN ACK RTO tunable by BPF programs with TFOJie Meng1-1/+1
Instead of the hardcoded TCP_TIMEOUT_INIT, this diff calls tcp_timeout_init to initiate req->timeout like the non TFO SYN ACK case.

2022-06-10net: keep sk->sk_forward_alloc as small as possibleEric Dumazet1-15/+4
Currently, tcp_memory_allocated can hit tcp_mem[] limits quite fast. Each TCP socket can forward allocate up to 2 MB of memory, even after flow became less active. 10,000 sockets can have reserved 20 GB of memory, and we have no shrinker in place to reclaim that. Instead of trying to reclaim the extra allocations in some places, just keep sk->sk_forward_alloc values as small as possible. This should not impact performance too much now we have per-cpu reserves: Changes to tcp_memory_allocated should not be too frequent. For sockets not using SO_RESERVE_MEM: - idle sockets (no packets in tx/rx queues) have zero forward alloc. - non idle sockets have a forward alloc smaller than one page. Note: - Removal of SK_RECLAIM_CHUNK and SK_RECLAIM_THRESHOLD is left to MPTCP maintainers as a follow up.

2021-01-23tcp: make TCP_USER_TIMEOUT accurate for zero window probesEnke Chen1-0/+18
The TCP_USER_TIMEOUT is checked by the 0-window probe timer. As the timer has backoff with a max interval of about two minutes, the actual timeout for TCP_USER_TIMEOUT can be off by up to two minutes. In this patch the TCP_USER_TIMEOUT is made more accurate by taking it into account when computing the timer value for the 0-window probes. This patch is similar to and builds on top of the one that made TCP_USER_TIMEOUT accurate for RTOs in commit b701a99e431d ("tcp: Add tcp_clamp_rto_to_user_timeout() helper to improve accuracy").

2021-01-18tcp: fix TCP_USER_TIMEOUT with zero windowEnke Chen1-7/+7
The TCP session does not terminate with TCP_USER_TIMEOUT when data remain untransmitted due to zero window. The number of unanswered zero-window probes (tcp_probes_out) is reset to zero with incoming acks irrespective of the window size, as described in tcp_probe_timer(): RFC 1122 4.2.2.17 requires the sender to stay open indefinitely as long as the receiver continues to respond probes. We support this by default and reset icsk_probes_out with incoming ACKs. This counter, however, is the wrong one to be used in calculating the duration that the window remains closed and data remain untransmitted. Thanks to Jonathan Maxwell <jmaxwell37@gmail.com> for diagnosing the actual issue. In this patch a new timestamp is introduced for the socket in order to track the elapsed time for the zero-window probes that have not been answered with any non-zero window ack.

2019-08-09tcp: add new tcp_mtu_probe_floor sysctlJosh Hunt1-1/+1
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.

This patch fixes this issue so TCP (fast open or not, passive or active) always conforms to the RFC6298. Note that tcp_enter_loss() is called only once during recurring timeouts.

2019-01-17tcp: retry more conservatively on local congestionYuchung Cheng1-5/+3
Previously when the sender fails to retransmit a data packet on timeout due to congestion in the local host (e.g. throttling in qdisc), it'll retry within an RTO up to 500ms. In low-RTT networks such as data-centers, RTO is often far below the default minimum 200ms (and the cap 500ms). Then local host congestion could trigger a retry storm pouring gas to the fire. Worse yet, the retry counter (icsk_retransmits) is not properly updated so the aggressive retry may exceed the system limit (15 rounds) until the packet finally slips through. On such rare events, it's wise to retry more conservatively (500ms) and update the stats properly to reflect these incidents and follow the system limit. Note that this is consistent with the behavior when a keep-alive probe is dropped due to local congestion.

2019-01-17tcp: always set retrans_stamp on recoveryYuchung Cheng1-20/+3
Previously TCP socket's retrans_stamp is not set if the retransmission has failed to send. As a result if a socket is experiencing local issues to retransmit packets, determining when to abort a socket is complicated w/o knowning the starting time of the recovery since retrans_stamp may remain zero. This complication causes sub-optimal behavior that TCP may use the latest, instead of the first, retransmission time to compute the elapsed time of a stalling connection due to local issues. Then TCP may disrecard TCP retries settings and keep retrying until it finally succeed: not a good idea when the local host is already strained. The simple fix is to always timestamp the start of a recovery. It's worth noting that retrans_stamp is also used to compare echo timestamp values to detect spurious recovery. This patch does not break that because retrans_stamp is still later than when the original packet was sent.

Therefore an active IPv6 Fast Open connection may incur one second RTO penalty to take on a new path after the second SYN retransmission uses a new flow label.

2018-11-24tcp: address problems caused by EDT misshapsEric Dumazet1-4/+6
When a qdisc setup including pacing FQ is dismantled and recreated, some TCP packets are sent earlier than instructed by TCP stack. TCP can be fooled when ACK comes back, because the following operation can return a negative value. tcp_time_stamp(tp) - tp->rx_opt.rcv_tsecr; Some paths in TCP stack were not dealing properly with this, this patch addresses four of them.

2018-11-21tcp: defer SACK compression after DupThreshEric Dumazet1-1/+1
Jean-Louis reported a TCP regression and bisected to recent SACK compression. After a loss episode (receiver not able to keep up and dropping packets because its backlog is full), linux TCP stack is sending a single SACK (DUPACK). Sender waits a full RTO timer before recovering losses. While RFC 6675 says in section 5, "Algorithm Details", (2) If DupAcks < DupThresh but IsLost (HighACK + 1) returns true -- indicating at least three segments have arrived above the current cumulative acknowledgment point, which is taken to indicate loss -- go to step (4). ... (4) Invoke fast retransmit and enter loss recovery as follows: there are old TCP stacks not implementing this strategy, and still counting the dupacks before starting fast retransmit. While these stacks probably perform poorly when receivers implement LRO/GRO, we should be a little more gentle to them. This patch makes sure we do not enable SACK compression unless 3 dupacks have been sent since last rcv_nxt update. Ideally we should even rearm the timer to send one or two more DUPACK if no more packets are coming, but that will be work aiming for linux-4.21. Many thanks to Jean-Louis for bisecting the issue, providing packet captures and testing this patch.

2018-10-15tcp: do not change tcp_wstamp_ns in tcp_mstamp_refreshEric Dumazet1-1/+1
In EDT design, I made the mistake of using tcp_wstamp_ns to store the last tcp_clock_ns() sample and to store the pacing virtual timer. This causes major regressions at high speed flows. Introduce tcp_clock_cache to store last tcp_clock_ns(). This is needed because some arches have slow high-resolution kernel time service. tcp_wstamp_ns is only updated when a packet is sent. Note that we can remove tcp_mstamp in the future since tcp_mstamp is essentially tcp_clock_cache/1000, so the apparent socket size increase is temporary.

2018-10-01tcp/fq: move back to CLOCK_MONOTONICEric Dumazet1-1/+1
In the recent TCP/EDT patch series, I switched TCP and sch_fq clocks from MONOTONIC to TAI, in order to meet the choice done earlier for sch_etf packet scheduler. But sure enough, this broke some setups were the TAI clock jumps forward (by almost 50 year...), as reported by Leonard Crestez. If we want to converge later, we'll probably need to add an skb field to differentiate the clock bases, or a socket option. In the meantime, an UDP application will need to use CLOCK_MONOTONIC base for its SCM_TXTIME timestamps if using fq packet scheduler.

Switch internal TCP skb->skb_mstamp to skb->skb_mstamp_ns, from usec units to nsec units.

2018-05-18tcp: add SACK compressionEric Dumazet1-0/+25
When TCP receives an out-of-order packet, it immediately sends a SACK packet, generating network load but also forcing the receiver to send 1-MSS pathological packets, increasing its RTX queue length/depth, and thus processing time. Wifi networks suffer from this aggressive behavior, but generally speaking, all these SACK packets add fuel to the fire when networks are under congestion. This patch adds a high resolution timer and tp->compressed_ack counter. Instead of sending a SACK, we program this timer with a small delay, based on RTT and capped to 1 ms : delay = min ( 5 % of RTT, 1 ms) If subsequent SACKs need to be sent while the timer has not yet expired, we simply increment tp->compressed_ack. When timer expires, a SACK is sent with the latest information. Whenever an ACK is sent (if data is sent, or if in-order data is received) timer is canceled. Note that tcp_sack_new_ofo_skb() is able to force a SACK to be sent if the sack blocks need to be shuffled, even if the timer has not expired. A new SNMP counter is added in the following patch. Two other patches add sysctls to allow changing the 1,000,000 and 44 values that this commit hard-coded.

Similar to a27fd7a8ed38 ('tcp: purge write queue upon RST'), this is essential for a correct MSG_ZEROCOPY implementation, because userspace cannot call close(fd) before receiving zerocopy signals even when the connection is aborted.
