Eric Dumazet says: ==================== tcp: final work on SYNFLOOD behavior In the first patch, I remove the costly association of SYNACK+COOKIES to a listener. I believe other parts of the stack should be ready. The second patch removes a useless write into listener socket in tcp_rcv_state_process(), incurring false sharing in tcp_conn_request() Performance under SYNFLOOD goes from 3.2 Mpps to 6 Mpps. Test was using a single TCP listener, on a host with 8 RX queues on the NIC, and 24 cores (48 ht) ==================== Signed-off-by: -

Last known hot point during SYNFLOOD attack is the clearing of rx_opt.saw_tstamp in tcp_rcv_state_process() It is not needed for a listener, so we move it where it matters. Performance while a SYNFLOOD hits a single listener socket went from 5 Mpps to 6 Mpps on my test server (24 cores, 8 NIC RX queues) Signed-off-by:

When removing sk_refcnt manipulation on synflood, I missed that using skb_set_owner_w() was racy, if sk->sk_wmem_alloc had already transitioned to 0. We should hold sk_refcnt instead, but this is a big deal under attack. (Doing so increase performance from 3.2 Mpps to 3.8 Mpps only) In this patch, I chose to not attach a socket to syncookies skb. Performance is now 5 Mpps instead of 3.2 Mpps. Following patch will remove last known false sharing in tcp_rcv_state_process() Fixes: 3b24d854 ("tcp/dccp: do not touch listener sk_refcnt under synflood") Signed-off-by:

Replace deprecated create_singlethread_workqueue with alloc_ordered_workqueue. Work items include getting tx/rx frame sizes, resetting MPI processor, setting asic recovery bit so ordering seems necessary as only one work item should be in queue/executing at any given time, hence the use of alloc_ordered_workqueue. WQ_MEM_RECLAIM flag has been set since ethernet devices seem to sit in memory reclaim path, so to guarantee forward progress regardless of memory pressure. Signed-off-by:

According to the link FSM, a received traffic packet can take a link from state ESTABLISHING to ESTABLISHED, but the link can still not be fully set up in one atomic operation. This means that even if the the very first packet on the link is a traffic packet with sequence number 1 (one), it has to be dropped and retransmitted. This can be avoided if we let the mentioned packet be preceded by a LINK_PROTOCOL/STATE message, which takes up the endpoint before the arrival of the traffic. We add this small feature in this commit. This is a fully compatible change. Acked-by:

In some link establishment scenarios we see that packet #2 may be sent out before packet #1, forcing the receiver to demand retransmission of the missing packet. This is harmless, but may cause confusion among people tracing the packet flow. Since this is extremely easy to fix, we do so by adding en extra send call to the bearer immediately after the link has come up. Acked-by:

The function tipc_link_timeout() is unnecessary complex, and can easily be made more readable. We do that with this commit. The only functional change is that we remove a redundant test for whether the broadcast link is up or not. Acked-by:

When a link is down, it will continuously try to re-establish contact with the peer by sending out a RESET or an ACTIVATE message at each timeout interval. The default value for this interval is currently 375 ms. This is wasteful, and may become a problem in very large clusters with dozens or hundreds of nodes being down simultaneously. We now introduce a simple backoff algorithm for these cases. The first five messages are sent at default rate; thereafter a message is sent only each 16th timer interval. This will cover the vast majority of link recycling cases, since the endpoint starting last will transmit at the higher speed, and the link should normally be established well be before the rate needs to be reduced. The only case where we will see a degradation of link re-establishment times is when the endpoints remain intact, and a glitch in the transmission media is causing the link reset. We will then experience a worst-case re-establishing time of 6 seconds, something we deem acceptable. Acked-by:

Jon Paul Maloy authored
When a link endpoint is going down locally, e.g., because its interface is being stopped, it will spontaneously send out a RESET message to its peer, informing it about this fact. This saves the peer from detecting the failure via probing, and hence gives both speedier and less resource consuming failure detection on the peer side. According to the link FSM, a receiver of a RESET message, ignoring the reason for it, must now consider the sender ready to come back up, and starts periodically sending out ACTIVATE messages to the peer in order to re-establish the link. Also, according to the FSM, the receiver of an ACTIVATE message can now go directly to state ESTABLISHED and start sending regular traffic packets. This is a well-proven and robust FSM. However, in the case of a reboot, there is a small possibilty that link endpoint on the rebooted node may have been re-created with a new bearer identity between the moment it sent its (pre-boot) RESET and the moment it receives the ACTIVATE from the peer. The new bearer identity cannot be known by the peer according to this scenario, since traffic headers don't convey such information. This is a problem, because both endpoints need to know the correct value of the peer's bearer id at any moment in time in order to be able to produce correct link events for their users. The only way to guarantee this is to enforce a full setup message exchange (RESET + ACTIVATE) even after the reboot, since those messages carry the bearer idientity in their header. In this commit we do this by introducing and setting a "stopping" bit in the header of the spontaneously generated RESET messages, informing the peer that the sender will not be immediately ready to re-establish the link. A receiver seeing this bit must act as if this were a locally detected connectivity failure, and hence has to go through a full two- way setup message exchange before any link can be re-established. Although never reported, this problem seems to have always been around. This protocol addition is fully backwards compatible. Acked-by:

This patch move the tun stats to a per cpu data structure, and protect the updates with u64_stats_update_begin()/u64_stats_update_end() or this_cpu_inc according to the stat type. The per cpu stats are aggregated by the newly added ndo_get_stats64 ops. Signed-off-by:

Remove the zero initialization in the sample programs where appropriate.

This patch converts all helpers that can use ARG_PTR_TO_RAW_STACK as argument type. For tc programs this is bpf_skb_load_bytes(), bpf_skb_get_tunnel_key(), bpf_skb_get_tunnel_opt(). For tracing, this optimizes bpf_get_current_comm() and bpf_probe_read(). The check in bpf_skb_load_bytes() for MAX_BPF_STACK can also be removed since the verifier already makes sure we stay within bounds on stack buffers. Signed-off-by:

Daniel Borkmann authored
When passing buffers from eBPF stack space into a helper function, we have ARG_PTR_TO_STACK argument type for helpers available. The verifier makes sure that such buffers are initialized, within boundaries, etc. However, the downside with this is that we have a couple of helper functions such as bpf_skb_load_bytes() that fill out the passed buffer in the expected success case anyway, so zero initializing them prior to the helper call is unneeded/wasted instructions in the eBPF program that can be avoided. Therefore, add a new helper function argument type called ARG_PTR_TO_RAW_STACK. The idea is to skip the STACK_MISC check in check_stack_boundary() and color the related stack slots as STACK_MISC after we checked all call arguments. Helper functions using ARG_PTR_TO_RAW_STACK must make sure that every path of the helper function will fill the provided buffer area, so that we cannot leak any uninitialized stack memory. This f.e. means that error paths need to memset() the buffers, but the expected fast-path doesn't have to do this anymore. Since there's no such helper needing more than at most one ARG_PTR_TO_RAW_STACK argument, we can keep it simple and don't need to check for multiple areas. Should in future such a use-case really appear, we have check_raw_mode() that will make sure we implement support for it first. Signed-off-by:

Currently, when the verifier checks calls in check_call() function, we call check_func_arg() for all 5 arguments e.g. to make sure expected types are correct. In some cases, we collect meta data (here: map pointer) to perform additional checks such as checking stack boundary on key/value sizes for subsequent arguments. As we're going to extend the meta data, add a generic struct bpf_call_arg_meta that we can use for passing into check_func_arg(). Signed-off-by:

This patch adds what's missing to properly support RPS and RFS on SCTP, as some of it is already implemented in common calls. Having support for RPS and RFS allows better scaling specially because not all NICs support hashing SCTP headers. Save the hash right when we dequeue a skb from inqueue so we do it only once per skb instead of per chunk. New sockets will then inherit the hash through sctp_copy_sock(). Signed-off-by:

Until now, the requests sent to topology server are queued to a workqueue by the generic server framework. These messages are processed by worker threads and trigger the registered callbacks. To reduce latency on uniprocessor systems, explicit rescheduling is performed using cond_resched() after MAX_RECV_MSG_COUNT(25) messages. This implementation on SMP systems leads to an subscriber refcnt error as described below: When a worker thread yields by calling cond_resched() in a SMP system, a new worker is created on another CPU to process the pending workitem. Sometimes the sleeping thread wakes up before the new thread finishes execution. This breaks the assumption on ordering and being single threaded. The fault is more frequent when MAX_RECV_MSG_COUNT is lowered. If the first thread was processing subscription create and the second thread processing close(), the close request will free the subscriber and the create request oops as follows: [31.224137] WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 266 at include/linux/kref.h:46 tipc_subscrb_rcv_cb+0x317/0x380 [tipc] [31.228143] CPU: 2 PID: 266 Comm: kworker/u8:1 Not tainted 4.5.0+ #97 [31.228377] Workqueue: tipc_rcv tipc_recv_work [tipc] [...] [31.228377] Call Trace: [31.228377] [<ffffffff812fbb6b>] dump_stack+0x4d/0x72 [31.228377] [<ffffffff8105a311>] __warn+0xd1/0xf0 [31.228377] [<ffffffff8105a3fd>] warn_slowpath_null+0x1d/0x20 [31.228377] [<ffffffffa0098067>] tipc_subscrb_rcv_cb+0x317/0x380 [tipc] [31.228377] [<ffffffffa00a4984>] tipc_receive_from_sock+0xd4/0x130 [tipc] [31.228377] [<ffffffffa00a439b>] tipc_recv_work+0x2b/0x50 [tipc] [31.228377] [<ffffffff81071925>] process_one_work+0x145/0x3d0 [31.246554] ---[ end trace c3882c9baa05a4fd ]--- [31.248327] BUG: spinlock bad magic on CPU#2, kworker/u8:1/266 [31.249119] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000428 [31.249323] IP: [<ffffffff81099d0c>] spin_dump+0x5c/0xe0 [31.249323] PGD 0 [31.249323] Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP In this commit, we - rename tipc_conn_shutdown() to tipc_conn_release(). - move connection release callback execution from tipc_close_conn() to a new function tipc_sock_release(), which is executed before we free the connection.

Alexander Duyck says: ==================== GRO Fixed IPv4 ID support and GSO partial support This patch series sets up a few different things. First it adds support for GRO of frames with a fixed IP ID value. This will allow us to perform GRO for frames that go through things like an IPv6 to IPv4 header translation. The second item we add is support for segmenting frames that are generated this way. Most devices only support an incrementing IP ID value, and in the case of TCP the IP ID can be ignored in many cases since the DF bit should be set. So we can technically segment these frames using existing TSO if we are willing to allow the IP ID to be mangled. As such I have added a matching feature for the new form of GRO/GSO called TCP IPv4 ID mangling. With this enabled we can assemble and disassemble a frame with the sequence number fixed and the only ill effect will be that the IPv4 ID will be altered which may or may not have any noticeable effect. As such I have defaulted the feature to disabled. The third item this patch series adds is support for partial GSO segmentation. Partial GSO segmentation allows us to split a large frame into two pieces. The first piece will have an even multiple of MSS worth of data and the headers before the one pointed to by csum_start will have been updated so that they are correct for if the data payload had already been segmented. By doing this we can do things such as precompute the outer header checksums for a frame to be segmented allowing us to perform TSO on devices that don't support tunneling, or tunneling with outer header checksums. This patch set is based on the net-next tree, but I included "net: remove netdevice gso_min_segs" in my tree as I assume it is likely to be applied before this patch set will and I wanted to avoid a merge conflict. v2: Fixed items reported by Jesse Gross fixed missing GSO flag in MPLS check adding DF check for MANGLEID Moved extra GSO feature checks into gso_features_check Rebased batches to account for "net: remove netdevice gso_min_segs" Driver patches from the first patch set should still be compatible. However I do have a few changes in them so I will submit a v2 of those to Jeff Kirsher once these patches are accepted into net-next.

This patch adds support for something I am referring to as GSO partial. The basic idea is that we can support a broader range of devices for segmentation if we use fixed outer headers and have the hardware only really deal with segmenting the inner header. The idea behind the naming is due to the fact that everything before csum_start will be fixed headers, and everything after will be the region that is handled by hardware. With the current implementation it allows us to add support for the following GSO types with an inner TSO_MANGLEID or TSO6 offload: NETIF_F_GSO_GRE NETIF_F_GSO_GRE_CSUM NETIF_F_GSO_IPIP NETIF_F_GSO_SIT NETIF_F_UDP_TUNNEL NETIF_F_UDP_TUNNEL_CSUM In the case of hardware that already supports tunneling we may be able to extend this further to support TSO_TCPV4 without TSO_MANGLEID if the hardware can support updating inner IPv4 headers.

This patch does two things. First it allows TCP to aggregate TCP frames with a fixed IPv4 ID field. As a result we should now be able to aggregate flows that were converted from IPv6 to IPv4. In addition this allows us more flexibility for future implementations of segmentation as we may be able to use a fixed IP ID when segmenting the flow. The second thing this does is that it places limitations on the outer IPv4 ID header in the case of tunneled frames. Specifically it forces the IP ID to be incrementing by 1 unless the DF bit is set in the outer IPv4 header. This way we can avoid creating overlapping series of IP IDs that could possibly be fragmented if the frame goes through GRO and is then resegmented via GSO. Signed-off-by:

This patch adds support for TSO using IPv4 headers with a fixed IP ID field. This is meant to allow us to do a lossless GRO in the case of TCP flows that use a fixed IP ID such as those that convert IPv6 header to IPv4 headers. In addition I am adding a feature that for now I am referring to TSO with IP ID mangling. Basically when this flag is enabled the device has the option to either output the flow with incrementing IP IDs or with a fixed IP ID regardless of what the original IP ID ordering was. This is useful in cases where the DF bit is set and we do not care if the original IP ID value is maintained. Signed-off-by:
