TCP_NV will try to get the base RTT from a socket_ops BPF program if one is loaded. NV will then use the base RTT to bound its min RTT (its notion of the base RTT). It uses the base RTT as an upper bound and 80% of the base RTT as its lower bound. In other words, NV will consider filtered RTTs larger than base RTT as a sign of congestion. As a result, there is no minRTT inflation when there is a lot of congestion. For example, in a DC where the RTTs are less than 40us when there is no congestion, a base RTT value of 80us improves the performance of NV. The difference between the uncongested RTT and the base RTT provided represents how much queueing we are willing to have (in practice it can be higher). NV has been tunned to reduce congestion when there are many flows at the cost of one flow not achieving full bandwith utilization. When a reasonable base RTT is provided, one NV flow can now fully utilize the full bandwidth. In addition, the performance is also improved when there are many flows. In the following examples the NV results are using a kernel with this patch set (i.e. both NV results are using the new nv_loss_dec_factor). With one host sending to another host and only one flow the goodputs are: Cubic: 9.3 Gbps, NV: 5.5 Gbps, NV (baseRTT=80us): 9.2 Gbps With 2 hosts sending to one host (1 flow per host, the goodput per flow is: Cubic: 4.6 Gbps, NV: 4.5 Gbps, NV (baseRTT=80us)L 4.6 Gbps But the RTTs seen by a ping process in the sender is: Cubic: 3.3ms NV: 97us, NV (baseRTT=80us): 146us With a lot of flows things look even better for NV with baseRTT. Here we have 3 hosts sending to one host. Each sending host has 6 flows: 1 stream, 4x1MB RPC, 1x10KB RPC. Cubic, NV and NV with baseRTT all fully utilize the full available bandwidth. However, the distribution of bandwidth among the flows is very different. For the 10KB RPC flow: Cubic: 27Mbps, NV: 111Mbps, NV (baseRTT=80us): 222Mbps The 99% latencies for the 10KB flows are: Cubic: 26ms, NV: 1ms, NV (baseRTT=80us): 500us The RTT seen by a ping process at the senders: Cubic: 3.2ms NV: 720us, NV (baseRTT=80us): 330us Signed-off-by:

A congestion control algorithm can make a call to the BPF socket_ops program to request the base RTT. The base RTT can be congestion control dependent and is meant to represent a congestion threshold such that RTTs above it indicate congestion. This is especially useful for flows within a DC where the base RTT is easy to obtain. Being provided a base RTT solves a basic problem in RTT based congestion avoidance algorithms (such as Vegas, NV and BBR). Although it is easy to get the base RTT when the network is not congested, it is very diffcult to do when it is very congested. Newer connections get an inflated value of the base RTT leading to unfariness (newer flows with a larger base RTT get more bandwidth). As a result, RTT based congestion avoidance algorithms tend to update their base RTTs to improve fairness. In very congested networks this can lead to base RTT inflation, reducing the ability of these RTT based congestion control algorithms to prevent congestion. Note that in my experiments with TCP-NV, the base RTT provided can be much larger than the actual hardware RTT. For example, experimenting with hosts within a rack where the hardware RTT is 16-20us, I've used base RTTs up to 150us. The effect of using a larger base RTT is that the congestion avoidance algorithm will allow more queueing. When there are only a few flows the main effect is larger measured RTTs and RPC latencies due to the increased queueing. When there are a lot of flows, a larger base RTT can lead to more congestion and more packet drops. For this case, where the hardware RTT is 20us, a base RTT of 80us produces good results. This patch only introduces BPF_SOCK_OPS_BASE_RTT, a later patch in this set adds support for using it in TCP-NV. Further study and testing is needed before support can be added to other delay based congestion avoidance algorithms. Signed-off-by:

Egil Hjelmeland says: ==================== net: dsa: lan9303: Add fdb/mdb methods This series add support for accessing and managing the lan9303 ALR (Address Logic Resolution). The first patch add low level functions for accessing the ALR, along with port_fast_age and port_fdb_dump methods. The second patch add functions for managing ALR entires, along with remaining fdb/mdb methods. Note that to complete STP support, a special ALR entry with the STP eth address must be added too. This must be addressed later. Comments welcome! Changes v2 -> v3: - Whitespace polishing. Removed some "section" comments. - Prefixed ALR constants with LAN9303_ for consistency. - Patch 2: lan9303_port_fast_age() wrap the "port" into a struct for passing as context to alr_loop_cb_del_port_learned.

Add functions for managing the lan9303 ALR (Address Logic Resolution). Implement DSA methods: port_fdb_add, port_fdb_del, port_mdb_prepare, port_mdb_add and port_mdb_del. Since the lan9303 do not offer reading specific ALR entry, the driver caches all static entries - in a flat table. Signed-off-by:

Elena Reshetova says: ==================== networking drivers refcount_t conversions Note: these are the last patches related to networking that perform conversion of refcounters from atomic_t to refcount_t. In contrast to the core network refcounter conversions that were merged earlier, these are much more straightforward ones. This series, for various networking drivers, replaces atomic_t reference counters with the new refcount_t type and API (see include/linux/refcount.h). By doing this we prevent intentional or accidental underflows or overflows that can led to use-after-free vulnerabilities. The patches are fully independent and can be cherry-picked separately. Patches are based on top of net-next. If there are no objections to the patches, please merge them via respective trees ==================== Signed-off-by: -

atomic_t variables are currently used to implement reference counters with the following properties: - counter is initialized to 1 using atomic_set() - a resource is freed upon counter reaching zero - once counter reaches zero, its further increments aren't allowed - counter schema uses basic atomic operations (set, inc, inc_not_zero, dec_and_test, etc.) Such atomic variables should be converted to a newly provided refcount_t type and API that prevents accidental counter overflows and underflows. This is important since overflows and underflows can lead to use-after-free situation and be exploitable. The variable cn_callback_entry.refcnt is used as pure reference counter. Convert it to refcount_t and fix up the operations. Suggested-by:

The eBPF instruction permitting to load double words (8 bytes) into a register need 8-byte long "immediate" field, and thus occupy twice the space of other instructions. bpftool was aware of this and would increment the instruction counter only once on meeting such instruction, but it would only print the first four bytes of the immediate value to load.
