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

This is primarily to address transmission timeout occurrences, when
multiple H/W Tx queues are being used concurrently. Because in
the priority scheduling mode the controller does not service the
Tx queues equally (but in ascending index order), Tx timeouts are
being triggered rightaway for a basic test with multiple simultaneous
connections like:
iperf -c <server_ip> -n 100M -P 8

resulting in kernel trace:
NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth1 (fsl-gianfar): transmit queue <X> timed out
------------[ cut here ]------------
WARNING: at net/sched/sch_generic.c:255
...
and controller reset during intense traffic, and possibly further
complications.

This patch changes the default H/W Tx scheduling setting (TXSCHED)
for multi-queue devices, from priority scheduling mode to a weighted
round robin mode with equal weights for all H/W Tx queues, and
addresses the issue above.

loopback current mtu of 16436 bytes allows no more than 3 MSS TCP
segments per frame, or 48 Kbytes. Changing mtu to 64K allows TCP
stack to build large frames and significantly reduces stack overhead.

Performance boost on bulk TCP transferts can be up to 30 %, partly
because we now have one ACK message for two 64KB segments, and a lower
probability of hitting /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_reordering default limit.

- Fix crash while removing nf_nat modules from Patrick McHardy.
- Fix unbalanced rcu_read_unlock from Ulrich Weber.
- Merge NETMAP and REDIRECT into one single xt_target module, from

* Updates for ipset, all of the from Jozsef Kadlecsik:

- Add the new "nomatch" option to obtain reverse set matching.
- Support for /0 CIDR in hash:net,iface set type.
- One non-critical fix for a rare crash due to pass really
  wrong configuration parameters.
- Coding style cleanups.
- Sparse fixes.
- Add set revision supported via modinfo.i

* One extension for the xt_time match, to support matching during

* Fix maximum packet length supported by nfnetlink_queue and add
  NFQA_CAP_LEN attribute, from myself.

You can notice that this batch contains a couple of fixes that may
go to 3.6-rc but I don't consider them critical to push them:

* The ipset fix for the /0 cidr case, which is triggered with one
  inconsistent command line invocation of ipset.

* The nfnetlink_queue maximum packet length supported since it requires

This patch adds the NFQA_CAP_LEN attribute that allows us to know
what is the real packet size from user-space (even if we decided
to retrieve just a few bytes from the packet instead of all of it).

Security software that inspects packets should always check for
this new attribute to make sure that it is inspecting the entire
packet.

This also helps to provide a workaround for the problem described
in: http://marc.info/?l=netfilter-devel&m=134519473212536&w=2



Original idea from Florian Westphal.

The packets that we send via NFQUEUE are encapsulated in the NFQA_PAYLOAD
attribute. The length of the packet in userspace is obtained via
attr->nla_len field. This field contains the size of the Netlink
attribute header plus the packet length.

If the maximum packet length is specified, ie. 65535 bytes, and
packets in the range of (65531,65535] are sent to userspace, the
attr->nla_len overflows and it reports bogus lengths to the
application.

To fix this, this patch limits the maximum packet length to 65531
bytes. If larger packet length is specified, the packet that we
send to user-space is truncated to 65531 bytes.

To support 65535 bytes packets, we have to revisit the idea of
the 32-bits Netlink attribute length.

This patch allows the FTP helper to pickup the sequence tracking from
the first packet seen. This is useful to fix the breakage of the first
FTP command after the failover while using conntrackd to synchronize
states.

The seq_aft_nl_num field in struct nf_ct_ftp_info has been shrinked to
16-bits (enough for what it does), so we can use the remaining 16-bits
to store the flags while using the same size for the private FTP helper
data.

Currently, if you want to do something like:
"match Monday, starting 23:00, for two hours"
You need two rules, one for Mon 23:00 to 0:00 and one for Tue 0:00-1:00.

The rule: --weekdays Mo --timestart 23:00  --timestop 01:00

looks correct, but it will first match on monday from midnight to 1 a.m.
and then again for another hour from 23:00 onwards.

This permits userspace to explicitly ignore the day transition and
match for a single, continuous time period instead.

When recording the number of SYNACK retransmits for servers using TCP
Fast Open, fix the code to ensure that we copy over the retransmit
count from the request_sock after we receive the ACK that completes
the 3-way handshake.

The story here is similar to that of SYNACK RTT
measurements. Previously we were always doing this in
tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock(). However, for TCP Fast Open connections
tcp_v4_conn_req_fastopen() calls tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock() at the time we
receive the SYN. So for TFO we must copy the final SYNACK retransmit
count in tcp_rcv_state_process().

Note that copying over the SYNACK retransmit count will give us the
correct count since, as is mentioned in a comment in
tcp_retransmit_timer(), before we receive an ACK for our SYN-ACK a TFO
passive connection does not retransmit anything else (e.g., data or
FIN segments).

A TCP Fast Open (TFO) passive connection must call both
tcp_check_req() and tcp_validate_incoming() for all incoming ACKs that
are attempting to complete the 3WHS.

This is needed to parallel all the action that happens for a non-TFO
connection, where for an ACK that is attempting to complete the 3WHS
we call both tcp_check_req() and tcp_validate_incoming().

For example, upon receiving the ACK that completes the 3WHS, we need
to call tcp_fast_parse_options() and update ts_recent based on the
incoming timestamp value in the ACK.

One symptom of the problem with the previous code was that for passive
TFO connections using TCP timestamps, the outgoing TS ecr values
ignored the incoming TS val value on the ACK that completed the 3WHS.

Previously, when using TCP Fast Open a server would return from
tcp_check_req() before updating snt_synack based on TCP timestamp echo
replies and whether or not we've retransmitted the SYNACK. The result
was that (a) for TFO connections using timestamps we used an incorrect
baseline SYNACK send time (tcp_time_stamp of SYNACK send instead of
rcv_tsecr), and (b) for TFO connections that do not have TCP
timestamps but retransmit the SYNACK we took a SYNACK RTT sample when
we should not take a sample.

This fix merely moves the snt_synack update logic a bit earlier in the
function, so that connections using TCP Fast Open will properly do
these updates when the ACK for the SYNACK arrives.

Moving this snt_synack update logic means that with TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT
enabled we do a few instructions of wasted work on each bare ACK, but
that seems OK.

When taking SYNACK RTT samples for servers using TCP Fast Open, fix
the code to ensure that we only call tcp_valid_rtt_meas() after we
receive the ACK that completes the 3-way handshake.

Previously we were always taking an RTT sample in
tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock(). However, for TCP Fast Open connections
tcp_v4_conn_req_fastopen() calls tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock() at the time we
receive the SYN. So for TFO we must wait until tcp_rcv_state_process()
to take the RTT sample.

To fix this, we wait until after TFO calls tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock()
before we set the snt_synack timestamp, since tcp_synack_rtt_meas()
already ensures that we only take a SYNACK RTT sample if snt_synack is
non-zero. To be careful, we only take a snt_synack timestamp when
a SYNACK transmit or retransmit succeeds.

This change is meant to improve performance on systems that do not require
the DMA unmap calls.  On those systems we do not need to make use of the
unmap address for Tx or the unmap length so we can drop both thereby
reducing the size of the Tx buffer info structure.

In addition I have changed the logic to check for unmap length instead of
unmap address when checking to see if a buffer needs to be unmapped from
DMA use.  The reasons for this change is that on some platforms it is
possible to receive a valid DMA address of 0 from an IOMMU.
