Improve the tracking of which packets need to be transmitted by saving the last ACK packet that we receive that has a populated soft-ACK table rather than marking packets. Then we can step through the soft-ACK table and look at the packets we've transmitted beyond that to determine which packets we might want to retransmit. We also look at the highest serial number that has been acked to try and guess which packets we've transmitted the peer is likely to have seen. If necessary, we send a ping to retrieve that number. One downside that might be a problem is that we can't then compare the previous acked/unacked state so easily in rxrpc_input_soft_acks() - which is a potential problem for the slow-start algorithm.

Change the way the Tx queueing works to make the following ends easier to achieve: (1) The filling of packets, the encryption of packets and the transmission of packets can be handled in parallel by separate threads, rather than rxrpc_sendmsg() allocating, filling, encrypting and transmitting each packet before moving onto the next one. (2) Get rid of the fixed-size ring which sets a hard limit on the number of packets that can be retained in the ring. This allows the number of packets to increase without having to allocate a very large ring or having variable-sized rings. [Note: the downside of this is that it's then less efficient to locate a packet for retransmission as we then have to step through a list and examine each buffer in the list.] (3) Allow the filler/encrypter to run ahead of the transmission window. (4) Make it easier to do zero copy UDP from the packet buffers. (5) Make it easier to do zero copy from userspace to the packet buffers - and thence to UDP (only if for unauthenticated connections). To that end, the following changes are made: (1) Use the new rxrpc_txbuf struct instead of sk_buff for keeping packets to be transmitted in. This allows them to be placed on multiple queues simultaneously. An sk_buff isn't really necessary as it's never passed on to lower-level networking code. (2) Keep the transmissable packets in a linked list on the call struct rather than in a ring. As a consequence, the annotation buffer isn't used either; rather a flag is set on the packet to indicate ackedness. (3) Use the RXRPC_CALL_TX_LAST flag to indicate that the last packet to be transmitted has been queued. Add RXRPC_CALL_TX_ALL_ACKED to indicate that all packets up to and including the last got hard acked. (4) Wire headers are now stored in the txbuf rather than being concocted on the stack and they're stored immediately before the data, thereby allowing zerocopy of a single span. (5) Don't bother with instant-resend on transmission failure; rather, leave it for a timer or an ACK packet to trigger. Signed-off-by:

Get rid of the Rx ring and replace it with a pair of queues instead. One queue gets the packets that are in-sequence and are ready for processing by recvmsg(); the other queue gets the out-of-sequence packets for addition to the first queue as the holes get filled. The annotation ring is removed and replaced with a SACK table. The SACK table has the bits set that correspond exactly to the sequence number of the packet being acked. The SACK ring is copied when an ACK packet is being assembled and rotated so that the first ACK is in byte 0. Flow control handling is altered so that packets that are moved to the in-sequence queue are hard-ACK'd even before they're consumed - and then the Rx window size in the ACK packet (rsize) is shrunk down to compensate (even going to 0 if the window is full).

Split up received jumbo packets into separate skbuffs by cloning the original skbuff for each subpacket and setting the offset and length of the data in that subpacket in the skbuff's private data. The subpackets are then placed on the recvmsg queue separately. The security class then gets to revise the offset and length to remove its metadata. If we fail to clone a packet, we just drop it and let the peer resend it. The original packet gets used for the final subpacket. This should make it easier to handle parallel decryption of the subpackets. It also simplifies the handling of lost or misordered packets in the queuing/buffering loop as the possibility of overlapping jumbo packets no longer needs to be considered. Signed-off-by:

Clean up the rxrpc_propose_ACK() function. If deferred PING ACK proposal is split out, it's only really needed for deferred DELAY ACKs. All other ACKs, bar terminal IDLE ACK are sent immediately. The deferred IDLE ACK submission can be handled by conversion of a DELAY ACK into an IDLE ACK if there's nothing to be SACK'd. Also, because there's a delay between an ACK being generated and being transmitted, it's possible that other ACKs of the same type will be generated during that interval. Apart from the ACK time and the serial number responded to, most of the ACK body, including window and SACK parameters, are not filled out till the point of transmission - so we can avoid generating a new ACK if there's one pending that will cover the SACK data we need to convey. Therefore, don't propose a new DELAY or IDLE ACK for a call if there's one already pending. Signed-off-by:

Make rxrpc_encap_rcv_err() pass the ICMP/ICMP6 skbuff to ip_icmp_error() or ipv6_icmp_error() as appropriate to do the parsing rather than trying to do it in rxrpc. This pushes an error report onto the UDP socket's error queue and calls ->sk_error_report() from which point rxrpc can pick it up. It would be preferable to steal the packet directly from ip*_icmp_error() rather than letting it get queued, but this is probably good enough. Also note that __udp4_lib_err() calls sk_error_report() twice in some cases. Signed-off-by:

Mubashir Adnan Qureshi says: ==================== net: Add PLB functionality to TCP This patch series adds PLB (Protective Load Balancing) to TCP and hooks it up to DCTCP. PLB is disabled by default and can be enabled using relevant sysctls and support from underlying CC. PLB (Protective Load Balancing) is a host based mechanism for load balancing across switch links. It leverages congestion signals(e.g. ECN) from transport layer to randomly change the path of the connection experiencing congestion. PLB changes the path of the connection by changing the outgoing IPv6 flow label for IPv6 connections (implemented in Linux by calling sk_rethink_txhash()). Because of this implementation mechanism, PLB can currently only work for IPv6 traffic.

These counters are hooked up to PLB implementation for DCTCP. TCP_NLA_REHASH is added to SCM_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_STATS that reports the rehash attempts triggered due to PLB or timeouts.

Congestion control algorithms track PLB state and cause the connection to trigger a path change when either of the 2 conditions is satisfied: - No packets are in flight and (# consecutive congested rounds >= sysctl_tcp_plb_idle_rehash_rounds) - (# consecutive congested rounds >= sysctl_tcp_plb_rehash_rounds) A round (RTT) is marked as congested when congestion signal (ECN ce_ratio) over an RTT is greater than sysctl_tcp_plb_cong_thresh. In the event of RTO, PLB (via tcp_write_timeout()) triggers a path change and disables congestion-triggered path changes for random time between (sysctl_tcp_plb_suspend_rto_sec, 2*sysctl_tcp_plb_suspend_rto_sec) to avoid hopping onto the "connectivity blackhole". RTO-triggered path changes can still happen during this cool-off period. Signed-off-by:

Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== Netfilter updates for net-next 1) Move struct nft_payload_set definition to .c file where it is only used. 2) Shrink transport and inner header offset fields in the nft_pktinfo structure to 16-bits, from Florian Westphal. 3) Get rid of nft_objref Kbuild toggle, make it built-in into nf_tables. This expression is used to instantiate conntrack helpers in nftables. After removing the conntrack helper auto-assignment toggle it this feature became more important so move it to the nf_tables core module. Also from Florian. 4) Extend the existing function to calculate payload inner header offset to deal with the GRE and IPIP transport protocols. 6) Add inner expression support for nf_tables. This new expression provides a packet parser for tunneled packets which uses a userspace description of the expected inner headers. The inner expression invokes the payload expression (via direct call) to match on the inner header protocol fields using the inner link, network and transport header offsets. An example of the bytecode generated from userspace to match on IP source encapsulated in a VxLAN packet: # nft --debug=netlink add rule netdev x y udp dport 4789 vxlan ip saddr 1.2.3.4 netdev x y [ meta load l4proto => reg 1 ] [ cmp eq reg 1 0x00000011 ] [ payload load 2b @ transport header + 2 => reg 1 ] [ cmp eq reg 1 0x0000b512 ] [ inner type vxlan hdrsize 8 flags f [ meta load protocol => reg 1 ] ] [ cmp eq reg 1 0x00000008 ] [ inner type vxlan hdrsize 8 flags f [ payload load 4b @ network header + 12 => reg 1 ] ] [ cmp eq reg 1 0x04030201 ] 7) Store inner link, network and transport header offsets in percpu area to parse inner packet header once only. Matching on a different tunnel type invalidates existing offsets in the percpu area and it invokes the inner tunnel parser again. 8) Add support for inner meta matching. This support for NFTA_META_PROTOCOL, which specifies the inner ethertype, and NFT_META_L4PROTO, which specifies the inner transport protocol. 9) Extend nft_inner to parse GENEVE optional fields to calculate the link layer offset. 10) Update inner expression so tunnel offset points to GRE header to normalize tunnel header handling. This also allows to perform different interpretations of the GRE header from userspace. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netfilter/nf-next: netfilter: nft_inner: set tunnel offset to GRE header offset netfilter: nft_inner: add geneve support netfilter: nft_meta: add inner match support netfilter: nft_inner: add percpu inner context netfilter: nft_inner: support for inner tunnel header matching netfilter: nft_payload: access ipip payload for inner offset netfilter: nft_payload: access GRE payload via inner offset netfilter: nft_objref: make it builtin netfilter: nf_tables: reduce nft_pktinfo by 8 bytes netfilter: nft_payload: move struct nft_payload_set definition where it belongs ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20221026132227.3287-1-pablo@netfilter.org Signed-off-by:
