2011-09-27tcp: ECN blackhole should not force quickack modeGravatar Eric Dumazet 1-7/+16
While playing with a new ADSL box at home, I discovered that ECN blackhole can trigger suboptimal quickack mode on linux : We send one ACK for each incoming data frame, without any delay and eventual piggyback. This is because TCP_ECN_check_ce() considers that if no ECT is seen on a segment, this is because this segment was a retransmit. Refine this heuristic and apply it only if we seen ECT in a previous segment, to detect ECN blackhole at IP level.

A userspace listener may send (bogus) NF_STOLEN verdict, which causes skb leak. This problem was previously fixed via 64507fdbc29c3a622180378210ecea8659b14e40 (netfilter: nf_queue: fix NF_STOLEN skb leak) but this had to be reverted because NF_STOLEN can also be returned by a netfilter hook when iterating the rules in nf_reinject. Reject userspace NF_STOLEN verdict, as suggested by Michal Miroslaw. This is complementary to commit fad54440438a7c231a6ae347738423cbabc936d9 (netfilter: avoid double free in nf_reinject).

2011-08-24Proportional Rate Reduction for TCP.Gravatar Nandita Dukkipati 2-7/+58
This patch implements Proportional Rate Reduction (PRR) for TCP. PRR is an algorithm that determines TCP's sending rate in fast recovery. PRR avoids excessive window reductions and aims for the actual congestion window size at the end of recovery to be as close as possible to the window determined by the congestion control algorithm. PRR also improves accuracy of the amount of data sent during loss recovery. The patch implements the recommended flavor of PRR called PRR-SSRB (Proportional rate reduction with slow start reduction bound) and replaces the existing rate halving algorithm. PRR improves upon the existing Linux fast recovery under a number of conditions including: 1) burst losses where the losses implicitly reduce the amount of outstanding data (pipe) below the ssthresh value selected by the congestion control algorithm and, 2) losses near the end of short flows where application runs out of data to send. As an example, with the existing rate halving implementation a single loss event can cause a connection carrying short Web transactions to go into the slow start mode after the recovery. This is because during recovery Linux pulls the congestion window down to packets_in_flight+1 on every ACK. A short Web response often runs out of new data to send and its pipe reduces to zero by the end of recovery when all its packets are drained from the network. Subsequent HTTP responses using the same connection will have to slow start to raise cwnd to ssthresh. PRR on the other hand aims for the cwnd to be as close as possible to ssthresh by the end of recovery. A description of PRR and a discussion of its performance can be found at the following links: - IETF Draft: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-mathis-tcpm-proportional-rate-reduction-01 - IETF Slides: http://www.ietf.org/proceedings/80/slides/tcpm-6.pdf http://tools.ietf.org/agenda/81/slides/tcpm-2.pdf - Paper to appear in Internet Measurements Conference (IMC) 2011: Improving TCP Loss Recovery Nandita Dukkipati, Matt Mathis, Yuchung Cheng Signed-off-by: Nandita Dukkipati <nanditad@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2011-08-11ipv4: some rt_iif -> rt_route_iif conversionsGravatar Julian Anastasov 1-5/+3
As rt_iif represents input device even for packets coming from loopback with output route, it is not an unique key specific to input routes. Now rt_route_iif has such role, it was fl.iif in 2.6.38, so better to change the checks at some places to save CPU cycles and to restore 2.6.38 semantics. compare_keys: - input routes: only rt_route_iif matters, rt_iif is same - output routes: only rt_oif matters, rt_iif is not used for matching in __ip_route_output_key - now we are back to 2.6.38 state ip_route_input_common: - matching rt_route_iif implies input route - compared to 2.6.38 we eliminated one rth->fl.oif check because it was not needed even for 2.6.38 compare_hash_inputs: Only the change here is not an optimization, it has effect only for output routes. I assume I'm restoring the original intention to ignore oif, it was using fl.iif - now we are back to 2.6.38 state Signed-off-by: Julian Anastasov <ja@ssi.bg> Signed-off-by: David S.

2011-08-07netfilter: TCP and raw fix for ip_route_me_harderGravatar Julian Anastasov 1-10/+8
TCP in some cases uses different global (raw) socket to send RST and ACK. The transparent flag is not set there. Currently, it is a problem for rerouting after the previous change. Fix it by simplifying the checks in ip_route_me_harder and use FLOWI_FLAG_ANYSRC even for sockets. It looks safe because the initial routing allowed this source address to be used and now we just have to make sure the packet is rerouted. As a side effect this also allows rerouting for normal raw sockets that use spoofed source addresses which was not possible even before we eliminated the ip_route_input call.

2011-08-07ipv4: fix the reusing of routing cache entriesGravatar Julian Anastasov 1-1/+2
compare_keys and ip_route_input_common rely on rt_oif for distinguishing of input and output routes with same keys values. But sometimes the input route has also same hash chain (keyed by iif != 0) with the output routes (keyed by orig_oif=0). Problem visible if running with small number of rhash_entries. Fix them to use rt_route_iif instead. By this way input route can not be returned to users that request output route.

2011-08-06net: Compute protocol sequence numbers and fragment IDs using MD5.Gravatar David S. Miller 5-0/+5
Computers have become a lot faster since we compromised on the partial MD4 hash which we use currently for performance reasons. MD5 is a much safer choice, and is inline with both RFC1948 and other ISS generators (OpenBSD, Solaris, etc.) Furthermore, only having 24-bits of the sequence number be truly unpredictable is a very serious limitation. So the periodic regeneration and 8-bit counter have been removed. We compute and use a full 32-bit sequence number. For ipv6, DCCP was found to use a 32-bit truncated initial sequence number (it needs 43-bits) and that is fixed here as well.

Gergely Kalman reported crashes in check_peer_redir(). It appears commit f39925dbde778 (ipv4: Cache learned redirect information in inetpeer.) added a race, leading to possible NULL ptr dereference. Since we can now change dst neighbour, we should make sure a reader can safely use a neighbour. Add RCU protection to dst neighbour, and make sure check_peer_redir() can be called safely by different cpus in parallel. As neighbours are already freed after one RCU grace period, this patch should not add typical RCU penalty (cache cold effects) Many thanks to Gergely for providing a pretty report pointing to the bug.

ipq_build_packet_message() in net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_queue.c and net/ipv6/netfilter/ip6_queue.c contain a small potential mem leak as far as I can tell. We allocate memory for 'skb' with alloc_skb() annd then call nlh = NLMSG_PUT(skb, 0, 0, IPQM_PACKET, size - sizeof(*nlh)); NLMSG_PUT is a macro NLMSG_PUT(skb, pid, seq, type, len) \ NLMSG_NEW(skb, pid, seq, type, len, 0) that expands to NLMSG_NEW, which is also a macro which expands to: NLMSG_NEW(skb, pid, seq, type, len, flags) \ ({ if (unlikely(skb_tailroom(skb) < (int)NLMSG_SPACE(len))) \ goto nlmsg_failure; \ __nlmsg_put(skb, pid, seq, type, len, flags); }) If we take the true branch of the 'if' statement and 'goto nlmsg_failure', then we'll, at that point, return from ipq_build_packet_message() without having assigned 'skb' to anything and we'll leak the memory we allocated for it when it goes out of scope. Fix this by placing a 'kfree(skb)' at 'nlmsg_failure'. I admit that I do not know how likely this to actually happen or even if there's something that guarantees that it will never happen - I'm not that familiar with this code, but if that is so, I've not been able to spot it.

2011-07-18net: Add ->neigh_lookup() operation to dst_opsGravatar David S. Miller 1-7/+19
In the future dst entries will be neigh-less. In that environment we need to have an easy transition point for current users of dst->neighbour outside of the packet output fast path. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2011-07-17neigh: Pass neighbour entry to output ops.Gravatar David S. Miller 1-3/+3
This will get us closer to being able to do "neigh stuff" completely independent of the underlying dst_entry for protocols (ipv4/ipv6) that wish to do so. We will also be able to make dst entries neigh-less. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
