2021-08-14mptcp: faster active backup recoveryGravatar Paolo Abeni 1-0/+14
The msk can use backup subflows to transmit in-sequence data only if there are no other active subflow. On active backup scenario, the MPTCP connection can do forward progress only due to MPTCP retransmissions - rtx can pick backup subflows. This patch introduces a new flag flow MPTCP subflows: if the underlying TCP connection made no progresses for long time, and there are other less problematic subflows available, the given subflow become stale. Stale subflows are not considered active: if all non backup subflows become stale, the MPTCP scheduler can pick backup subflows for plain transmissions. Stale subflows can return in active state, as soon as any reply from the peer is observed. Active backup scenarios can now leverage the available b/w with no restrinction.

2021-08-14mptcp: cleanup sysctl data and helpersGravatar Paolo Abeni 1-6/+6
Reorder the data in mptcp_pernet to avoid wasting space with no reasons and constify the access helpers. No functional changes intended.

This patch added a new sysctl, named allow_join_initial_addr_port, to control whether allow peers to send join requests to the IP address and port number used by the initial subflow.

2021-05-28mptcp: restrict values of 'enabled' sysctlGravatar Matthieu Baerts 1-3/+5
To avoid confusions, it seems better to parse this sysctl parameter as a boolean. We use it as a boolean, no need to parse an integer and bring confusions if we see a value different from 0 and 1, especially with this parameter name: enabled. It seems fine to do this modification because the default value is 1 (enabled). Then the only other interesting value to set is 0 (disabled). All other values would not have changed the default behaviour.

2021-05-28mptcp: support SYSCTL only if enabledGravatar Matthieu Baerts 1-6/+22
Since the introduction of the sysctl support in MPTCP with commit 784325e9f037 ("mptcp: new sysctl to control the activation per NS"), we don't check CONFIG_SYSCTL. Until now, that was not an issue: the register and unregister functions were replaced by NO-OP one if SYSCTL was not enabled in the config. The only thing we could have avoid is not to reserve memory for the table but that's for the moment only a small table per net-ns. But the following commit is going to use SYSCTL_ZERO and SYSCTL_ONE which are not be defined if SYSCTL is not enabled in the config. This causes 'undefined reference' errors from the linker.

2020-07-31mptcp: enable JOIN requests even if cookies are in useGravatar Florian Westphal 1-0/+1
JOIN requests do not work in syncookie mode -- for HMAC validation, the peers nonce and the mptcp token (to obtain the desired connection socket the join is for) are required, but this information is only present in the initial syn. So either we need to drop all JOIN requests once a listening socket enters syncookie mode, or we need to store enough state to reconstruct the request socket later. This adds a state table (1024 entries) to store the data present in the MP_JOIN syn request and the random nonce used for the cookie syn/ack. When a MP_JOIN ACK passed cookie validation, the table is consulted to rebuild the request socket from it. An alternate approach would be to "cancel" syn-cookie mode and force MP_JOIN to always use a syn queue entry. However, doing so brings the backlog over the configured queue limit. v2: use req->syncookie, not (removed) want_cookie arg Suggested-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de> Reviewed-by: Mat Martineau <mathew.j.martineau@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2020-01-24mptcp: new sysctl to control the activation per NSGravatar Matthieu Baerts 1-0/+130
New MPTCP sockets will return -ENOPROTOOPT if MPTCP support is disabled for the current net namespace. We are providing here a way to control access to the feature for those that need to turn it on or off. The value of this new sysctl can be different per namespace. We can then restrict the usage of MPTCP to the selected NS. In case of serious issues with MPTCP, administrators can now easily turn MPTCP off.
