With the introduction of TCP Small Queues, TSO auto sizing, and TCP
pacing, we can implement Automatic Corking in the kernel, to help
applications doing small write()/sendmsg() to TCP sockets.
Idea is to change tcp_push() to check if the current skb payload is
under skb optimal size (a multiple of MSS bytes)
If under 'size_goal', and at least one packet is still in Qdisc or
NIC TX queues, set the TCP Small Queue Throttled bit, so that the push
will be delayed up to TX completion time.
This delay might allow the application to coalesce more bytes
in the skb in following write()/sendmsg()/sendfile() system calls.
The exact duration of the delay is depending on the dynamics
of the system, and might be zero if no packet for this flow
is actually held in Qdisc or NIC TX ring.
Using FQ/pacing is a way to increase the probability of
autocorking being triggered.
Add a new sysctl (/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_autocorking) to control
this feature and default it to 1 (enabled)
Add a new SNMP counter : nstat -a | grep TcpExtTCPAutoCorking
This counter is incremented every time we detected skb was under used
and its flush was deferred.
Tested:
Interesting effects when using line buffered commands under ssh.
Excellent performance results in term of cpu usage and total throughput.

After congestion update on a local connection, when rds_ib_xmit returns
less bytes than that are there in the message, rds_send_xmit calls
back rds_ib_xmit with an offset that causes BUG_ON(off & RDS_FRAG_SIZE)
to trigger.
For a 4Kb PAGE_SIZE rds_ib_xmit returns min(8240,4096)=4096 when actually
the message contains 8240 bytes. rds_send_xmit thinks there is more to send
and calls rds_ib_xmit again with a data offset "off" of 4096-48(rds header)
=4048 bytes thus hitting the BUG_ON(off & RDS_FRAG_SIZE) [RDS_FRAG_SIZE=4k].
The commit 6094628bfd
"rds: prevent BUG_ON triggering on congestion map updates" introduced
this regression. That change was addressing the triggering of a different
BUG_ON in rds_send_xmit() on PowerPC architecture with 64Kbytes PAGE_SIZE:
BUG_ON(ret != 0 &&
conn->c_xmit_sg == rm->data.op_nents);
This was the sequence it was going through:
(rds_ib_xmit)
/* Do not send cong updates to IB loopback */
if (conn->c_loopback
&& rm->m_inc.i_hdr.h_flags & RDS_FLAG_CONG_BITMAP) {
rds_cong_map_updated(conn->c_fcong, ~(u64) 0);
return sizeof(struct rds_header) + RDS_CONG_MAP_BYTES;
}
rds_ib_xmit returns 8240
rds_send_xmit:
c_xmit_data_off = 0 + 8240 - 48 (rds header accounted only the first time)
= 8192
c_xmit_data_off < 65536 (sg->length), so calls rds_ib_xmit again
rds_ib_xmit returns 8240
rds_send_xmit:
c_xmit_data_off = 8192 + 8240 = 16432, calls rds_ib_xmit again
and so on (c_xmit_data_off 24672,32912,41152,49392,57632)
rds_ib_xmit returns 8240
On this iteration this sequence causes the BUG_ON in rds_send_xmit:
while (ret) {
tmp = min_t(int, ret, sg->length - conn->c_xmit_data_off);
[tmp = 65536 - 57632 = 7904]
conn->c_xmit_data_off += tmp;
[c_xmit_data_off = 57632 + 7904 = 65536]
ret -= tmp;
[ret = 8240 - 7904 = 336]
if (conn->c_xmit_data_off == sg->length) {
conn->c_xmit_data_off = 0;
sg++;
conn->c_xmit_sg++;
BUG_ON(ret != 0 &&
conn->c_xmit_sg == rm->data.op_nents);
[c_xmit_sg = 1, rm->data.op_nents = 1]
What the current fix does:
Since the congestion update over loopback is not actually transmitted
as a message, all that rds_ib_xmit needs to do is let the caller think
the full message has been transmitted and not return partial bytes.
It will return 8240 (RDS_CONG_MAP_BYTES+48) when PAGE_SIZE is 4Kb.
And 64Kb+48 when page size is 64Kb.

"Here is a pile of bug fixes that accumulated while I was in Europe"
1) In fixing kernel leaks to userspace during copying of socket
addresses, we broke a case that used to work, namely the user
providing a buffer larger than the in-kernel generic socket address
structure. This broke Ruby amongst other things. Fix from Dan
Carpenter.
2) Fix regression added by byte queue limit support in 8139cp driver,
from Yang Yingliang.
3) The addition of MSG_SENDPAGE_NOTLAST buggered up a few sendpage
implementations, they should just treat it the same as MSG_MORE.
Fix from Richard Weinberger and Shawn Landden.
4) Handle icmpv4 errors received on ipv6 SIT tunnels correctly, from

in such situations.
5) Fix some regressions in the recent genetlink fixes, in particular
get the pmcraid driver to use the new safer interfaces correctly.

6) macvtap was converted to use a per-cpu set of statistics, but some
code was still bumping tx_dropped elsewhere. From Jason Wang.
7) Fix build failure of xen-netback due to missing include on some
architectures, from Andy Whitecroft.
8) macvtap double counts received packets in statistics, fix from Vlad
Yasevich.
9) Fix various cases of using *_STATS_BH() when *_STATS() is more
appropriate. From Eric Dumazet and Hannes Frederic Sowa.
10) Pktgen ipsec mode doesn't update the ipv4 header length and checksum
properly after encapsulation. Fix from Fan Du.

commit a553e4a631 ("[PKTGEN]: IPSEC support")
tried to support IPsec ESP transport transformation for pktgen, but acctually
this doesn't work at all for two reasons(The orignal transformed packet has
bad IPv4 checksum value, as well as wrong auth value, reported by wireshark)
- After transpormation, IPv4 header total length needs update,
because encrypted payload's length is NOT same as that of plain text.
- After transformation, IPv4 checksum needs re-caculate because of payload
has been changed.
With this patch, armmed pktgen with below cofiguration, Wireshark is able to
decrypted ESP packet generated by pktgen without any IPv4 checksum error or
auth value error.

The pmcraid driver is abusing the genetlink API and is using its
family ID as the multicast group ID, which is invalid and may
belong to somebody else (and likely will.)
Make it use the correct API, but since this may already be used
as-is by userspace, reserve a family ID for this code and also
reserve that group ID to not break userspace assumptions.
My previous patch broke event delivery in the driver as I missed
that it wasn't using the right API and forgot to update it later
in my series.
While changing this, I noticed that the genetlink code could use
the static group ID instead of a strcmp(), so also do that for
the VFS_DQUOT family.

Mesh STA receiving the mesh CSA action frame is not able to trigger
the mesh channel switch due to the incorrect handling and comparison
of mesh channel switch parameters element (MCSP)'s TTL. Make sure
the MCSP's TTL is updated accordingly before calling the
ieee80211_mesh_process_chnswitch. Also, we update the beacon before
forwarding the CSA action frame, so MCSP's precedence value and
initiator flag need to be updated prior to this.

Multicast frames can't be transmitted as part of an aggregation
session (such a session couldn't even be set up) so don't try to
reorder them. Trying to do so would cause the reorder to stop
working correctly since multicast QoS frames (as transmitted by
the Aruba APs this was found with) would cause sequence number
confusion in the buffer.

Due to nl80211 API breakage, 5/10 MHz support is broken for
all drivers. Fixing it requires adding new API, but that
can't be done as a bugfix commit since that would require
either updating all APIs in the trees needing the bugfix or
cause different kernels to have incompatible API.
Therefore, just disable 5/10 MHz support for all drivers.

When initializing rates selections starting indexes upon stats update,
the minstrel_sta->max_* rates should be 'group * MCS_GROUP_RATES + i'
not 'i'. This affects settings where one of the peers does not support
any of the rates of the group 0 (i.e. when ht_cap.mcs.rx_mask[0] == 0).

Mesh beacon was not being rebuild after user triggered a mesh
powersave change.
To solve this issue use ieee80211_mbss_info_change_notify instead
of ieee80211_bss_info_change_notify. This helper function forces
mesh beacon to be rebuild and then notifies the driver about the
beacon change.

Commit "mac80211: implement SMPS for AP" applies to AP_VLAN as well.
It assumes that sta->sdata->vif.bss_conf.bssid is present, which did not
get set for AP_VLAN.
Initialize it to sdata->vif.addr like for other interface types.

Coverity pointed out that we might dereference NULL later
if nla_nest_start() returns a failure. This isn't really
true since we'd bomb out before, but we should check the
return value directly, so do that.

Coverity pointed out that in the (practically impossible)
error case we leak the message - fix this.
