Eric Dumazet 6f458dfb40 tcp: improve latencies of timer triggered events
Modern TCP stack highly depends on tcp_write_timer() having a small
latency, but current implementation doesn't exactly meet the
expectations.

When a timer fires but finds the socket is owned by the user, it rearms
itself for an additional delay hoping next run will be more
successful.

tcp_write_timer() for example uses a 50ms delay for next try, and it
defeats many attempts to get predictable TCP behavior in term of
latencies.

Use the recently introduced tcp_release_cb(), so that the user owning
the socket will call various handlers right before socket release.

This will permit us to post a followup patch to address the
tcp_tso_should_defer() syndrome (some deferred packets have to wait
RTO timer to be transmitted, while cwnd should allow us to send them
sooner)

When/if sysctl_tcp_abc > 1, we expect to increase cwnd by 2 if the
received ACK acknowledges more than 2*MSS bytes, in tcp_slow_start()

Problem is this RFC 3465 statement is not correctly coded, as
the while () loop increases snd_cwnd one by one.

Add a new variable to avoid this off-by one error.

Ira W. Snyder 3b5c6b9e49 can: janz-ican3: add support for one shot mode
The Janz VMOD-ICAN3 hardware has support for one shot packet
transmission. This means that a packet will be attempted to be sent
once, with no automatic retries.

The SocketCAN core has a controller-wide setting for this mode:
CAN_CTRLMODE_ONE_SHOT. The Janz VMOD-ICAN3 hardware supports this flag
on a per-packet level, but the SocketCAN core does not.

Ira W. Snyder 30df5888e4 can: janz-ican3: avoid firmware lockup caused by infinite bus error quota
If the bus error quota is set to infinite and the host CPU cannot keep
up, the Janz VMOD-ICAN3 firmware will stop responding to control
messages until the controller is reset.

The firmware will automatically stop sending bus error messages when the
quota is reached, and will only resume sending bus error messages when
the quota is re-set to a positive value.

This limitation is worked around by setting the bus error quota to one
message, and then re-setting the quota to one message every time a bus
error message is received. By doing this, the firmware never stops
responding to control messages. The CAN bus can be reset without a
hard-reset of the controller card.

Ira W. Snyder 83702f6927 can: janz-ican3: fix support for CAN_RAW_RECV_OWN_MSGS
The Janz VMOD-ICAN3 firmware does not support any sort of TX-done
notification or interrupt. The driver previously used the hardware
loopback to attempt to work around this deficiency, but this caused all
sockets to receive all messages, even if CAN_RAW_RECV_OWN_MSGS is off.

Using the new function ican3_cmp_echo_skb(), we can drop the loopback
messages and return the original skbs. This fixes the issues with
CAN_RAW_RECV_OWN_MSGS.

A private skb queue is used to store the echo skbs. This avoids the need
for any index management.

Due to a lack of TX-error interrupts, bus errors are permanently
enabled, and are used as a TX-error notification. This is used to drop
an echo skb when transmission fails. Bus error packets are not generated
if the user has not enabled bus error reporting.

The error and byte counter statistics were being incremented
incorrectly. For example, a TX error would be counted both in tx_errors
and rx_errors.

This corrects the problem so that tx_errors and rx_errors are only
incremented for errors caused by packets sent to the bus. Error packets
generated by the driver are not counted.

The byte counters are only increased for packets which are actually
transmitted or received from the bus. Error packets generated by the
driver are not counted.

Steffen Trumtrar 3d42a379b6 can: flexcan: add 2nd clock to support imx53 and newer
This patch adds support for a second clock to the flexcan driver. On
modern freescale ARM cores like the imx53 and imx6q two clocks ("ipg"
and "per") must be enabled in order to access the CAN core.

In the original driver, the clock was requested without specifying the
connection id, further all mainline ARM archs with flexcan support
(imx28, imx25, imx35) register their flexcan clock without a
connection id, too.

This patch first renames the existing clk variable to clk_ipg and
converts it to devm for easier error handling. The connection id "ipg"
is added to the devm_clk_get() call. Then a second clock "per" is
requested. As all archs don't specify a connection id, both clk_get
return the same clock. This ensures compatibility to existing flexcan
support and adds support for imx53 at the same time.

After this patch hits mainline, the archs may give their existing
flexcan clock the "ipg" connection id and implement a dummy "per"
clock.

This patch has been tested on imx28 (unmodified clk tree) and on imx53
with a seperate "ipg" and "per" clock.

Yuchung Cheng aab4874355 net-tcp: Fast Open client - detecting SYN-data drops
On paths with firewalls dropping SYN with data or experimental TCP options,
Fast Open connections will have experience SYN timeout and bad performance.
The solution is to track such incidents in the cookie cache and disables
Fast Open temporarily.

Since only the original SYN includes data and/or Fast Open option, the
SYN-ACK has some tell-tale sign (tcp_rcv_fastopen_synack()) to detect
such drops. If a path has recurring Fast Open SYN drops, Fast Open is
disabled for 2^(recurring_losses) minutes starting from four minutes up to
roughly one and half day. sendmsg with MSG_FASTOPEN flag will succeed but
it behaves as connect() then write().

Yuchung Cheng cf60af03ca net-tcp: Fast Open client - sendmsg(MSG_FASTOPEN)
sendmsg() (or sendto()) with MSG_FASTOPEN is a combo of connect(2)
and write(2). The application should replace connect() with it to
send data in the opening SYN packet.

For blocking socket, sendmsg() blocks until all the data are buffered
locally and the handshake is completed like connect() call. It
returns similar errno like connect() if the TCP handshake fails.

For non-blocking socket, it returns the number of bytes queued (and
transmitted in the SYN-data packet) if cookie is available. If cookie
is not available, it transmits a data-less SYN packet with Fast Open
cookie request option and returns -EINPROGRESS like connect().

Using MSG_FASTOPEN on connecting or connected socket will result in
simlar errno like repeating connect() calls. Therefore the application
should only use this flag on new sockets.

The buffer size of sendmsg() is independent of the MSS of the connection.

Yuchung Cheng 783237e8da net-tcp: Fast Open client - sending SYN-data
This patch implements sending SYN-data in tcp_connect(). The data is
from tcp_sendmsg() with flag MSG_FASTOPEN (implemented in a later patch).

The length of the cookie in tcp_fastopen_req, init'd to 0, controls the
type of the SYN. If the cookie is not cached (len==0), the host sends
data-less SYN with Fast Open cookie request option to solicit a cookie
from the remote. If cookie is not available (len > 0), the host sends
a SYN-data with Fast Open cookie option. If cookie length is negative,
  the SYN will not include any Fast Open option (for fall back operations).

To deal with middleboxes that may drop SYN with data or experimental TCP
option, the SYN-data is only sent once. SYN retransmits do not include
data or Fast Open options. The connection will fall back to regular TCP
handshake.

This patch impelements the common code for both the client and server.

1. TCP Fast Open option processing. Since Fast Open does not have an
   option number assigned by IANA yet, it shares the experiment option
   code 254 by implementing draft-ietf-tcpm-experimental-options
   with a 16 bits magic number 0xF989. This enables global experiments
   without clashing the scarce(2) experimental options available for TCP.

   When the draft status becomes standard (maybe), the client should
   switch to the new option number assigned while the server supports
   both numbers for transistion.

Thadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo 4cce66cdd1 mlx4_en: map entire pages to increase throughput
In its receive path, mlx4_en driver maps each page chunk that it pushes
to the hardware and unmaps it when pushing it up the stack. This limits
throughput to about 3Gbps on a Power7 8-core machine.

One solution is to map the entire allocated page at once. However, this
requires that we keep track of every page fragment we give to a
descriptor. We also need to work with the discipline that all fragments will
be released (in the sense that it will not be reused by the driver
anymore) in the order they are allocated to the driver.

This requires that we don't reuse any fragments, every single one of
them must be reallocated. We do that by releasing all the fragments that
are processed and only after finished processing the descriptors, we
start the refill.

We also must somehow guarantee that we either refill all fragments in a
descriptor or none at all, without resorting to giving up a page
fragment that we would have already given. Otherwise, we would break the
discipline of only releasing the fragments in the order they were
allocated.

This has passed page allocation fault injections (restricted to the
driver by using required-start and required-end) and device hotplug
while 16 TCP streams were able to deliver more than 9Gbps.

Bjørn Mork 8b0d2f9ed3 net: e100: ucode is optional in some cases
commit 9ac32e1b firmware: convert e100 driver to request_firmware()

did a straight conversion of the in-driver ucode to external
files.  This introduced the possibility of the driver failing
to enable an interface due to missing ucode. There was no
evaluation of the importance of the ucode at the time.

Based on comments in earlier versions of this driver, and in
the source code for the FreeBSD fxp driver, we can assume that
the ucode implements the "CPU Cycle Saver" feature on supported
adapters.  Although generally wanted, this is an optional
feature. The ucode source is not available, preventing it from
being included in free distributions. This creates unnecessary
problems for the end users. Doing a network install based on a
free distribution installer requires the user to download and
insert the ucode into the installer.

Making the ucode optional when possible improves the user
experience and driver usability.

The ucode for some adapters include a bugfix, making it
essential.  We continue to fail for these adapters unless the
ucode is available.

(8 instances, 4k message).
With this patch, I am able to reach 9.5 Gbps.

stephen hemminger 83bd1b793e ipx: move peII functions
The Ethernet II wrapper is only used by IPX protocol, may have once
been used by Appletalk but not currently. Therefore it makes sense to
move it to the IPX dust bin and drop the exports.

Build tested only.

Eric Dumazet be9f4a44e7 ipv4: tcp: remove per net tcp_sock
tcp_v4_send_reset() and tcp_v4_send_ack() use a single socket
per network namespace.

This leads to bad behavior on multiqueue NICS, because many cpus
contend for the socket lock and once socket lock is acquired, extra
false sharing on various socket fields slow down the operations.

To better resist to attacks, we use a percpu socket. Each cpu can
run without contention, using appropriate memory (local node)

Additional features :

1) We also mirror the queue_mapping of the incoming skb, so that
answers use the same queue if possible.

2) Setting SOCK_USE_WRITE_QUEUE socket flag speedup sock_wfree()

3) We now limit the number of in-flight RST/ACK [1] packets
per cpu, instead of per namespace, and we honor the sysctl_wmem_default
limit dynamically. (Prior to this patch, sysctl_wmem_default value was
copied at boot time, so any further change would not affect tcp_sock
limit)

[1] These packets are only generated when no socket was matched for
the incoming packet.

Julian Anastasov aee06da672 ipv4: use seqlock for nh_exceptions
Use global seqlock for the nh_exceptions. Call
fnhe_oldest with the right hash chain. Correct the diff
value for dst_set_expires.

v2: after suggestions from Eric Dumazet:
* get rid of spin lock fnhe_lock, rearrange update_or_create_fnhe
* continue daddr search in rt_bind_exception

v3:
* remove the daddr check before seqlock in rt_bind_exception
* restart lookup in rt_bind_exception on detected seqlock change,
as suggested by David Miller

Amir Vadai 1eb8c695bd net/mlx4_en: Add accelerated RFS support
Use RFS infrastructure and flow steering in HW to keep CPU
affinity of rx interrupts and application per TCP stream.

A flow steering filter is added to the HW whenever the RFS
ndo callback is invoked by core networking code.

Because the invocation takes place in interrupt context, the
actual setup of HW is done using workqueue. Whenever new filter
is added, the driver checks for expiry of existing filters.

Since there's window in time between the point where the core
RFS code invoked the ndo callback, to the point where the HW
is configured from the workqueue context, the 2nd, 3rd etc
packets from that stream will cause the net core to invoke
the callback again and again.

To prevent inefficient/double configuration of the HW, the filters
are kept in a database which is indexed using hash function to enable
fast access.
