2012-05-15NFC: Cache the core NFC active target pointer instead of its indexEric Lapuyade
The NFC Core now caches the active nfc target pointer, thereby avoiding the need to lookup the target table for each invocation of a driver ops. Consequently, pn533, HCI and NCI now directly receive an nfc_target pointer instead of a target index.

This patch introduces a new mesh configuration parameter "ht_opmode" and will allow user to check the current HT protection mode selected. Users could configure the protection mode by the command "iw mesh_iface set mesh_param mesh_ht_protection_mode=2". The default protection mode of mesh is set to non-HT mixed mode.

2012-05-08ipvs: add support for sync threadsPablo Neira Ayuso
Allow master and backup servers to use many threads for sync traffic. Add sysctl var "sync_ports" to define the number of threads. Every thread will use single UDP port, thread 0 will use the default port 8848 while last thread will use port 8848+sync_ports-1. The sync traffic for connections is scheduled to many master threads based on the cp address but one connection is always assigned to same thread to avoid reordering of the sync messages. Remove ip_vs_sync_switch_mode because this check for sync mode change is still risky. Instead, check for mode change under sync_buff_lock. Make sure the backup socks do not block on reading. Special thanks to Aleksey Chudov for helping in all tests.

2012-05-08ipvs: reduce sync rate with time thresholdsJulian Anastasov
Add two new sysctl vars to control the sync rate with the main idea to reduce the rate for connection templates because currently it depends on the packet rate for controlled connections. This mechanism should be useful also for normal connections with high traffic. sync_refresh_period: in seconds, difference in reported connection timer that triggers new sync message. It can be used to avoid sync messages for the specified period (or half of the connection timeout if it is lower) if connection state is not changed from last sync. sync_retries: integer, 0..3, defines sync retries with period of sync_refresh_period/8. Useful to protect against loss of sync messages. Allow sysctl_sync_threshold to be used with sysctl_sync_period=0, so that only single sync message is sent if sync_refresh_period is also 0. Add new field "sync_endtime" in connection structure to hold the reported time when connection expires. The 2 lowest bits will represent the retry count. As the sysctl_sync_period now can be 0 use ACCESS_ONCE to avoid division by zero. Special thanks to Aleksey Chudov for being patient with me, for his extensive reports and helping in all tests.

2012-05-08ipvs: wakeup master threadPablo Neira Ayuso
High rate of sync messages in master can lead to overflowing the socket buffer and dropping the messages. Fixed sleep of 1 second without wakeup events is not suitable for loaded masters, Use delayed_work to schedule sending for queued messages and limit the delay to IPVS_SYNC_SEND_DELAY (20ms). This will reduce the rate of wakeups but to avoid sending long bursts we wakeup the master thread after IPVS_SYNC_WAKEUP_RATE (8) messages. Add hard limit for the queued messages before sending by using "sync_qlen_max" sysctl var. It defaults to 1/32 of the memory pages but actually represents number of messages. It will protect us from allocating large parts of memory when the sending rate is lower than the queuing rate. As suggested by Pablo, add new sysctl var "sync_sock_size" to configure the SNDBUF (master) or RCVBUF (slave) socket limit. Default value is 0 (preserve system defaults). Change the master thread to detect and block on SNDBUF overflow, so that we do not drop messages when the socket limit is low but the sync_qlen_max limit is not reached. On ENOBUFS or other errors just drop the messages. Change master thread to enter TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE state early, so that we do not miss wakeups due to messages or kthread_should_stop event.

2012-05-08netfilter: nf_ct_helper: allow to disable automatic helper assignmentEric Leblond
This patch allows you to disable automatic conntrack helper lookup based on TCP/UDP ports, eg. echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_helper [ Note: flows that already got a helper will keep using it even if automatic helper assignment has been disabled ] Once this behaviour has been disabled, you have to explicitly use the iptables CT target to attach helper to flows. There are good reasons to stop supporting automatic helper assignment, for further information, please read: http://www.netfilter.org/news.html#2012-04-03 This patch also adds one message to inform that automatic helper assignment is deprecated and it will be removed soon (this is spotted only once, with the first flow that gets a helper attached to make it as less annoying as possible).

2012-05-04tcp: be more strict before accepting ECN negociationEric Dumazet
It appears some networks play bad games with the two bits reserved for ECN. This can trigger false congestion notifications and very slow transferts. Since RFC 3168 (6.1.1) forbids SYN packets to carry CT bits, we can disable TCP ECN negociation if it happens we receive mangled CT bits in the SYN packet.

2012-05-02tcp: early retransmit: delayed fast retransmitYuchung Cheng
Implementing the advanced early retransmit (sysctl_tcp_early_retrans==2). Delays the fast retransmit by an interval of RTT/4. We borrow the RTO timer to implement the delay. If we receive another ACK or send a new packet, the timer is cancelled and restored to original RTO value offset by time elapsed. When the delayed-ER timer fires, we enter fast recovery and perform fast retransmit.

2012-05-02tcp: early retransmitYuchung Cheng
This patch implements RFC 5827 early retransmit (ER) for TCP. It reduces DUPACK threshold (dupthresh) if outstanding packets are less than 4 to recover losses by fast recovery instead of timeout. While the algorithm is simple, small but frequent network reordering makes this feature dangerous: the connection repeatedly enter false recovery and degrade performance. Therefore we implement a mitigation suggested in the appendix of the RFC that delays entering fast recovery by a small interval, i.e., RTT/4. Currently ER is conservative and is disabled for the rest of the connection after the first reordering event. A large scale web server experiment on the performance impact of ER is summarized in section 6 of the paper "Proportional Rate Reduction for TCP”, IMC 2011. http://conferences.sigcomm.org/imc/2011/docs/p155.pdf Note that Linux has a similar feature called THIN_DUPACK. The differences are THIN_DUPACK do not mitigate reorderings and is only used after slow start. Currently ER is disabled if THIN_DUPACK is enabled. I would be happy to merge THIN_DUPACK feature with ER if people think it's a good idea. ER is enabled by sysctl_tcp_early_retrans: 0: Disables ER 1: Reduce dupthresh to packets_out - 1 when outstanding packets < 4. 2: (Default) reduce dupthresh like mode 1. In addition, delay entering fast recovery by RTT/4. Note: mode 2 is implemented in the third part of this patch series.

2012-04-27ipv6: RTAX_FEATURE_ALLFRAG causes inefficient TCP segment sizingEric Dumazet
Quoting Tore Anderson from : https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42572 When RTAX_FEATURE_ALLFRAG is set on a route, the effective TCP segment size does not take into account the size of the IPv6 Fragmentation header that needs to be included in outbound packets, causing every transmitted TCP segment to be fragmented across two IPv6 packets, the latter of which will only contain 8 bytes of actual payload. RTAX_FEATURE_ALLFRAG is typically set on a route in response to receving a ICMPv6 Packet Too Big message indicating a Path MTU of less than 1280 bytes. 1280 bytes is the minimum IPv6 MTU, however ICMPv6 PTBs with MTU < 1280 are still valid, in particular when an IPv6 packet is sent to an IPv4 destination through a stateless translator. Any ICMPv4 Need To Fragment packets originated from the IPv4 part of the path will be translated to ICMPv6 PTB which may then indicate an MTU of less than 1280. The Linux kernel refuses to reduce the effective MTU to anything below 1280 bytes, instead it sets it to exactly 1280 bytes, and RTAX_FEATURE_ALLFRAG is also set. However, the TCP segment size appears to be set to 1240 bytes (1280 Path MTU - 40 bytes of IPv6 header), instead of 1232 (additionally taking into account the 8 bytes required by the IPv6 Fragmentation extension header). This in turn results in rather inefficient transmission, as every transmitted TCP segment now is split in two fragments containing 1232+8 bytes of payload. After this patch, all the outgoing packets that includes a Fragmentation header all are "atomic" or "non-fragmented" fragments, i.e., they both have Offset=0 and More Fragments=0.

2012-04-21tcp: move duplicate code from tcp_v4_init_sock()/tcp_v6_init_sock()Neal Cardwell
This commit moves the (substantial) common code shared between tcp_v4_init_sock() and tcp_v6_init_sock() to a new address-family independent function, tcp_init_sock(). Centralizing this functionality should help avoid drift issues, e.g. where the IPv4 side is updated without a corresponding update to IPv6. There was already some drift: IPv4 initialized snd_cwnd to TCP_INIT_CWND, while the IPv6 side was still initializing snd_cwnd to 2 (in this case it should not matter, since snd_cwnd is also initialized in tcp_init_metrics(), but the general risks and maintenance overhead remain). When diffing the old and new code, note that new tcp_init_sock() function uses the order of steps from the tcp_v4_init_sock() implementation (the order is slightly different in tcp_v6_init_sock()).

2012-04-21tcp: Initial repair modePavel Emelyanov
This includes (according the the previous description): * TCP_REPAIR sockoption This one just puts the socket in/out of the repair mode. Allowed for CAP_NET_ADMIN and for closed/establised sockets only. When repair mode is turned off and the socket happens to be in the established state the window probe is sent to the peer to 'unlock' the connection. * TCP_REPAIR_QUEUE sockoption This one sets the queue which we're about to repair. The 'no-queue' is set by default. * TCP_QUEUE_SEQ socoption Sets the write_seq/rcv_nxt of a selected repaired queue. Allowed for TCP_CLOSE-d sockets only. When the socket changes its state the other seq-s are changed by the kernel according to the protocol rules (most of the existing code is actually reused). * Ability to forcibly bind a socket to a port The sk->sk_reuse is set to SK_FORCE_REUSE. * Immediate connect modification The connect syscall initializes the connection, then directly jumps to the code which finalizes it. * Silent close modification The close just aborts the connection (similar to SO_LINGER with 0 time) but without sending any FIN/RST-s to peer.

Don't register/unregister every ax25 table in a batch. Instead register and unregister per device ax25 sysctls as ax25 devices come and go. This moves ax25 to be a completely modern sysctl user. Registering the sysctls in just the initial network namespace, removing the use of .child entries that are no longer natively supported by the sysctl core and taking advantage of the fact that there are no longer any ordering constraints between registering and unregistering different sysctl tables.

2012-04-20net: Kill register_sysctl_rotableEric W. Biederman
register_sysctl_rotable never caught on as an interesting way to register sysctls. My take on the situation is that what we want are sysctls that we can only see in the initial network namespace. What we have implemented with register_sysctl_rotable are sysctls that we can see in all of the network namespaces and can only change in the initial network namespace. That is a very silly way to go. Just register the network sysctls in the initial network namespace and we don't have any weird special cases to deal with. The sysctls affected are: /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ipfrag_secret_interval /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ipfrag_max_dist /proc/sys/net/ipv6/ip6frag_secret_interval /proc/sys/net/ipv6/mld_max_msf I really don't expect anyone will miss them if they can't read them in a child user namespace.

2012-04-20net: Implement register_net_sysctl.Eric W. Biederman
Right now all of the networking sysctl registrations are running in a compatibiity mode. The natvie sysctl registration api takes a cstring for a path and a simple ctl_table. Implement register_net_sysctl so that we can register network sysctls without needing to use compatiblity code in the sysctl core. Switching from a ctl_path to a cstring results in less boiler plate and denser code that is a little easier to read. I would simply have changed the arguments to register_net_sysctl_table instead of keeping two functions in parallel but gcc will allow a ctl_path pointer to be passed to a char * pointer with only issuing a warning resulting in completely incorrect code can be built. Since I have to change the function name I am taking advantage of the situation to let both register_net_sysctl and register_net_sysctl_table live for a short time in parallel which makes clean conversion patches a bit easier to read and write.

Functionally, this change is a NOP. Semantically, rt6_clean_expires() wants to do rt->dst.from = NULL instead of rt->dst.expires = 0.

Commit 1716a961 (ipv6: fix problem with expired dst cache) broke PMTU discovery. rt6_update_expires() calls dst_set_expires(), which only updates dst->expires if it has not been set previously (expires == 0) or if the new expires is earlier than the current dst->expires. rt6_update_expires() needs to zero rt->dst.expires, otherwise it will contain ivalid data left over from rt->dst.from and will confuse dst_set_expires().
