8ed1dc44d3 ipv4: introduce hardened ip_no_pmtu_disc mode
This new ip_no_pmtu_disc mode only allowes fragmentation-needed errors
to be honored by protocols which do more stringent validation on the
ICMP's packet payload. This knob is useful for people who e.g. want to
run an unmodified DNS server in a namespace where they need to use pmtu
for TCP connections (as they are used for zone transfers or fallback
for requests) but don't want to use possibly spoofed UDP pmtu information.

Currently the whitelisted protocols are TCP, SCTP and DCCP as they check
if the returned packet is in the window or if the association is valid.

bf5a755f5e net-gre-gro: Add GRE support to the GRO stack
This patch built on top of Commit 299603e837
("net-gro: Prepare GRO stack for the upcoming tunneling support") to add
the support of the standard GRE (RFC1701/RFC2784/RFC2890) to the GRO
stack. It also serves as an example for supporting other encapsulation
protocols in the GRO stack in the future.

The patch supports version 0 and all the flags (key, csum, seq#) but
will flush any pkt with the S (seq#) flag. This is because the S flag
is not support by GSO, and a GRO pkt may end up in the forwarding path,
thus requiring GSO support to break it up correctly.

Currently the "packet_offload" structure only contains L3 (ETH_P_IP/
ETH_P_IPV6) GRO offload support so the encapped pkts are limited to
IP pkts (i.e., w/o L2 hdr). But support for other protocol type can
be easily added, so is the support for GRE variations like NVGRE.

The patch also support csum offload. Specifically if the csum flag is on
and the h/w is capable of checksumming the payload (CHECKSUM_COMPLETE),
the code will take advantage of the csum computed by the h/w when
validating the GRE csum.

Note that commit 60769a5dcd "ipv4: gre:
add GRO capability" already introduces GRO capability to IPv4 GRE
tunnels, using the gro_cells infrastructure. But GRO is done after
GRE hdr has been removed (i.e., decapped). The following patch applies
GRO when pkts first come in (before hitting the GRE tunnel code). There
is some performance advantage for applying GRO as early as possible.
Also this approach is transparent to other subsystem like Open vSwitch
where GRE decap is handled outside of the IP stack hence making it
harder for the gro_cells stuff to apply. On the other hand, some NICs
are still not capable of hashing on the inner hdr of a GRE pkt (RSS).
In that case the GRO processing of pkts from the same remote host will
all happen on the same CPU and the performance may be suboptimal.

I'm including some rough preliminary performance numbers below. Note
that the performance will be highly dependent on traffic load, mix as
usual. Moreover it also depends on NIC offload features hence the
following is by no means a comprehesive study. Local testing and tuning
will be needed to decide the best setting.

All tests spawned 50 copies of netperf TCP_STREAM and ran for 30 secs.
(super_netperf 50 -H 192.168.1.18 -l 30)

An IP GRE tunnel with only the key flag on (e.g., ip tunnel add gre1
mode gre local 10.246.17.18 remote 10.246.17.17 ttl 255 key 123)
is configured.

The GRO support for pkts AFTER decap are controlled through the device
feature of the GRE device (e.g., ethtool -K gre1 gro on/off).

1.1 ethtool -K gre1 gro off; ethtool -K eth0 gro off
thruput: 9.16Gbps
CPU utilization: 19%

1.2 ethtool -K gre1 gro on; ethtool -K eth0 gro off
thruput: 5.9Gbps
CPU utilization: 15%

1.3 ethtool -K gre1 gro off; ethtool -K eth0 gro on
thruput: 9.26Gbps
CPU utilization: 12-13%

1.4 ethtool -K gre1 gro on; ethtool -K eth0 gro on
thruput: 9.26Gbps
CPU utilization: 10%

The following tests were performed on a different NIC that is capable of
csum offload. I.e., the h/w is capable of computing IP payload csum
(CHECKSUM_COMPLETE).

2.1 ethtool -K gre1 gro on (hence will use gro_cells)

2.1.1 ethtool -K eth0 gro off; csum offload disabled
thruput: 8.53Gbps
CPU utilization: 9%

2.1.2 ethtool -K eth0 gro off; csum offload enabled
thruput: 8.97Gbps
CPU utilization: 7-8%

2.1.3 ethtool -K eth0 gro on; csum offload disabled
thruput: 8.83Gbps
CPU utilization: 5-6%

2.1.4 ethtool -K eth0 gro on; csum offload enabled
thruput: 8.98Gbps
CPU utilization: 5%

2.2 ethtool -K gre1 gro off

2.2.1 ethtool -K eth0 gro off; csum offload disabled
thruput: 5.93Gbps
CPU utilization: 9%

2.2.2 ethtool -K eth0 gro off; csum offload enabled

2.2.3 ethtool -K eth0 gro on; csum offload disabled

2) Make xfrm migration namespace aware. From Fan Du.

3) Make the xfrm state and policy locks namespace aware. From Fan Du.

4) Remove ancient sleeping when the SA is in acquire state,
   we now queue packets to the policy instead. This replaces the
   sleeping code.

5) Remove FLOWI_FLAG_CAN_SLEEP. This was used to notify xfrm about the
   posibility to sleep. The sleeping code is gone, so remove it.

6) Check user specified spi for IPComp. Thr spi for IPcomp is only
   16 bit wide, so check for a valid value. From Fan Du.

7) Export verify_userspi_info to check for valid user supplied spi ranges
   with pfkey and netlink. From Fan Du.

8) RFC3173 states that if the total size of a compressed payload and the IPComp
   header is not smaller than the size of the original payload, the IP datagram
   must be sent in the original non-compressed form. These packets are dropped
   by the inbound policy check because they are not transformed. Document the need
   to set 'level use' for IPcomp to receive such packets anyway. From Fan Du.

Please pull or let me know if there are problems.

299603e837 net-gro: Prepare GRO stack for the upcoming tunneling support
This patch modifies the GRO stack to avoid the use of "network_header"
and associated macros like ip_hdr() and ipv6_hdr() in order to allow
an arbitary number of IP hdrs (v4 or v6) to be used in the
encapsulation chain. This lays the foundation for various IP
tunneling support (IP-in-IP, GRE, VXLAN, SIT,...) to be added later.

With this patch, the GRO stack traversing now is mostly based on
skb_gro_offset rather than special hdr offsets saved in skb (e.g.,
skb->network_header). As a result all but the top layer (i.e., the
the transport layer) must have hdrs of the same length in order for
a pkt to be considered for aggregation. Therefore when adding a new
encap layer (e.g., for tunneling), one must check and skip flows
(e.g., by setting NAPI_GRO_CB(p)->same_flow to 0) that have a
different hdr length.

Note that unlike the network header, the transport header can and
will continue to be set by the GRO code since there will be at
most one "transport layer" in the encap chain.

dcd6077183 inet: fix a UFO regression
While testing virtio_net and skb_segment() changes, Hannes reported
that UFO was sending wrong frames.

It appears this was introduced by a recent commit :
8c3a897bfa ("inet: restore gso for vxlan")

The old condition to perform IP frag was :

tunnel = !!skb->encapsulation;
...
        if (!tunnel && proto == IPPROTO_UDP) {

So the new one should be :

udpfrag = !skb->encapsulation && proto == IPPROTO_UDP;
...
        if (udpfrag) {

Initialization of udpfrag must be done before call
to ops->callbacks.gso_segment(skb, features), as
skb_udp_tunnel_segment() clears skb->encapsulation

(We want udpfrag to be true for UFO, false for VXLAN)

827da44c61 net: Explicitly initialize u64_stats_sync structures for lockdep
In order to enable lockdep on seqcount/seqlock structures, we
must explicitly initialize any locks.

The u64_stats_sync structure, uses a seqcount, and thus we need
to introduce a u64_stats_init() function and use it to initialize
the structure.

This unfortunately adds a lot of fairly trivial initialization code
to a number of drivers. But the benefit of ensuring correctness makes
this worth while.

Because these changes are required for lockdep to be enabled, and the
changes are quite trivial, I've not yet split this patch out into 30-some
separate patches, as I figured it would be better to get the various
maintainers thoughts on how to best merge this change along with
the seqcount lockdep enablement.

Feedback would be appreciated!

8c3a897bfa inet: restore gso for vxlan
Alexei reported a performance regression on vxlan, caused
by commit 3347c96029 "ipv4: gso: make inet_gso_segment() stackable"

GSO vxlan packets were not properly segmented, adding IP fragments
while they were not expected.

Rename 'bool tunnel' to 'bool encap', and add a new boolean
to express the fact that UDP should be fragmented.
This fragmentation is triggered by skb->encapsulation being set.

Remove a "skb->encapsulation = 1" added in above commit,
as its not needed, as frags inherit skb->frag from original
GSO skb.

421b3885bf udp: ipv4: Add udp early demux
The removal of the routing cache introduced a performance regression for
some UDP workloads since a dst lookup must be done for each packet.
This change caches the dst per socket in a similar manner to what we do
for TCP by implementing early_demux.

For UDP multicast we can only cache the dst if there is only one
receiving socket on the host.  Since caching only works when there is
one receiving socket we do the multicast socket lookup using RCU.

For UDP unicast we only demux sockets with an exact match in order to
not break forwarding setups.  Additionally since the hash chains may be
long we only check the first socket to see if it is a match and not
waste extra time searching the whole chain when we might not find an
exact match.

Before 87961.22 transactions/s
After  89789.68 transactions/s

28850dc7c7 net: tcp: move GRO/GSO functions to tcp_offload
Would be good to make things explicit and move those functions to
a new file called tcp_offload.c, thus make this similar to tcpv6_offload.c.
While moving all related functions into tcp_offload.c, we can also
make some of them static, since they are only used there. Also, add
an explicit registration function.

db8caf3dbc gro: should aggregate frames without DF
GRO on IPv4 doesn't aggregate frames if they don't have DF bit set.

Some servers use IP_MTU_DISCOVER/IP_PMTUDISC_PROBE, so linux receivers
are unable to aggregate this kind of traffic.

The right thing to do is to allow aggregation as long as the DF bit has
same value on all segments.

bnx2x LRO does this correctly.

0d89d2035f MPLS: Add limited GSO support
In the case where a non-MPLS packet is received and an MPLS stack is
added it may well be the case that the original skb is GSO but the
NIC used for transmit does not support GSO of MPLS packets.

The aim of this code is to provide GSO in software for MPLS packets
whose skbs are GSO.

SKB Usage:

When an implementation adds an MPLS stack to a non-MPLS packet it should do
the following to skb metadata:

* Set skb->inner_protocol to the old non-MPLS ethertype of the packet.
  skb->inner_protocol is added by this patch.

* Set skb->protocol to the new MPLS ethertype of the packet.

* Set skb->network_header to correspond to the
  end of the L3 header, including the MPLS label stack.

I have posted a patch, "[PATCH v3.29] datapath: Add basic MPLS support to
kernel" which adds MPLS support to the kernel datapath of Open vSwtich.
That patch sets the above requirements in datapath/actions.c:push_mpls()
and was used to exercise this code.  The datapath patch is against the Open
vSwtich tree but it is intended that it be added to the Open vSwtich code
present in the mainline Linux kernel at some point.

Features:

I believe that the approach that I have taken is at least partially
consistent with the handling of other protocols.  Jesse, I understand that
you have some ideas here.  I am more than happy to change my implementation.

This patch adds dev->mpls_features which may be used by devices
to advertise features supported for MPLS packets.

A new NETIF_F_MPLS_GSO feature is added for devices which support
hardware MPLS GSO offload.  Currently no devices support this
and MPLS GSO always falls back to software.

Alternate Implementation:

One possible alternate implementation is to teach netif_skb_features()
and skb_network_protocol() about MPLS, in a similar way to their
understanding of VLANs. I believe this would avoid the need
for net/mpls/mpls_gso.c and in particular the calls to
__skb_push() and __skb_push() in mpls_gso_segment().

I have decided on the implementation in this patch as it should
not introduce any overhead in the case where mpls_gso is not compiled
into the kernel or inserted as a module.

MPLS GSO suggested by Jesse Gross.

c544193214 GRE: Refactor GRE tunneling code.
Following patch refactors GRE code into ip tunneling code and GRE
specific code. Common tunneling code is moved to ip_tunnel module.
ip_tunnel module is written as generic library which can be used
by different tunneling implementations.

ip_tunnel module contains following components:
 - packet xmit and rcv generic code. xmit flow looks like
   (gre_xmit/ipip_xmit)->ip_tunnel_xmit->ip_local_out.
 - hash table of all devices.
 - lookup for tunnel devices.
 - control plane operations like device create, destroy, ioctl, netlink
   operations code.
 - registration for tunneling modules, like gre, ipip etc.
 - define single pcpu_tstats dev->tstats.
 - struct tnl_ptk_info added to pass parsed tunnel packet parameters.

ipip.h header is renamed to ip_tunnel.h

It looks like its possible to open thousands of TCP IPv6
sessions on a server, all landing in a single slot of TCP hash
table. Incoming packets have to lookup sockets in a very
long list.

We should hash all bits from foreign IPv6 addresses, using
a salt and hash mix, not a simple XOR.

inet6_ehashfn() can also separately use the ports, instead
of xoring them.

need to push inner and outer headers to every segment.
New NETIF_F_GRE_GSO feature is added for devices which support HW
GRE TSO offload. Currently none of devices support it therefore GRE GSO
always fall backs to software GSO.

c9af6db4c1 net: Fix possible wrong checksum generation.
Patch cef401de7b (net: fix possible wrong checksum
generation) fixed wrong checksum calculation but it broke TSO by
defining new GSO type but not a netdev feature for that type.
net_gso_ok() would not allow hardware checksum/segmentation
offload of such packets without the feature.

Following patch fixes TSO and wrong checksum. This patch uses
same logic that Eric Dumazet used. Patch introduces new flag
SKBTX_SHARED_FRAG if at least one frag can be modified by
the user. but SKBTX_SHARED_FRAG flag is kept in skb shared
info tx_flags rather than gso_type.

tx_flags is better compared to gso_type since we can have skb with
shared frag without gso packet. It does not link SHARED_FRAG to
GSO, So there is no need to define netdev feature for this.

cef401de7b net: fix possible wrong checksum generation
Pravin Shelar mentioned that GSO could potentially generate
wrong TX checksum if skb has fragments that are overwritten
by the user between the checksum computation and transmit.

He suggested to linearize skbs but this extra copy can be
avoided for normal tcp skbs cooked by tcp_sendmsg().

This patch introduces a new SKB_GSO_SHARED_FRAG flag, set
in skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_type if at least one frag can be
modified by the user.

Typical sources of such possible overwrites are {vm}splice(),
sendfile(), and macvtap/tun/virtio_net drivers.

Tested:

$ netperf -H 7.7.8.84
MIGRATED TCP STREAM TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET to

Performance of the SENDFILE is impacted by the extra allocation and
copy, and because we use order-0 pages, while the TCP_STREAM uses
bigger pages.

8336886f78 tcp: TCP Fast Open Server - support TFO listeners
This patch builds on top of the previous patch to add the support
for TFO listeners. This includes -

1. allocating, properly initializing, and managing the per listener
fastopen_queue structure when TFO is enabled

2. changes to the inet_csk_accept code to support TFO. E.g., the
request_sock can no longer be freed upon accept(), not until 3WHS
finishes

3. allowing a TCP_SYN_RECV socket to properly poll() and sendmsg()
if it's a TFO socket

4. properly closing a TFO listener, and a TFO socket before 3WHS
finishes

5. supporting TCP_FASTOPEN socket option

6. modifying tcp_check_req() to use to check a TFO socket as well
as request_sock

7. supporting TCP's TFO cookie option

8. adding a new SYN-ACK retransmit handler to use the timer directly
off the TFO socket rather than the listener socket. Note that TFO
server side will not retransmit anything other than SYN-ACK until
the 3WHS is completed.

The patch also contains an important function
"reqsk_fastopen_remove()" to manage the somewhat complex relation
between a listener, its request_sock, and the corresponding child
socket. See the comment above the function for the detail.

a9e050f4e7 net: tcp: GRO should be ECN friendly
While doing TCP ECN tests, I discovered GRO was reordering packets if it
receives one packet with CE set, while previous packets in same NAPI run
have ECT(0) for the same flow :

09:25:25.857620 IP (tos 0x2,ECT(0), ttl 64, id 27893, offset 0, flags
[DF], proto TCP (6), length 4396)
    172.30.42.19.54550 > 172.30.42.13.44139: Flags [.], seq
233801:238145, ack 1, win 115, options [nop,nop,TS val 3397779 ecr
1990627], length 4344

09:25:25.857626 IP (tos 0x3,CE, ttl 64, id 27892, offset 0, flags [DF],
proto TCP (6), length 1500)
    172.30.42.19.54550 > 172.30.42.13.44139: Flags [.], seq
232353:233801, ack 1, win 115, options [nop,nop,TS val 3397779 ecr
1990627], length 1448

09:25:25.857638 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 34581, offset 0, flags [DF],
proto TCP (6), length 64)
    172.30.42.13.44139 > 172.30.42.19.54550: Flags [.], cksum 0xac8f
(incorrect -> 0xca69), ack 232353, win 1271, options [nop,nop,TS val
1990627 ecr 3397779,nop,nop,sack 1 {233801:238145}], length 0

We have two problems here :

1) GRO reorders packets

  If NIC gave packet1, then packet2, which happen to be from "different
flows"  GRO feeds stack with packet2, then packet1. I have yet to
understand how to solve this problem.

2) GRO is not ECN friendly

Delivering packets out of order makes TCP stack not as fast as it could
be.

In this patch I suggest we make the tos test not part of the 'same_flow'
determination, but part of the 'should flush' logic
