This is a follow up of commit aa251c84636c ("tcp: fix too slow
tcp_rcvbuf_grow() action") which brought again the issue that I tried
to fix in commit 65c5287892e9 ("tcp: fix sk_rcvbuf overshoot")
We also recently increased tcp_rmem[2] to 32 MB in commit 572be9bf9d0d
("tcp: increase tcp_rmem[2] to 32 MB")
Idea of this patch is to not let tcp_rcvbuf_grow() grow sk->sk_rcvbuf
too fast for small RTT flows. If sk->sk_rcvbuf is too big, this can
force NIC driver to not recycle pages from their page pool, and also
can cause cache evictions for DDIO enabled cpus/NIC, as receivers
are usually slower than senders.
Add net.ipv4.tcp_rcvbuf_low_rtt sysctl, set by default to 1000 usec (1 ms)
If RTT if smaller than the sysctl value, use the RTT/tcp_rcvbuf_low_rtt
ratio to control sk_rcvbuf inflation.
Tested:
Pair of hosts with a 200Gbit IDPF NIC. Using netperf/netserver
Client initiates 8 TCP bulk flows, asking netserver to use CPU #10 only.
super_netperf 8 -H server -T,10 -l 30
On server, use perf -e tcp:tcp_rcvbuf_grow while test is running.
Before:
sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_rcvbuf_low_rtt=1
perf record -a -e tcp:tcp_rcvbuf_grow sleep 30 ; perf script|tail -20|cut -c30-230

We can see sk_rcvbuf values are much smaller, and that rtt_us (estimation of rtt
from a receiver point of view) is kept small, instead of being bloated.
No difference in throughput.

sysctl_tcp_moderate_rcvbuf is only used from tcp_rcvbuf_grow().
Move it to netns_ipv4_read_rx group.
Remove various CACHELINE_ASSERT_GROUP_SIZE() from netns_ipv4_struct_check(),
as they have no real benefit but cause pain for all changes.

TCP SACK compression has been added in 2018 in commit
5d9f4262b7ea ("tcp: add SACK compression").
It is working great for WAN flows (with large RTT).
Wifi in particular gets a significant boost _when_ ACK are suppressed.
Add a new sysctl so that we can tune the very conservative 5 % value
that has been used so far in this formula, so that small RTT flows
can benefit from this feature.
delay = min ( 5 % of RTT, 1 ms)
This patch adds new tcp_comp_sack_rtt_percent sysctl
to ease experiments and tuning.
Given that we cap the delay to 1ms (tcp_comp_sack_delay_ns sysctl),
set the default value to 33 %.
Quoting Neal Cardwell ( https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/CADVnQymZ1tFnEA1Q=vtECs0=Db7zHQ8=+WCQtnhHFVbEOzjVnQ@mail.gmail.com/ )
The rationale for 33% is basically to try to facilitate pipelining,
where there are always at least 3 ACKs and 3 GSO/TSO skbs per SRTT, so
that the path can maintain a budget for 3 full-sized GSO/TSO skbs "in
flight" at all times:
+ 1 skb in the qdisc waiting to be sent by the NIC next
+ 1 skb being sent by the NIC (being serialized by the NIC out onto the wire)
+ 1 skb being received and aggregated by the receiver machine's
aggregation mechanism (some combination of LRO, GRO, and sack
compression)
Note that this is basically the same magic number (3) and the same
rationales as:
(a) tcp_tso_should_defer() ensuring that we defer sending data for no
longer than cwnd/tcp_tso_win_divisor (where tcp_tso_win_divisor = 3),
and
(b) bbr_quantization_budget() ensuring that cwnd is at least 3 GSO/TSO
skbs to maintain pipelining and full throughput at low RTTs

Add the ability to append the incoming IP interface information to
ICMPv4 error messages in accordance with RFC 5837 and RFC 4884. This is
required for more meaningful traceroute results in unnumbered networks.
The feature is disabled by default and controlled via a new sysctl
("net.ipv4.icmp_errors_extension_mask") which accepts a bitmask of ICMP
extensions to append to ICMP error messages. Currently, only a single
value is supported, but the interface and the implementation should be
able to support more extensions, if needed.
Clone the skb and copy the relevant data portions before modifying the
skb as the caller of __icmp_send() still owns the skb after the function
returns. This should be fine since by default ICMP error messages are
rate limited to 1000 per second and no more than 1 per second per
specific host.
Trim or pad the packet to 128 bytes before appending the ICMP extension
structure in order to be compatible with legacy applications that assume
that the ICMP extension structure always starts at this offset (the
minimum length specified by RFC 4884).

Instead of sending the option in every ACK, limit sending to
those ACKs where the option is necessary:
- Handshake
- "Change-triggered ACK" + the ACK following it. The
2nd ACK is necessary to unambiguously indicate which
of the ECN byte counters in increasing. The first
ACK has two counters increasing due to the ecnfield
edge.
- ACKs with CE to allow CEP delta validations to take
advantage of the option.
- Force option to be sent every at least once per 2^22
bytes. The check is done using the bit edges of the
byte counters (avoids need for extra variables).
- AccECN option beacon to send a few times per RTT even if
nothing in the ECN state requires that. The default is 3
times per RTT, and its period can be set via
sysctl_tcp_ecn_option_beacon.

The Accurate ECN allows echoing back the sum of bytes for
each IP ECN field value in the received packets using
AccECN option. This change implements AccECN option tx & rx
side processing without option send control related features
that are added by a later change.
Based on specification:
https://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-ietf-tcpm-accurate-ecn-28.txt
(Some features of the spec will be added in the later changes
rather than in this one).
A full-length AccECN option is always attempted but if it does
not fit, the minimum length is selected based on the counters
that have changed since the last update. The AccECN option
(with 24-bit fields) often ends in odd sizes so the option
write code tries to take advantage of some nop used to pad
the other TCP options.
The delivered_ecn_bytes pairs with received_ecn_bytes similar
to how delivered_ce pairs with received_ce. In contrast to
ACE field, however, the option is not always available to update
delivered_ecn_bytes. For ACK w/o AccECN option, the delivered
bytes calculated based on the cumulative ACK+SACK information
are assigned to one of the counters using an estimation
heuristic to select the most likely ECN byte counter. Any
estimation error is corrected when the next AccECN option
arrives. It may occur that the heuristic gets too confused
when there are enough different byte counter deltas between
ACKs with the AccECN option in which case the heuristic just
gives up on updating the counters for a while.
tcp_ecn_option sysctl can be used to select option sending
mode for AccECN: TCP_ECN_OPTION_DISABLED, TCP_ECN_OPTION_MINIMUM,
and TCP_ECN_OPTION_FULL.
This patch increases the size of tcp_info struct, as there is
no existing holes for new u32 variables. Below are the pahole
outcomes before and after this patch:

Most UDP tunnels bind a socket to a local port, with ANY address, no
peer and no interface index specified.
Additionally it's quite common to have a single tunnel device per
namespace.
Track in each namespace the UDP tunnel socket respecting the above.
When only a single one is present, store a reference in the netns.
When such reference is not NULL, UDP tunnel GRO lookup just need to
match the incoming packet destination port vs the socket local port.
The tunnel socket never sets the reuse[port] flag[s]. When bound to no
address and interface, no other socket can exist in the same netns
matching the specified local port.
Matching packets with non-local destination addresses will be
aggregated, and eventually segmented as needed - no behavior changes
intended.
Restrict the optimization to kernel sockets only: it covers all the
relevant use-cases, and user-space owned sockets could be disconnected
and rebound after setup_udp_tunnel_sock(), breaking the uniqueness
assumption
Note that the UDP tunnel socket reference is stored into struct
netns_ipv4 for both IPv4 and IPv6 tunnels. That is intentional to keep
all the fastpath-related netns fields in the same struct and allow
cacheline-based optimization. Currently both the IPv4 and IPv6 socket
pointer share the same cacheline as the `udp_table` field.

Today we have a hardcoded delay of 1 sec before a TIME-WAIT socket can be
reused by reopening a connection. This is a safe choice based on an
assumption that the other TCP timestamp clock frequency, which is unknown
to us, may be as low as 1 Hz (RFC 7323, section 5.4).
However, this means that in the presence of short lived connections with an
RTT of couple of milliseconds, the time during which a 4-tuple is blocked
from reuse can be orders of magnitude longer that the connection lifetime.
Combined with a reduced pool of ephemeral ports, when using
IP_LOCAL_PORT_RANGE to share an egress IP address between hosts [1], the
long TIME-WAIT reuse delay can lead to port exhaustion, where all available
4-tuples are tied up in TIME-WAIT state.
Turn the reuse delay into a per-netns setting so that sysadmins can make
more aggressive assumptions about remote TCP timestamp clock frequency and
shorten the delay in order to allow connections to reincarnate faster.
Note that applications can completely bypass the TIME-WAIT delay protection
already today by locking the local port with bind() before connecting. Such
immediate connection reuse may result in PAWS failing to detect old
duplicate segments, leaving us with just the sequence number check as a
safety net.
This new configurable offers a trade off where the sysadmin can balance
between the risk of PAWS detection failing to act versus exhausting ports
by having sockets tied up in TIME-WAIT state for too long.

Each IPv4 address could have a lifetime, which is useful for DHCP,
and GC is periodically executed as check_lifetime_work.
check_lifetime() does the actual GC under RTNL.
1. Acquire RTNL
2. Iterate inet_addr_lst
3. Remove IPv4 address if expired
4. Release RTNL
Namespacifying the GC is required for per-netns RTNL, but using the
per-netns hash table will shorten the time on the hash bucket iteration
under RTNL.
Let's add per-netns GC work and use the per-netns hash table.

When calculating hashes for the purpose of multipath forwarding, both IPv4
and IPv6 code currently fall back on flow_hash_from_keys(). That uses a
randomly-generated seed. That's a fine choice by default, but unfortunately
some deployments may need a tighter control over the seed used.
In this patch, make the seed configurable by adding a new sysctl key,
net.ipv4.fib_multipath_hash_seed to control the seed. This seed is used
specifically for multipath forwarding and not for the other concerns that
flow_hash_from_keys() is used for, such as queue selection. Expose the knob
as sysctl because other such settings, such as headers to hash, are also
handled that way. Like those, the multipath hash seed is a per-netns
variable.
Despite being placed in the net.ipv4 namespace, the multipath seed sysctl
is used for both IPv4 and IPv6, similarly to e.g. a number of TCP
variables.
The seed used by flow_hash_from_keys() is a 128-bit quantity. However it
seems that usually the seed is a much more modest value. 32 bits seem
typical (Cisco, Cumulus), some systems go even lower. For that reason, and
to decouple the user interface from implementation details, go with a
32-bit quantity, which is then quadruplicated to form the siphash key.

This is overkill because the two 16bit port numbers can be held in

More recently 91d0b78c5177f added support for finer per-socket limits.
The user-supplied value is 'high << 16 | low' but they are held
separately and the socket options protected by the socket lock.
Use a u32 containing 'high << 16 | low' for both the 'net' and 'sk'
fields and use READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() to ensure both values are
always updated together.

This idea came after a particular workload requested
the quickack attribute set on routes, and a performance
drop was noticed for large bulk transfers.
For high throughput flows, it is best to use one cpu
running the user thread issuing socket system calls,
and a separate cpu to process incoming packets from BH context.
(With TSO/GRO, bottleneck is usually the 'user' cpu)
Problem is the user thread can spend a lot of time while holding
the socket lock, forcing BH handler to queue most of incoming
packets in the socket backlog.
Whenever the user thread releases the socket lock, it must first
process all accumulated packets in the backlog, potentially
adding latency spikes. Due to flood mitigation, having too many
packets in the backlog increases chance of unexpected drops.
Backlog processing unfortunately shifts a fair amount of cpu cycles
from the BH cpu to the 'user' cpu, thus reducing max throughput.
This patch takes advantage of the backlog processing,
and the fact that ACK are mostly cumulative.
The idea is to detect we are in the backlog processing
and defer all eligible ACK into a single one,
sent from tcp_release_cb().
This saves cpu cycles on both sides, and network resources.
Performance of a single TCP flow on a 200Gbit NIC:
- Throughput is increased by 20% (100Gbit -> 120Gbit).
- Number of generated ACK per second shrinks from 240,000 to 40,000.
- Number of backlog drops per second shrinks from 230 to 0.
Benchmark context:
- Regular netperf TCP_STREAM (no zerocopy)
- Intel(R) Xeon(R) Platinum 8481C (Saphire Rapids)
- MAX_SKB_FRAGS = 17 (~60KB per GRO packet)
This feature is guarded by a new sysctl, and enabled by default:

With modern NIC drivers shifting to full page allocations per
received frame, we face the following issue:
TCP has one per-netns sysctl used to tweak how to translate
a memory use into an expected payload (RWIN), in RX path.
tcp_win_from_space() implementation is limited to few cases.
For hosts dealing with various MSS, we either under estimate
or over estimate the RWIN we send to the remote peers.
For instance with the default sysctl_tcp_adv_win_scale value,
we expect to store 50% of payload per allocated chunk of memory.
For the typical use of MTU=1500 traffic, and order-0 pages allocations
by NIC drivers, we are sending too big RWIN, leading to potential
tcp collapse operations, which are extremely expensive and source
of latency spikes.
This patch makes sysctl_tcp_adv_win_scale obsolete, and instead
uses a per socket scaling factor, so that we can precisely
adjust the RWIN based on effective skb->len/skb->truesize ratio.
This patch alone can double TCP receive performance when receivers
are too slow to drain their receive queue, or by allowing
a bigger RWIN when MSS is close to PAGE_SIZE.

Under certain circumstances, the tcp receive buffer memory limit
set by autotuning (sk_rcvbuf) is increased due to incoming data
packets as a result of the window not closing when it should be.
This can result in the receive buffer growing all the way up to
tcp_rmem[2], even for tcp sessions with a low BDP.
To reproduce: Connect a TCP session with the receiver doing
nothing and the sender sending small packets (an infinite loop
of socket send() with 4 bytes of payload with a sleep of 1 ms
in between each send()). This will cause the tcp receive buffer
to grow all the way up to tcp_rmem[2].
As a result, a host can have individual tcp sessions with receive
buffers of size tcp_rmem[2], and the host itself can reach tcp_mem
limits, causing the host to go into tcp memory pressure mode.
The fundamental issue is the relationship between the granularity
of the window scaling factor and the number of byte ACKed back
to the sender. This problem has previously been identified in
RFC 7323, appendix F [1].
The Linux kernel currently adheres to never shrinking the window.
In addition to the overallocation of memory mentioned above, the
current behavior is functionally incorrect, because once tcp_rmem[2]
is reached when no remediations remain (i.e. tcp collapse fails to
free up any more memory and there are no packets to prune from the
out-of-order queue), the receiver will drop in-window packets
resulting in retransmissions and an eventual timeout of the tcp
session. A receive buffer full condition should instead result
in a zero window and an indefinite wait.
In practice, this problem is largely hidden for most flows. It
is not applicable to mice flows. Elephant flows can send data
fast enough to "overrun" the sk_rcvbuf limit (in a single ACK),
triggering a zero window.
But this problem does show up for other types of flows. Examples
are websockets and other type of flows that send small amounts of
data spaced apart slightly in time. In these cases, we directly
encounter the problem described in [1].
RFC 7323, section 2.4 [2], says there are instances when a retracted
window can be offered, and that TCP implementations MUST ensure
that they handle a shrinking window, as specified in RFC 1122,
section 4.2.2.16 [3]. All prior RFCs on the topic of tcp window
management have made clear that sender must accept a shrunk window
from the receiver, including RFC 793 [4] and RFC 1323 [5].
This patch implements the functionality to shrink the tcp window
when necessary to keep the right edge within the memory limit by
autotuning (sk_rcvbuf). This new functionality is enabled with
the new sysctl: net.ipv4.tcp_shrink_window

Currently the SYN RTO schedule follows an exponential backoff
scheme, which can be unnecessarily conservative in cases where
there are link failures. In such cases, it's better to
aggressively try to retransmit packets, so it takes routers
less time to find a repath with a working link.
We chose a default value for this sysctl of 4, to follow
the macOS and IOS backoff scheme of 1,1,1,1,1,2,4,8, ...
MacOS and IOS have used this backoff schedule for over
a decade, since before this 2009 IETF presentation
discussed the behavior:
https://www.ietf.org/proceedings/75/slides/tcpm-1.pdf
This commit makes the SYN RTO schedule start with a number of
linear backoffs given by the following sysctl:
* tcp_syn_linear_timeouts
This changes the SYN RTO scheme to be: init_rto_val for
tcp_syn_linear_timeouts, exp backoff starting at init_rto_val
For example if init_rto_val = 1 and tcp_syn_linear_timeouts = 2, our
backoff scheme would be: 1, 1, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, ...

The maximum hash table size is 64K due to the nature of the protocol. [0]
It's smaller than TCP, and fewer sockets can cause a performance drop.
On an EC2 c5.24xlarge instance (192 GiB memory), after running iperf3 in
different netns, creating 32Mi sockets without data transfer in the root
netns causes regression for the iperf3's connection.
uhash_entries sockets length Gbps
64K 1 1 5.69
1Mi 16 5.27
2Mi 32 4.90
4Mi 64 4.09
8Mi 128 2.96
16Mi 256 2.06
32Mi 512 1.12
The per-netns hash table breaks the lengthy lists into shorter ones. It is
useful on a multi-tenant system with thousands of netns. With smaller hash
tables, we can look up sockets faster, isolate noisy neighbours, and reduce
lock contention.
The max size of the per-netns table is 64K as well. This is because the
possible hash range by udp_hashfn() always fits in 64K within the same
netns and we cannot make full use of the whole buckets larger than 64K.
/* 0 < num < 64K -> X < hash < X + 64K */
(num + net_hash_mix(net)) & mask;
Also, the min size is 128. We use a bitmap to search for an available
port in udp_lib_get_port(). To keep the bitmap on the stack and not
fire the CONFIG_FRAME_WARN error at build time, we round up the table
size to 128.
The sysctl usage is the same with TCP:
$ dmesg | cut -d ' ' -f 6- | grep "UDP hash"
UDP hash table entries: 65536 (order: 9, 2097152 bytes, vmalloc)
# sysctl net.ipv4.udp_hash_entries
net.ipv4.udp_hash_entries = 65536 # can be changed by uhash_entries
# sysctl net.ipv4.udp_child_hash_entries
net.ipv4.udp_child_hash_entries = 0 # disabled by default
# ip netns add test1
# ip netns exec test1 sysctl net.ipv4.udp_hash_entries
net.ipv4.udp_hash_entries = -65536 # share the global table
# sysctl -w net.ipv4.udp_child_hash_entries=100
net.ipv4.udp_child_hash_entries = 100
# ip netns add test2
# ip netns exec test2 sysctl net.ipv4.udp_hash_entries
net.ipv4.udp_hash_entries = 128 # own a per-netns table with 2^n buckets
We could optimise the hash table lookup/iteration further by removing
the netns comparison for the per-netns one in the future. Also, we
could optimise the sparse udp_hslot layout by putting it in udp_table.
