* tcp: fix tcp_fastretrans_alert warningYuchung Cheng2017-11-241-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [ Upstream commit 0eb96bf754d7fa6635aa0b0f6650c74b8a6b1cc9 ] This patch fixes the cause of an WARNING indicatng TCP has pending retransmission in Open state in tcp_fastretrans_alert(). The root cause is a bad interaction between path mtu probing, if enabled, and the RACK loss detection. Upong receiving a SACK above the sequence of the MTU probing packet, RACK could mark the probe packet lost in tcp_fastretrans_alert(), prior to calling tcp_simple_retransmit(). tcp_simple_retransmit() only enters Loss state if it newly marks the probe packet lost. If the probe packet is already identified as lost by RACK, the sender remains in Open state with some packets marked lost and retransmitted. Then the next SACK would trigger the warning. The likely scenario is that the probe packet was lost due to its size or network congestion. The actual impact of this warning is small by potentially entering fast recovery an ACK later. The simple fix is always entering recovery (Loss) state if some packet is marked lost during path MTU probing.

* tcp: when rearming RTO, if RTO time is in past then fire RTO ASAPNeal Cardwell2017-08-181-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In some situations tcp_send_loss_probe() can realize that it's unable to send a loss probe (TLP), and falls back to calling tcp_rearm_rto() to schedule an RTO timer. In such cases, sometimes tcp_rearm_rto() realizes that the RTO was eligible to fire immediately or at some point in the past (delta_us <= 0). Previously in such cases tcp_rearm_rto() was scheduling such "overdue" RTOs to happen at now + icsk_rto, which caused needless delays of hundreds of milliseconds (and non-linear behavior that made reproducible testing difficult). This commit changes the logic to schedule "overdue" RTOs ASAP, rather than at now + icsk_rto.

* tcp: fix xmit timer to only be reset if data ACKed/SACKedNeal Cardwell2017-08-031-9/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix a TCP loss recovery performance bug raised recently on the netdev list, in two threads: (i) July 26, 2017: netdev thread "TCP fast retransmit issues" (ii) July 26, 2017: netdev thread: "[PATCH V2 net-next] TLP: Don't reschedule PTO when there's one outstanding TLP retransmission" The basic problem is that incoming TCP packets that did not indicate forward progress could cause the xmit timer (TLP or RTO) to be rearmed and pushed back in time. In certain corner cases this could result in the following problems noted in these threads: - Repeated ACKs coming in with bogus SACKs corrupted by middleboxes could cause TCP to repeatedly schedule TLPs forever. We kept sending TLPs after every ~200ms, which elicited bogus SACKs, which caused more TLPs, ad infinitum; we never fired an RTO to fill in the holes. - Incoming data segments could, in some cases, cause us to reschedule our RTO or TLP timer further out in time, for no good reason. This could cause repeated inbound data to result in stalls in outbound data, in the presence of packet loss. This commit fixes these bugs by changing the TLP and RTO ACK processing to: (a) Only reschedule the xmit timer once per ACK. (b) Only reschedule the xmit timer if tcp_clean_rtx_queue() deems the ACK indicates sufficient forward progress (a packet was cumulatively ACKed, or we got a SACK for a packet that was sent before the most recent retransmit of the write queue head). This brings us back into closer compliance with the RFCs, since, as the comment for tcp_rearm_rto() notes, we should only restart the RTO timer after forward progress on the connection. Previously we were restarting the xmit timer even in these cases where there was no forward progress. As a side benefit, this commit simplifies and speeds up the TCP timer arming logic. We had been calling inet_csk_reset_xmit_timer() three times on normal ACKs that cumulatively acknowledged some data: 1) Once near the top of tcp_ack() to switch from TLP timer to RTO: if (icsk->icsk_pending == ICSK_TIME_LOSS_PROBE) tcp_rearm_rto(sk); 2) Once in tcp_clean_rtx_queue(), to update the RTO: if (flag & FLAG_ACKED) { tcp_rearm_rto(sk); 3) Once in tcp_ack() after tcp_fastretrans_alert() to switch from RTO to TLP: if (icsk->icsk_pending == ICSK_TIME_RETRANS) tcp_schedule_loss_probe(sk); This commit, by only rescheduling the xmit timer once per ACK, simplifies the code and reduces CPU overhead. This commit was tested in an A/B test with Google web server traffic. SNMP stats and request latency metrics were within noise levels, substantiating that for normal web traffic patterns this is a rare issue. This commit was also tested with packetdrill tests to verify that it fixes the timer behavior in the corner cases discussed in the netdev threads mentioned above.

* tcp: use TS opt on RTTs for congestion controlYuchung Cheng2017-06-021-7/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently when a data packet is retransmitted, we do not compute an RTT sample for congestion control due to Kern's check. Therefore the congestion control that uses RTT signals may not receive any update during loss recovery which could last many round trips. For example, BBR and Vegas may not be able to update its min RTT estimation if the network path has shortened until it recovers from losses. This patch mitigates that by using TCP timestamp options for RTT measurement for congestion control. Note that we already use timestamps for RTT estimation.

The scenario is as follows (all packets have empty payloads, no window scaling, rcv/snd window size should not be a factor): TEST HARNESS (CLIENT) LINUX SERVER 1. - LISTEN (server listen, then accepts) 2. - --> <SEQ=100><CTL=SYN> --> SYN-RECEIVED 3. - <-- <SEQ=300><ACK=101><CTL=SYN,ACK> <-- SYN-RECEIVED 4. - --> <SEQ=101><ACK=301><CTL=ACK> --> ESTABLISHED 5. - <-- <SEQ=301><ACK=101><CTL=FIN,ACK> <-- FIN WAIT-1 (server opts to close the data connection calling "close" on the connection socket) 6. - --> <SEQ=101><ACK=99999><CTL=FIN,ACK> --> CLOSING (client sends FIN,ACK with not yet sent acknowledgement number) 7. - <-- <SEQ=302><ACK=102><CTL=ACK> <-- CLOSING (ACK is 102 instead of 101, why?) ... (silence from CLIENT) 8. - <-- <SEQ=301><ACK=102><CTL=FIN,ACK> <-- CLOSING (retransmission, again ACK is 102) Now, note that packet 6 while having the expected sequence number, acknowledges something that wasn't sent by the server. So I would expect the packet to maybe prompt an ACK response from the server, and then be ignored. Yet it is not ignored and actually leads to an increase of the acknowledgement number in the server's retransmission of the FIN,ACK packet. The explanation I found is that the FIN in packet 6 was processed, despite the acknowledgement number being unacceptable. Further experiments indeed show that the server processes this FIN, transitioning to CLOSING, then on receiving an ACK for the FIN it had send in packet 5, the server (or better said connection) transitions from CLOSING to TIME_WAIT (as signaled by netstat). </quote> Indeed, tcp_rcv_state_process() calls tcp_ack() but does not exploit the @acceptable status but for TCP_SYN_RECV state. What we want here is to send a challenge ACK, if not in TCP_SYN_RECV state. TCP_FIN_WAIT1 state is not the only state we should fix. Add a FLAG_NO_CHALLENGE_ACK so that tcp_rcv_state_process() can choose to send a challenge ACK and discard the packet instead of wrongly change socket state. With help from Neal Cardwell.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | tcp_ack() can call tcp_fragment() which may dededuct the value tp->fackets_out when MSS changes. When prior_fackets is larger than tp->fackets_out, tcp_clean_rtx_queue() can invoke tcp_update_reordering() with negative values. This results in absurd tp->reodering values higher than sysctl_tcp_max_reordering. Note that tcp_update_reordering indeeds sets tp->reordering to min(sysctl_tcp_max_reordering, metric), but because the comparison is signed, a negative metric always wins.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | TCP Timestamps option is defined in RFC 7323 Traditionally on linux, it has been tied to the internal 'jiffies' variable, because it had been a cheap and good enough generator. For TCP flows on the Internet, 1 ms resolution would be much better than 4ms or 10ms (HZ=250 or HZ=100 respectively) For TCP flows in the DC, Google has used usec resolution for more than two years with great success [1] Receive size autotuning (DRS) is indeed more precise and converges faster to optimal window size. This patch converts tp->tcp_mstamp to a plain u64 value storing a 1 usec TCP clock. This choice will allow us to upstream the 1 usec TS option as discussed in IETF 97.

* tcp: avoid fragmenting peculiar skbs in SACKYuchung Cheng2017-05-111-4/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes a bug in splitting an SKB during SACK processing. Specifically if an skb contains multiple packets and is only partially sacked in the higher sequences, tcp_match_sack_to_skb() splits the skb and marks the second fragment as SACKed. The current code further attempts rounding up the first fragment to MSS boundaries. But it misses a boundary condition when the rounded-up fragment size (pkt_len) is exactly skb size. Spliting such an skb is pointless and causses a kernel warning and aborts the SACK processing. This patch universally checks such over-split before calling tcp_fragment to prevent these unnecessary warnings.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Whole point of randomization was to hide server uptime, but an attacker can simply start a syn flood and TCP generates 'old style' timestamps, directly revealing server jiffies value. Also, TSval sent by the server to a particular remote address vary depending on syncookies being sent or not, potentially triggering PAWS drops for innocent clients. Lets implement proper randomization, including for SYNcookies. Also we do not need to export sysctl_tcp_timestamps, since it is not used from a module. In v2, I added Florian feedback and contribution, adding tsoff to tcp_get_cookie_sock(). v3 removed one unused variable in tcp_v4_connect() as Florian spotted.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some devices or distributions use HZ=100 or HZ=250 TCP receive buffer autotuning has poor behavior caused by this choice. Since autotuning happens after 4 ms or 10 ms, short distance flows get their receive buffer tuned to a very high value, but after an initial period where it was frozen to (too small) initial value. With tp->tcp_mstamp introduction, we can switch to high resolution timestamps almost for free (at the expense of 8 additional bytes per TCP structure) Note that some TCP stacks use usec TCP timestamps where this patch makes even more sense : Many TCP flows have < 500 usec RTT. Hopefully this finer TS option can be standardized soon.

Following are the related reports from Apple: https://www.nanog.org/sites/default/files/Paasch_Network_Support.pdf Slide 31 identifies an issue where the client ACK to the server's data sent during a TFO'd handshake is dropped. C ---> syn-data ---> S C <--- syn/ack ----- S C (accept & write) C <---- data ------- S C ----- ACK -> X S [retry and timeout] https://www.ietf.org/proceedings/94/slides/slides-94-tcpm-13.pdf Slide 5 shows a similar situation that the server's data gets dropped after 3WHS. C ---- syn-data ---> S C <--- syn/ack ----- S C ---- ack --------> S S (accept & write) C? X <- data ------ S [retry and timeout] This is the worst failure b/c the client can not detect such behavior to mitigate the situation (such as disabling TFO). Failing to proceed, the application (e.g., SSL library) may simply timeout and retry with TFO again, and the process repeats indefinitely. The proposed solution is to disable active TFO globally under the following circumstances: 1. client side TFO socket detects out of order FIN 2. client side TFO socket receives out of order RST We disable active side TFO globally for 1hr at first. Then if it happens again, we disable it for 2h, then 4h, 8h, ... And we reset the timeout to 1hr if a client side TFO sockets not opened on loopback has successfully received data segs from server. And we examine this condition during close(). The rational behind it is that when such firewall issue happens, application running on the client should eventually close the socket as it is not able to get the data it is expecting. Or application running on the server should close the socket as it is not able to receive any response from client. In both cases, out of order FIN or RST will get received on the client given that the firewall will not block them as no data are in those frames. And we want to disable active TFO globally as it helps if the middle box is very close to the client and most of the connections are likely to fail. Also, add a debug sysctl: tcp_fastopen_blackhole_detect_timeout_sec: the initial timeout to use when firewall blackhole issue happens. This can be set and read. When setting it to 0, it means to disable the active disable logic.

These broken boxes modify and falsely raise the receive window on the ACKs. During a timeout induced recovery, F-RTO would send new data packets to probe if the timeout is false or not. Since the receive window is falsely raised, the receiver would silently drop these F-RTO packets. The recovery would take N (exponentially backoff) timeouts to repair N packet losses. A TCP performance killer. Due to this unfortunate situation, this patch removes this extension to revert F-RTO back to the RFC specification.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Markus Trippelsdorf reported that after commit dcb17d22e1c2 ("tcp: warn on bogus MSS and try to amend it") the kernel started logging the warning for a NIC driver that doesn't even support GRO. It was diagnosed that it was possibly caused on connections that were using TCP Timestamps but some packets lacked the Timestamps option. As we reduce rcv_mss when timestamps are used, the lack of them would cause the packets to be bigger than expected, although this is a valid case. As this warning is more as a hint, getting a clean-cut on the threshold is probably not worth the execution time spent on it. This patch thus alleviates the false-positives with 2 quick checks: by accounting for the entire TCP option space and also checking against the interface MTU if it's available. These changes, specially the MTU one, might mask some real positives, though if they are really happening, it's possible that sooner or later it will be triggered anyway.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 8a5bd45f6616 (tcp: randomize tcp timestamp offsets for each connection) randomizes TCP timestamps per connection. After this commit, there is no guarantee that the timestamps received from the same destination are monotonically increasing. As a result, the per-destination timestamp cache in TCP metrics (i.e., tcpm_ts in struct tcp_metrics_block) is broken and cannot be relied upon. Remove the per-destination timestamp cache and all related code paths. Note that this cache was already broken for caching timestamps of multiple machines behind a NAT sharing the same address.
