2023-11-16tcp: use tp->total_rto to track number of linear timeouts in SYN_SENT stateEric Dumazet
In commit ccce324dabfe ("tcp: make the first N SYN RTO backoffs linear") David used icsk->icsk_backoff field to track the number of linear timeouts. Since then, tp->total_rto has been added. This commit uses tp->total_rto instead of icsk->icsk_backoff so that tcp_ld_RTO_revert() no longer can trigger an overflow in inet_csk_rto_backoff(). Other than the potential UBSAN report, there was no issue because receiving an ICMP message currently aborts the connect(). In the following patch, we want to adhere to RFC 6069 and RFC 1122 4.2.3.9.

2023-10-23tcp: add support for usec resolution in TCP TS valuesEric Dumazet
Back in 2015, Van Jacobson suggested to use usec resolution in TCP TS values. This has been implemented in our private kernels. Goals were : 1) better observability of delays in networking stacks. 2) better disambiguation of events based on TSval/ecr values. 3) building block for congestion control modules needing usec resolution. Back then we implemented a schem based on private SYN options to negotiate the feature. For upstream submission, we chose to use a route attribute, because this feature is probably going to be used in private networks [1] [2]. ip route add 10/8 ... features tcp_usec_ts Note that RFC 7323 recommends a "timestamp clock frequency in the range 1 ms to 1 sec per tick.", but also mentions "the maximum acceptable clock frequency is one tick every 59 ns." [1] Unfortunately RFC 7323 5.5 (Outdated Timestamps) suggests to invalidate TS.Recent values after a flow was idle for more than 24 days. This is the part making usec_ts a problem for peers following this recommendation for long living idle flows. [2] Attempts to standardize usec ts went nowhere: https://www.ietf.org/proceedings/97/slides/slides-97-tcpm-tcp-options-for-low-latency-00.pdf https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-wang-tcpm-low-latency-opt/ Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2023-09-16tcp: new TCP_INFO stats for RTO eventsAananth V
The 2023 SIGCOMM paper "Improving Network Availability with Protective ReRoute" has indicated Linux TCP's RTO-triggered txhash rehashing can effectively reduce application disruption during outages. To better measure the efficacy of this feature, this patch adds three more detailed stats during RTO recovery and exports via TCP_INFO. Applications and monitoring systems can leverage this data to measure the network path diversity and end-to-end repair latency during network outages to improve their network infrastructure. The following counters are added to tcp_sock in order to track RTO events over the lifetime of a TCP socket. 1. u16 total_rto - Counts the total number of RTO timeouts. 2. u16 total_rto_recoveries - Counts the total number of RTO recoveries. 3. u32 total_rto_time - Counts the total time spent (ms) in RTO recoveries. (time spent in CA_Loss and CA_Recovery states) To compute total_rto_time, we add a new u32 rto_stamp field to tcp_sock. rto_stamp records the start timestamp (ms) of the last RTO recovery (CA_Loss). Corresponding fields are also added to the tcp_info struct.

2023-08-15net: fix the RTO timer retransmitting skb every 1ms if linear option is enabledJason Xing
In the real workload, I encountered an issue which could cause the RTO timer to retransmit the skb per 1ms with linear option enabled. The amount of lost-retransmitted skbs can go up to 1000+ instantly. The root cause is that if the icsk_rto happens to be zero in the 6th round (which is the TCP_THIN_LINEAR_RETRIES value), then it will always be zero due to the changed calculation method in tcp_retransmit_timer() as follows: icsk->icsk_rto = min(icsk->icsk_rto << 1, TCP_RTO_MAX); Above line could be converted to icsk->icsk_rto = min(0 << 1, TCP_RTO_MAX) = 0 Therefore, the timer expires so quickly without any doubt. I read through the RFC 6298 and found that the RTO value can be rounded up to a certain value, in Linux, say TCP_RTO_MIN as default, which is regarded as the lower bound in this patch as suggested by Eric.

2023-08-13net: tcp: refactor the dbg message in tcp_retransmit_timer()Menglong Dong
The debug message in tcp_retransmit_timer() is slightly wrong, because they could be printed even if we did not receive a new ACK packet from the remote peer. Change it to probing zero-window, as it is a expected case now. The description may be not correct. Adding the duration since the last ACK we received, and the duration of the retransmission, which are useful for debugging. And the message now like this: Probing zero-window on 127.0.0.1:9999/46946, seq=3737778959:3737791503, recv 209ms ago, lasting 209ms Probing zero-window on 127.0.0.1:9999/46946, seq=3737778959:3737791503, recv 404ms ago, lasting 408ms Probing zero-window on 127.0.0.1:9999/46946, seq=3737778959:3737791503, recv 812ms ago, lasting 1224ms Signed-off-by: Menglong Dong <imagedong@tencent.com> Reviewed-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2023-08-13net: tcp: fix unexcepted socket die when snd_wnd is 0Menglong Dong
In tcp_retransmit_timer(), a window shrunk connection will be regarded as timeout if 'tcp_jiffies32 - tp->rcv_tstamp > TCP_RTO_MAX'. This is not right all the time. The retransmits will become zero-window probes in tcp_retransmit_timer() if the 'snd_wnd==0'. Therefore, the icsk->icsk_rto will come up to TCP_RTO_MAX sooner or later. However, the timer can be delayed and be triggered after 122877ms, not TCP_RTO_MAX, as I tested. Therefore, 'tcp_jiffies32 - tp->rcv_tstamp > TCP_RTO_MAX' is always true once the RTO come up to TCP_RTO_MAX, and the socket will die. Fix this by replacing the 'tcp_jiffies32' with '(u32)icsk->icsk_timeout', which is exact the timestamp of the timeout. However, "tp->rcv_tstamp" can restart from idle, then tp->rcv_tstamp could already be a long time (minutes or hours) in the past even on the first RTO. So we double check the timeout with the duration of the retransmission. Meanwhile, making "2 * TCP_RTO_MAX" as the timeout to avoid the socket dying too soon.

2023-06-01tcp: fix mishandling when the sack compression is deferred.fuyuanli
In this patch, we mainly try to handle sending a compressed ack correctly if it's deferred. Here are more details in the old logic: When sack compression is triggered in the tcp_compressed_ack_kick(), if the sock is owned by user, it will set TCP_DELACK_TIMER_DEFERRED and then defer to the release cb phrase. Later once user releases the sock, tcp_delack_timer_handler() should send a ack as expected, which, however, cannot happen due to lack of ICSK_ACK_TIMER flag. Therefore, the receiver would not sent an ack until the sender's retransmission timeout. It definitely increases unnecessary latency.

2023-05-11tcp: make the first N SYN RTO backoffs linearDavid Morley
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, ...

2022-06-10net: keep sk->sk_forward_alloc as small as possibleEric Dumazet
Currently, tcp_memory_allocated can hit tcp_mem[] limits quite fast. Each TCP socket can forward allocate up to 2 MB of memory, even after flow became less active. 10,000 sockets can have reserved 20 GB of memory, and we have no shrinker in place to reclaim that. Instead of trying to reclaim the extra allocations in some places, just keep sk->sk_forward_alloc values as small as possible. This should not impact performance too much now we have per-cpu reserves: Changes to tcp_memory_allocated should not be too frequent. For sockets not using SO_RESERVE_MEM: - idle sockets (no packets in tx/rx queues) have zero forward alloc. - non idle sockets have a forward alloc smaller than one page.

2021-01-18tcp: fix TCP_USER_TIMEOUT with zero windowEnke Chen
The TCP session does not terminate with TCP_USER_TIMEOUT when data remain untransmitted due to zero window. The number of unanswered zero-window probes (tcp_probes_out) is reset to zero with incoming acks irrespective of the window size, as described in tcp_probe_timer(): RFC 1122 4.2.2.17 requires the sender to stay open indefinitely as long as the receiver continues to respond probes. We support this by default and reset icsk_probes_out with incoming ACKs. This counter, however, is the wrong one to be used in calculating the duration that the window remains closed and data remain untransmitted. Thanks to Jonathan Maxwell <jmaxwell37@gmail.com> for diagnosing the actual issue.

In commit 86de5921a3d5 ("tcp: defer SACK compression after DupThresh") I added a TCP_FASTRETRANS_THRESH bias to tp->compressed_ack in order to enable sack compression only after 3 dupacks. Since we plan to relax this rule for flows that involve stacks not requiring this old rule, this patch adds a distinct tp->dup_ack_counter. This means the TCP_FASTRETRANS_THRESH value is now used in a single location that a future patch can adjust: if (tp->dup_ack_counter < TCP_FASTRETRANS_THRESH) { tp->dup_ack_counter++; goto send_now; } This patch also introduces tcp_sack_compress_send_ack() helper to ease following patch comprehension. This patch refines LINUX_MIB_TCPACKCOMPRESSED to not count the acks that we had to send if the timer expires or tcp_sack_compress_send_ack() is sending an ack.

2020-01-26tcp: export count for rehash attemptsAbdul Kabbani
Using IPv6 flow-label to swiftly route around avoid congested or disconnected network path can greatly improve TCP reliability. This patch adds SNMP counters and a OPT_STATS counter to track both host-level and connection-level statistics. Network administrators can use these counters to evaluate the impact of this new ability better. Export count for rehash attempts to 1) two SNMP counters: TcpTimeoutRehash (rehash due to timeouts), and TcpDuplicateDataRehash (rehash due to receiving duplicate packets) 2) Timestamping API SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_STATS.

2019-10-13tcp: add rcu protection around tp->fastopen_rskEric Dumazet
Both tcp_v4_err() and tcp_v6_err() do the following operations while they do not own the socket lock : fastopen = tp->fastopen_rsk; snd_una = fastopen ? tcp_rsk(fastopen)->snt_isn : tp->snd_una; The problem is that without appropriate barrier, the compiler might reload tp->fastopen_rsk and trigger a NULL deref. request sockets are protected by RCU, we can simply add the missing annotations and barriers to solve the issue.

2019-10-01tcp: adjust rto_base in retransmits_timed_out()Eric Dumazet
The cited commit exposed an old retransmits_timed_out() bug which assumed it could call tcp_model_timeout() with TCP_RTO_MIN as rto_base for all states. But flows in SYN_SENT or SYN_RECV state uses a different RTO base (1 sec instead of 200 ms, unless BPF choses another value) This caused a reduction of SYN retransmits from 6 to 4 with the default /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_syn_retries value.

2019-09-27tcp: better handle TCP_USER_TIMEOUT in SYN_SENT stateEric Dumazet
Yuchung Cheng and Marek Majkowski independently reported a weird behavior of TCP_USER_TIMEOUT option when used at connect() time. When the TCP_USER_TIMEOUT is reached, tcp_write_timeout() believes the flow should live, and the following condition in tcp_clamp_rto_to_user_timeout() programs one jiffie timers : remaining = icsk->icsk_user_timeout - elapsed; if (remaining <= 0) return 1; /* user timeout has passed; fire ASAP */ This silly situation ends when the max syn rtx count is reached. This patch makes sure we honor both TCP_SYNCNT and TCP_USER_TIMEOUT, avoiding these spurious SYN packets.

2019-08-09tcp: add new tcp_mtu_probe_floor sysctlJosh Hunt
The current implementation of TCP MTU probing can considerably underestimate the MTU on lossy connections allowing the MSS to get down to 48. We have found that in almost all of these cases on our networks these paths can handle much larger MTUs meaning the connections are being artificially limited. Even though TCP MTU probing can raise the MSS back up we have seen this not to be the case causing connections to be "stuck" with an MSS of 48 when heavy loss is present. Prior to pushing out this change we could not keep TCP MTU probing enabled b/c of the above reasons. Now with a reasonble floor set we've had it enabled for the past 6 months. The new sysctl will still default to TCP_MIN_SND_MSS (48), but gives administrators the ability to control the floor of MSS probing.

2019-05-01tcp: lower congestion window on Fast Open SYNACK timeoutYuchung Cheng
TCP sender would use congestion window of 1 packet on the second SYN and SYNACK timeout except passive TCP Fast Open. This makes passive TFO too aggressive and unfair during congestion at handshake. This patch fixes this issue so TCP (fast open or not, passive or active) always conforms to the RFC6298. Note that tcp_enter_loss() is called only once during recurring timeouts. This is because during handshake, high_seq and snd_una are the same so tcp_enter_loss() would incorrect set the undo state variables multiple times.

2019-01-27tcp: Refactor pingpong codeWei Wang
Instead of using pingpong as a single bit information, we refactor the code to treat it as a counter. When interactive session is detected, we set pingpong count to TCP_PINGPONG_THRESH. And when pingpong count is >= TCP_PINGPONG_THRESH, we consider the session in pingpong mode. This patch is a pure refactor and sets foundation for the next patch. This patch itself does not change any pingpong logic.

2019-01-17tcp: retry more conservatively on local congestionYuchung Cheng
Previously when the sender fails to retransmit a data packet on timeout due to congestion in the local host (e.g. throttling in qdisc), it'll retry within an RTO up to 500ms. In low-RTT networks such as data-centers, RTO is often far below the default minimum 200ms (and the cap 500ms). Then local host congestion could trigger a retry storm pouring gas to the fire. Worse yet, the retry counter (icsk_retransmits) is not properly updated so the aggressive retry may exceed the system limit (15 rounds) until the packet finally slips through. On such rare events, it's wise to retry more conservatively (500ms) and update the stats properly to reflect these incidents and follow the system limit. Note that this is consistent with the behavior when a keep-alive probe is dropped due to local congestion.

2019-01-17tcp: simplify window probe aborting on USER_TIMEOUTYuchung Cheng
Previously we use the next unsent skb's timestamp to determine when to abort a socket stalling on window probes. This no longer works as skb timestamp reflects the last instead of the first transmission. Instead we can estimate how long the socket has been stalling with the probe count and the exponential backoff behavior.
