git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-next John W. Linville says: ==================== pull request: wireless-next 2014-10-03 Please pull tihs batch of updates intended for the 3.18 stream! For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says: "I have here a few things that depend on the latest mac80211's changes: RRM, TPC, Quiet Period etc... Eyal keeps improving our rate control and we have a new device ID. This last patch should probably have gone to wireless.git, but at that stage, I preferred to send it to -next and CC stable." For (most of) the Atheros bits, Kalle says: "The only new feature is testmode support from me. Ben added a new method to crash the firmware with an assert for debug purposes. As usual, we have lots of smaller fixes from Michal. Matteo fixed a Kconfig dependency with debugfs. I fixed some warnings recently added to checkpatch." For the NFC bits, Samuel says: "We've had major updates for TI and ST Microelectronics drivers, and a few NCI related changes. For TI's trf7970a driver: - Target mode support for trf7970a - Suspend/resume support for trf7970a - DT properties additions to handle different quirks - A bunch of fixes for smartphone IOP related issues For ST Microelectronics' ST21NFCA and ST21NFCB drivers: - ISO15693 support for st21nfcb - checkpatch and sparse related warning fixes - Code cleanups and a few minor fixes Finally, Marvell added ISO15693 support to the NCI stack, together with a couple of NCI fixes." For the Bluetooth bits, Johan says: "This 3.18 pull request replaces the one I did on Monday ("bluetooth-next 2014-09-22", which hasn't been pulled yet). The additions since the last request are: - SCO connection fix for devices not supporting eSCO - Cleanups regarding the SCO establishment logic - Remove unnecessary return value from logging functions - Header compression fix for 6lowpan - Cleanups to the ieee802154/mrf24j40 driver Here's a copy from previous request that this one replaces: ' Here are some more patches for 3.18. They include various fixes to the btusb HCI driver, a fix for LE SMP, as well as adding Jukka to the MAINTAINERS file for generic 6LoWPAN (as requested by Alexander Aring). I've held on to this pull request a bit since we were waiting for a SCO related fix to get sorted out first. However, since the merge window is getting closer I decided not to wait for it. If we do get the fix sorted out there'll probably be a second small pull request later this week. '" And, "Unless 3.17 gets delayed this will probably be our last -next pull request for 3.18. We've got: - New Marvell hardware supportr - Multicast support for 6lowpan - Several of 6lowpan fixes & cleanups - Fix for a (false-positive) lockdep warning in L2CAP - Minor btusb cleanup" On top of all that comes the usual sort of updates to ath5k, ath9k, ath10k, brcmfmac, mwifiex, and wil6210. This time around there are also a number of rtlwifi updates to enable some new hardware and to reconcile the in-kernel drivers with some newer releases of the Realtek vendor drivers. Also of note is some device tree work for the bcma bus. Please let me know if there are problems! ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2014-09-29net: tcp: add DCTCP congestion control algorithmDaniel Borkmann1-0/+43
This work adds the DataCenter TCP (DCTCP) congestion control algorithm [1], which has been first published at SIGCOMM 2010 [2], resp. follow-up analysis at SIGMETRICS 2011 [3] (and also, more recently as an informational IETF draft available at [4]). DCTCP is an enhancement to the TCP congestion control algorithm for data center networks. Typical data center workloads are i.e. i) partition/aggregate (queries; bursty, delay sensitive), ii) short messages e.g. 50KB-1MB (for coordination and control state; delay sensitive), and iii) large flows e.g. 1MB-100MB (data update; throughput sensitive). DCTCP has therefore been designed for such environments to provide/achieve the following three requirements: * High burst tolerance (incast due to partition/aggregate) * Low latency (short flows, queries) * High throughput (continuous data updates, large file transfers) with commodity, shallow buffered switches The basic idea of its design consists of two fundamentals: i) on the switch side, packets are being marked when its internal queue length > threshold K (K is chosen so that a large enough headroom for marked traffic is still available in the switch queue); ii) the sender/host side maintains a moving average of the fraction of marked packets, so each RTT, F is being updated as follows: F := X / Y, where X is # of marked ACKs, Y is total # of ACKs alpha := (1 - g) * alpha + g * F, where g is a smoothing constant The resulting alpha (iow: probability that switch queue is congested) is then being used in order to adaptively decrease the congestion window W: W := (1 - (alpha / 2)) * W The means for receiving marked packets resp. marking them on switch side in DCTCP is the use of ECN. RFC3168 describes a mechanism for using Explicit Congestion Notification from the switch for early detection of congestion, rather than waiting for segment loss to occur. However, this method only detects the presence of congestion, not the *extent*. In the presence of mild congestion, it reduces the TCP congestion window too aggressively and unnecessarily affects the throughput of long flows [4]. DCTCP, as mentioned, enhances Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN) processing to estimate the fraction of bytes that encounter congestion, rather than simply detecting that some congestion has occurred. DCTCP then scales the TCP congestion window based on this estimate [4], thus it can derive multibit feedback from the information present in the single-bit sequence of marks in its control law. And thus act in *proportion* to the extent of congestion, not its *presence*. Switches therefore set the Congestion Experienced (CE) codepoint in packets when internal queue lengths exceed threshold K. Resulting, DCTCP delivers the same or better throughput than normal TCP, while using 90% less buffer space. It was found in [2] that DCTCP enables the applications to handle 10x the current background traffic, without impacting foreground traffic. Moreover, a 10x increase in foreground traffic did not cause any timeouts, and thus largely eliminates TCP incast collapse problems. The algorithm itself has already seen deployments in large production data centers since then. We did a long-term stress-test and analysis in a data center, short summary of our TCP incast tests with iperf compared to cubic: This test measured DCTCP throughput and latency and compared it with CUBIC throughput and latency for an incast scenario. In this test, 19 senders sent at maximum rate to a single receiver. The receiver simply ran iperf -s. The senders ran iperf -c <receiver> -t 30. All senders started simultaneously (using local clocks synchronized by ntp). This test was repeated multiple times. Below shows the results from a single test. Other tests are similar. (DCTCP results were extremely consistent, CUBIC results show some variance induced by the TCP timeouts that CUBIC encountered.) For this test, we report statistics on the number of TCP timeouts, flow throughput, and traffic latency. 1) Timeouts (total over all flows, and per flow summaries): CUBIC DCTCP Total 3227 25 Mean 169.842 1.316 Median 183 1 Max 207 5 Min 123 0 Stddev 28.991 1.600 Timeout data is taken by measuring the net change in netstat -s "other TCP timeouts" reported. As a result, the timeout measurements above are not restricted to the test traffic, and we believe that it is likely that all of the "DCTCP timeouts" are actually timeouts for non-test traffic. We report them nevertheless. CUBIC will also include some non-test timeouts, but they are drawfed by bona fide test traffic timeouts for CUBIC. Clearly DCTCP does an excellent job of preventing TCP timeouts. DCTCP reduces timeouts by at least two orders of magnitude and may well have eliminated them in this scenario. 2) Throughput (per flow in Mbps): CUBIC DCTCP Mean 521.684 521.895 Median 464 523 Max 776 527 Min 403 519 Stddev 105.891 2.601 Fairness 0.962 0.999 Throughput data was simply the average throughput for each flow reported by iperf. By avoiding TCP timeouts, DCTCP is able to achieve much better per-flow results. In CUBIC, many flows experience TCP timeouts which makes flow throughput unpredictable and unfair. DCTCP, on the other hand, provides very clean predictable throughput without incurring TCP timeouts. Thus, the standard deviation of CUBIC throughput is dramatically higher than the standard deviation of DCTCP throughput. Mean throughput is nearly identical because even though cubic flows suffer TCP timeouts, other flows will step in and fill the unused bandwidth. Note that this test is something of a best case scenario for incast under CUBIC: it allows other flows to fill in for flows experiencing a timeout. Under situations where the receiver is issuing requests and then waiting for all flows to complete, flows cannot fill in for timed out flows and throughput will drop dramatically. 3) Latency (in ms): CUBIC DCTCP Mean 4.0088 0.04219 Median 4.055 0.0395 Max 4.2 0.085 Min 3.32 0.028 Stddev 0.1666 0.01064 Latency for each protocol was computed by running "ping -i 0.2 <receiver>" from a single sender to the receiver during the incast test. For DCTCP, "ping -Q 0x6 -i 0.2 <receiver>" was used to ensure that traffic traversed the DCTCP queue and was not dropped when the queue size was greater than the marking threshold. The summary statistics above are over all ping metrics measured between the single sender, receiver pair. The latency results for this test show a dramatic difference between CUBIC and DCTCP. CUBIC intentionally overflows the switch buffer which incurs the maximum queue latency (more buffer memory will lead to high latency.) DCTCP, on the other hand, deliberately attempts to keep queue occupancy low. The result is a two orders of magnitude reduction of latency with DCTCP - even with a switch with relatively little RAM. Switches with larger amounts of RAM will incur increasing amounts of latency for CUBIC, but not for DCTCP. 4) Convergence and stability test: This test measured the time that DCTCP took to fairly redistribute bandwidth when a new flow commences. It also measured DCTCP's ability to remain stable at a fair bandwidth distribution. DCTCP is compared with CUBIC for this test. At the commencement of this test, a single flow is sending at maximum rate (near 10 Gbps) to a single receiver. One second after that first flow commences, a new flow from a distinct server begins sending to the same receiver as the first flow. After the second flow has sent data for 10 seconds, the second flow is terminated. The first flow sends for an additional second. Ideally, the bandwidth would be evenly shared as soon as the second flow starts, and recover as soon as it stops. The results of this test are shown below. Note that the flow bandwidth for the two flows was measured near the same time, but not simultaneously. DCTCP performs nearly perfectly within the measurement limitations of this test: bandwidth is quickly distributed fairly between the two flows, remains stable throughout the duration of the test, and recovers quickly. CUBIC, in contrast, is slow to divide the bandwidth fairly, and has trouble remaining stable.

The test was repeated five times for each number of competing flows. Competing Flows 1 | 2 | 4 | 8 | 16 ------------------------------ Mean Connection Probability 1 | 0.67 | 0.45 | 0.28 | 0 Median Connection Probability 1 | 0.65 | 0.45 | 0.25 | 0 As the number of competing flows moves beyond 1, the connection probability drops rapidly. Enabling DCTCP with this patch requires the following steps: DCTCP must be running both on the sender and receiver side in your data center, i.e.: sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_congestion_control=dctcp Also, ECN functionality must be enabled on all switches in your data center for DCTCP to work. The default ECN marking threshold (K) heuristic on the switch for DCTCP is e.g., 20 packets (30KB) at 1Gbps, and 65 packets (~100KB) at 10Gbps (K > 1/7 * C * RTT, [4]). In above tests, for each switch port, traffic was segregated into two queues. For any packet with a DSCP of 0x01 - or equivalently a TOS of 0x04 - the packet was placed into the DCTCP queue. All other packets were placed into the default drop-tail queue. For the DCTCP queue, RED/ECN marking was enabled, here, with a marking threshold of 75 KB. More details however, we refer you to the paper [2] under section 3). There are no code changes required to applications running in user space. DCTCP has been implemented in full *isolation* of the rest of the TCP code as its own congestion control module, so that it can run without a need to expose code to the core of the TCP stack, and thus nothing changes for non-DCTCP users. Changes in the CA framework code are minimal, and DCTCP algorithm operates on mechanisms that are already available in most Silicon. The gain (dctcp_shift_g) is currently a fixed constant (1/16) from the paper, but we leave the option that it can be chosen carefully to a different value by the user. In case DCTCP is being used and ECN support on peer site is off, DCTCP falls back after 3WHS to operate in normal TCP Reno mode. ss {-4,-6} -t -i diag interface: ... dctcp wscale:7,7 rto:203 rtt:2.349/0.026 mss:1448 cwnd:2054 ssthresh:1102 ce_state 0 alpha 15 ab_ecn 0 ab_tot 735584 send 10129.2Mbps pacing_rate 20254.1Mbps unacked:1822 retrans:0/15 reordering:101 rcv_space:29200 ... dctcp-reno wscale:7,7 rto:201 rtt:0.711/1.327 ato:40 mss:1448 cwnd:10 ssthresh:1102 fallback_mode send 162.9Mbps pacing_rate 325.5Mbps rcv_rtt:1.5 rcv_space:29200 More information about DCTCP can be found in [1-4].

2014-09-24cpuset: PF_SPREAD_PAGE and PF_SPREAD_SLAB should be atomic flagsZefan Li1-3/+3
When we change cpuset.memory_spread_{page,slab}, cpuset will flip PF_SPREAD_{PAGE,SLAB} bit of tsk->flags for each task in that cpuset. This should be done using atomic bitops, but currently we don't, which is broken.

2014-09-23icmp: add a global rate limitationEric Dumazet1-0/+13
Current ICMP rate limiting uses inetpeer cache, which is an RBL tree protected by a lock, meaning that hosts can be stuck hard if all cpus want to check ICMP limits. When say a DNS or NTP server process is restarted, inetpeer tree grows quick and machine comes to its knees. iptables can not help because the bottleneck happens before ICMP messages are even cooked and sent. This patch adds a new global limitation, using a token bucket filter, controlled by two new sysctl : icmp_msgs_per_sec - INTEGER Limit maximal number of ICMP packets sent per second from this host. Only messages whose type matches icmp_ratemask are controlled by this limit. Default: 1000 icmp_msgs_burst - INTEGER icmp_msgs_per_sec controls number of ICMP packets sent per second, while icmp_msgs_burst controls the burst size of these packets. Default: 50 Note that if we really want to send millions of ICMP messages per second, we might extend idea and infra added in commit 04ca6973f7c1a ("ip: make IP identifiers less predictable") : add a token bucket in the ip_idents hash and no longer rely on inetpeer.

Pull networking fixes from David Miller: 1) If the user gives us a msg_namelen of 0, don't try to interpret anything pointed to by msg_name. From Ani Sinha. 2) Fix some bnx2i/bnx2fc randconfig compilation errors. The gist of the issue is that we firstly have drivers that span both SCSI and networking. And at the top of that chain of dependencies we have things like SCSI_FC_ATTRS and SCSI_NETLINK which are selected. But since select is a sledgehammer and ignores dependencies, everything to select's SCSI_FC_ATTRS and/or SCSI_NETLINK has to also explicitly select their dependencies and so on and so forth. Generally speaking 'select' is supposed to only be used for child nodes, those which have no dependencies of their own. And this whole chain of dependencies in the scsi layer violates that rather strongly. So just make SCSI_NETLINK depend upon it's dependencies, and so on and so forth for the things selecting it (either directly or indirectly). From Anish Bhatt and Randy Dunlap. 3) Fix generation of blackhole routes in IPSEC, from Steffen Klassert. 4) Actually notice netdev feature changes in rtl_open() code, from Hayes Wang. 5) Fix divide by zero in bond enslaving, from Nikolay Aleksandrov. 6) Missing memory barrier in sunvnet driver, from David Stevens. 7) Don't leave anycast addresses around when ipv6 interface is destroyed, from Sabrina Dubroca. 8) Don't call efx_{arch}_filter_sync_rx_mode before addr_list_lock is initialized in SFC driver, from Edward Cree. 9) Fix missing DMA error checking in 3c59x, from Neal Horman. 10) Openvswitch doesn't emit OVS_FLOW_CMD_NEW notifications accidently, fix from Samuel Gauthier. 11) pch_gbe needs to select NET_PTP_CLASSIFY otherwise we can get a build error. 12) Fix macvlan regression wherein we stopped emitting broadcast/multicast frames over software devices. From Nicolas Dichtel. 13) Fix infiniband bug due to unintended overflow of skb->cb[], from Eric Dumazet. And add an assertion so this doesn't happen again. 14) dm9000_parse_dt() should return error pointers, not NULL.

2014-09-09net: filter: add "load 64-bit immediate" eBPF instructionAlexei Starovoitov1-1/+7
add BPF_LD_IMM64 instruction to load 64-bit immediate value into a register. All previous instructions were 8-byte. This is first 16-byte instruction. Two consecutive 'struct bpf_insn' blocks are interpreted as single instruction: insn[0].code = BPF_LD | BPF_DW | BPF_IMM insn[0].dst_reg = destination register insn[0].imm = lower 32-bit insn[1].code = 0 insn[1].imm = upper 32-bit All unused fields must be zero. Classic BPF has similar instruction: BPF_LD | BPF_W | BPF_IMM which loads 32-bit immediate value into a register. x64 JITs it as single 'movabsq %rax, imm64' arm64 may JIT as sequence of four 'movk x0, #imm16, lsl #shift' insn Note that old eBPF programs are binary compatible with new interpreter. It helps eBPF programs load 64-bit constant into a register with one instruction instead of using two registers and 4 instructions: BPF_MOV32_IMM(R1, imm32) BPF_ALU64_IMM(BPF_LSH, R1, 32) BPF_MOV32_IMM(R2, imm32) BPF_ALU64_REG(BPF_OR, R1, R2) User space generated programs will use this instruction to load constants only. To tell kernel that user space needs a pointer the _pseudo_ variant of this instruction may be added later, which will use extra bits of encoding to indicate what type of pointer user space is asking kernel to provide. For example 'off' or 'src_reg' fields can be used for such purpose. src_reg = 1 could mean that user space is asking kernel to validate and load in-kernel map pointer. src_reg = 2 could mean that user space needs readonly data section pointer src_reg = 3 could mean that user space needs a pointer to per-cpu local data All such future pseudo instructions will not be carrying the actual pointer as part of the instruction, but rather will be treated as a request to kernel to provide one. The kernel will verify the request_for_a_pointer, then will drop _pseudo_ marking and will store actual internal pointer inside the instruction, so the end result is the interpreter and JITs never see pseudo BPF_LD_IMM64 insns and only operate on generic BPF_LD_IMM64 that loads 64-bit immediate into a register. User space never operates on direct pointers and verifier can easily recognize request_for_pointer vs other instructions. Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@plumgrid.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
