2013-06-13tcp: properly send new data in fast recovery in first RTTYuchung Cheng2-26/+20
Linux sends new unset data during disorder and recovery state if all (suspected) lost packets have been retransmitted ( RFC5681, section 3.2 step 1 & 2, RFC3517 section 4, NexSeg() Rule 2). One requirement is to keep the receive window about twice the estimated sender's congestion window (tcp_rcv_space_adjust()), assuming the fast retransmits repair the losses in the next round trip. But currently it's not the case on the first round trip in either normal or Fast Open connection, beucase the initial receive window is identical to (expected) sender's initial congestion window. The fix is to double it. Signed-off-by: Yuchung Cheng <ycheng@google.com> Acked-by: Neal Cardwell <ncardwell@google.com> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

commit 13d82bf5 (ipv4: Fix flushing of cached routing informations) added the support to flush learned pmtu information. However, using rt_genid is quite heavy as it is bumped on route add/change and multicast events amongst other places. These can happen quite often, especially if using dynamic routing protocols. While this is ok with routes (as they are just recreated locally), the pmtu information is learned from remote systems and the icmp notification can come with long delays. It is worthy to have separate genid to avoid excessive pmtu resets. Cc: Steffen Klassert <steffen.klassert@secunet.com> Signed-off-by: Timo Teräs <timo.teras@iki.fi> Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-05-30tcp: fix undo on partial ack in recoveryYuchung Cheng1-26/+33
Upon detecting spurious fast retransmit via timestamps during recovery, use PRR to clock out new data packet instead of retransmission. Once all retransmission are proven spurious, the sender then reverts the cwnd reduction and congestion state to open or disorder. The current code does the opposite: it undoes cwnd as soon as any retransmission is spurious and continues to retransmit until all data are acked. This nullifies the point to undo the cwnd because the sender is still retransmistting spuriously. This patch fixes it. The undo_ssthresh argument of tcp_undo_cwnd_reductiuon() is no longer needed and is removed.

This also multiplies the SNMP stat PARTIALUNDO events by the degree of the network reordering.

Unlike ipv4_redirect() and ipv4_sk_redirect(), ip_do_redirect() doesn't call __build_flow_key() directly but via ip_rt_build_flow_key() wrapper. This leads to __build_flow_key() getting pointer to IPv4 header of the ICMP redirect packet rather than pointer to the embedded IPv4 header of the packet initiating the redirect. As a result, handling of ICMP redirects initiated by TCP packets is broken. Issue was introduced by 4895c771c ("ipv4: Add FIB nexthop exceptions.")

2013-05-27MPLS: Add limited GSO supportSimon Horman3-1/+3
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. Based in part on "v4 GRE: Add TCP segmentation offload for GRE" by Pravin B Shelar.

We must clear IPCB in ip_tunnel_xmit() sooner in case dst_link_failure() is called. Or else skb->cb[] might contain garbage from GSO segmentation layer. A similar fix was tested on linux-3.9, but gre code was refactored in linux-3.10. I'll send patches for stable kernels as well. Many thanks to Daniel for providing reports, patches and testing !

2013-05-25net: ipv6: Add IPv6 support to the ping socket.Lorenzo Colitti2-162/+400
This adds the ability to send ICMPv6 echo requests without a raw socket. The equivalent ability for ICMPv4 was added in 2011. Instead of having separate code paths for IPv4 and IPv6, make most of the code in net/ipv4/ping.c dual-stack and only add a few IPv6-specific bits (like the protocol definition) to a new net/ipv6/ping.c. Hopefully this will reduce divergence and/or duplication of bugs in the future. Caveats: - Setting options via ancillary data (e.g., using IPV6_PKTINFO to specify the outgoing interface) is not yet supported. - There are no separate security settings for IPv4 and IPv6; everything is controlled by /proc/net/ipv4/ping_group_range. - The proc interface does not yet display IPv6 ping sockets properly. Tested with a patched copy of ping6 and using raw socket calls. Compiles and works with all of CONFIG_IPV6={n,m,y}. Signed-off-by: Lorenzo Colitti <lorenzo@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-05-23netfilter: ipt_ULOG: fix non-null terminated string in the nf_log pathChen Gang1-2/+4
If nf_log uses ipt_ULOG as logging output, we can deliver non-null terminated strings to user-space since the maximum length of the prefix that is passed by nf_log is NF_LOG_PREFIXLEN but pm->prefix is 32 bytes long (ULOG_PREFIX_LEN). This is actually happening already from nf_conntrack_tcp if ipt_ULOG is used, since it is passing strings longer than 32 bytes.
