2016-07-11sctp: implement prsctp PRIO policyXin Long
prsctp PRIO policy is a policy to abandon lower priority chunks when asoc doesn't have enough snd buffer, so that the current chunk with higher priority can be queued successfully. Similar to TTL/RTX policy, we will set the priority of the chunk to prsctp_param with sinfo->sinfo_timetolive in sctp_set_prsctp_policy(). So if PRIO policy is enabled, msg->expire_at won't work. asoc->sent_cnt_removable will record how many chunks can be checked to remove. If priority policy is enabled, when the chunk is queued into the out_queue, we will increase sent_cnt_removable. When the chunk is moved to abandon_queue or dequeue and free, we will decrease sent_cnt_removable. In sctp_sendmsg, we will check if there is enough snd buffer for current msg and if sent_cnt_removable is not 0. Then try to abandon chunks in sctp_prune_prsctp when sendmsg from the retransmit/transmited queue, and free chunks from out_queue in right order until the abandon+free size > msg_len - sctp_wfree. For the abandon size, we have to wait until it sends FORWARD TSN, receives the sack and the chunks are really freed. Signed-off-by: Xin Long <lucien.xin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2016-04-10sctp: avoid refreshing heartbeat timer too oftenMarcelo Ricardo Leitner
Currently on high rate SCTP streams the heartbeat timer refresh can consume quite a lot of resources as timer updates are costly and it contains a random factor, which a) is also costly and b) invalidates mod_timer() optimization for not editing a timer to the same value. It may even cause the timer to be slightly advanced, for no good reason. As suggested by David Laight this patch now removes this timer update from hot path by leaving the timer on and re-evaluating upon its expiration if the heartbeat is still needed or not, similarly to what is done for TCP. If it's not needed anymore the timer is re-scheduled to the new timeout, considering the time already elapsed. For this, we now record the last tx timestamp per transport, updated in the same spots as hb timer was restarted on tx. Also split up sctp_transport_reset_timers into sctp_transport_reset_t3_rtx and sctp_transport_reset_hb_timer, so we can re-arm T3 without re-arming the heartbeat one. On loopback with MTU of 65535 and data chunks with 1636, so that we have a considerable amount of chunks without stressing system calls, netperf -t SCTP_STREAM -l 30, perf looked like this before: Samples: 103K of event 'cpu-clock', Event count (approx.): 25833000000 Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol + 6,15% netperf [kernel.vmlinux] [k] copy_user_enhanced_fast_string - 5,43% netperf [kernel.vmlinux] [k] _raw_write_unlock_irqrestore - _raw_write_unlock_irqrestore - 96,54% _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore - 36,14% mod_timer + 97,24% sctp_transport_reset_timers + 2,76% sctp_do_sm + 33,65% __wake_up_sync_key + 28,77% sctp_ulpq_tail_event + 1,40% del_timer - 1,84% mod_timer + 99,03% sctp_transport_reset_timers + 0,97% sctp_do_sm + 1,50% sctp_ulpq_tail_event And after this patch, now with netperf -l 60: Samples: 230K of event 'cpu-clock', Event count (approx.): 57707250000 Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol + 5,65% netperf [kernel.vmlinux] [k] memcpy_erms + 5,59% netperf [kernel.vmlinux] [k] copy_user_enhanced_fast_string - 5,05% netperf [kernel.vmlinux] [k] _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore - _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore + 49,89% __wake_up_sync_key + 45,68% sctp_ulpq_tail_event - 2,85% mod_timer + 76,51% sctp_transport_reset_t3_rtx + 23,49% sctp_do_sm + 1,55% del_timer + 2,50% netperf [sctp] [k] sctp_datamsg_from_user + 2,26% netperf [sctp] [k] sctp_sendmsg Throughput-wise, from 6800mbps without the patch to 7050mbps with it, ~3.7%.

2016-03-20sctp: do not leak chunks that are sent to unconfirmed pathsMarcelo Ricardo Leitner
Currently, if a chunk is scheduled to be sent through a transport that is currently unconfirmed, it will be leaked as it is dequeued from outq and is not re-queued nor freed. As I'm not aware of any situation that may lead to this situation, I'm fixing this by freeing the chunk and also logging a trace so that we can fix the other bug if it ever happens.

2016-03-13sctp: allow sctp_transmit_packet and others to use gfpMarcelo Ricardo Leitner
Currently sctp_sendmsg() triggers some calls that will allocate memory with GFP_ATOMIC even when not necessary. In the case of sctp_packet_transmit it will allocate a linear skb that will be used to construct the packet and this may cause sends to fail due to ENOMEM more often than anticipated specially with big MTUs. This patch thus allows it to inherit gfp flags from upper calls so that it can use GFP_KERNEL if it was triggered by a sctp_sendmsg call or similar. All others, like retransmits or flushes started from BH, are still allocated using GFP_ATOMIC. In netperf tests this didn't result in any performance drawbacks when memory is not too fragmented and made it trigger ENOMEM way less often.

2015-12-06sctp: start t5 timer only when peer rwnd is 0 and local state is ↵lucien
SHUTDOWN_PENDING when A sends a data to B, then A close() and enter into SHUTDOWN_PENDING state, if B neither claim his rwnd is 0 nor send SACK for this data, A will keep retransmitting this data until t5 timeout, Max.Retrans times can't work anymore, which is bad. if B's rwnd is not 0, it should send abort after Max.Retrans times, only when B's rwnd == 0 and A's retransmitting beyonds Max.Retrans times, A will start t5 timer, which is also commit f8d960524328 ("sctp: Enforce retransmission limit during shutdown") means, but it lacks the condition peer rwnd == 0. so fix it by adding a bit (zero_window_announced) in peer to record if the last rwnd is 0. If it was, zero_window_announced will be set. and use this bit to decide if start t5 timer when local.state is SHUTDOWN_PENDING.

2015-12-06sctp: hold the chunks only after the chunk is enqueued in outqlucien
When a msg is sent, sctp will hold the chunks of this msg and then try to enqueue them. But if the chunks are not enqueued in sctp_outq_tail() because of the invalid state, sctp_cmd_interpreter() may still return success to sctp_sendmsg() after calling sctp_outq_flush(), these chunks will become orphans and will leak. So we fix them by moving sctp_chunk_hold() to sctp_outq_tail(), where we are sure that the chunk is going to get queued.

2014-01-02sctp: Remove outqueue empty stateVlad Yasevich
The SCTP outqueue structure maintains a data chunks that are pending transmission, the list of chunks that are pending a retransmission and a length of data in flight. It also tries to keep the emtpy state so that it can performe shutdown sequence or notify user. The problem is that the empy state is inconsistently tracked. It is possible to completely drain the queue without sending anything when using PR-SCTP. In this case, the empty state will not be correctly state as report by Jamal Hadi Salim <jhs@mojatatu.com>. This can cause an association to be perminantly stuck in the SHUTDOWN_PENDING state. Additionally, SCTP is incredibly inefficient when setting the empty state. Even though all the data is availaible in the outqueue structure, we ignore it and walk a list of trasnports. In the end, we can completely remove the extra empty state and figure out if the queue is empty by looking at 3 things: length of pending data, length of in-flight data, and exisiting of retransmit data. All of these are already in the strucutre.

2013-07-09net: sctp: confirm route during forward progressDaniel Borkmann
This fix has been proposed originally by Vlad Yasevich. He says: When SCTP makes forward progress (receives a SACK that acks new chunks, renegs, or answeres 0-window probes) or when HB-ACK arrives, mark the route as confirmed so we don't unnecessarily send NUD probes. Having a simple SCTP client/server that exchange data chunks every 1sec, without this patch ARP requests are sent periodically every 40-60sec. With this fix applied, an ARP request is only done once right at the "session" beginning. Also, when clearing the related ARP cache entry manually during the session, a new request is correctly done. I have only "backported" this to net-next and tested that it works, so full credit goes to Vlad.

2013-07-01net: sctp: rework debugging framework to use pr_debug and friendsDaniel Borkmann
We should get rid of all own SCTP debug printk macros and use the ones that the kernel offers anyway instead. This makes the code more readable and conform to the kernel code, and offers all the features of dynamic debbuging that pr_debug() et al has, such as only turning on/off portions of debug messages at runtime through debugfs. The runtime cost of having CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG enabled, but none of the debug statements printing, is negligible [1]. If kernel debugging is completly turned off, then these statements will also compile into "empty" functions. While we're at it, we also need to change the Kconfig option as it /now/ only refers to the ifdef'ed code portions in outqueue.c that enable further debugging/tracing of SCTP transaction fields. Also, since SCTP_ASSERT code was enabled with this Kconfig option and has now been removed, we transform those code parts into WARNs resp. where appropriate BUG_ONs so that those bugs can be more easily detected as probably not many people have SCTP debugging permanently turned on. To turn on all SCTP debugging, the following steps are needed: # mount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug # echo -n 'module sctp +p' > /sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control This can be done more fine-grained on a per file, per line basis and others as described in [2].

2013-06-13sctp: fully initialize sctp_outq in sctp_outq_initNeil Horman
In commit 2f94aabd9f6c925d77aecb3ff020f1cc12ed8f86 (refactor sctp_outq_teardown to insure proper re-initalization) we modified sctp_outq_teardown to use sctp_outq_init to fully re-initalize the outq structure. Steve West recently asked me why I removed the q->error = 0 initalization from sctp_outq_teardown. I did so because I was operating under the impression that sctp_outq_init would properly initalize that value for us, but it doesn't. sctp_outq_init operates under the assumption that the outq struct is all 0's (as it is when called from sctp_association_init), but using it in __sctp_outq_teardown violates that assumption. We should do a memset in sctp_outq_init to ensure that the entire structure is in a known state there instead.

2012-10-04sctp: check src addr when processing SACK to update transport stateNicolas Dichtel
Suppose we have an SCTP connection with two paths. After connection is established, path1 is not available, thus this path is marked as inactive. Then traffic goes through path2, but for some reasons packets are delayed (after rto.max). Because packets are delayed, the retransmit mechanism will switch again to path1. At this time, we receive a delayed SACK from path2. When we update the state of the path in sctp_check_transmitted(), we do not take into account the source address of the SACK, hence we update the wrong path.

2012-07-22sctp: Implement quick failover draft from tsvwgNeil Horman
I've seen several attempts recently made to do quick failover of sctp transports by reducing various retransmit timers and counters. While its possible to implement a faster failover on multihomed sctp associations, its not particularly robust, in that it can lead to unneeded retransmits, as well as false connection failures due to intermittent latency on a network. Instead, lets implement the new ietf quick failover draft found here: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-nishida-tsvwg-sctp-failover-05 This will let the sctp stack identify transports that have had a small number of errors, and avoid using them quickly until their reliability can be re-established. I've tested this out on two virt guests connected via multiple isolated virt networks and believe its in compliance with the above draft and works well.

2011-12-20sctp: Do not account for sizeof(struct sk_buff) in estimated rwndThomas Graf
When checking whether a DATA chunk fits into the estimated rwnd a full sizeof(struct sk_buff) is added to the needed chunk size. This quickly exhausts the available rwnd space and leads to packets being sent which are much below the PMTU limit. This can lead to much worse performance. The reason for this behaviour was to avoid putting too much memory pressure on the receiver. The concept is not completely irational because a Linux receiver does in fact clone an skb for each DATA chunk delivered. However, Linux also reserves half the available socket buffer space for data structures therefore usage of it is already accounted for. When proposing to change this the last time it was noted that this behaviour was introduced to solve a performance issue caused by rwnd overusage in combination with small DATA chunks. Trying to reproduce this I found that with the sk_buff overhead removed, the performance would improve significantly unless socket buffer limits are increased. The following numbers have been gathered using a patched iperf supporting SCTP over a live 1 Gbit ethernet network. The -l option was used to limit DATA chunk sizes. The numbers listed are based on the average of 3 test runs each. Default values have been used for sk_(r|w)mem.

When initiating a graceful shutdown while having data chunks on the retransmission queue with a peer which is in zero window mode the shutdown is never completed because the retransmission error count is reset periodically by the following two rules: - Do not timeout association while doing zero window probe. - Reset overall error count when a heartbeat request has been acknowledged. The graceful shutdown will wait for all outstanding TSN to be acknowledged before sending the SHUTDOWN request. This never happens due to the peer's zero window not acknowledging the continuously retransmitted data chunks. Although the error counter is incremented for each failed retransmission, the receiving of the SACK announcing the zero window clears the error count again immediately. Also heartbeat requests continue to be sent periodically. The peer acknowledges these requests causing the error counter to be reset as well. This patch changes behaviour to only reset the overall error counter for the above rules while not in shutdown. After reaching the maximum number of retransmission attempts, the T5 shutdown guard timer is scheduled to give the receiver some additional time to recover. The timer is stopped as soon as the receiver acknowledges any data. The issue can be easily reproduced by establishing a sctp association over the loopback device, constantly queueing data at the sender while not reading any at the receiver. Wait for the window to reach zero, then initiate a shutdown by killing both processes simultaneously. The association will never be freed and the chunks on the retransmission queue will be retransmitted indefinitely.

2011-06-02sctp: Add ASCONF operation on the single-homed hostMichio Honda
In this case, the SCTP association transmits an ASCONF packet including addition of the new IP address and deletion of the old address. This patch implements this functionality. In this case, the ASCONF chunk is added to the beginning of the queue, because the other chunks cannot be transmitted in this state.

2011-04-19sctp: teach CACC algorithm about removed transportsVlad Yasevich
When we have have to remove a transport due to ASCONF, we move the data to a new active path. This can trigger CACC algorithm to not mark that data as missing when SACKs arrive. This is because the transport passed to the CACC algorithm is the one this data is sitting on, not the one it was sent on (that one may be gone). So, by sending the original transport (even if it's NULL), we may start marking data as missing.

2010-04-30sctp: Optimize computation of highest new tsn in SACK.Vlad Yasevich
Right now, if the highest tsn in the SACK doesn't change, we'll end up scanning the transmitted lists on the transports twice: once for locating the highest _new_ tsn, and once for actually tagging chunks as acked. This is a waste, since we can record the highest _new_ tsn at the same time as tagging chunks. Long ago this was not possible because we would try to mark chunks as missing at the same time as tagging them acked and this approach didn't work. Now that the two steps are separate, we can re-use the old approach. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com>

2010-04-30sctp: remove 'resent' bit from the chunkVlad Yasevich
The 'resent' bit is used to make sure that we don't update rto estimate based on retransmitted chunks. However, we already have the 'rto_pending' bit that we test when need to update rto, so 'resent' bit is just extra. Additionally, we currently have a bug in that we always set a 'resent' bit and thus rto estimate is only updated by Heartbeats. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com>

2010-03-30include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo
implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.
