If tcp_send_ack() can not allocate skb, we properly handle this
and setup a timer to try later.
Use __GFP_NOWARN to avoid polluting syslog in the case host is
under memory pressure, so that pertinent messages are not lost under
a flood of useless information.
sk_gfp_atomic() can use its gfp_mask argument (all callers currently
were using GFP_ATOMIC before this patch)
We rename sk_gfp_atomic() to sk_gfp_mask() to clearly express this
function now takes into account its second argument (gfp_mask)
Note that when tcp_transmit_skb() is called with clone_it set to false,
we do not attempt memory allocations, so can pass a 0 gfp_mask, which
most compilers can emit faster than a non zero or constant value.

Application limited streams such as thin streams, that transmit small
amounts of payload in relatively few packets per RTT, can be prevented
from growing the CWND when in congestion avoidance. This leads to
increased sojourn times for data segments in streams that often transmit
time-dependent data.
Currently, a connection is considered CWND limited only after having
successfully transmitted at least one packet with new data, while at the
same time failing to transmit some unsent data from the output queue
because the CWND is full. Applications that produce small amounts of
data may be left in a state where it is never considered to be CWND
limited, because all unsent data is successfully transmitted each time
an incoming ACK opens up for more data to be transmitted in the send
window.
Fix by always testing whether the CWND is fully used after successful
packet transmissions, such that a connection is considered CWND limited
whenever the CWND has been filled. This is the correct behavior as
specified in RFC2861 (section 3.1).

TCP timestamps) have incorrect TS val (set to 0), but correct TS ecr.

We need to call skb_mstamp_get() to get proper TS val,
derived from skb->skb_mstamp
Note that RFC 1323 was advocating to not send TS option in RST segment,
but RFC 7323 recommends the opposite :
Once TSopt has been successfully negotiated, that is both <SYN> and
<SYN,ACK> contain TSopt, the TSopt MUST be sent in every non-<RST>
segment for the duration of the connection, and SHOULD be sent in an
<RST> segment (see Section 5.2 for details)
Note this RFC recommends to send TS val = 0, but we believe it is
premature : We do not know if all TCP stacks are properly
handling the receive side :
When an <RST> segment is
received, it MUST NOT be subjected to the PAWS check by verifying an
acceptable value in SEG.TSval, and information from the Timestamps
option MUST NOT be used to update connection state information.
SEG.TSecr MAY be used to provide stricter <RST> acceptance checks.
In 5 years, if/when all TCP stack are RFC 7323 ready, we might consider
to decide to send TS val = 0, if it buys something.

This patch makes TLP to use 1 sec timer by default when RTT is
not available due to SYN/ACK retransmission or SYN cookies.
Prior to this change, the lack of RTT prevents TLP so the first
data packets sent can only be recovered by fast recovery or RTO.
If the fast recovery fails to trigger the RTO is 3 second when
SYN/ACK is retransmitted. With this patch we can trigger fast
recovery in 1sec instead.
Note that we need to check Fast Open more properly. A Fast Open
connection could be (accepted then) closed before it receives
the final ACK of 3WHS so the state is FIN_WAIT_1. Without the
new check, TLP will retransmit FIN instead of SYN/ACK.

We'd like to provide one as well for SYNACK packets, so that all packets

Note that a SYNACK retransmit shuffles the tx hash, as Tom did

V1 of this patch contains Eric Dumazet's suggestion to move the per
dst RTAX_QUICKACK check into tcp_in_quickack_mode(). Thanks Eric.
I ran some tests and after setting the "ip route change quickack 1"
knob there were still many delayed ACKs sent. This occured
because when icsk_ack.quick=0 the !icsk_ack.pingpong value is
subsequently ignored as tcp_in_quickack_mode() checks both these
values. The condition for a quick ack to trigger requires
that both icsk_ack.quick != 0 and icsk_ack.pingpong=0. Currently
only icsk_ack.pingpong is controlled by the knob. But the
icsk_ack.quick value changes dynamically depending on heuristics.
The crux of the matter is that delayed acks still cannot be entirely
disabled even with the RTAX_QUICKACK per dst knob enabled. This
patch ensures that a quick ack is always sent when the RTAX_QUICKACK
per dst knob is turned on.
The "ip route change quickack 1" knob was recently added to enable
quickacks. It was modeled around the TCP_QUICKACK setsockopt() option.
This issue is that even with "ip route change quickack 1" enabled
we still see delayed ACKs under some conditions. It would be nice
to be able to completely disable delayed ACKs.
Here is an example:
# netstat -s|grep dela
3 delayed acks sent
For all routes enable the knob
# ip route change quickack 1
Generate some traffic across a slow link and we still see the delayed
acks.
# netstat -s|grep dela
106 delayed acks sent
1 delayed acks further delayed because of locked socket
The issue is that both the "ip route change quickack 1" knob and
the TCP_QUICKACK option set the icsk_ack.pingpong variable to 0.
However at the business end in the __tcp_ack_snd_check() routine,
tcp_in_quickack_mode() checks that both icsk_ack.quick != 0
and icsk_ack.pingpong=0 in order to trigger a quickack. As
icsk_ack.quick is determined by heuristics it can be 0. When
that occurs the icsk_ack.pingpong value is ignored and a delayed
ACK is sent regardless.
This patch moves the RTAX_QUICKACK per dst check into the
tcp_in_quickack_mode() routine which ensures that a quickack is
always sent when the quickack knob is enabled for that dst.

It turns out there are other cases where we want to force memory
schedule :
tcp_fragment() & tso_fragment() need to split a big TSO packet into
two smaller ones. If we block here because of TCP memory pressure,
we can effectively block TCP socket from sending new data.
If no further ACK is coming, this hang would be definitive, and socket
has no chance to effectively reduce its memory usage.

This work as a follow-up of commit f7b3bec6f5 ("net: allow setting ecn
via routing table") and adds RFC3168 section 6.1.1.1. fallback for outgoing
ECN connections. In other words, this work adds a retry with a non-ECN
setup SYN packet, as suggested from the RFC on the first timeout:
[...] A host that receives no reply to an ECN-setup SYN within the
normal SYN retransmission timeout interval MAY resend the SYN and
any subsequent SYN retransmissions with CWR and ECE cleared. [...]
Schematic client-side view when assuming the server is in tcp_ecn=2 mode,
that is, Linux default since 2009 via commit 255cac91c3 ("tcp: extend
ECN sysctl to allow server-side only ECN"):
1) Normal ECN-capable path:
SYN ECE CWR ----->
<----- SYN ACK ECE
ACK ----->
2) Path with broken middlebox, when client has fallback:
SYN ECE CWR ----X crappy middlebox drops packet
(timeout, rtx)
SYN ----->
<----- SYN ACK
ACK ----->
In case we would not have the fallback implemented, the middlebox drop
point would basically end up as:
SYN ECE CWR ----X crappy middlebox drops packet
(timeout, rtx)
SYN ECE CWR ----X crappy middlebox drops packet
(timeout, rtx)
SYN ECE CWR ----X crappy middlebox drops packet
(timeout, rtx)
In any case, it's rather a smaller percentage of sites where there would
occur such additional setup latency: it was found in end of 2014 that ~56%
of IPv4 and 65% of IPv6 servers of Alexa 1 million list would negotiate
ECN (aka tcp_ecn=2 default), 0.42% of these webservers will fail to connect
when trying to negotiate with ECN (tcp_ecn=1) due to timeouts, which the
fallback would mitigate with a slight latency trade-off. Recent related
paper on this topic:
Brian Trammell, Mirja Kühlewind, Damiano Boppart, Iain Learmonth,
Gorry Fairhurst, and Richard Scheffenegger:
"Enabling Internet-Wide Deployment of Explicit Congestion Notification."
Proc. PAM 2015, New York.

Thus, when net.ipv4.tcp_ecn=1 is being set, the patch will perform RFC3168,
section 6.1.1.1. fallback on timeout. For users explicitly not wanting this
which can be in DC use case, we add a net.ipv4.tcp_ecn_fallback knob that
allows for disabling the fallback.
tp->ecn_flags are not being cleared in tcp_ecn_clear_syn() on output, but
rather we let tcp_ecn_rcv_synack() take that over on input path in case a
SYN ACK ECE was delayed. Thus a spurious SYN retransmission will not prevent
ECN being negotiated eventually in that case.

Diagnosing problems related to Window Probes has been hard because
we lack a counter.
TCPWinProbe counts the number of ACK packets a sender has to send
at regular intervals to make sure a reverse ACK packet opening back
a window had not been lost.
TCPKeepAlive counts the number of ACK packets sent to keep TCP
flows alive (SO_KEEPALIVE)

With the advent of small rto timers in datacenter TCP,
(ip route ... rto_min x), the following can happen :
1) Qdisc is full, transmit fails.
TCP sets a timer based on icsk_rto to retry the transmit, without
exponential backoff.
With low icsk_rto, and lot of sockets, all cpus are servicing timer
interrupts like crazy.
Intent of the code was to retry with a timer between 200 (TCP_RTO_MIN)
and 500ms (TCP_RESOURCE_PROBE_INTERVAL)
2) Receivers can send zero windows if they don't drain their receive queue.
TCP sends zero window probes, based on icsk_rto current value, with
exponential backoff.
With /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_retries2 being 15 (or even smaller in
some cases), sender can abort in less than one or two minutes !
If receiver stops the sender, it obviously doesn't care of very tight
rto. Probability of dropping the ACK reopening the window is not
worth the risk.
Lets change the base timer to be at least 200ms (TCP_RTO_MIN) for these
events (but not normal RTO based retransmits)
A followup patch adds a new SNMP counter, as it would have helped a lot
diagnosing this issue.

Presence of an unbound loop in tcp_send_fin() had always been hard
to explain when analyzing crash dumps involving gigantic dying processes
with millions of sockets.
Lets try a different strategy :
In case of memory pressure, try to add the FIN flag to last packet
in write queue, even if packet was already sent. TCP stack will
be able to deliver this FIN after a timeout event. Note that this
FIN being delivered by a retransmit, it also carries a Push flag
given our current implementation.
By checking sk_under_memory_pressure(), we anticipate that cooking
many FIN packets might deplete tcp memory.
In the case we could not allocate a packet, even with __GFP_WAIT
allocation, then not sending a FIN seems quite reasonable if it allows
to get rid of this socket, free memory, and not block the process from
eventually doing other useful work.

Using sk_stream_alloc_skb() in tcp_send_fin() is dangerous in
case a huge process is killed by OOM, and tcp_mem[2] is hit.
To be able to free memory we need to make progress, so this
patch allows FIN packets to not care about tcp_mem[2], if
skb allocation succeeded.
In a follow-up patch, we might abort tcp_send_fin() infinite loop
in case TIF_MEMDIE is set on this thread, as memory allocator
did its best getting extra memory already.

This is because we need to clear skb->tstamp before
entering lower stack, otherwise net_timestamp_check()
does not set skb->tstamp.

Fast Open has been using an experimental option with a magic number
(RFC6994). This patch makes the client by default use the RFC7413
option (34) to get and send Fast Open cookies. This patch makes
the client solicit cookies from a given server first with the
RFC7413 option. If that fails to elicit a cookie, then it tries
the RFC6994 experimental option. If that also fails, it uses the
RFC7413 option on all subsequent connect attempts. If the server
returns a Fast Open cookie then the client caches the form of the
option that successfully elicited a cookie, and uses that form on
later connects when it presents that cookie.
The idea is to gradually obsolete the use of experimental options as
the servers and clients upgrade, while keeping the interoperability
meanwhile.

While timer handler effectively runs a rcu read locked section,
there is no explicit rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock() annotations
and lockdep can be confused here :
net/ipv4/tcp_ipv4.c-906- /* caller either holds rcu_read_lock() or socket lock */
net/ipv4/tcp_ipv4.c:907: md5sig = rcu_dereference_check(tp->md5sig_info,
net/ipv4/tcp_ipv4.c-908- sock_owned_by_user(sk) ||
net/ipv4/tcp_ipv4.c-909- lockdep_is_held(&sk->sk_lock.slock));

("tcp: tcp_make_synack() should use sock_wmalloc")
When under SYNFLOOD, we build lot of SYNACK and hit false sharing
