Various /proc/net files sometimes report crazy timer values, expressed
in clock_t units.
This happens when an expired timer delta (expires - jiffies) is passed
to jiffies_to_clock_t().
This function has an overflow in :
return div_u64((u64)x * TICK_NSEC, NSEC_PER_SEC / USER_HZ);
commit cbbc719fcc (time: Change jiffies_to_clock_t() argument type
to unsigned long) only got around the problem.
As we cant output negative values in /proc/net/tcp without breaking
various tools, I suggest adding a jiffies_delta_to_clock_t() wrapper
that caps the negative delta to a 0 value.

While playing with CoDel and ECN marking, I discovered a
non optimal behavior of receiver of CE (Congestion Encountered)
segments.
In pathological cases, sender has reduced its cwnd to low values,
and receiver delays its ACK (by 40 ms).
While RFC 3168 6.1.3 (The TCP Receiver) doesn't explicitly recommend
to send immediate ACKS, we believe its better to not delay ACKS, because
a CE segment should give same signal than a dropped segment, and its
quite important to reduce RTT to give ECE/CWR signals as fast as
possible.
Note we already call tcp_enter_quickack_mode() from TCP_ECN_check_ce()
if we receive a retransmit, for the same reason.

While doing TCP ECN tests, I discovered GRO was reordering packets if it
receives one packet with CE set, while previous packets in same NAPI run
have ECT(0) for the same flow :

We have two problems here :
1) GRO reorders packets
If NIC gave packet1, then packet2, which happen to be from "different
flows" GRO feeds stack with packet2, then packet1. I have yet to
understand how to solve this problem.
2) GRO is not ECN friendly
Delivering packets out of order makes TCP stack not as fast as it could
be.
In this patch I suggest we make the tos test not part of the 'same_flow'
determination, but part of the 'should flush' logic

Other regulatory restrictions are provided as flags in the channel

A peer (or local user) may cause TCP to use a nominal MSS of as little
as 88 (actual MSS of 76 with timestamps). Given that we have a
sufficiently prodigious local sender and the peer ACKs quickly enough,
it is nevertheless possible to grow the window for such a connection
to the point that we will try to send just under 64K at once. This
results in a single skb that expands to 861 segments.
In some drivers with TSO support, such an skb will require hundreds of
DMA descriptors; a substantial fraction of a TX ring or even more than
a full ring. The TX queue selected for the skb may stall and trigger
the TX watchdog repeatedly (since the problem skb will be retried
after the TX reset). This particularly affects sfc, for which the
issue is designated as CVE-2012-3412.
Therefore:
1. Add the field net_device::gso_max_segs holding the device-specific
limit.
2. In netif_skb_features(), if the number of segments is too high then
mask out GSO features to force fall back to software GSO.

This patch series is based on top of "Swap-over-NBD without deadlocking
v15" as it depends on the same reservation of PF_MEMALLOC reserves logic.
When a user or administrator requires swap for their application, they
create a swap partition and file, format it with mkswap and activate it
with swapon. In diskless systems this is not an option so if swap if
required then swapping over the network is considered. The two likely
scenarios are when blade servers are used as part of a cluster where the
form factor or maintenance costs do not allow the use of disks and thin
clients.
The Linux Terminal Server Project recommends the use of the Network Block
Device (NBD) for swap but this is not always an option. There is no
guarantee that the network attached storage (NAS) device is running Linux
or supports NBD. However, it is likely that it supports NFS so there are
users that want support for swapping over NFS despite any performance
concern. Some distributions currently carry patches that support swapping
over NFS but it would be preferable to support it in the mainline kernel.
Patch 1 avoids a stream-specific deadlock that potentially affects TCP.
Patch 2 is a small modification to SELinux to avoid using PFMEMALLOC
reserves.
Patch 3 adds three helpers for filesystems to handle swap cache pages.
For example, page_file_mapping() returns page->mapping for
file-backed pages and the address_space of the underlying
swap file for swap cache pages.
Patch 4 adds two address_space_operations to allow a filesystem
to pin all metadata relevant to a swapfile in memory. Upon
successful activation, the swapfile is marked SWP_FILE and
the address space operation ->direct_IO is used for writing
and ->readpage for reading in swap pages.
Patch 5 notes that patch 3 is bolting
filesystem-specific-swapfile-support onto the side and that
the default handlers have different information to what
is available to the filesystem. This patch refactors the
code so that there are generic handlers for each of the new
address_space operations.
Patch 6 adds an API to allow a vector of kernel addresses to be
translated to struct pages and pinned for IO.
Patch 7 adds support for using highmem pages for swap by kmapping
the pages before calling the direct_IO handler.
Patch 8 updates NFS to use the helpers from patch 3 where necessary.
Patch 9 avoids setting PF_private on PG_swapcache pages within NFS.
Patch 10 implements the new swapfile-related address_space operations
for NFS and teaches the direct IO handler how to manage
kernel addresses.
Patch 11 prevents page allocator recursions in NFS by using GFP_NOIO
where appropriate.
Patch 12 fixes a NULL pointer dereference that occurs when using
swap-over-NFS.
With the patches applied, it is possible to mount a swapfile that is on an
NFS filesystem. Swap performance is not great with a swap stress test
taking roughly twice as long to complete than if the swap device was
backed by NBD.
This patch: netvm: prevent a stream-specific deadlock
It could happen that all !SOCK_MEMALLOC sockets have buffered so much data
that we're over the global rmem limit. This will prevent SOCK_MEMALLOC
buffers from receiving data, which will prevent userspace from running,
which is needed to reduce the buffered data.
Fix this by exempting the SOCK_MEMALLOC sockets from the rmem limit. Once
this change it applied, it is important that sockets that set
SOCK_MEMALLOC do not clear the flag until the socket is being torn down.

In order to make sure pfmemalloc packets receive all memory needed to
proceed, ensure processing of pfmemalloc SKBs happens under PF_MEMALLOC.
This is limited to a subset of protocols that are expected to be used for
writing to swap. Taps are not allowed to use PF_MEMALLOC as these are
expected to communicate with userspace processes which could be paged out.

Change the skb allocation API to indicate RX usage and use this to fall
back to the PFMEMALLOC reserve when needed. SKBs allocated from the
reserve are tagged in skb->pfmemalloc. If an SKB is allocated from the
reserve and the socket is later found to be unrelated to page reclaim, the
packet is dropped so that the memory remains available for page reclaim.
Network protocols are expected to recover from this packet loss.

Allow specific sockets to be tagged SOCK_MEMALLOC and use __GFP_MEMALLOC
for their allocations. These sockets will be able to go below watermarks
and allocate from the emergency reserve. Such sockets are to be used to
service the VM (iow. to swap over). They must be handled kernel side,
exposing such a socket to user-space is a bug.
There is a risk that the reserves be depleted so for now, the
administrator is responsible for increasing min_free_kbytes as necessary
to prevent deadlock for their workloads.

When a device is unregistered, we have to purge all of the
references to it that may exist in the entire system.
If a route is uncached, we currently have no way of accomplishing
this.
So create a global list that is scanned when a network device goes
down. This mirrors the logic in net/core/dst.c's dst_ifdown().

Input path is mostly run under RCU and doesnt touch dst refcnt
But output path on forwarding or UDP workloads hits
badly dst refcount, and we have lot of false sharing, for example
in ipv4_mtu() when reading rt->rt_pmtu
Using a percpu cache for nh_rth_output gives a nice performance
increase at a small cost.

commit 404e0a8b6a (net: ipv4: fix RCU races on dst refcounts) tried
to solve a race but added a problem at device/fib dismantle time :
We really want to call dst_free() as soon as possible, even if sockets
still have dst in their cache.
dst_release() calls in free_fib_info_rcu() are not welcomed.
Root of the problem was that now we also cache output routes (in
nh_rth_output), we must use call_rcu() instead of call_rcu_bh() in
rt_free(), because output route lookups are done in process context.
Based on feedback and initial patch from David Miller (adding another
call_rcu_bh() call in fib, but it appears it was not the right fix)
I left the inet_sk_rx_dst_set() helper and added __rcu attributes
to nh_rth_output and nh_rth_input to better document what is going on in
this code.

We drop the lock when calling the ->alloc_msg() con op, which means
we need to (a) not clobber con->in_msg without the mutex held, and (b)
we need to verify that we are still in the OPEN state when we retake
it to avoid causing any mayhem. If the state does change, -EAGAIN
will get us back to con_work() and loop.

This function's calling convention is very limiting. In particular,
we can't return any error other than ENOMEM (and only implicitly),
which is a problem (see next patch).
Instead, return an normal 0 or error code, and make the skip a pointer
output parameter. Drop the useless in_hdr argument (we have the con
pointer).

The ceph_fault() function takes the con mutex, so we should avoid
dropping it before calling it. This fixes a potential race with
another thread calling ceph_con_close(), or _open(), or similar (we
don't reverify con->state after retaking the lock).
Add annotation so that lockdep realizes we will drop the mutex before
returning.

Use a simple set of 6 enumerated values for the socket states (CON_STATE_*)
and use those instead of the state bits. All of the con->state checks are
now under the protection of the con mutex, so this is safe. It also
simplifies many of the state checks because we can check for anything other
than the expected state instead of various bits for races we can think of.
This appears to hold up well to stress testing both with and without socket
failure injection on the server side.
