For now, the packet with an old ack is not accepted if we are in
FIN_WAIT1 state, which can cause retransmission. Taking the following
case as an example:
Client Server
| |
FIN_WAIT1(Send FIN, seq=10) FIN_WAIT1(Send FIN, seq=20, ack=10)
| |
| Send ACK(seq=21, ack=11)
Recv ACK(seq=21, ack=11)
|
Recv FIN(seq=20, ack=10)
In the case above, simultaneous close is happening, and the FIN and ACK
packet that send from the server is out of order. Then, the FIN will be
dropped by the client, as it has an old ack. Then, the server has to
retransmit the FIN, which can cause delay if the server has set the
SO_LINGER on the socket.
Old ack is accepted in the ESTABLISHED and TIME_WAIT state, and I think
it should be better to keep the same logic.
In this commit, we accept old ack in FIN_WAIT1/FIN_WAIT2/CLOSING/LAST_ACK
states. Maybe we should limit it to FIN_WAIT1 for now?

After commit 939463016b ("tcp: change data receiver flowlabel after one dup")
we noticed an increase of TCPACKSkippedPAWS events.
Neal Cardwell tracked the issue to tcp_disordered_ack() assumption
about remote peer TS clock.
RFC 1323 & 7323 are suggesting the following:
"timestamp clock frequency in the range 1 ms to 1 sec per tick
between 1ms and 1sec."
This has to be adjusted for 1 MHz clock frequency.
This hints at reorders of SACK packets on send side,
this might deserve a future patch.

This patch is based on a detailed report and ideas from Yepeng Pan
and Christian Rossow.
ACK seq validation is currently following RFC 5961 5.2 guidelines:
The ACK value is considered acceptable only if
it is in the range of ((SND.UNA - MAX.SND.WND) <= SEG.ACK <=
SND.NXT). All incoming segments whose ACK value doesn't satisfy the
above condition MUST be discarded and an ACK sent back. It needs to
be noted that RFC 793 on page 72 (fifth check) says: "If the ACK is a
duplicate (SEG.ACK < SND.UNA), it can be ignored. If the ACK
acknowledges something not yet sent (SEG.ACK > SND.NXT) then send an
ACK, drop the segment, and return". The "ignored" above implies that
the processing of the incoming data segment continues, which means
the ACK value is treated as acceptable. This mitigation makes the
ACK check more stringent since any ACK < SND.UNA wouldn't be
accepted, instead only ACKs that are in the range ((SND.UNA -
MAX.SND.WND) <= SEG.ACK <= SND.NXT) get through.
This can be refined for new (and possibly spoofed) flows,
by not accepting ACK for bytes that were never sent.
This greatly improves TCP security at a little cost.
I added a Fixes: tag to make sure this patch will reach stable trees,
even if the 'blamed' patch was adhering to the RFC.

Back in 2015, Van Jacobson suggested to use usec resolution in TCP TS values.
This has been implemented in our private kernels.
Goals were :
1) better observability of delays in networking stacks.
2) better disambiguation of events based on TSval/ecr values.
3) building block for congestion control modules needing usec resolution.
Back then we implemented a schem based on private SYN options
to negotiate the feature.
For upstream submission, we chose to use a route attribute,
because this feature is probably going to be used in private
networks [1] [2].
ip route add 10/8 ... features tcp_usec_ts
Note that RFC 7323 recommends a
"timestamp clock frequency in the range 1 ms to 1 sec per tick.",
but also mentions
"the maximum acceptable clock frequency is one tick every 59 ns."
[1] Unfortunately RFC 7323 5.5 (Outdated Timestamps) suggests
to invalidate TS.Recent values after a flow was idle for more
than 24 days. This is the part making usec_ts a problem
for peers following this recommendation for long living
idle flows.
[2] Attempts to standardize usec ts went nowhere:

This commit fix wrong RTO timeout when received SACK reneging.
When an ACK arrived pointing to a SACK reneging, tcp_check_sack_reneging()
will rearm the RTO timer for min(1/2*srtt, 10ms) into to the future.
But since the commit 62d9f1a694 ("tcp: fix TLP timer not set when
CA_STATE changes from DISORDER to OPEN") merged, the tcp_set_xmit_timer()
is moved after tcp_fastretrans_alert()(which do the SACK reneging check),
so the RTO timeout will be overwrited by tcp_set_xmit_timer() with
icsk_rto instead of 1/2*srtt.
Here is a packetdrill script to check this bug:
0 socket(..., SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_TCP) = 3
+0 bind(3, ..., ...) = 0
+0 listen(3, 1) = 0
// simulate srtt to 100ms
+0 < S 0:0(0) win 32792 <mss 1000, sackOK,nop,nop,nop,wscale 7>
+0 > S. 0:0(0) ack 1 <mss 1460,nop,nop,sackOK,nop,wscale 7>
+.1 < . 1:1(0) ack 1 win 1024
+0 accept(3, ..., ...) = 4
+0 write(4, ..., 10000) = 10000
+0 > P. 1:10001(10000) ack 1
// inject sack
+.1 < . 1:1(0) ack 1 win 257 <sack 1001:10001,nop,nop>
+0 > . 1:1001(1000) ack 1
// inject sack reneging
+.1 < . 1:1(0) ack 1001 win 257 <sack 9001:10001,nop,nop>
// we expect rto fired in 1/2*srtt (50ms)
+.05 > . 1001:2001(1000) ack 1
This fix remove the FLAG_SET_XMIT_TIMER from ack_flag when
tcp_check_sack_reneging() set RTO timer with 1/2*srtt to avoid
being overwrited later.

This commit changes the data receiver repath behavior to occur after
receiving a single duplicate. This can help recover ACK connectivity
quicker if a TLP was sent along a nonworking path.
For instance, consider the case where we have an initially nonworking
forward path and reverse path and subsequently switch to only working
forward paths. Before this patch we would have the following behavior.
+---------+--------+--------+----------+----------+----------+
| Event | For FL | Rev FL | FP Works | RP Works | Data Del |
+---------+--------+--------+----------+----------+----------+
| Initial | A | 1 | N | N | 0 |
+---------+--------+--------+----------+----------+----------+
| TLP | A | 1 | N | N | 0 |
+---------+--------+--------+----------+----------+----------+
| RTO 1 | B | 1 | Y | N | 1 |
+---------+--------+--------+----------+----------+----------+
| RTO 2 | C | 1 | Y | N | 2 |
+---------+--------+--------+----------+----------+----------+
| RTO 3 | D | 2 | Y | Y | 3 |
+---------+--------+--------+----------+----------+----------+
This patch gets rid of at least RTO 3, avoiding additional unnecessary
repaths of a working forward path to a (potentially) nonworking one.
In addition, this commit changes the behavior to avoid repathing upon
rx of duplicate data if the local endpoint is in CA_Loss (in which
case the RTOs will already be changing the outgoing flowlabel).

This commit fixes poor delayed ACK behavior that can cause poor TCP
latency in a particular boundary condition: when an application makes
a TCP socket write that is an exact multiple of the MSS size.
The problem is that there is painful boundary discontinuity in the
current delayed ACK behavior. With the current delayed ACK behavior,
we have:
(1) If an app reads data when > 1*MSS is unacknowledged, then
tcp_cleanup_rbuf() ACKs immediately because of:
tp->rcv_nxt - tp->rcv_wup > icsk->icsk_ack.rcv_mss ||
(2) If an app reads all received data, and the packets were < 1*MSS,
and either (a) the app is not ping-pong or (b) we received two
packets < 1*MSS, then tcp_cleanup_rbuf() ACKs immediately beecause
of:
((icsk->icsk_ack.pending & ICSK_ACK_PUSHED2) ||
((icsk->icsk_ack.pending & ICSK_ACK_PUSHED) &&
!inet_csk_in_pingpong_mode(sk))) &&
(3) *However*: if an app reads exactly 1*MSS of data,
tcp_cleanup_rbuf() does not send an immediate ACK. This is true
even if the app is not ping-pong and the 1*MSS of data had the PSH
bit set, suggesting the sending application completed an
application write.
Thus if the app is not ping-pong, we have this painful case where
>1*MSS gets an immediate ACK, and <1*MSS gets an immediate ACK, but a
write whose last skb is an exact multiple of 1*MSS can get a 40ms
delayed ACK. This means that any app that transfers data in one
direction and takes care to align write size or packet size with MSS
can suffer this problem. With receive zero copy making 4KB MSS values
more common, it is becoming more common to have application writes
naturally align with MSS, and more applications are likely to
encounter this delayed ACK problem.
The fix in this commit is to refine the delayed ACK heuristics with a
simple check: immediately ACK a received 1*MSS skb with PSH bit set if
the app reads all data. Why? If an skb has a len of exactly 1*MSS and
has the PSH bit set then it is likely the end of an application
write. So more data may not be arriving soon, and yet the data sender
may be waiting for an ACK if cwnd-bound or using TX zero copy. Thus we
set ICSK_ACK_PUSHED in this case so that tcp_cleanup_rbuf() will send
an ACK immediately if the app reads all of the data and is not
ping-pong. Note that this logic is also executed for the case where
len > MSS, but in that case this logic does not matter (and does not
hurt) because tcp_cleanup_rbuf() will always ACK immediately if the
app reads data and there is more than an MSS of unACKed data.

The 2023 SIGCOMM paper "Improving Network Availability with Protective
ReRoute" has indicated Linux TCP's RTO-triggered txhash rehashing can
effectively reduce application disruption during outages. To better
measure the efficacy of this feature, this patch adds three more
detailed stats during RTO recovery and exports via TCP_INFO.
Applications and monitoring systems can leverage this data to measure
the network path diversity and end-to-end repair latency during network
outages to improve their network infrastructure.
The following counters are added to tcp_sock in order to track RTO
events over the lifetime of a TCP socket.
1. u16 total_rto - Counts the total number of RTO timeouts.
2. u16 total_rto_recoveries - Counts the total number of RTO recoveries.
3. u32 total_rto_time - Counts the total time spent (ms) in RTO
recoveries. (time spent in CA_Loss and
CA_Recovery states)
To compute total_rto_time, we add a new u32 rto_stamp field to
tcp_sock. rto_stamp records the start timestamp (ms) of the last RTO
recovery (CA_Loss).
Corresponding fields are also added to the tcp_info struct.

For passive TCP Fast Open sockets that had SYN/ACK timeout and did not
send more data in SYN_RECV, upon receiving the final ACK in 3WHS, the
congestion state may awkwardly stay in CA_Loss mode unless the CA state
was undone due to TCP timestamp checks. However, if
tcp_rcv_synrecv_state_fastopen() decides not to undo, then we should
enter CA_Open, because at that point we have received an ACK covering
the retransmitted SYNACKs. Currently, the icsk_ca_state is only set to
CA_Open after we receive an ACK for a data-packet. This is because
tcp_ack does not call tcp_fastretrans_alert (and tcp_process_loss) if
!prior_packets
Note that tcp_process_loss() calls tcp_try_undo_recovery(), so having
tcp_rcv_synrecv_state_fastopen() decide that if we're in CA_Loss we
should call tcp_try_undo_recovery() is consistent with that, and
low risk.

drop was noticed for large bulk transfers.
For high throughput flows, it is best to use one cpu
running the user thread issuing socket system calls,
and a separate cpu to process incoming packets from BH context.
(With TSO/GRO, bottleneck is usually the 'user' cpu)
Problem is the user thread can spend a lot of time while holding
the socket lock, forcing BH handler to queue most of incoming
packets in the socket backlog.
Whenever the user thread releases the socket lock, it must first
process all accumulated packets in the backlog, potentially
adding latency spikes. Due to flood mitigation, having too many
packets in the backlog increases chance of unexpected drops.
Backlog processing unfortunately shifts a fair amount of cpu cycles
from the BH cpu to the 'user' cpu, thus reducing max throughput.
This patch takes advantage of the backlog processing,
and the fact that ACK are mostly cumulative.
The idea is to detect we are in the backlog processing
and defer all eligible ACK into a single one,
sent from tcp_release_cb().
This saves cpu cycles on both sides, and network resources.
Performance of a single TCP flow on a 200Gbit NIC:
- Throughput is increased by 20% (100Gbit -> 120Gbit).
- Number of generated ACK per second shrinks from 240,000 to 40,000.
- Number of backlog drops per second shrinks from 230 to 0.
Benchmark context:
- Regular netperf TCP_STREAM (no zerocopy)
- Intel(R) Xeon(R) Platinum 8481C (Saphire Rapids)
- MAX_SKB_FRAGS = 17 (~60KB per GRO packet)
This feature is guarded by a new sysctl, and enabled by default:

Fow now, an ACK can update the window in following case, according to
the tcp_may_update_window():
1. the ACK acknowledged new data
2. the ACK has new data
3. the ACK expand the window and the seq of it is valid
Now, we allow the ACK update the window if the window is 0, and the
seq/ack of it is valid. This is for the case that the receiver replies
an zero-window ACK when it is under memory stress and can't queue the new

With modern NIC drivers shifting to full page allocations per
received frame, we face the following issue:
TCP has one per-netns sysctl used to tweak how to translate
a memory use into an expected payload (RWIN), in RX path.
tcp_win_from_space() implementation is limited to few cases.
For hosts dealing with various MSS, we either under estimate
or over estimate the RWIN we send to the remote peers.
For instance with the default sysctl_tcp_adv_win_scale value,
we expect to store 50% of payload per allocated chunk of memory.
For the typical use of MTU=1500 traffic, and order-0 pages allocations
by NIC drivers, we are sending too big RWIN, leading to potential
tcp collapse operations, which are extremely expensive and source
of latency spikes.
This patch makes sysctl_tcp_adv_win_scale obsolete, and instead
uses a per socket scaling factor, so that we can precisely
adjust the RWIN based on effective skb->len/skb->truesize ratio.
This patch alone can double TCP receive performance when receivers
are too slow to drain their receive queue, or by allowing
a bigger RWIN when MSS is close to PAGE_SIZE.

In this patch, we mainly try to handle sending a compressed ack
correctly if it's deferred.
Here are more details in the old logic:
When sack compression is triggered in the tcp_compressed_ack_kick(),
if the sock is owned by user, it will set TCP_DELACK_TIMER_DEFERRED
and then defer to the release cb phrase. Later once user releases
the sock, tcp_delack_timer_handler() should send a ack as expected,
which, however, cannot happen due to lack of ICSK_ACK_TIMER flag.
Therefore, the receiver would not sent an ack until the sender's
retransmission timeout. It definitely increases unnecessary latency.

Our Network Load Balancer (NLB) [0] has multiple nodes with different
IP addresses, and each node forwards TCP flows from clients to backend
targets. NLB has an option to preserve the client's source IP address
and port when routing packets to backend targets. [1]
When a client connects to two different NLB nodes, they may select the
same backend target. Then, if the client has used the same source IP
and port, the two flows at the backend side will have the same 4-tuple.
While testing around such cases, I saw these sequences on the backend
target.

It seems to be working correctly, but the last ACK was generated by
tcp_send_dupack() and PAWSEstab was increased. This is because the
second connection has a smaller timestamp than the first one.
In this case, we should send a dup ACK in tcp_send_challenge_ack()
to increase the correct counter and rate-limit it properly.
Let's check the SYN flag after the PAWS tests to avoid adding unnecessary
overhead for most packets.
