a402a5aa9b net: dccp: Remove extern from function prototypes
There are a mix of function prototypes with and without extern
in the kernel sources.  Standardize on not using extern for
function prototypes.

Function prototypes don't need to be written with extern.
extern is assumed by the compiler.  Its use is as unnecessary as
using auto to declare automatic/local variables in a block.

b44084c2c8 inet: rename ir_loc_port to ir_num
In commit 634fb979e8 ("inet: includes a sock_common in request_sock")
I forgot that the two ports in sock_common do not have same byte order :

skc_dport is __be16 (network order), but skc_num is __u16 (host order)

So sparse complains because ir_loc_port (mapped into skc_num) is
considered as __u16 while it should be __be16

Let rename ir_loc_port to ireq->ir_num (analogy with inet->inet_num),
and perform appropriate htons/ntohs conversions.

634fb979e8 inet: includes a sock_common in request_sock
TCP listener refactoring, part 5 :

We want to be able to insert request sockets (SYN_RECV) into main
ehash table instead of the per listener hash table to allow RCU
lookups and remove listener lock contention.

This patch includes the needed struct sock_common in front
of struct request_sock

This means there is no more inet6_request_sock IPv6 specific
structure.

Following inet_request_sock fields were renamed as they became
macros to reference fields from struct sock_common.
Prefix ir_ was chosen to avoid name collisions.

loc_port   -> ir_loc_port
loc_addr   -> ir_loc_addr
rmt_addr   -> ir_rmt_addr
rmt_port   -> ir_rmt_port
iif        -> ir_iif

efe4208f47 ipv6: make lookups simpler and faster
TCP listener refactoring, part 4 :

To speed up inet lookups, we moved IPv4 addresses from inet to struct
sock_common

Now is time to do the same for IPv6, because it permits us to have fast
lookups for all kind of sockets, including upcoming SYN_RECV.

Getting IPv6 addresses in TCP lookups currently requires two extra cache
lines, plus a dereference (and memory stall).

inet6_sk(sk) does the dereference of inet_sk(__sk)->pinet6

This patch is way bigger than its IPv4 counter part, because for IPv4,
we could add aliases (inet_daddr, inet_rcv_saddr), while on IPv6,
it's not doable easily.

inet6_sk(sk)->daddr becomes sk->sk_v6_daddr
inet6_sk(sk)->rcv_saddr becomes sk->sk_v6_rcv_saddr

And timewait socket also have tw->tw_v6_daddr & tw->tw_v6_rcv_saddr
at the same offset.

We get rid of INET6_TW_MATCH() as INET6_MATCH() is now the generic
macro.

05dbc7b594 tcp/dccp: remove twchain
TCP listener refactoring, part 3 :

Our goal is to hash SYN_RECV sockets into main ehash for fast lookup,
and parallel SYN processing.

Current inet_ehash_bucket contains two chains, one for ESTABLISH (and
friend states) sockets, another for TIME_WAIT sockets only.

As the hash table is sized to get at most one socket per bucket, it
makes little sense to have separate twchain, as it makes the lookup
slightly more complicated, and doubles hash table memory usage.

If we make sure all socket types have the lookup keys at the same
offsets, we can use a generic and faster lookup. It turns out TIME_WAIT
and ESTABLISHED sockets already have common lookup fields for IPv4.

[ INET_TW_MATCH() is no longer needed ]

I'll provide a follow-up to factorize IPv6 lookup as well, to remove
INET6_TW_MATCH()

This way, SYN_RECV pseudo sockets will be supported the same.

A new sock_gen_put() helper is added, doing either a sock_put() or
inet_twsk_put() [ and will support SYN_RECV later ].

Note this helper should only be called in real slow path, when rcu
lookup found a socket that was moved to another identity (freed/reused
immediately), but could eventually be used in other contexts, like
sock_edemux()

Before patch :

dmesg | grep "TCP established"

TCP established hash table entries: 524288 (order: 11, 8388608 bytes)

After patch :

TCP established hash table entries: 524288 (order: 10, 4194304 bytes)

This happens, because sk_clone_lock initializes sk_refcnt to 2, and thus
a single sock_put() is not enough to free the memory. Additionally, things
like xfrm, memcg, cookie_values,... may have been initialized.
We have to free them properly.

This is fixed by forcing a call to tcp_done(), ending up in
inet_csk_destroy_sock, doing the final sock_put(). tcp_done() is necessary,
because it ends up doing all the cleanup on xfrm, memcg, cookie_values,
xfrm,...

Before calling tcp_done, we have to set the socket to SOCK_DEAD, to
force it entering inet_csk_destroy_sock. To avoid the warning in
inet_csk_destroy_sock, inet_num has to be set to 0.
As inet_csk_destroy_sock does a dec on orphan_count, we first have to
increase it.

Calling tcp_done() allows us to remove the calls to
tcp_clear_xmit_timer() and tcp_cleanup_congestion_control().

A similar approach is taken for dccp by calling dccp_done().

This is in the kernel since 093d282321 (tproxy: fix hash locking issue
when using port redirection in __inet_inherit_port()), thus since
version >= 2.6.37.

e6c022a4fa tcp: better retrans tracking for defer-accept
For passive TCP connections using TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT facility,
we incorrectly increment req->retrans each time timeout triggers
while no SYNACK is sent.

SYNACK are not sent for TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT that were established (for
which we received the ACK from client). Only the last SYNACK is sent
so that we can receive again an ACK from client, to move the req into
accept queue. We plan to change this later to avoid the useless
retransmit (and potential problem as this SYNACK could be lost)

TCP_INFO later gives wrong information to user, claiming imaginary
retransmits.

Decouple req->retrans field into two independent fields :

num_retrans : number of retransmit
num_timeout : number of timeouts

num_timeout is the counter that is incremented at each timeout,
regardless of actual SYNACK being sent or not, and used to
compute the exponential timeout.

Introduce inet_rtx_syn_ack() helper to increment num_retrans
only if ->rtx_syn_ack() succeeded.

Use inet_rtx_syn_ack() from tcp_check_req() to increment num_retrans
when we re-send a SYNACK in answer to a (retransmitted) SYN.
Prior to this patch, we were not counting these retransmits.

Change tcp_v[46]_rtx_synack() to increment TCP_MIB_RETRANSSEGS
only if a synack packet was successfully queued.

92101b3b2e ipv4: Prepare for change of rt->rt_iif encoding.
Use inet_iif() consistently, and for TCP record the input interface of
cached RX dst in inet sock.

rt->rt_iif is going to be encoded differently, so that we can
legitimately cache input routes in the FIB info more aggressively.

When the input interface is "use SKB device index" the rt->rt_iif will
be set to zero.

This forces us to move the TCP RX dst cache installation into the ipv4
specific code, and as well it should since doing the route caching for
ipv6 is pointless at the moment since it is not inspected in the ipv6
input paths yet.

Also, remove the unlikely on dst->obsolete, all ipv4 dsts have
obsolete set to a non-zero value to force invocation of the check
callback.

6700c2709c net: Pass optional SKB and SK arguments to dst_ops->{update_pmtu,redirect}()
This will be used so that we can compose a full flow key.

Even though we have a route in this context, we need more.  In the
future the routes will be without destination address, source address,
etc. keying.  One ipv4 route will cover entire subnets, etc.

In this environment we have to have a way to possess persistent storage
for redirects and PMTU information.  This persistent storage will exist
in the FIB tables, and that's why we'll need to be able to rebuild a
full lookup flow key here.  Using that flow key will do a fib_lookup()
and create/update the persistent entry.

81aded2467 ipv6: Handle PMTU in ICMP error handlers.
One tricky issue on the ipv6 side vs. ipv4 is that the ICMP callouts
to handle the error pass the 32-bit info cookie in network byte order
whereas ipv4 passes it around in host byte order.

Like the ipv4 side, we have two helper functions.  One for when we
have a socket context and one for when we do not.

ip6ip6 tunnels are not handled here, because they handle PMTU events
by essentially relaying another ICMP packet-too-big message back to
the original sender.

This patch allows us to get rid of rt6_do_pmtu_disc().  It handles all
kinds of situations that simply cannot happen when we do the PMTU
update directly using a fully resolved route.

In fact, the "plen == 128" check in ip6_rt_update_pmtu() can very
likely be removed or changed into a BUG_ON() check.  We should never
have a prefixed ipv6 route when we get there.

Another piece of strange history here is that TCP and DCCP, unlike in
ipv4, never invoke the update_pmtu() method from their ICMP error
handlers.  This is incredibly astonishing since this is the context
where we have the most accurate context in which to make a PMTU
update, namely we have a fully connected socket and associated cached
socket route.

This makes it a little less error prone by not exposing sysctls for the

This is the same way we handle all of our other network interfaces to

f541fb7e20 dccp: fix bug in sequence number validation during connection setup
This fixes a bug in the sequence number validation during the initial handshake.

The code did not treat the initial sequence numbers ISS and ISR as read-only and
did not keep state for GSR and GSS as required by the specification. This causes
problems with retransmissions during the initial handshake, causing the
budding connection to be reset.

This patch now treats ISS/ISR as read-only and tracks GSS/GSR as required.

6e5714eaf7 net: Compute protocol sequence numbers and fragment IDs using MD5.
Computers have become a lot faster since we compromised on the
partial MD4 hash which we use currently for performance reasons.

MD5 is a much safer choice, and is inline with both RFC1948 and
other ISS generators (OpenBSD, Solaris, etc.)

Furthermore, only having 24-bits of the sequence number be truly
unpredictable is a very serious limitation.  So the periodic
regeneration and 8-bit counter have been removed.  We compute and
use a full 32-bit sequence number.

For ipv6, DCCP was found to use a 32-bit truncated initial sequence
number (it needs 43-bits) and that is fixed here as well.

d96a9e8dd0 dccp ccid-2: check Ack Ratio when reducing cwnd
This patch causes CCID-2 to check the Ack Ratio after reducing the congestion
window. If the Ack Ratio is greater than the congestion window, it is
reduced. This prevents timeouts caused by an Ack Ratio larger than the
congestion window.

In this situation, we choose to set the Ack Ratio to half the congestion window
(or one if that's zero) so that if we loose one ack we don't trigger a timeout.

0ce95dc792 dccp ccid-2: increment cwnd correctly
This patch fixes an issue where CCID-2 will not increase the congestion
window for numerous RTTs after an idle period, application-limited period,
or a loss once the algorithm is in Congestion Avoidance.

What happens is that, when CCID-2 is in Congestion Avoidance mode, it will
increase hc->tx_packets_acked by one for every packet and will increment cwnd
every cwnd packets. However, if there is now an idle period in the connection,
cwnd will be reduced, possibly below the slow start threshold. This will
cause the connection to go into Slow Start. However, in Slow Start CCID-2
performs this test to increment cwnd every second ack:

	++hc->tx_packets_acked == 2

Unfortunately, this will be incorrect, if cwnd previous to the idle period
was larger than 2 and if tx_packets_acked was close to cwnd. For example:
	cwnd=50  and  tx_packets_acked=45.

In this case, the current code, will increment tx_packets_acked until it
equals two, which will only be once tx_packets_acked (an unsigned 32-bit
integer) overflows.

My fix is simply to change that test for tx_packets_acked greater than or
equal to two in slow start.

d346d886a4 dccp ccid-2: prevent cwnd > Sequence Window
Add a check to prevent CCID-2 from increasing the cwnd greater than the
Sequence Window.

When the congestion window becomes bigger than the Sequence Window, CCID-2
will attempt to keep more data in the network than the DCCP Sequence Window
code considers possible. This results in the Sequence Window code issuing
a Sync, thereby inducing needless overhead. Further, if this occurs at the
sender, CCID-2 will never detect the problem because the Acks it receives
will indicate no losses. I have seen this cause a drop of 1/3rd in throughput
for a connection.

Also add code to adjust the Sequence Window to be about 5 times the number of
packets in the network (RFC 4340, 7.5.2) and to adjust the Ack Ratio so that
the remote Sequence Window will hold about 5 times the number of packets in
the network. This allows the congestion window to increase correctly without
being limited by the Sequence Window.

d6916f87ca dccp: support for the exchange of NN options in established state 1/2
In contrast to static feature negotiation at the begin of a connection, this
patch introduces support for exchange of dynamically changing options.

Such an update/exchange is necessary in at least two cases:
 * CCID-2's Ack Ratio (RFC 4341, 6.1.2) which changes during the connection;
 * Sequence Window values that, as per RFC 4340, 7.5.2, should be sent "as
   the connection progresses".

Both are non-negotiable (NN) features, which means that no new capabilities
are negotiated, but rather that changes in known parameters are brought
up-to-date at either end.

Thse characteristics are reflected by the implementation:
 * only NN options can be exchanged after connection setup;
 * an ack is scheduled directly after activation to speed up the update;
 * CCIDs may request changes to an NN feature even if a negotiation for that
   feature is already underway: this is required by CCID-2, where changes in
   cwnd necessitate Ack Ratio changes, such that the previous Ack Ratio (which
   is still being negotiated) would cause irrecoverable RTO timeouts (thanks
   to work by Samuel Jero).

113ced1f52 dccp ccid-2: Perform congestion-window validation
CCID-2's cwnd increases like TCP during slow-start, which has implications for
 * the local Sequence Window value (should be > cwnd),
 * the Ack Ratio value.
Hence an exponential growth, if it does not reflect the actual network
conditions, can quickly lead to instability.

This patch adds congestion-window validation (RFC2861) to CCID-2:
 * cwnd is constrained if the sender is application limited;
 * cwnd is reduced after a long idle period, as suggested in the '90 paper
   by Van Jacobson, in RFC 2581 (sec. 4.1);
 * cwnd is never reduced below the RFC 3390 initial window.

As marked in the comments, the code is actually almost a direct copy of the
TCP congestion-window-validation algorithms. By continuing this work, it may
in future be possible to use the TCP code (not possible at the moment).

The mechanism can be turned off using a module parameter. Sampling of the
currently-used window (moving-maximum) is however done constantly; this is
used to determine the expected window, which can be exploited to regulate
DCCP's Sequence Window value.

This patch also sets slow-start-after-idle (RFC 4341, 5.1), i.e. it behaves like
TCP when net.ipv4.tcp_slow_start_after_idle = 1.

c0c2015056 dccp: Clean up slow-path input processing
This patch rearranges the order of statements of the slow-path input processing
(i.e. any other state than OPEN), to resolve the following issues.

 1. Dependencies: the order of statements now better matches RFC 4340, 8.5, i.e.
    step 7 is before step 9 (previously 9 was before 7), and parsing options in
    step 8 (which may consume resources) now comes after step 7.
 2. Sequence number checks are omitted if in state LISTEN/REQUEST, due to the
    note underneath the table in RFC 4340, 7.5.3.
    As a result, CCID processing is now indeed confined to OPEN/PARTOPEN states,
    i.e. congestion control is performed only on the flow of data packets. This
    avoids pathological cases of doing congestion control on those messages
    which set up and terminate the connection.
 3. Packets are now passed on to Ack Vector / CCID processing only after
    - step 7  (receive unexpected packets),
    - step 9  (receive Reset),
    - step 13 (receive CloseReq),
    - step 14 (receive Close)
    and only if the state is PARTOPEN. This simplifies CCID processing:
    - in LISTEN/CLOSED the CCIDs are non-existent;
    - in RESPOND/REQUEST the CCIDs have not yet been negotiated;
    - in CLOSEREQ and active-CLOSING the node has already closed this socket;
    - in passive-CLOSING the client is waiting for its Reset.
    In the last case, RFC 4340, 8.3 leaves it open to ignore further incoming
    data, which is the approach taken here.

f6d8bd051c inet: add RCU protection to inet->opt
We lack proper synchronization to manipulate inet->opt ip_options

Problem is ip_make_skb() calls ip_setup_cork() and
ip_setup_cork() possibly makes a copy of ipc->opt (struct ip_options),
without any protection against another thread manipulating inet->opt.

Another thread can change inet->opt pointer and free old one under us.

Use RCU to protect inet->opt (changed to inet->inet_opt).

Instead of handling atomic refcounts, just copy ip_options when
necessary, to avoid cache line dirtying.

We cant insert an rcu_head in struct ip_options since its included in
skb->cb[], so this patch is large because I had to introduce a new
ip_options_rcu structure.

2d7192d6cb ipv4: Sanitize and simplify ip_route_{connect,newports}()
These functions are used together as a unit for route resolution
during connect().  They address the chicken-and-egg problem that
exists when ports need to be allocated during connect() processing,
yet such port allocations require addressing information from the
routing code.

It's currently more heavy handed than it needs to be, and in
particular we allocate and initialize a flow object twice.

Let the callers provide the on-stack flow object.  That way we only
need to initialize it once in the ip_route_connect() call.

Later, if ip_route_newports() needs to do anything, it re-uses that
flow object as-is except for the ports which it updates before the
route re-lookup.

Also, describe why this set of facilities are needed and how it works
in a big comment.

68d0c6d34d ipv6: Consolidate route lookup sequences.
Route lookups follow a general pattern in the ipv6 code wherein
we first find the non-IPSEC route, potentially override the
flow destination address due to ipv6 options settings, and then
finally make an IPSEC search using either xfrm_lookup() or
__xfrm_lookup().

__xfrm_lookup() is used when we want to generate a blackhole route
if the key manager needs to resolve the IPSEC rules (in this case
-EREMOTE is returned and the original 'dst' is left unchanged).

Otherwise plain xfrm_lookup() is used and when asynchronous IPSEC
resolution is necessary, we simply fail the lookup completely.

All of these cases are encapsulated into two routines,
ip6_dst_lookup_flow and ip6_sk_dst_lookup_flow.  The latter of which
handles unconnected UDP datagram sockets.

dca8b089c9 ipv4: Rearrange how ip_route_newports() gets port keys.
ip_route_newports() is the only place in the entire kernel that
cares about the port members in the routing cache entry's lookup
flow key.

Therefore the only reason we store an entire flow inside of the
struct rtentry is for this one special case.

Rewrite ip_route_newports() such that:

1) The caller passes in the original port values, so we don't need
   to use the rth->fl.fl_ip_{s,d}port values to remember them.

2) The lookup flow is constructed by hand instead of being copied
   from the routing cache entry's flow.

corresponds to a link speed of 34 Gbps.

This patch adds a generic infrastructure for policy-based dequeueing of

 * a simple FIFO policy (which is the default) and
 * a priority based policy (set via socket options).
Both policies honour the tx_qlen sysctl for the maximum size of the write
queue (can be overridden via socket options).

The priority policy uses skb->priority internally to assign an u32 priority
identifier, using the same ranking as SO_PRIORITY. The skb->priority field
is set to 0 when the packet leaves DCCP. The priority is supplied as ancillary
data using cmsg(3), the patch also provides the requisite parsing routines.

c996d8b9a8 Docs/Kconfig: Update: osdl.org -> linuxfoundation.org
Some of the documentation refers to web pages under
the domain `osdl.org'. However, `osdl.org' now
redirects to `linuxfoundation.org'.

Rather than rely on redirections, this patch updates
the addresses appropriately; for the most part, only
documentation that is meant to be current has been
updated.

The patch should be pretty quick to scan and check;
each new web-page url was gotten by trying out the
original URL in a browser and then simply copying the
the redirected URL (formatting as necessary).

There is some conflict as to which one of these domain
names is preferred:

  linuxfoundation.org
  linux-foundation.org

So, I wrote:

  info@linuxfoundation.org

and got this reply:

7e87fe8430 dccp ccid-2: Separate option parsing from CCID processing
This patch replaces an almost identical replication of code: large parts
of dccp_parse_options() re-appeared as ccid2_ackvector() in ccid2.c.

Apart from the duplication, this caused two more problems:
 1. CCIDs should not need to be concerned with parsing header options;
 2. one can not assume that Ack Vectors appear as a contiguous area within an
    skb, it is legal to insert other options and/or padding in between. The
    current code would throw an error and stop reading in such a case.

Since Ack Vectors provide CCID-specific information, they are now processed
by the CCID directly, separating this functionality from the main DCCP code.

d83447f094 dccp ccid-2: Schedule Sync as out-of-band mechanism
The problem with Ack Vectors is that
  i) their length is variable and can in principle grow quite large,
 ii) it is hard to predict exactly how large they will be.

Due to the second point it seems not a good idea to reduce the MPS; in
particular when on average there is enough room for the Ack Vector and an
increase in length is momentarily due to some burst loss, after which the
Ack Vector returns to its normal/average length.

The solution taken by this patch is to subtract a minimum-expected Ack Vector
length from the MPS, and to defer any larger Ack Vectors onto a separate
Sync - but only if indeed there is no space left on the skb.

This patch provides the infrastructure to schedule Sync-packets for transporting
(urgent) out-of-band data. Its signalling is quicker than scheduling an Ack, since
it does not need to wait for new application data.

This aggregates Ack Vector processing (handling input and clearing old state)
into one function, for the following reasons and benefits:
 * all Ack Vector-specific processing is now in one place;
 * duplicated code is removed;
 * ensuring sanity: from an Ack Vector point of view, it is better to clear the
                    old state first before entering new state;
 * Ack Event handling happens mostly within the CCIDs, not the main DCCP module.

5753fdfe8b dccp ccid-2: Algorithm to update buffer state
This provides a routine to consistently update the buffer state when the
peer acknowledges receipt of Ack Vectors; updating state in the list of Ack
Vectors as well as in the circular buffer.

While based on RFC 4340, several additional (and necessary) precautions were
added to protect the consistency of the buffer state. These additions are
essential, since analysis and experience showed that the basic algorithm was
insufficient for this task (which lead to problems that were hard to debug).

The algorithm now
 * deals with HC-sender acknowledging to HC-receiver and vice versa,
 * keeps track of the last unacknowledged but received seqno in tail_ackno,
 * has special cases to reset the overflow condition when appropriate,
 * is protected against receiving older information (would mess up buffer state).

b3d14bff12 dccp ccid-2: Implementation of circular Ack Vector buffer with overflow handling
This completes the implementation of a circular buffer for Ack Vectors, by
extending the current (linear array-based) implementation.  The changes are:

 (a) An `overflow' flag to deal with the case of overflow. As before, dynamic
     growth of the buffer will not be supported; but code will be added to deal
     robustly with overflowing Ack Vector buffers.

 (b) A `tail_seqno' field. When naively implementing the algorithm of Appendix A
     in RFC 4340, problems arise whenever subsequent Ack Vector records overlap,
     which can bring the entire run length calculation completely out of synch.
     (This is documented on http://www.erg.abdn.ac.uk/users/gerrit/dccp/notes/\
                                             ack_vectors/tracking_tail_ackno/ .)
 (c) The buffer length is now computed dynamically (i.e. current fill level),
     as the span between head to tail.

As a result, dccp_ackvec_pending() is now simpler - the #ifdef is no longer
necessary since buf_empty is always true when IP_DCCP_ACKVEC is not configured.

f17a37c9b8 dccp ccid-2: Ack Vector interface clean-up
This patch brings the Ack Vector interface up to date. Its main purpose is
to lay the basis for the subsequent patches of this set, which will use the
new data structure fields and routines.

There are no real algorithmic changes, rather an adaptation:

 (1) Replaced the static Ack Vector size (2) with a #define so that it can
     be adapted (with low loss / Ack Ratio, a value of 1 works, so 2 seems
     to be sufficient for the moment) and added a solution so that computing
     the ECN nonce will continue to work - even with larger Ack Vectors.

 (2) Replaced the #defines for Ack Vector states with a complete enum.

 (3) Replaced #defines to compute Ack Vector length and state with general
     purpose routines (inlines), and updated code to use these.

 (4) Added a `tail' field (conversion to circular buffer in subsequent patch).

 (5) Updated the (outdated) documentation for Ack Vector struct.

 (6) All sequence number containers now trimmed to 48 bits.

 (7) Removal of unused bits:
     * removed dccpav_ack_nonce from struct dccp_ackvec, since this is already
       redundantly stored in the `dccpavr_ack_nonce' (of Ack Vector record);
     * removed Elapsed Time for Ack Vectors (it was nowhere used);
     * replaced semantics of dccpavr_sent_len with dccpavr_ack_runlen, since
       the code needs to be able to remember the old run length;
     * reduced the de-/allocation routines (redundant / duplicate tests).

b1fcf55eea dccp: Refine the wait-for-ccid mechanism
This extends the existing wait-for-ccid routine so that it may be used with
different types of CCID, addressing the following problems:

 1) The queue-drain mechanism only works with rate-based CCIDs. If CCID-2 for
    example has a full TX queue and becomes network-limited just as the
    application wants to close, then waiting for CCID-2 to become unblocked
    could lead to an indefinite  delay (i.e., application "hangs").
 2) Since each TX CCID in turn uses a feedback mechanism, there may be changes
    in its sending policy while the queue is being drained. This can lead to
    further delays during which the application will not be able to terminate.
 3) The minimum wait time for CCID-3/4 can be expected to be the queue length
    times the current inter-packet delay. For example if tx_qlen=100 and a delay
    of 15 ms is used for each packet, then the application would have to wait
    for a minimum of 1.5 seconds before being allowed to exit.
 4) There is no way for the user/application to control this behaviour. It would
    be good to use the timeout argument of dccp_close() as an upper bound. Then
    the maximum time that an application is willing to wait for its CCIDs to can
    be set via the SO_LINGER option.

These problems are addressed by giving the CCID a grace period of up to the
`timeout' value.

The wait-for-ccid function is, as before, used when the application
 (a) has read all the data in its receive buffer and
 (b) if SO_LINGER was set with a non-zero linger time, or
 (c) the socket is either in the OPEN (active close) or in the PASSIVE_CLOSEREQ
     state (client application closes after receiving CloseReq).

In addition, there is a catch-all case of __skb_queue_purge() after waiting for
the CCID. This is necessary since the write queue may still have data when
 (a) the host has been passively-closed,
 (b) abnormal termination (unread data, zero linger time),
 (c) wait-for-ccid could not finish within the given time limit.

dc841e30ea dccp: Extend CCID packet dequeueing interface
This extends the packet dequeuing interface of dccp_write_xmit() to allow
 1. CCIDs to take care of timing when the next packet may be sent;
 2. delayed sending (as before, with an inter-packet gap up to 65.535 seconds).

The main purpose is to take CCID-2 out of its polling mode (when it is network-
limited, it tries every millisecond to send, without interruption).

The mode of operation for (2) is as follows:
 * new packet is enqueued via dccp_sendmsg() => dccp_write_xmit(),
 * ccid_hc_tx_send_packet() detects that it may not send (e.g. window full),
 * it signals this condition via `CCID_PACKET_WILL_DEQUEUE_LATER',
 * dccp_write_xmit() returns without further action;
 * after some time the wait-condition for CCID becomes true,
 * that CCID schedules the tasklet,
 * tasklet function calls ccid_hc_tx_send_packet() via dccp_write_xmit(),
 * since the wait-condition is now true, ccid_hc_tx_packet() returns "send now",
 * packet is sent, and possibly more (since dccp_write_xmit() loops).

Code reuse: the taskled function calls dccp_write_xmit(), the timer function
            reduces to a wrapper around the same code.

fe84f4140f dccp: Return-value convention of hc_tx_send_packet()
This patch reorganises the return value convention of the CCID TX sending
function, to permit more flexible schemes, as required by subsequent patches.

Currently the convention is
 * values < 0     mean error,
 * a value == 0   means "send now", and
 * a value x > 0  means "send in x milliseconds".

The patch provides symbolic constants and a function to interpret return values.

In addition, it caps the maximum positive return value to 0xFFFF milliseconds,
corresponding to 65.535 seconds.  This is possible since in CCID-3/4 the
maximum possible inter-packet gap is fixed at t_mbi = 64 sec.

093d282321 tproxy: fix hash locking issue when using port redirection in __inet_inherit_port()
When __inet_inherit_port() is called on a tproxy connection the wrong locks are
held for the inet_bind_bucket it is added to. __inet_inherit_port() made an
implicit assumption that the listener's port number (and thus its bind bucket).
Unfortunately, if you're using the TPROXY target to redirect skbs to a
transparent proxy that assumption is not true anymore and things break.

This patch adds code to __inet_inherit_port() so that it can handle this case
by looking up or creating a new bind bucket for the child socket and updates
callers of __inet_inherit_port() to gracefully handle __inet_inherit_port()
failing.

6038f373a3 llseek: automatically add .llseek fop
All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make
nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a
.llseek pointer.

The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek
and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that
the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains
the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek.

New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek
and call nonseekable_open at open time.  Existing drivers can be converted
to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code
relies on calling seek on the device file.

The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains
comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was
chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will
be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not
seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle.

Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get
the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window.

Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic
patch that does all this.

d196c9a5d4 dccp: generalise data-loss condition
This patch generalises the task of determining data loss from RFC 4340, 7.7.1.

Let S_A, S_B be sequence numbers such that S_B is "after" S_A, and let
N_B be the NDP count of packet S_B. Then, using modulo-2^48 arithmetic,
 D = S_B - S_A - 1  is an upper bound of the number of lost data packets,
 D - N_B            is an approximation of the number of lost data packets
                    (there are cases where this is not exact).

The patch implements this as
 dccp_loss_count(S_A, S_B, N_B) := max(S_B - S_A - 1 - N_B, 0)

baf9e782e1 dccp: remove unused argument in CCID tx function
This removes the argument `more' from ccid_hc_tx_packet_sent, since it was
nowhere used in the entire code.

(Btw, this argument was not even used in the original KAME code where the
 function initially came from; compare the variable moreToSend in the
 freebsd61-dccp-kame-28.08.2006.patch kept by Emmanuel Lochin.)

0b53d4604a dccp: fix the adjustments to AWL and SWL
This fixes a problem and a potential loophole with regard to seqno/ackno
validity: currently the initial adjustments to AWL/SWL are only performed
once at the begin of the connection, during the handshake.

Since the Sequence Window feature is always greater than Wmin=32 (7.5.2),
it is however necessary to perform these adjustments at least for the first
W/W' (variables as per 7.5.1) packets in the lifetime of a connection.

This requirement is complicated by the fact that W/W' can change at any time
during the lifetime of a connection.

Therefore it is better to perform that safety check each time SWL/AWL are
updated, as implemented by the patch.

A second problem solved by this patch is that the remote/local Sequence Window
feature values (which set the bounds for AWL/SWL/SWH) are undefined until the
feature negotiation has completed.

During the initial handshake we have more stringent sequence number protection;
the changes added by this patch effect that {A,S}W{L,H} are within the correct
bounds at the instant that feature negotiation completes (since the SeqWin
feature activation handlers call dccp_update_gsr/gss()).

792e6d3389 dccp tfrc/ccid-3: computing the loss rate from the Loss Event Rate
This adds a function to take care of the following, separate cases occurring in
the computation of the Loss Rate p:

 * 1/(2^32-1) is mapped into 0% as per RFC 4342, 8.5;
 * 1/0        is mapped into 100%, the maximum;
 * to avoid that p = 1/x is rounded down to 0 when x is very large, since this
   means accidentally re-entering slow-start indicated by p == 0, the minimum
   resolution value of p is now returned instead;
 * a bug in ccid3_hc_rx_getsockopt is fixed: 1/0 was mapped into ~0U.

80763dfbac dccp ccid-3: remove dead states
This patch is thanks to an investigation by Leandro Sales de Melo and his
colleagues. They worked out two state diagrams which highlight the fact that
the xxx_TERM states in CCID-3/4 are in fact not necessary.

And this can be confirmed by in turn looking at the code: the xxx_TERM states
are only ever set in ccid3_hc_{rx,tx}_exit(): when CCID-3 sets the state
to xxx_TERM, it is at a time where no more processing should be going on,
hence it is not necessary to introduce a dedicated exit state - this is already
implied by unloading the CCID.

4874c131d7 dccp: Add packet type information to CCID-specific option parsing
This
 1. adds packet type information to ccid_hc_{rx,tx}_parse_options(). This is
    necessary, since table 3 in RFC 4340, 5.8 leaves it to the CCIDs to state
    which options may (not) appear on what packet type.

 2. adds such a check for CCID-3's {Loss Event, Receive} Rate as specified in
    RFC 4340 8.3 ("Receive Rate options MUST NOT be sent on DCCP-Data packets")
    and 8.5 ("Loss Event Rate options MUST NOT be sent on DCCP-Data packets").

 3. removes an unused argument `idx' from ccid_hc_{rx,tx}_parse_options(). This
    is also no longer necessary, since the CCID-specific option-parsing routines
    are passed every single parameter of the type-length-value option encoding.

37efb03fbd dccp ccid-3: Simplify and consolidate tx_parse_options
This simplifies and consolidates the TX option-parsing code:

 1. The Loss Intervals option is not currently used, so dead code related to
    this option is removed. I am aware of no plans to support the option, but
    if someone wants to implement it (e.g. for inter-op tests), it is better
    to start afresh than having to also update currently unused code.

 2. The Loss Event and Receive Rate options have a lot of code in common (both
    are 32 bit, both have same length etc.), so this is consolidated.

 3. The test against GSR is not necessary, because
    - on first loading CCID3, ccid_new() zeroes out all fields in the socket;
    - ccid3_hc_tx_packet_recv() treats 0 and ~0U equivalently, due to

	pinv = opt_recv->ccid3or_loss_event_rate;
	if (pinv == ~0U || pinv == 0)
		hctx->p = 0;

    - as a result, the sequence number field is removed from opt_recv.

d2c726309d dccp ccid-3: remove buggy RTT-sampling history lookup
This removes the RTT-sampling function tfrc_tx_hist_rtt(), since

 1. it suffered from complex passing of return values (the return value both
    indicated successful lookup while the value doubled as RTT sample);

 2. when for some odd reason the sample value equalled 0, this triggered a bug
    warning about "bogus Ack", due to the ambiguity of the return value;

 3. on a passive host which has not sent anything the TX history is empty and
    thus will lead to unwanted "bogus Ack" warnings such as
    ccid3_hc_tx_packet_recv: server(e7b7d518): DATAACK with bogus ACK-28197148
    ccid3_hc_tx_packet_recv: server(e7b7d518): DATAACK with bogus ACK-26641606.

The fix is to replace the implicit encoding by performing the steps manually.

Furthermore, the "bogus Ack" warning has been removed, since it can actually be
triggered due to several reasons (network reordering, old packet, (3) above),
hence it is not very useful.

20cbd3e120 dccp ccid-3: A lower bound for the inter-packet scheduling algorithm
This fixes a subtle bug in the calculation of the inter-packet gap and shows
that t_delta, as it is currently used, is not needed.

The algorithm from RFC 5348, 8.3 below continually computes a send time t_nom,
which is initialised with the current time t_now; t_gran = 1E6 / HZ specifies
the scheduling granularity, s the packet size, and X the sending rate:

  t_distance = t_nom - t_now;		// in microseconds
  t_delta    = min(t_ipi, t_gran) / 2;	// `delta' parameter in microseconds

  if (t_distance >= t_delta) {
	reschedule after (t_distance / 1000) milliseconds;
  } else {
  	t_ipi  = s / X;			// inter-packet interval in usec
	t_nom += t_ipi;			// compute the next send time
	send packet now;
  }

Problem:
--------
Rescheduling requires a conversion into milliseconds (sk_reset_timer()). The
highest jiffy resolution with HZ=1000 is 1 millisecond, so using a higher
granularity does not make much sense here.

As a consequence, values of t_distance < 1000 are truncated to 0. This issue
has so far been resolved by using instead

  if (t_distance >= t_delta + 1000)
	reschedule after (t_distance / 1000) milliseconds;

This is unnecessarily large, a lower bound is t_delta' = max(t_delta, 1000).
And it implies a further simplification:

 a) when HZ >= 500, then t_delta <= t_gran/2 = 10^6/(2*HZ) <= 1000, so that
    t_delta' = MAX(1000, t_delta) = 1000 (constant value);

 b) when HZ < 500, then t_delta = 1/2*MIN(rtt, t_ipi, t_gran) <= t_gran/2,
    so that 1000 <= t_delta' <= t_gran/2.

The maximum error of using a constant t_delta in (b) is less than half a jiffy.

Fix:
----
The patch replaces t_delta with a constant, whose value depends on CONFIG_HZ,
changing the above algorithm to:

  if (t_distance >= t_delta')
	reschedule after (t_distance / 1000) milliseconds;

where t_delta' = 10^6/(2*HZ) if HZ < 500, and t_delta' = 1000 otherwise.

89858ad143 dccp ccid-3: use per-route RTO or TCP RTO as fallback
This makes RTAX_RTO_MIN also available to CCID-3, replacing the compile-time
RTO lower bound with a per-route tunable value.

The original Kconfig option solved the problem that a very low RTT (in the
order of HZ) can trigger too frequent and unnecessary reductions of the
sending rate.

This tunable does not affect the initial RTO value of 2 seconds specified in
RFC 5348, section 4.2 and Appendix B. But like the hardcoded Kconfig value,
it allows to adapt to network conditions.

The same effect as the original Kconfig option of 100ms is now achieved by

> ip route replace to unicast 192.168.0.0/24 rto_min 100j dev eth0

(assuming HZ=1000).

4886fcad6e dccp ccid-2: Share TCP's minimum RTO code
Using a fixed RTO_MIN of 0.2 seconds was found to cause problems for CCID-2
over 802.11g: at least once per session there was a spurious timeout. It
helped to then increase the the value of RTO_MIN over this link.

Since the problem is the same as in TCP, this patch makes the solution from
commit "05bb1fad1cde025a864a90cfeb98dcbefe78a44a"
       "[TCP]: Allow minimum RTO to be configurable via routing metrics."
available to DCCP.

This avoids reinventing the wheel, so that e.g. the following works in the
expected way now also for CCID-2:

> ip route change 10.0.0.2 rto_min 800 dev ath0

Luckily this useful rto_min function was recently moved to net/tcp.h,
which simplifies sharing code originating from TCP.

Documentation also updated (plus minor whitespace fixes).

d26eeb07fd dccp ccid-2: Remove wrappers around sk_{reset,stop}_timer()
This removes the wrappers around the sk timer functions, since not much is
gained from using them: the BUG_ON in start_rto_timer will never trigger
since that function is called only if:

 * the RTO timer expires (rto_expire, and then timer_pending() is false);
 * in tx_packet_sent only if !timer_pending() (BUG_ON is redundant here);
 * previously in new_ack, after stopping the timer (timer_pending() false).

Removing the wrappers also clears the way for eventually replacing the
RTO timer with the icsk-retransmission-timer, as it is already part of the
DCCP socket.
