Only when ICMP packets are enqueued onto the error queue,
sk_err is also set. Before f5f99309fa (sock: do not set sk_err
in sock_dequeue_err_skb), a subsequent error queue read
would set sk_err to the next error on the queue, or 0 if empty.
As no error types other than ICMP set this field, sk_err should
not be modified upon dequeuing them.
Only for ICMP errors, reset the (racy) sk_err. Some applications,
like traceroute, rely on it and go into a futile busy POLLERR
loop otherwise.
In principle, sk_err has to be set while an ICMP error is queued.
Testing is_icmp_err_skb(skb_next) approximates this without
requiring a full queue walk. Applications that receive both ICMP
and other errors cannot rely on this legacy behavior, as other
errors do not set sk_err in the first place.

This patch exports the sender chronograph stats via the socket
SO_TIMESTAMPING channel. Currently we can instrument how long a
particular application unit of data was queued in TCP by tracking
SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_SOFTWARE and SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_SCHED. Having
these sender chronograph stats exported simultaneously along with
these timestamps allow further breaking down the various sender
limitation. For example, a video server can tell if a particular
chunk of video on a connection takes a long time to deliver because
TCP was experiencing small receive window. It is not possible to
tell before this patch without packet traces.
To prepare these stats, the user needs to set
SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_STATS and SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_TSONLY flags
while requesting other SOF_TIMESTAMPING TX timestamps. When the
timestamps are available in the error queue, the stats are returned
in a separate control message of type SCM_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_STATS,
in a list of TLVs (struct nlattr) of types: TCP_NLA_BUSY_TIME,
TCP_NLA_RWND_LIMITED, TCP_NLA_SNDBUF_LIMITED. Unit is microsecond.

Do not set sk_err when dequeuing errors from the error queue.
Doing so results in:
a) Bugs: By overwriting existing sk_err values, it possibly
hides legitimate errors. It is also incorrect when local
errors are queued with ip_local_error. That happens in the
context of a system call, which already returns the error
code.
b) Inconsistent behavior: When there are pending errors on
the error queue, sk_err is sometimes 0 (e.g., for
the first timestamp on the error queue) and sometimes
set to an error code (after dequeuing the first
timestamp).
c) Suboptimality: Setting sk_err to ENOMSG on simple
TX timestamps can abort parallel reads and writes.
Removing this line doesn't break userspace. This is because
userspace code cannot rely on sk_err for detecting whether
there is something on the error queue. Except for ICMP messages
received for UDP and RAW, sk_err is not set at enqueue time,
and as a result sk_err can be 0 while there are plenty of
errors on the error queue.
For ICMP packets in UDP and RAW, sk_err is set when they are
enqueued on the error queue, but that does not result in aborting
reads and writes. For such cases, sk_err is only readable via
getsockopt(SO_ERROR) which will reset the value of sk_err on
its own. More importantly, prior to this patch,
recvmsg(MSG_ERRQUEUE) has a race on setting sk_err (i.e.,
sk_err is set by sock_dequeue_err_skb without atomic ops or
locks) which can store 0 in sk_err even when we have ICMP
messages pending. Removing this line from sock_dequeue_err_skb
eliminates that race.

consistent treatment of EFAULT on O_DIRECT read/write
skb_vlan_pop/push were too generic, trying to support the cases where
skb->data is at mac header, and cases where skb->data is arbitrarily
elsewhere.
Supporting an arbitrary skb->data was complex and bogus:
- It failed to unwind skb->data to its original location post actual
pop/push.
(Also, semantic is not well defined for unwinding: If data was into
the eth header, need to use same offset from start; But if data was
at network header or beyond, need to adjust the original offset
according to the push/pull)
- It mangled the rcsum post actual push/pop, without taking into account
that the eth bytes might already have been pulled out of the csum.
Most callers (ovs, bpf) already had their skb->data at mac_header upon
invoking skb_vlan_pop/push.
Last caller that failed to do so (act_vlan) has been recently fixed.
Therefore, to simplify things, no longer support arbitrary skb->data
inputs for skb_vlan_pop/push().
skb->data is expected to be exactly at mac_header; WARN otherwise.

In 93515d53b1
"net: move vlan pop/push functions into common code"
skb_vlan_pop was moved from its private location in openvswitch to
skbuff common code.
In case skb has non hw-accel vlan tag, the original 'pop_vlan()' assured
that skb->len is sufficient (if skb->len < VLAN_ETH_HLEN then pop was
considered a no-op).
This validation was moved as is into the new common 'skb_vlan_pop'.
Alas, in its original location (openvswitch), there was a guarantee that
'data' points to the mac_header, therefore the 'skb->len < VLAN_ETH_HLEN'
condition made sense.
However there's no such guarantee in the generic 'skb_vlan_pop'.
For short packets received in rx path going through 'skb_vlan_pop',
this causes 'skb_vlan_pop' to fail pop-ing a valid vlan hdr (in the non
hw-accel case) or to fail moving next tag into hw-accel tag.
Remove the 'skb->len < VLAN_ETH_HLEN' condition entirely:
It is superfluous since inner '__skb_vlan_pop' already verifies there
are VLAN_ETH_HLEN writable bytes at the mac_header.
Note this presents a slight change to skb_vlan_pop() users:
In case total length is smaller than VLAN_ETH_HLEN, skb_vlan_pop() now
returns an error, as opposed to previous "no-op" behavior.
Existing callers (e.g. tc act vlan, ovs) usually drop the packet if
'skb_vlan_pop' fails.

Over the years, TCP BDP has increased by several orders of magnitude,
and some people are considering to reach the 2 Gbytes limit.
Even with current window scale limit of 14, ~1 Gbytes maps to ~740,000
MSS.
In presence of packet losses (or reorders), TCP stores incoming packets
into an out of order queue, and number of skbs sitting there waiting for
the missing packets to be received can be in the 10^5 range.
Most packets are appended to the tail of this queue, and when
packets can finally be transferred to receive queue, we scan the queue
from its head.
However, in presence of heavy losses, we might have to find an arbitrary
point in this queue, involving a linear scan for every incoming packet,
throwing away cpu caches.
This patch converts it to a RB tree, to get bounded latencies.
Yaogong wrote a preliminary patch about 2 years ago.
Eric did the rebase, added ofo_last_skb cache, polishing and tests.
Tested with network dropping between 1 and 10 % packets, with good
success (about 30 % increase of throughput in stress tests)
Next step would be to also use an RB tree for the write queue at sender
side ;)

SCTP has this pecualiarity that its packets cannot be just segmented to
(P)MTU. Its chunks must be contained in IP segments, padding respected.
So we can't just generate a big skb, set gso_size to the fragmentation
point and deliver it to IP layer.
This patch takes a different approach. SCTP will now build a skb as it
would be if it was received using GRO. That is, there will be a cover
skb with protocol headers and children ones containing the actual
segments, already segmented to a way that respects SCTP RFCs.
With that, we can tell skb_segment() to just split based on frag_list,
trusting its sizes are already in accordance.
This way SCTP can benefit from GSO and instead of passing several
packets through the stack, it can pass a single large packet.
v2:
- Added support for receiving GSO frames, as requested by Dave Miller.
- Clear skb->cb if packet is GSO (otherwise it's not used by SCTP)
- Added heuristics similar to what we have in TCP for not generating
single GSO packets that fills cwnd.
v3:
- consider sctphdr size in skb_gso_transport_seglen()
- rebased due to 5c7cdf339a ("gso: Remove arbitrary checks for

A pattern of skb usage seen in modules such as RDS-TCP is to
extract `to_copy' bytes from the received TCP segment, starting
at some offset `off' into a new skb `clone'. This is done in
the ->data_ready callback, where the clone skb is queued up for rx on
the PF_RDS socket, while the parent TCP segment is returned unchanged
back to the TCP engine.
The existing code uses the sequence
clone = skb_clone(..);
pskb_pull(clone, off, ..);
pskb_trim(clone, to_copy, ..);
with the intention of discarding the first `off' bytes. However,
skb_clone() + pskb_pull() implies pksb_expand_head(), which ends
up doing a redundant memcpy of bytes that will then get discarded
in __pskb_pull_tail().
To avoid this inefficiency, this commit adds pskb_extract() that
creates the clone, and memcpy's only the relevant header/frag/frag_list
to the start of `clone'. pskb_trim() is then invoked to trim clone
down to the requested to_copy bytes.

When __vlan_insert_tag() fails from skb_vlan_push() path due to the

as well that was done earlier to move skb->data pointer to mac header.
Moreover, I noticed that when in the non-error path the __skb_pull()
is done and the original offset to mac header was non-zero, we fixup
from a wrong skb->data offset in the checksum complete processing.
So the skb_postpush_rcsum() really needs to be done before __skb_pull()
where skb->data still points to the mac header start and thus operates
under the same conditions as in __vlan_insert_tag().

This patch adds support for something I am referring to as GSO partial.
The basic idea is that we can support a broader range of devices for
segmentation if we use fixed outer headers and have the hardware only
really deal with segmenting the inner header. The idea behind the naming
is due to the fact that everything before csum_start will be fixed headers,
and everything after will be the region that is handled by hardware.
With the current implementation it allows us to add support for the
following GSO types with an inner TSO_MANGLEID or TSO6 offload:
NETIF_F_GSO_GRE
NETIF_F_GSO_GRE_CSUM
NETIF_F_GSO_IPIP
NETIF_F_GSO_SIT
NETIF_F_UDP_TUNNEL
NETIF_F_UDP_TUNNEL_CSUM
In the case of hardware that already supports tunneling we may be able to
extend this further to support TSO_TCPV4 without TSO_MANGLEID if the
hardware can support updating inner IPv4 headers.

The network stack defers SKBs free, in-case free happens in IRQ or

writes SKBs that were free'ed during IRQ to the softirq completion
queue (softnet_data.completion_queue).
These SKBs are naturally delayed, and cleaned up during NET_TX_SOFTIRQ
in function net_tx_action(). Take advantage of this a use the skb
defer and flush API, as we are already in softirq context.
For modern drivers this rarely happens. Although most drivers do call

Discovered that network stack were hitting the kmem_cache/SLUB
slowpath when freeing SKBs. Doing bulk free with kmem_cache_free_bulk
can speedup this slowpath.
NAPI context is a bit special, lets take advantage of that for bulk
free'ing SKBs.
In NAPI context we are running in softirq, which gives us certain
protection. A softirq can run on several CPUs at once. BUT the
important part is a softirq will never preempt another softirq running
on the same CPU. This gives us the opportunity to access per-cpu
variables in softirq context.
Extend napi_alloc_cache (before only contained page_frag_cache) to be
a struct with a small array based stack for holding SKBs. Introduce a
SKB defer and flush API for accessing this.
Introduce napi_consume_skb() as replacement for e.g. dev_consume_skb_any()
when running in NAPI context. A small trick to handle/detect if we
are called from netpoll is to see if budget is 0. In that case, we
need to invoke dev_consume_skb_irq().

The call skb_has_shared_frag is used in the GRE path and skb_checksum_help
to verify that no frags can be modified by an external entity. This check
really doesn't belong in the GRE path but in the skb_segment function
itself. This way any protocol that might be segmented will be performing
this check before attempting to offload a checksum to software.

This patch addresses two main issues.
First in the case of remote checksum offload we were avoiding dealing with
scatter-gather issues. As a result it would be possible to assemble a
series of frames that used frags instead of being linearized as they should
have if remote checksum offload was enabled.
Second I have updated the code so that we now let GSO take care of doing
the checksum on the data itself and drop the special case that was added
for remote checksum offload.

This patch moves the checksum maintained by GSO out of skb->csum and into
the GSO context block in order to allow for us to work on outer checksums
while maintaining the inner checksum offsets in the case of the inner
checksum being offloaded, while the outer checksums will be computed.
While updating the code I also did a minor cleanu-up on gso_make_checksum.
The change is mostly to make it so that we store the values and compute the
checksum instead of computing the checksum and then storing the values we
needed to update.

Devices may have limits on the number of fragments in an skb they support.
Current codebase uses a constant as maximum for number of fragments one
skb can hold and use.
When enabling scatter/gather and running traffic with many small messages
the codebase uses the maximum number of fragments and may thereby violate
the max for certain devices.
The patch introduces a global variable as max number of fragments.

This is because we mistake a raw socket as a tcp socket.
We should check both sk->sk_type and sk->sk_protocol to ensure
it is a tcp socket.
Willem points out __skb_complete_tx_timestamp() needs to fix as well.

skb_reorder_vlan_header is called after the vlan header has
been pulled. As a result the offset of the begining of
the mac header has been incrased by 4 bytes (VLAN_HLEN).
When moving the mac addresses, include this incrase in
the offset calcualation so that the mac addresses are
copied correctly.

When we have multiple stacked vlan devices all of which have
turned off REORDER_HEADER flag, the untag operation does not
locate the ethernet addresses correctly for nested vlans.
The reason is that in case of REORDER_HEADER flag being off,
the outer vlan headers are put back and the mac_len is adjusted
to account for the presense of the header. Then, the subsequent
untag operation, for the next level vlan, always use VLAN_ETH_HLEN
to locate the begining of the ethernet header and that ends up
being a multiple of 4 bytes short of the actuall beginning
of the mac header (the multiple depending on the how many vlan
encapsulations ethere are).
As a reslult, if there are multiple levles of vlan devices
with REODER_HEADER being off, the recevied packets end up
being dropped.
To solve this, we use skb->mac_len as the offset. The value
is always set on receive path and starts out as a ETH_HLEN.
The value is also updated when the vlan header manupations occur
so we know it will be correct.

__GFP_WAIT has been used to identify atomic context in callers that hold
spinlocks or are in interrupts. They are expected to be high priority and
have access one of two watermarks lower than "min" which can be referred
to as the "atomic reserve". __GFP_HIGH users get access to the first
lower watermark and can be called the "high priority reserve".
Over time, callers had a requirement to not block when fallback options
were available. Some have abused __GFP_WAIT leading to a situation where
an optimisitic allocation with a fallback option can access atomic
reserves.
This patch uses __GFP_ATOMIC to identify callers that are truely atomic,
cannot sleep and have no alternative. High priority users continue to use
__GFP_HIGH. __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM identifies callers that can sleep and
are willing to enter direct reclaim. __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM to identify
callers that want to wake kswapd for background reclaim. __GFP_WAIT is
redefined as a caller that is willing to enter direct reclaim and wake
kswapd for background reclaim.
This patch then converts a number of sites
o __GFP_ATOMIC is used by callers that are high priority and have memory
pools for those requests. GFP_ATOMIC uses this flag.
o Callers that have a limited mempool to guarantee forward progress clear
__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM but keep __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. bio allocations fall
into this category where kswapd will still be woken but atomic reserves
are not used as there is a one-entry mempool to guarantee progress.
o Callers that are checking if they are non-blocking should use the
helper gfpflags_allow_blocking() where possible. This is because
checking for __GFP_WAIT as was done historically now can trigger false
positives. Some exceptions like dm-crypt.c exist where the code intent
is clearer if __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM is used instead of the helper due to
flag manipulations.
o Callers that built their own GFP flags instead of starting with GFP_KERNEL
and friends now also need to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM.
The first key hazard to watch out for is callers that removed __GFP_WAIT
and was depending on access to atomic reserves for inconspicuous reasons.
In some cases it may be appropriate for them to use __GFP_HIGH.
The second key hazard is callers that assembled their own combination of
GFP flags instead of starting with something like GFP_KERNEL. They may
now wish to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. It's almost certainly harmless
if it's missed in most cases as other activity will wake kswapd.

Earlier patch 6ae459bda tried to detect void ckecksum partial
skb by comparing pull length to checksum offset. But it does
not work for all cases since checksum-offset depends on
updates to skb->data.
Following patch fixes it by validating checksum start offset
after skb-data pointer is updated. Negative value of checksum
offset start means there is no need to checksum.

Commit c48a11c7ad ("netvm: propagate page->pfmemalloc to skb") added
checks for page->pfmemalloc to __skb_fill_page_desc():
if (page->pfmemalloc && !page->mapping)
skb->pfmemalloc = true;
It assumes page->mapping == NULL implies that page->pfmemalloc can be
trusted. However, __delete_from_page_cache() can set set page->mapping
to NULL and leave page->index value alone. Due to being in union, a
non-zero page->index will be interpreted as true page->pfmemalloc.
So the assumption is invalid if the networking code can see such a page.
And it seems it can. We have encountered this with a NFS over loopback
setup when such a page is attached to a new skbuf. There is no copying
going on in this case so the page confuses __skb_fill_page_desc which
interprets the index as pfmemalloc flag and the network stack drops
packets that have been allocated using the reserves unless they are to
be queued on sockets handling the swapping which is the case here and
that leads to hangs when the nfs client waits for a response from the
server which has been dropped and thus never arrive.
The struct page is already heavily packed so rather than finding another
hole to put it in, let's do a trick instead. We can reuse the index
again but define it to an impossible value (-1UL). This is the page
index so it should never see the value that large. Replace all direct
users of page->pfmemalloc by page_is_pfmemalloc which will hide this
nastiness from unspoiled eyes.
The information will get lost if somebody wants to use page->index
obviously but that was the case before and the original code expected
that the information should be persisted somewhere else if that is
really needed (e.g. what SLAB and SLUB do).
