tcp: ensure to use the most recently sent skb when filling the rate sample

2022-04-22T22:20:47Z

If an ACK (s)acks multiple skbs, we favor the information from the most recently sent skb by choosing the skb with the highest prior_delivered count. But in the interval between receiving ACKs, we send multiple skbs with the same prior_delivered, because the tp->delivered only changes when we receive an ACK. We used RACK's solution, copying tcp_rack_sent_after() as tcp_skb_sent_after() helper to determine "which packet was sent last?". Later, we will use tcp_skb_sent_after() instead in RACK.

tcp: add accessors to read/set tp->snd_cwnd

2022-04-06T19:05:41Z

We had various bugs over the years with code breaking the assumption that tp->snd_cwnd is greater than zero. Lately, syzbot reported the WARN_ON_ONCE(!tp->prior_cwnd) added in commit 8b8a321ff72c ("tcp: fix zero cwnd in tcp_cwnd_reduction") can trigger, and without a repro we would have to spend considerable time finding the bug. Instead of complaining too late, we want to catch where and when tp->snd_cwnd is set to an illegal value.

tcp: tracking packets with CE marks in BW rate sample

2021-09-24T13:16:40Z

In order to track CE marks per rate sample (one round trip), TCP needs a per-skb header field to record the tp->delivered_ce count when the skb was sent. To make space, we replace the "last_in_flight" field which is used exclusively for NV congestion control. The stat needed by NV can be alternatively approximated by existing stats tcp_sock delivered and mss_cache. This patch counts the number of packets delivered which have CE marks in the rate sample, using similar approach of delivery accounting.

tcp: introduce tcp_skb_timestamp_us() helper

2018-09-22T02:37:59Z

There are few places where TCP reads skb->skb_mstamp expecting a value in usec unit. skb->tstamp (aka skb->skb_mstamp) will soon store CLOCK_TAI nsec value. Add tcp_skb_timestamp_us() to provide proper conversion when needed. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

tcp: expose both send and receive intervals for rate sample

2018-07-12T06:01:56Z

Congestion control algorithms, which access the rate sample through the tcp_cong_control function, only have access to the maximum of the send and receive interval, for cases where the acknowledgment rate may be inaccurate due to ACK compression or decimation. Algorithms may want to use send rates and receive rates as separate signals. Signed-off-by: Deepti Raghavan Acked-by: Neal Cardwell Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

tcp: invalidate rate samples during SACK reneging

2017-12-08T15:07:02Z

Mark tcp_sock during a SACK reneging event and invalidate rate samples while marked. Such rate samples may overestimate bw by including packets that were SACKed before reneging. < ack 6001 win 10000 sack 7001:38001 < ack 7001 win 0 sack 8001:38001 // Reneg detected > seq 7001:8001 // RTO, SACK cleared. < ack 38001 win 10000 In above example the rate sample taken after the last ack will count 7001-38001 as delivered while the actual delivery rate likely could be much lower i.e. 7001-8001. This patch adds a new field tcp_sock.sack_reneg and marks it when we declare SACK reneging and entering TCP_CA_Loss, and unmarks it after the last rate sample was taken before moving back to TCP_CA_Open. This patch also invalidates rate samples taken while tcp_sock.is_sack_reneg is set.

Export do_tcp_sendpages and tcp_rate_check_app_limited, since tls will need to sendpages while the socket is already locked. tcp_sendpage is exported, but requires the socket lock to not be held already.

tcp: switch TCP TS option (RFC 7323) to 1ms clock

2017-05-17T20:06:01Z

TCP Timestamps option is defined in RFC 7323 Traditionally on linux, it has been tied to the internal 'jiffies' variable, because it had been a cheap and good enough generator. For TCP flows on the Internet, 1 ms resolution would be much better than 4ms or 10ms (HZ=250 or HZ=100 respectively) For TCP flows in the DC, Google has used usec resolution for more than two years with great success [1] Receive size autotuning (DRS) is indeed more precise and converges faster to optimal window size. This patch converts tp->tcp_mstamp to a plain u64 value storing a 1 usec TCP clock. This choice will allow us to upstream the 1 usec TS option as discussed in IETF 97.
