net: tcp: fix unexcepted socket die when snd_wnd is 0

2023-09-13T07:48:04Z

[ Upstream commit e89688e3e97868451a5d05b38a9d2633d6785cd4 ] In tcp_retransmit_timer(), a window shrunk connection will be regarded as timeout if 'tcp_jiffies32 - tp->rcv_tstamp > TCP_RTO_MAX'. This is not right all the time. The retransmits will become zero-window probes in tcp_retransmit_timer() if the 'snd_wnd==0'. Therefore, the icsk->icsk_rto will come up to TCP_RTO_MAX sooner or later. However, the timer can be delayed and be triggered after 122877ms, not TCP_RTO_MAX, as I tested. Therefore, 'tcp_jiffies32 - tp->rcv_tstamp > TCP_RTO_MAX' is always true once the RTO come up to TCP_RTO_MAX, and the socket will die. Fix this by replacing the 'tcp_jiffies32' with '(u32)icsk->icsk_timeout', which is exact the timestamp of the timeout. However, "tp->rcv_tstamp" can restart from idle, then tp->rcv_tstamp could already be a long time (minutes or hours) in the past even on the first RTO. So we double check the timeout with the duration of the retransmission. Meanwhile, making "2 * TCP_RTO_MAX" as the timeout to avoid the socket dying too soon.

net: fix the RTO timer retransmitting skb every 1ms if linear option is enabled

2023-08-23T15:32:56Z

commit e4dd0d3a2f64b8bd8029ec70f52bdbebd0644408 upstream. In the real workload, I encountered an issue which could cause the RTO timer to retransmit the skb per 1ms with linear option enabled. The amount of lost-retransmitted skbs can go up to 1000+ instantly. The root cause is that if the icsk_rto happens to be zero in the 6th round (which is the TCP_THIN_LINEAR_RETRIES value), then it will always be zero due to the changed calculation method in tcp_retransmit_timer() as follows: icsk->icsk_rto = min(icsk->icsk_rto << 1, TCP_RTO_MAX); Above line could be converted to icsk->icsk_rto = min(0 << 1, TCP_RTO_MAX) = 0 Therefore, the timer expires so quickly without any doubt. I read through the RFC 6298 and found that the RTO value can be rounded up to a certain value, in Linux, say TCP_RTO_MIN as default, which is regarded as the lower bound in this patch as suggested by Eric.

tcp: fix mishandling when the sack compression is deferred.

2023-06-01T11:15:12Z

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.

tcp: Make SYN ACK RTO tunable by BPF programs with TFO

2022-08-17T09:19:22Z

Instead of the hardcoded TCP_TIMEOUT_INIT, this diff calls tcp_timeout_init to initiate req->timeout like the non TFO SYN ACK case. Tested using the following packetdrill script, on a host with a BPF program that sets the initial connect timeout to 10ms. `../../common/defaults.sh` // Initialize connection 0 socket(..., SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_TCP) = 3 +0 setsockopt(3, SOL_TCP, TCP_FASTOPEN, [1], 4) = 0 +0 bind(3, ..., ...) = 0 +0 listen(3, 1) = 0 +0 < S 0:0(0) win 32792 +0 > S. 0:0(0) ack 1 +.01 > S. 0:0(0) ack 1 +.02 > S. 0:0(0) ack 1 +.04 > S. 0:0(0) ack 1 +.01 < . 1:1(0) ack 1 win 32792 +0 accept(3, ..., ...) = 4 Signed-off-by: Jie Meng Acked-by: Neal Cardwell Acked-by: Yuchung Cheng Acked-by: Martin KaFai Lau Signed-off-by: David S.
