dde0a648fc net_sched: sch_fq: avoid touching f->next from fq_gc()
A significant amount of cpu cycles is spent in fq_gc()

When fq_gc() does its lookup in the rb-tree, it needs the
following fields from struct fq_flow :

f->sk       (lookup key in the rb-tree)
f->fq_node  (anchor in the rb-tree)
f->next     (used to determine if the flow is detached)
f->age      (used to determine if the flow is candidate for gc)

This unfortunately spans two cache lines (assuming 64 bytes cache lines)

We can avoid using f->next, if we use the low order bit of f->{age|tail}

This low order bit is 0, if f->tail points to an sk_buff.
We set the low order bit to 1, if the union contains a jiffies value.

Combined with the following patch, this makes sure we only need
to bring into cpu caches one cache line per flow.

583396f4ca net_sched: sch_fq: enable use of hrtimer slack
Add a new attribute to control the fq qdisc hrtimer slack.

Default is set to 10 usec.

When/if packets are throttled, fq set up an hrtimer that can
lead to one interrupt per packet in the throttled queue.

By using a timer slack, we allow better use of timer interrupts,
by giving them a chance to call multiple timer callbacks
at each hardware interrupt.

Also, giving a slack allows FQ to dequeue batches of packets
instead of a single one, thus increasing xmit_more efficiency.

This has no negative effect on the rate a TCP flow can sustain,
since each TCP flow maintains its own precise vtime (tp->tcp_wstamp_ns)

v2: added strict netlink checking (as feedback from Jakub Kicinski)

Tested:
 1000 concurrent flows all using paced packets.
 1,000,000 packets sent per second.

Before the patch :

After the patch, slack of 10 usec, we can see a reduction of interrupts
per second, and a small decrease of reported cpu usage.

d9e15a2733 pkt_sched: fq: do not accept silly TCA_FQ_QUANTUM
As diagnosed by Florian :

If TCA_FQ_QUANTUM is set to 0x80000000, fq_deueue()
can loop forever in :

if (f->credit <= 0) {
  f->credit += q->quantum;
  goto begin;
}

... because f->credit is either 0 or -2147483648.

Let's limit TCA_FQ_QUANTUM to no more than 1 << 20 :
This max value should limit risks of breaking user setups
while fixing this bug.

bb3d0b8bf5 net_sched: sch_fq: properly set sk->sk_pacing_status
If fq_classify() recycles a struct fq_flow because
a socket structure has been reallocated, we do not
set sk->sk_pacing_status immediately, but later if the
flow becomes detached.

This means that any flow requiring pacing (BBR, or SO_MAX_PACING_RATE)
might fallback to TCP internal pacing, which requires a per-socket
high resolution timer, and therefore more cpu cycles.

37c0aead79 net_sched: sch_fq: handle non connected flows
FQ packet scheduler assumed that packets could be classified
based on their owning socket.

This means that if a UDP server uses one UDP socket to send
packets to different destinations, packets all land
in one FQ flow.

This is unfair, since each TCP flow has a unique bucket, meaning
that in case of pressure (fully utilised uplink), TCP flows
have more share of the bandwidth.

If we instead detect unconnected sockets, we can use a stochastic
hash based on the 4-tuple hash.

This also means a QUIC server using one UDP socket will properly
spread the outgoing packets to different buckets, and in-kernel
pacing based on EDT model will no longer risk having big rb-tree on
one flow.

Note that UDP application might provide the skb->hash in an
ancillary message at sendmsg() time to avoid the cost of a dissection
in fq packet scheduler.

eeb84aa0d0 net_sched: sch_fq: do not assume EDT packets are ordered
TCP stack makes sure packets for a given flow are monotically
increasing, but we want to allow UDP packets to use EDT as
well, so that QUIC servers can use in-kernel pacing.

This patch adds a per-flow rb-tree on which packets might
be stored. We still try to use the linear list for the
typical cases where packets are queued with monotically
increasing skb->tstamp, since queue/dequeue packets on
a standard list is O(1).

Note that the ability to store packets in arbitrary EDT
order will allow us to implement later a per TCP socket
mechanism adding delays (with jitter eventually) and reorders,
to implement convenient network emulators.

8cb081746c netlink: make validation more configurable for future strictness
We currently have two levels of strict validation:

 1) liberal (default)
     - undefined (type >= max) & NLA_UNSPEC attributes accepted
     - attribute length >= expected accepted
     - garbage at end of message accepted
 2) strict (opt-in)
     - NLA_UNSPEC attributes accepted
     - attribute length >= expected accepted

Split out parsing strictness into four different options:
 * TRAILING     - check that there's no trailing data after parsing
                  attributes (in message or nested)
 * MAXTYPE      - reject attrs > max known type
 * UNSPEC       - reject attributes with NLA_UNSPEC policy entries
 * STRICT_ATTRS - strictly validate attribute size

The default for future things should be *everything*.
The current *_strict() is a combination of TRAILING and MAXTYPE,
and is renamed to _deprecated_strict().
The current regular parsing has none of this, and is renamed to
*_parse_deprecated().

Additionally it allows us to selectively set one of the new flags
even on old policies. Notably, the UNSPEC flag could be useful in
this case, since it can be arranged (by filling in the policy) to
not be an incompatible userspace ABI change, but would then going
forward prevent forgetting attribute entries. Similar can apply
to the POLICY flag.

We end up with the following renames:
 * nla_parse           -> nla_parse_deprecated
 * nla_parse_strict    -> nla_parse_deprecated_strict
 * nlmsg_parse         -> nlmsg_parse_deprecated
 * nlmsg_parse_strict  -> nlmsg_parse_deprecated_strict
 * nla_parse_nested    -> nla_parse_nested_deprecated
 * nla_validate_nested -> nla_validate_nested_deprecated

Using spatch, of course:

For this patch, don't actually add the strict, non-renamed versions
yet so that it breaks compile if I get it wrong.

Also, while at it, make nla_validate and nla_parse go down to a
common __nla_validate_parse() function to avoid code duplication.

Ultimately, this allows us to have very strict validation for every
new caller of nla_parse()/nlmsg_parse() etc as re-introduced in the
next patch, while existing things will continue to work as is.

In effect then, this adds fully strict validation for any new command.

ae0be8de9a netlink: make nla_nest_start() add NLA_F_NESTED flag
Even if the NLA_F_NESTED flag was introduced more than 11 years ago, most
netlink based interfaces (including recently added ones) are still not
setting it in kernel generated messages. Without the flag, message parsers
not aware of attribute semantics (e.g. wireshark dissector or libmnl's
mnl_nlmsg_fprintf()) cannot recognize nested attributes and won't display
the structure of their contents.

Unfortunately we cannot just add the flag everywhere as there may be
userspace applications which check nlattr::nla_type directly rather than
through a helper masking out the flags. Therefore the patch renames
nla_nest_start() to nla_nest_start_noflag() and introduces nla_nest_start()
as a wrapper adding NLA_F_NESTED. The calls which add NLA_F_NESTED manually
are rewritten to use nla_nest_start().

Except for changes in include/net/netlink.h, the patch was generated using
this semantic patch:

48872c11b7 net_sched: sch_fq: add dctcp-like marking
Similar to 80ba92fa1a ("codel: add ce_threshold attribute")

After EDT adoption, it became easier to implement DCTCP-like CE marking.

In many cases, queues are not building in the network fabric but on
the hosts themselves.

If packets leaving fq missed their Earliest Departure Time by XXX usec,
we mark them with ECN CE. This gives a feedback (after one RTT) to
the sender to slow down and find better operating mode.

Example :

tc qd replace dev eth0 root fq ce_threshold 2.5ms

76a9ebe811 net: extend sk_pacing_rate to unsigned long
sk_pacing_rate has beed introduced as a u32 field in 2013,
effectively limiting per flow pacing to 34Gbit.

We believe it is time to allow TCP to pace high speed flows
on 64bit hosts, as we now can reach 100Gbit on one TCP flow.

This patch adds no cost for 32bit kernels.

The tcpi_pacing_rate and tcpi_max_pacing_rate were already
exported as 64bit, so iproute2/ss command require no changes.

Unfortunately the SO_MAX_PACING_RATE socket option will stay
32bit and we will need to add a new option to let applications
control high pacing rates.

fb420d5d91 tcp/fq: move back to CLOCK_MONOTONIC
In the recent TCP/EDT patch series, I switched TCP and sch_fq
clocks from MONOTONIC to TAI, in order to meet the choice done
earlier for sch_etf packet scheduler.

But sure enough, this broke some setups were the TAI clock
jumps forward (by almost 50 year...), as reported
by Leonard Crestez.

If we want to converge later, we'll probably need to add
an skb field to differentiate the clock bases, or a socket option.

In the meantime, an UDP application will need to use CLOCK_MONOTONIC
base for its SCM_TXTIME timestamps if using fq packet scheduler.

ab408b6dc7 tcp: switch tcp and sch_fq to new earliest departure time model
TCP keeps track of tcp_wstamp_ns by itself, meaning sch_fq
no longer has to do it.

Thanks to this model, TCP can get more accurate RTT samples,
since pacing no longer inflates them.

This has the nice effect of removing some delays caused by FQ
quantum mechanism, causing inflated max/P99 latencies.

Also we might relax TCP Small Queue tight limits in the future,
since this new model allow TCP to build bigger batches, since
sch_fq (or a device with earliest departure time offload) ensure
these packets will be delivered on time.

Note that other protocols are not converted (they will probably
never be) so sch_fq has still support for SO_MAX_PACING_RATE

Tested:

Test showing FQ pacing quantum artifact for low-rate flows,
adding unexpected throttles for RPC flows, inflating max and P99 latencies.

The parameters chosen here are to show what happens typically when
a TCP flow has a reduced pacing rate (this can be caused by a reduced
cwin after few losses, or/and rtt above few ms)

7df40c2673 net_sched: fq: take care of throttled flows before reuse
Normally, a socket can not be freed/reused unless all its TX packets
left qdisc and were TX-completed. However connect(AF_UNSPEC) allows
this to happen.

With commit fc59d5bdf1 ("pkt_sched: fq: clear time_next_packet for
reused flows") we cleared f->time_next_packet but took no special
action if the flow was still in the throttled rb-tree.

Since f->time_next_packet is the key used in the rb-tree searches,
blindly clearing it might break rb-tree integrity. We need to make
sure the flow is no longer in the rb-tree to avoid this problem.

dcda9b0471 mm, tree wide: replace __GFP_REPEAT by __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL with more useful semantic
__GFP_REPEAT was designed to allow retry-but-eventually-fail semantic to
the page allocator.  This has been true but only for allocations
requests larger than PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER.  It has been always
ignored for smaller sizes.  This is a bit unfortunate because there is
no way to express the same semantic for those requests and they are
considered too important to fail so they might end up looping in the
page allocator for ever, similarly to GFP_NOFAIL requests.

Now that the whole tree has been cleaned up and accidental or misled
usage of __GFP_REPEAT flag has been removed for !costly requests we can
give the original flag a better name and more importantly a more useful
semantic.  Let's rename it to __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL which tells the user
that the allocator would try really hard but there is no promise of a
success.  This will work independent of the order and overrides the
default allocator behavior.  Page allocator users have several levels of
guarantee vs.  cost options (take GFP_KERNEL as an example)

 - GFP_KERNEL & ~__GFP_RECLAIM - optimistic allocation without _any_
   attempt to free memory at all. The most light weight mode which even
   doesn't kick the background reclaim. Should be used carefully because
   it might deplete the memory and the next user might hit the more
   aggressive reclaim

 - GFP_KERNEL & ~__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM (or GFP_NOWAIT)- optimistic
   allocation without any attempt to free memory from the current
   context but can wake kswapd to reclaim memory if the zone is below
   the low watermark. Can be used from either atomic contexts or when
   the request is a performance optimization and there is another
   fallback for a slow path.

 - (GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_HIGH) & ~__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM (aka GFP_ATOMIC) -
   non sleeping allocation with an expensive fallback so it can access
   some portion of memory reserves. Usually used from interrupt/bh
   context with an expensive slow path fallback.

 - GFP_KERNEL - both background and direct reclaim are allowed and the
   _default_ page allocator behavior is used. That means that !costly
   allocation requests are basically nofail but there is no guarantee of
   that behavior so failures have to be checked properly by callers
   (e.g. OOM killer victim is allowed to fail currently).

 - GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_NORETRY - overrides the default allocator behavior
   and all allocation requests fail early rather than cause disruptive
   reclaim (one round of reclaim in this implementation). The OOM killer
   is not invoked.

 - GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL - overrides the default allocator
   behavior and all allocation requests try really hard. The request
   will fail if the reclaim cannot make any progress. The OOM killer
   won't be triggered.

 - GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_NOFAIL - overrides the default allocator behavior
   and all allocation requests will loop endlessly until they succeed.
   This might be really dangerous especially for larger orders.

Existing users of __GFP_REPEAT are changed to __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL
because they already had their semantic.  No new users are added.
__alloc_pages_slowpath is changed to bail out for __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL if
there is no progress and we have already passed the OOM point.

This means that all the reclaim opportunities have been exhausted except
the most disruptive one (the OOM killer) and a user defined fallback
behavior is more sensible than keep retrying in the page allocator.

218af599fa tcp: internal implementation for pacing
BBR congestion control depends on pacing, and pacing is
currently handled by sch_fq packet scheduler for performance reasons,
and also because implemening pacing with FQ was convenient to truly
avoid bursts.

However there are many cases where this packet scheduler constraint
is not practical.
- Many linux hosts are not focusing on handling thousands of TCP
  flows in the most efficient way.
- Some routers use fq_codel or other AQM, but still would like
  to use BBR for the few TCP flows they initiate/terminate.

This patch implements an automatic fallback to internal pacing.

Pacing is requested either by BBR or use of SO_MAX_PACING_RATE option.

If sch_fq happens to be in the egress path, pacing is delegated to
the qdisc, otherwise pacing is done by TCP itself.

One advantage of pacing from TCP stack is to get more precise rtt
estimations, and less work done from TX completion, since TCP Small
queue limits are not generally hit. Setups with single TX queue but
many cpus might even benefit from this.

Note that unlike sch_fq, we do not take into account header sizes.
Taking care of these headers would add additional complexity for
no practical differences in behavior.

Some performance numbers using 800 TCP_STREAM flows rate limited to
~48 Mbit per second on 40Gbit NIC.

If MQ+pfifo_fast is used on the NIC :

da6bc57a8f net: use kvmalloc with __GFP_REPEAT rather than open coded variant
fq_alloc_node, alloc_netdev_mqs and netif_alloc* open code kmalloc with
vmalloc fallback.  Use the kvmalloc variant instead.  Keep the
__GFP_REPEAT flag based on explanation from Eric:

 "At the time, tests on the hardware I had in my labs showed that
  vmalloc() could deliver pages spread all over the memory and that was
  a small penalty (once memory is fragmented enough, not at boot time)"

The way how the code is constructed means, however, that we prefer to go
and hit the OOM killer before we fall back to the vmalloc for requests
<=32kB (with 4kB pages) in the current code.  This is rather disruptive
for something that can be achived with the fallback.  On the other hand
__GFP_REPEAT doesn't have any useful semantic for these requests.  So
the effect of this patch is that requests which fit into 32kB will fall
back to vmalloc easier now.

fefa569a9d net_sched: sch_fq: account for schedule/timers drifts
It looks like the following patch can make FQ very precise, even in VM
or stressed hosts. It matters at high pacing rates.

We take into account the difference between the time that was programmed
when last packet was sent, and current time (a drift of tens of usecs is
often observed)

Add an EWMA of the unthrottle latency to help diagnostics.

This latency is the difference between current time and oldest packet in
delayed RB-tree. This accounts for the high resolution timer latency,
but can be different under stress, as fq_check_throttled() can be
opportunistically be called from a dequeue() called after an enqueue()
for a different flow.

Tested:
// Start a 10Gbit flow
$ netperf --google-pacing-rate 1250000000 -H lpaa24 -l 10000 -- -K bbr &

Before patch :
$ sar -n DEV 10 5 | grep eth0 | grep Average

77879147a3 net_sched: sch_fq: add low_rate_threshold parameter
This commit adds to the fq module a low_rate_threshold parameter to
insert a delay after all packets if the socket requests a pacing rate
below the threshold.

This helps achieve more precise control of the sending rate with
low-rate paths, especially policers. The basic issue is that if a
congestion control module detects a policer at a certain rate, it may
want fq to be able to shape to that policed rate. That way the sender
can avoid policer drops by having the packets arrive at the policer at
or just under the policed rate.

The default threshold of 550Kbps was chosen analytically so that for
policers or links at 500Kbps or 512Kbps fq would very likely invoke
this mechanism, even if the pacing rate was briefly slightly above the
available bandwidth. This value was then empirically validated with
two years of production testing on YouTube video servers.

520ac30f45 net_sched: drop packets after root qdisc lock is released
Qdisc performance suffers when packets are dropped at enqueue()
time because drops (kfree_skb()) are done while qdisc lock is held,
delaying a dequeue() draining the queue.

Nominal throughput can be reduced by 50 % when this happens,
at a time we would like the dequeue() to proceed as fast as possible.

Even FQ is vulnerable to this problem, while one of FQ goals was
to provide some flow isolation.

This patch adds a 'struct sk_buff **to_free' parameter to all
qdisc->enqueue(), and in qdisc_drop() helper.

I measured a performance increase of up to 12 %, but this patch
is a prereq so that future batches in enqueue() can fly.

45f50bed1d net_sched: remove generic throttled management
__QDISC_STATE_THROTTLED bit manipulation is rather expensive
for HTB and few others.

I already removed it for sch_fq in commit f2600cf02b
("net: sched: avoid costly atomic operation in fq_dequeue()")
and so far nobody complained.

When one ore more packets are stuck in one or more throttled
HTB class, a htb dequeue() performs two atomic operations
to clear/set __QDISC_STATE_THROTTLED bit, while root qdisc
lock is held.

Removing this pair of atomic operations bring me a 8 % performance
increase on 200 TCP_RR tests, in presence of throttled classes.

This patch has no side effect, since nothing actually uses
disc_is_throttled() anymore.

2ccccf5fb4 net_sched: update hierarchical backlog too
When the bottom qdisc decides to, for example, drop some packet,
it calls qdisc_tree_decrease_qlen() to update the queue length
for all its ancestors, we need to update the backlog too to
keep the stats on root qdisc accurate.

e446f9dfe1 net: synack packets can be attached to request sockets
selinux needs few changes to accommodate fact that SYNACK messages
can be attached to a request socket, lacking sk_security pointer

(Only syncookies are still attached to a TCP_LISTEN socket)

Adds a new sk_listener() helper, and use it in selinux and sch_fq

ca6fb06518 tcp: attach SYNACK messages to request sockets instead of listener
If a listen backlog is very big (to avoid syncookies), then
the listener sk->sk_wmem_alloc is the main source of false
sharing, as we need to touch it twice per SYNACK re-transmit
and TX completion.

(One SYN packet takes listener lock once, but up to 6 SYNACK
are generated)

By attaching the skb to the request socket, we remove this
source of contention.

Tested:

 listen(fd, 10485760); // single listener (no SO_REUSEPORT)
 16 RX/TX queue NIC
 Sustain a SYNFLOOD attack of ~320,000 SYN per second,
 Sending ~1,400,000 SYNACK per second.
 Perf profiles now show listener spinlock being next bottleneck.

Conflicts:
	drivers/net/vxlan.c
	drivers/vhost/net.c
	include/linux/if_vlan.h
	net/core/dev.c

The net/core/dev.c conflict was the overlap of one commit marking an
existing function static whilst another was adding a new function.

In the include/linux/if_vlan.h case, the type used for a local
variable was changed in 'net', whereas the function got rewritten
to fix a stacked vlan bug in 'net-next'.

In drivers/vhost/net.c, Al Viro's iov_iter conversions in 'net-next'
overlapped with an endainness fix for VHOST 1.0 in 'net'.

In drivers/net/vxlan.c, vxlan_find_vni() added a 'flags' parameter
in 'net-next' whereas in 'net' there was a bug fix to pass in the
correct network namespace pointer in calls to this function.

06eb395fa9 pkt_sched: fq: better control of DDOS traffic
FQ has a fast path for skb attached to a socket, as it does not
have to compute a flow hash. But for other packets, FQ being non
stochastic means that hosts exposed to random Internet traffic
can allocate million of flows structure (104 bytes each) pretty
easily. Not only host can OOM, but lookup in RB trees can take
too much cpu and memory resources.

This patch adds a new attribute, orphan_mask, that is adding
possibility of having a stochastic hash for orphaned skb.

Its default value is 1024 slots, to mimic SFQ behavior.

Note: This does not apply to locally generated TCP traffic,
and no locally generated traffic will share a flow structure
with another perfect or stochastic flow.

This patch also handles the specific case of SYNACK messages:

They are attached to the listener socket, and therefore all map
to a single hash bucket. If listener have set SO_MAX_PACING_RATE,
hoping to have new accepted socket inherit this rate, SYNACK
might be paced and even dropped.

This is very similar to an internal patch Google have used more
than one year.

9878196578 tcp: do not pace pure ack packets
When we added pacing to TCP, we decided to let sch_fq take care
of actual pacing.

All TCP had to do was to compute sk->pacing_rate using simple formula:

sk->pacing_rate = 2 * cwnd * mss / rtt

It works well for senders (bulk flows), but not very well for receivers
or even RPC :

cwnd on the receiver can be less than 10, rtt can be around 100ms, so we
can end up pacing ACK packets, slowing down the sender.

Really, only the sender should pace, according to its own logic.

Instead of adding a new bit in skb, or call yet another flow
dissection, we tweak skb->truesize to a small value (2), and
we instruct sch_fq to use new helper and not pace pure ack.

Note this also helps TCP small queue, as ack packets present
in qdisc/NIC do not prevent sending a data packet (RPC workload)

This helps to reduce tx completion overhead, ack packets can use regular
sock_wfree() instead of tcp_wfree() which is a bit more expensive.

This has no impact in the case packets are sent to loopback interface,
as we do not coalesce ack packets (were we would detect skb->truesize
lie)

In case netem (with a delay) is used, skb_orphan_partial() also sets
skb->truesize to 1.

This patch is a combination of two patches we used for about one year at
Google.

We can safely remove a test in sch_fq and save one cache line miss,
as sk_state is far away from sk_pacing_rate.

ced7a04e39 pkt_sched: fq: increase max delay from 125 ms to one second
FQ/pacing has a clamp of delay of 125 ms, to avoid some possible harm.

It turns out this delay is too small to allow pacing low rates :
Some ISP setup very aggressive policers as low as 16kbit.

Now TCP stack has spurious rtx prevention, it seems safe to increase
this fixed parameter, without adding a qdisc attribute.

f2600cf02b net: sched: avoid costly atomic operation in fq_dequeue()
Standard qdisc API to setup a timer implies an atomic operation on every
packet dequeue : qdisc_unthrottled()

It turns out this is not really needed for FQ, as FQ has no concept of
global qdisc throttling, being a qdisc handling many different flows,
some of them can be throttled, while others are not.

Fix is straightforward : add a 'bool throttle' to
qdisc_watchdog_schedule_ns(), and remove calls to qdisc_unthrottled()
in sch_fq.
