This patch implements the receive side to support RFC 6438 which is to
use the flow label as an ECMP hash. If an IPv6 flow label is set
in a packet we can use this as input for computing an L4-hash. There
should be no need to parse any transport headers in this case.

For a connected socket we can precompute the flow hash for setting
in skb->hash on output. This is a performance advantage over
calculating the skb->hash for every packet on the connection. The
computation is done using the common hash algorithm to be consistent
with computations done for packets of the connection in other states
where thers is no socket (e.g. time-wait, syn-recv, syn-cookies).
This patch adds sk_txhash to the sock structure. inet_set_txhash and
ip6_set_txhash functions are added which are called from points in
TCP and UDP where socket moves to established state.
skb_set_hash_from_sk is a function which sets skb->hash from the
sock txhash value. This is called in UDP and TCP transmit path when
transmitting within the context of a socket.
Tested: ran super_netperf with 200 TCP_RR streams over a vxlan
interface (in this case skb_get_hash called on every TX packet to
create a UDP source port).

Link state acks triggered from the receive path is done before
the last received packet have been processed by the link layer.
The effect of this is that the last received packet will not be
included in the ack. This causes problems if the link window is
set to TIPC_MIN_LINK_WIN, where the ack interval will be equal to
the link tolerance, and the link enters a stop-and-go behavior.
We move the ack logic to after link state processing, just before
the packet is delivered to higher layers.

Always store in snt_synack the time at which the server received the

Recent commit aa27fc501 ("tcp: tcp_v[46]_conn_request: fix snt_synack

the initialization of snt_synack. This commit brings back the idea
from 843f4a55e (tcp: use tcp_v4_send_synack on first SYN-ACK), which
was going for the original behavior of snt_synack from the commit
where it was added in 9ad7c049f0 ("tcp: RFC2988bis + taking RTT
sample from 3WHS for the passive open side") in v3.1.
In addition to being simpler (and probably a tiny bit faster),
unconditionally storing the time of the first SYNACK attempt has been
useful because it allows calculating a performance metric quantifying
how long it took to establish a passive TCP connection.

RFC4960, section 8.3 says:
On an idle destination address that is allowed to heartbeat,
it is recommended that a HEARTBEAT chunk is sent once per RTO
of that destination address plus the protocol parameter
'HB.interval', with jittering of +/- 50% of the RTO value,
and exponential backoff of the RTO if the previous HEARTBEAT
is unanswered.
Currently, we calculate jitter via sctp_jitter() function first,
and then add its result to the current RTO for the new timeout:
TMO = RTO + (RAND() % RTO) - (RTO / 2)
`------------------------^-=> sctp_jitter()
Instead, we can just simplify all this by directly calculating:
TMO = (RTO / 2) + (RAND() % RTO)
With the help of prandom_u32_max(), we don't need to open code
our own global PRNG, but can instead just make use of the per
CPU implementation of prandom with better quality numbers. Also,
we can now spare us the conditional for divide by zero check
since no div or mod operation needs to be used. Note that
prandom_u32_max() won't emit the same result as a mod operation,
but we really don't care here as we only want to have a random
number scaled into RTO interval.
Note, exponential RTO backoff is handeled elsewhere, namely in
sctp_do_8_2_transport_strike().

The if_lock()/if_unlock() in next_to_run() adds a significant
overhead, because its called for every packet in busy loop of
pktgen_thread_worker(). (Thomas Graf originally pointed me
at this lock problem).
Removing these two "LOCK" operations should in theory save us approx
16ns (8ns x 2), as illustrated below we do save 16ns when removing
the locks and introducing RCU protection.
Performance data with CLONE_SKB==100000, TX-size=512, rx-usecs=30:
(single CPU performance, ixgbe 10Gbit/s, E5-2630)
* Prev : 5684009 pps --> 175.93ns (1/5684009*10^9)
* RCU-fix: 6272204 pps --> 159.43ns (1/6272204*10^9)
* Diff : +588195 pps --> -16.50ns
To understand this RCU patch, I describe the pktgen thread model
below.
In pktgen there is several kernel threads, but there is only one CPU
running each kernel thread. Communication with the kernel threads are
done through some thread control flags. This allow the thread to
change data structures at a know synchronization point, see main
thread func pktgen_thread_worker().
Userspace changes are communicated through proc-file writes. There
are three types of changes, general control changes "pgctrl"
(func:pgctrl_write), thread changes "kpktgend_X"
(func:pktgen_thread_write), and interface config changes "etcX@N"
(func:pktgen_if_write).
Userspace "pgctrl" and "thread" changes are synchronized via the mutex
pktgen_thread_lock, thus only a single userspace instance can run.
The mutex is taken while the packet generator is running, by pgctrl
"start". Thus e.g. "add_device" cannot be invoked when pktgen is
running/started.
All "pgctrl" and all "thread" changes, except thread "add_device",
communicate via the thread control flags. The main problem is the
exception "add_device", that modifies threads "if_list" directly.
Fortunately "add_device" cannot be invoked while pktgen is running.
But there exists a race between "rem_device_all" and "add_device"
(which normally don't occur, because "rem_device_all" waits 125ms
before returning). Background'ing "rem_device_all" and running
"add_device" immediately allow the race to occur.
The race affects the threads (list of devices) "if_list". The if_lock
is used for protecting this "if_list". Other readers are given
lock-free access to the list under RCU read sections.
Note, interface config changes (via proc) can occur while pktgen is
running, which worries me a bit. I'm assuming proc_remove() takes
appropriate locks, to assure no writers exists after proc_remove()
finish.
I've been running a script exercising the race condition (leading me
to fix the proc_remove order), without any issues. The script also
exercises concurrent proc writes, while the interface config is
getting removed.

As a consequence of the recently introduced serialized access
to the socket in commit 8d94168a761819d10252bab1f8de6d7b202c3baa
("tipc: same receive code path for connection protocol and data
messages") we can make a number of simplifications in the
detection and handling of connection congestion situations.
- We don't need to keep two counters, one for sent messages and one
for acked messages. There is no longer any risk for races between
acknowledge messages arriving in BH and data message sending
running in user context. So we merge this into one counter,
'sent_unacked', which is incremented at sending and subtracted
from at acknowledge reception.
- We don't need to set the 'congested' field in tipc_port to
true before we sent the message, and clear it when sending
is successful. (As a matter of fact, it was never necessary;
the field was set in link_schedule_port() before any wakeup
could arrive anyway.)
- We keep the conditions for link congestion and connection connection
congestion separated. There would otherwise be a risk that an arriving
acknowledge message may wake up a user sleeping because of link
congestion.
- We can simplify reception of acknowledge messages.
We also make some cosmetic/structural changes:
- We rename the 'congested' field to the more correct 'link_cong´.
- We rename 'conn_unacked' to 'rcv_unacked'
- We move the above mentioned fields from struct tipc_port to
struct tipc_sock.

We simplify the code for receiving connection probes, leveraging the

the principle of sending a possible response message directly from
the calling (tipc_sk_rcv or backlog_rcv) functions, hence making
the call chain shallower and easier to follow.
We make one small protocol change here, allowed according to
the spec. If a protocol message arrives from a remote socket that
is not the one we are connected to, we are currently generating a
connection abort message and send it to the source. This behavior
is unnecessary, and might even be a security risk, so instead we
now choose to only ignore the message. The consequnce for the sender
is that he will need longer time to discover his mistake (until the
next timeout), but this is an extreme corner case, and may happen
anyway under other circumstances, so we deem this change acceptable.

When a message arrives in a node and finds no destination
socket, we may need to drop it, reject it, or forward it after
a secondary destination lookup. The latter two cases currently
results in a code path that is perceived as complex, because it
follows a deep call chain via obscure functions such as
net_route_named_msg() and net_route_msg().
We now introduce a function, tipc_msg_eval(), that takes the

forwarded, but leaves it to the caller to actually perform
the indicated action.
If the decision is 'reject', it is still the task of the recently

about whether the message is rejectable or not. In the latter case
it drops the message.
As a result of this change, we can finally eliminate the function
net_route_named_msg(), and hence become independent of net_route_msg().

The way we build and send rejected message is currenty perceived as
hard to follow, partly because we let the transmission go via deep
call chains through functions such as tipc_reject_msg() and
net_route_msg().
We want to remove those functions, and make the call sequences shallower
and simpler. For this purpose, we separate building and sending of
rejected messages. We build the reject message using the new function
tipc_msg_reverse(), and let the transmission go via the newly introduced
tipc_link_xmit2() function, as all transmission eventually will do. We
also ensure that all calls to tipc_link_xmit2() are made outside
port_lock/bh_lock_sock.
Finally, we replace all calls to tipc_reject_msg() with the two new
calls at all locations in the code that we want to keep. The remaining
calls are made from code that we are planning to remove, along with
tipc_reject_msg() itself.

Fragmentation at message sending is currently performed in two
places in link.c, depending on whether data to be transmitted
is delivered in the form of an iovec or as a big sk_buff. Those
functions are also tightly entangled with the send functions
that are using them.
We now introduce a re-entrant, standalone function, tipc_msg_build2(),
that builds a packet chain directly from an iovec. Each fragment is
sized according to the MTU value given by the caller, and is prepended
with a correctly built fragment header, when needed. The function is
independent from who is calling and where the chain will be delivered,
as long as the caller is able to indicate a correct MTU.
The function is tested, but not called by anybody yet. Since it is
incompatible with the existing tipc_msg_build(), and we cannot yet
remove that function, we have given it a temporary name.

Message fragmentation is currently performed at link level, inside
the protection of node_lock. This potentially binds up the sending
link structure for a long time, instead of letting it do other tasks,
such as handle reception of new packets.
In this commit, we make the MTUs of each active link become easily
accessible from the socket level, i.e., without taking any spinlock
or dereferencing the target link pointer. This way, we make it possible
to perform fragmentation in the sending socket, before sending the
whole fragment chain to the link for transport.

The current link implementation provides several different transmit
functions, depending on the characteristics of the message to be
sent: if it is an iovec or an sk_buff, if it needs fragmentation or
not, if the caller holds the node_lock or not. The permutation of
these options gives us an unwanted amount of unnecessarily complex
code.
As a first step towards simplifying the send path for all messages,
we introduce two new send functions at link level, tipc_link_xmit2()
and __tipc_link_xmit2(). The former looks up a link to the message
destination, and if one is found, it grabs the node lock and calls
the second function, which works exclusively inside the node lock
protection. If no link is found, and the destination is on the same
node, it delivers the message directly to the local destination
socket.
The new functions take a buffer chain where all packet headers are
already prepared, and the correct MTU has been used. These two
functions will later replace all other link-level transmit functions.
The functions are not backwards compatible, so we have added them
as new functions with temporary names. They are tested, but have no
users yet. Those will be added later in this series.
