6c742e714d ipip: add x-netns support
This patch allows to switch the netns when packet is encapsulated or
decapsulated. In other word, the encapsulated packet is received in a netns,
where the lookup is done to find the tunnel. Once the tunnel is found, the
packet is decapsulated and injecting into the corresponding interface which
stands to another netns.

When one of the two netns is removed, the tunnel is destroyed.

64261f230a dev: move skb_scrub_packet() after eth_type_trans()
skb_scrub_packet() was called before eth_type_trans() to let eth_type_trans()

In fact, we should force pkt_type to PACKET_HOST, so move the call after

4221f40513 ip_tunnel: Do not use inner ip-header-id for tunnel ip-header-id.
Using inner-id for tunnel id is not safe in some rare cases.
E.g. packets coming from multiple sources entering same tunnel
can have same id. Therefore on tunnel packet receive we
could have packets from two different stream but with same
source and dst IP with same ip-id which could confuse ip packet
reassembly.

Following patch reverts optimization from commit

74c181d528 tcp: reset reordering est. selectively on timeout
On timeout the TCP sender unconditionally resets the estimated degree
of network reordering (tp->reordering). The idea behind this is that
the estimate is too large to trigger fast recovery (e.g., due to a IP
path change).

But for example if the sender only had 2 packets outstanding, then a
timeout doesn't tell much about reordering. A sender that learns about
reordering on big writes and loses packets on small writes will end up
falsely retransmitting again and again, especially when reordering is
more likely on big writes.

Therefore the sender should only suspect that tp->reordering is too
high if it could have gone into fast recovery with the (lower) default
estimate.

2690048c01 net: igmp: Allow user-space configuration of igmp unsolicited report interval
Adds the new procfs knobs:

    /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/*/igmpv2_unsolicited_report_interval
    /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/*/igmpv3_unsolicited_report_interval

Which will allow userspace configuration of the IGMP unsolicited report
interval (see below) in milliseconds.  The defaults are 10000ms for IGMPv2
and 1000ms for IGMPv3 in accordance with RFC2236 and RFC3376.

Background:

If an IGMP join packet is lost you will not receive data sent to the
multicast group so if no data arrives from that multicast group in a
period of time after the IGMP join a second IGMP join will be sent.  The
delay between joins is the "IGMP Unsolicited Report Interval".

Prior to this patch this value was hard coded in the kernel to 10s for
IGMPv2 and 1s for IGMPv3.  10s is unsuitable for some use-cases, such as
IPTV as it can cause channel change to be slow in the presence of packet
loss.

This patch allows the value to be overridden from userspace for both
IGMPv2 and IGMPv3 such that it can be tuned accoding to the network.

Tested with Wireshark and a simple program to join a (non-existent)
multicast group.  The distribution of timings for the second join differ
based upon setting the procfs knobs.

igmpvX_unsolicited_report_interval is intended to follow the pattern
established by force_igmp_version, and while a procfs entry has been added
a corresponding sysctl knob has not as it is my understanding that sysctl
is deprecated[1].

5c6fe01c1f net: igmp: Don't flush routing cache when force_igmp_version is modified
The procfs knob /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/*/force_igmp_version allows the
IGMP protocol version to use to be explicitly set.  As a side effect this
caused the routing cache to be flushed as it was declared as a
DEVINET_SYSCTL_FLUSHING_ENTRY.  Flushing is unnecessary and this patch
makes it so flushing does not occur.

cab70040df net: igmp: Reduce Unsolicited report interval to 1s when using IGMPv3
If an IGMP join packet is lost you will not receive data sent to the
multicast group so if no data arrives from that multicast group in a
period of time after the IGMP join a second IGMP join will be sent.  The
delay between joins is the "IGMP Unsolicited Report Interval".

Previously this value was hard coded to be chosen randomly between 0-10s.
This can be too long for some use-cases, such as IPTV as it can cause
channel change to be slow in the presence of packet loss.

The value 10s has come from IGMPv2 RFC2236, which was reduced to 1s in
IGMPv3 RFC3376.  This patch makes the kernel use the 1s value from the
later RFC if we are operating in IGMPv3 mode.  IGMPv2 behaviour is
unaffected.

Tested with Wireshark and a simple program to join a (non-existent)
multicast group.  The distribution of timings for the second join differ
based upon setting /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/eth0/force_igmp_version.

1f07d03e20 net: add SNMP counters tracking incoming ECN bits

cd6b423afd tcp: cubic: fix bug in bictcp_acked()
While investigating about strange increase of retransmit rates
on hosts ~24 days after boot, Van found hystart was disabled
if ca->epoch_start was 0, as following condition is true
when tcp_time_stamp high order bit is set.

(s32)(tcp_time_stamp - ca->epoch_start) < HZ

Quoting Van :

 At initialization & after every loss ca->epoch_start is set to zero so
 I believe that the above line will turn off hystart as soon as the 2^31
 bit is set in tcp_time_stamp & hystart will stay off for 24 days.
 I think we've observed that cubic's restart is too aggressive without
 hystart so this might account for the higher drop rate we observe.

2ed0edf909 tcp: cubic: fix overflow error in bictcp_update()
commit 17a6e9f1aa ("tcp_cubic: fix clock dependency") added an
overflow error in bictcp_update() in following code :

/* change the unit from HZ to bictcp_HZ */
t = ((tcp_time_stamp + msecs_to_jiffies(ca->delay_min>>3) -
      ca->epoch_start) << BICTCP_HZ) / HZ;

Because msecs_to_jiffies() being unsigned long, compiler does
implicit type promotion.

We really want to constrain (tcp_time_stamp - ca->epoch_start)
to a signed 32bit value, or else 't' has unexpected high values.

This bugs triggers an increase of retransmit rates ~24 days after
boot [1], as the high order bit of tcp_time_stamp flips.

[1] for hosts with HZ=1000

Big thanks to Van Jacobson for spotting this problem.

7921895a5e net: esp{4,6}: fix potential MTU calculation overflows
Commit 91657eafb ("xfrm: take net hdr len into account for esp payload
size calculation") introduced a possible interger overflow in
esp{4,6}_get_mtu() handlers in case of x->props.mode equals
XFRM_MODE_TUNNEL. Thus, the following expression will overflow

  unsigned int net_adj;
  ...
  <case ipv{4,6} XFRM_MODE_TUNNEL>
         net_adj = 0;
  ...
  return ((mtu - x->props.header_len - crypto_aead_authsize(esp->aead) -
           net_adj) & ~(align - 1)) + (net_adj - 2);

where (net_adj - 2) would be evaluated as <foo> + (0 - 2) in an unsigned
context. Fix it by simply removing brackets as those operations here
do not need to have special precedence.

73f5698e77 fib_rules: fix suppressor names and default values
This change brings the suppressor attribute names into line; it also changes
the data types to provide a more consistent interface.

While -1 indicates that the suppressor is not enabled, values >= 0 for
suppress_prefixlen or suppress_ifgroup  reject routing decisions violating the
constraint.

This changes the previously presented behaviour of suppress_prefixlen, where a
prefix length _less_ than the attribute value was rejected. After this change,
a prefix length less than *or* equal to the value is considered a violation of
the rule constraint.

It also changes the default values for default and newly added rules (disabling
any suppression for those).

7764a45a8f fib_rules: add .suppress operation
This change adds a new operation to the fib_rules_ops struct; it allows the
suppression of routing decisions if certain criteria are not met by its
results.

The first implemented constraint is a minimum prefix length added to the
structures of routing rules. If a rule is added with a minimum prefix length
>0, only routes meeting this threshold will be considered. Any other (more
general) routing table entries will be ignored.

When configuring a system with multiple network uplinks and default routes, it
is often convinient to reference the main routing table multiple times - but
omitting the default route. Using this patch and a modified "ip" utility, this
can be achieved by using the following command sequence:

  $ ip route add table secuplink default via 10.42.23.1

  $ ip rule add pref 100            table main prefixlength 1
  $ ip rule add pref 150 fwmark 0xA table secuplink

With this setup, packets marked 0xA will be processed by the additional routing
table "secuplink", but only if no suitable route in the main routing table can
be found. By using a minimal prefixlength of 1, the default route (/0) of the
table "main" is hidden to packets processed by rule 100; packets traveling to
destinations with more specific routing entries are processed as usual.

drawbacks:

- Add/delete an IPv4 address will invalidate all IPv6 routing table entries.
- Insert/remove XFRM policy will also invalidate both IPv4/IPv6 routing table

Thus, this patch attempt to split one genid for two to cater for IPv4 and IPv6

c9bee3b7fd tcp: TCP_NOTSENT_LOWAT socket option
Idea of this patch is to add optional limitation of number of
unsent bytes in TCP sockets, to reduce usage of kernel memory.

TCP receiver might announce a big window, and TCP sender autotuning
might allow a large amount of bytes in write queue, but this has little
performance impact if a large part of this buffering is wasted :

Write queue needs to be large only to deal with large BDP, not
necessarily to cope with scheduling delays (incoming ACKS make room
for the application to queue more bytes)

For most workloads, using a value of 128 KB or less is OK to give
applications enough time to react to POLLOUT events in time
(or being awaken in a blocking sendmsg())

This patch adds two ways to set the limit :

1) Per socket option TCP_NOTSENT_LOWAT

2) A sysctl (/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_notsent_lowat) for sockets
not using TCP_NOTSENT_LOWAT socket option (or setting a zero value)
Default value being UINT_MAX (0xFFFFFFFF), meaning this has no effect.

This changes poll()/select()/epoll() to report POLLOUT
only if number of unsent bytes is below tp->nosent_lowat

Note this might increase number of sendmsg()/sendfile() calls
when using non blocking sockets,
and increase number of context switches for blocking sockets.

Note this is not related to SO_SNDLOWAT (as SO_SNDLOWAT is
defined as :
 Specify the minimum number of bytes in the buffer until
 the socket layer will pass the data to the protocol)

Tested:

netperf sessions, and watching /proc/net/protocols "memory" column for TCP

With 200 concurrent netperf -t TCP_STREAM sessions, amount of kernel memory
used by TCP buffers shrinks by ~55 % (20567 pages instead of 45458)

Using 128KB has no bad effect on the throughput or cpu usage
of a single flow, although there is an increase of context switches.

A bonus is that we hold socket lock for a shorter amount
of time and should improve latencies of ACK processing.

ed08495c31 tcp: use RTT from SACK for RTO
If RTT is not available because Karn's check has failed or no
new packet is acked, use the RTT measured from SACK to estimate
the RTO. The sender can continue to estimate the RTO during loss
recovery or reordering event upon receiving non-partial ACKs.

This also changes when the RTO is re-armed. Previously it is
only re-armed when some data is cummulatively acknowledged (i.e.,
SND.UNA advances), but now it is re-armed whenever RTT estimator
is updated. This feature is particularly useful to reduce spurious
timeout for buffer bloat including cellular carriers [1], and
RTT estimation on reordering events.

59c9af4234 tcp: measure RTT from new SACK
Take RTT sample if an ACK selectively acks some sequences that
have never been retransmitted. The Karn's algorithm does not apply
even if that ACK (s)acks other retransmitted sequences, because it
must been generated by an original but perhaps out-of-order packet.
There is no ambiguity. In case when multiple blocks are newly
sacked because of ACK losses the earliest block is used to
measure RTT, similar to cummulative ACKs.

Such RTT samples allow the sender to estimate the RTO during loss
recovery and packet reordering events. It is still useful even with
TCP timestamps. That's because during these events the SND.UNA may
not advance preventing RTT samples from TS ECR (thus the FLAG_ACKED
check before calling tcp_ack_update_rtt()).  Therefore this new
RTT source is complementary to existing ACK and TS RTT mechanisms.

This patch does not update the RTO. It is done in the next patch.

21d1196a35 ipv4: set transport header earlier
commit 45f00f99d6 ("ipv4: tcp: clean up tcp_v4_early_demux()") added a
performance regression for non GRO traffic, basically disabling
IP early demux.

IPv6 stack resets transport header in ip6_rcv() before calling
IP early demux in ip6_rcv_finish(), while IPv4 does this only in
ip_local_deliver_finish(), _after_ IP early demux.

GRO traffic happened to enable IP early demux because transport header
is also set in inet_gro_receive()

Instead of reverting the faulty commit, we can make IPv4/IPv6 behave the
same : transport_header should be set in ip_rcv() instead of
ip_local_deliver_finish()

ip_local_deliver_finish() can also use skb_network_header_len() which is
faster than ip_hdrlen()

8c91e162e0 gre: Fix MTU sizing check for gretap tunnels
This change fixes an MTU sizing issue seen with gretap tunnels when non-gso
packets are sent from the interface.

In my case I was able to reproduce the issue by simply sending a ping of
1421 bytes with the gretap interface created on a device with a standard
1500 mtu.

This fix is based on the fact that the tunnel mtu is already adjusted by
dev->hard_header_len so it would make sense that any packets being compared
against that mtu should also be adjusted by hard_header_len and the tunnel
header instead of just the tunnel header.

cdbaa0bb26 gso: Update tunnel segmentation to support Tx checksum offload
This change makes it so that the GRE and VXLAN tunnels can make use of Tx
checksum offload support provided by some drivers via the hw_enc_features.
Without this fix enabling GSO means sacrificing Tx checksum offload and
this actually leads to a performance regression as shown below:

            Utilization
            Send
Throughput  local         GSO
10^6bits/s  % S           state
  6276.51   8.39          enabled
  7123.52   8.42          disabled

To resolve this it was necessary to address two items.  First
netif_skb_features needed to be updated so that it would correctly handle
the Trans Ether Bridging protocol without impacting the need to check for
Q-in-Q tagging.  To do this it was necessary to update harmonize_features
so that it used skb_network_protocol instead of just using the outer
protocol.

Second it was necessary to update the GRE and UDP tunnel segmentation
offloads so that they would reset the encapsulation bit and inner header
offsets after the offload was complete.

As a result of this change I have seen the following results on a interface
with Tx checksum enabled for encapsulated frames:

            Utilization
            Send
Throughput  local         GSO
10^6bits/s  % S           state
  7123.52   8.42          disabled
  8321.75   5.43          enabled

v2: Instead of replacing refrence to skb->protocol with
    skb_network_protocol just replace the protocol reference in
    harmonize_features to allow for double VLAN tag checks.

 "This is a re-do of the net-next pull request for the current merge
  window.  The only difference from the one I made the other day is that
  this has Eliezer's interface renames and the timeout handling changes
  made based upon your feedback, as well as a few bug fixes that have
  trickeled in.

      more than ever before in the case where we have lots of multicast
      addresses.  Use a hash table instead of a simple linked list, from
      Eric Dumazet.

  20) Support setting of explicit tunnel peer addresses in ipv6, just
      like ipv4.  From Nicolas Dichtel.

  21) Protect x86 BPF JIT against spraying attacks, from Eric Dumazet.

  22) Prevent a single high rate flow from overruning an individual cpu
      during RX packet processing via selective flow shedding.  From
      Willem de Bruijn.

      from Vlad Yasevich.

  26) Support IPV6 in ping sockets.  From Lorenzo Colitti.
