Fix Tunnel features and enable GSO partial for several drivers
This patch series is meant to allow us to get the best performance possible
for Mellanox ConnectX-3/4 and Broadcom NetXtreme-C/E adapters in terms of
VXLAN and GRE tunnels.
The first 3 patches address issues I found in regards to GSO_PARTIAL and
TSO_MANGLEID.
The next 4 patches go through and enable GSO_PARTIAL for VXLAN tunnels that
have an outer checksum enabled, and then enable IPv6 support where I can.
One outstanding issue is that I wasn't able to get offloads working with
outer IPv6 headers on mlx4. However that wasn't a feature that was enabled
before so it isn't technically a regression, however I believe Engineers
from Mellanox said they would look into it since they thought it should be
supported.
The last patch enables GSO_PARTIAL for VXLAN and GRE tunnels on the bnxt
driver. One piece of feedback I received on the patch was that the
hardware has globally set IPv6 UDP tunnels to always have the checksum
field computed. I plan to work with Broadcom to get that addressed so that
we only populate the checksum field if it was requested by the network
stack.
v2: Rebased patches off of latest changes to the mlx4/mlx5 drivers.
Added bnxt driver patch as I received feedback on the RFC.
v3: Moved 2 patches into series for net as they were generic fixes.
Added patch to disable GSO partial if frame is less than 2x size of MSS
There are outstanding issues as called out above that need to be
addressed, however they were present before these patches so it isn't
as if they introduce a regression. In addition gains can be easily
seen so there should be no issue with applying the driver patches while
the IPv6 mlx4_en and bnxt issues are being researched.

This patch assumes that the bnxt hardware will ignore existing IPv4/v6
header fields for length and checksum as well as the length and checksum
fields for outer UDP and GRE headers.
I have been told by Michael Chan that this is working. Though this might
be somewhat redundant for IPv6 as they are forcing the checksum to be
computed for all IPv6 frames that are offloaded. A follow-up patch may be
necessary in order to fix this as it is essentially mangling the outer IPv6
headers to add a checksum where none was requested.

The mlx5 driver exposes support for TSO6 but not IPv6 csum for hardware
encapsulated tunnels. This leads to issues as it triggers warnings in
skb_checksum_help as it ends up being called as we report supporting the
segmentation but not the checksumming for IPv6 frames.
This patch corrects that and drops 2 features that don't actually need to
be supported in hw_enc_features since they are Rx features and don't
actually impact anything by being present in hw_enc_features.

>From what I can tell the ConnectX-3 will support an inner IPv6 checksum and
segmentation offload, however it cannot support outer IPv6 headers. This
assumption is based on the fact that I could see the checksum being
offloaded for inner header on IPv4 tunnels, but not on IPv6 tunnels.
For this reason I am adding the feature to the hw_enc_features and adding
an extra check to the features_check call that will disable GSO and
checksum offload in the case that the encapsulated frame has an outer IP
version of that is not 4. The check in mlx4_en_features_check could be
removed if at some point in the future a fix is found that allows the
hardware to offload segmentation/checksum on tunnels with an outer IPv6
header.

In the event that the number of partial segments is equal to 1 we don't

An arbitration scheme for duelling SYNs is implemented as part of
commit 241b271952 ("RDS-TCP: Reset tcp callbacks if re-using an
outgoing socket in rds_tcp_accept_one()") which ensures that both nodes
involved will arrive at the same arbitration decision. However, this
needs to be synchronized with an outgoing SYN to be generated by
rds_tcp_conn_connect(). This commit achieves the synchronization
through the t_conn_lock mutex in struct rds_tcp_connection.
The rds_conn_state is checked in rds_tcp_conn_connect() after acquiring
the t_conn_lock mutex. A SYN is sent out only if the RDS connection is
not already UP (an UP would indicate that rds_tcp_accept_one() has
completed 3WH, so no SYN needs to be generated).
Similarly, the rds_conn_state is checked in rds_tcp_accept_one() after
acquiring the t_conn_lock mutex. The only acceptable states (to
allow continuation of the arbitration logic) are UP (i.e., outgoing SYN
was SYN-ACKed by peer after it sent us the SYN) or CONNECTING (we sent
outgoing SYN before we saw incoming SYN).

There is a race condition between rds_send_xmit -> rds_tcp_xmit
and the code that deals with resolution of duelling syns added
by commit 241b271952 ("RDS-TCP: Reset tcp callbacks if re-using an
outgoing socket in rds_tcp_accept_one()").
Specifically, we may end up derefencing a null pointer in rds_send_xmit
if we have the interleaving sequence:
rds_tcp_accept_one rds_send_xmit
conn is RDS_CONN_UP, so
invoke rds_tcp_xmit
tc = conn->c_transport_data
rds_tcp_restore_callbacks
/* reset t_sock */
null ptr deref from tc->t_sock
The race condition can be avoided without adding the overhead of
additional locking in the xmit path: have rds_tcp_accept_one wait
for rds_tcp_xmit threads to complete before resetting callbacks.
The synchronization can be done in the same manner as rds_conn_shutdown().
First set the rds_conn_state to something other than RDS_CONN_UP
(so that new threads cannot get into rds_tcp_xmit()), then wait for
RDS_IN_XMIT to be cleared in the conn->c_flags indicating that any
threads in rds_tcp_xmit are done.

check to vxlan_features_check so that we can verify that we can offload the

tipc: redesign socket-level flow control
The socket-level flow control in TIPC has long been due for a major
overhaul. This series fixes this.
====================
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
There are two flow control mechanisms in TIPC; one at link level that
handles network congestion, burst control, and retransmission, and one
at connection level which' only remaining task is to prevent overflow
in the receiving socket buffer. In TIPC, the latter task has to be
solved end-to-end because messages can not be thrown away once they
have been accepted and delivered upwards from the link layer, i.e, we
can never permit the receive buffer to overflow.
Currently, this algorithm is message based. A counter in the receiving
socket keeps track of number of consumed messages, and sends a dedicated
acknowledge message back to the sender for each 256 consumed message.
A counter at the sending end keeps track of the sent, not yet
acknowledged messages, and blocks the sender if this number ever reaches
512 unacknowledged messages. When the missing acknowledge arrives, the
socket is then woken up for renewed transmission. This works well for
keeping the message flow running, as it almost never happens that a
sender socket is blocked this way.
A problem with the current mechanism is that it potentially is very
memory consuming. Since we don't distinguish between small and large
messages, we have to dimension the socket receive buffer according
to a worst-case of both. I.e., the window size must be chosen large
enough to sustain a reasonable throughput even for the smallest
messages, while we must still consider a scenario where all messages
are of maximum size. Hence, the current fix window size of 512 messages
and a maximum message size of 66k results in a receive buffer of 66 MB
when truesize(66k) = 131k is taken into account. It is possible to do
much better.
This commit introduces an algorithm where we instead use 1024-byte
blocks as base unit. This unit, always rounded upwards from the
actual message size, is used when we advertise windows as well as when
we count and acknowledge transmitted data. The advertised window is
based on the configured receive buffer size in such a way that even
the worst-case truesize/msgsize ratio always is covered. Since the
smallest possible message size (from a flow control viewpoint) now is
1024 bytes, we can safely assume this ratio to be less than four, which
is the value we are now using.
This way, we have been able to reduce the default receive buffer size
from 66 MB to 2 MB with maintained performance.
In order to keep this solution backwards compatible, we introduce a
new capability bit in the discovery protocol, and use this throughout
the message sending/reception path to always select the right unit.

During neighbor discovery, nodes advertise their capabilities as a bit
map in a dedicated 16-bit field in the discovery message header. This
bit map has so far only be stored in the node structure on the peer
nodes, but we now see the need to keep a copy even in the socket
structure.
This commit adds this functionality.

In the refactoring commit d570d86497 ("tipc: enqueue arrived buffers
in socket in separate function") we did by accident replace the test
if (sk->sk_backlog.len == 0)
atomic_set(&tsk->dupl_rcvcnt, 0);
with
if (sk->sk_backlog.len)
atomic_set(&tsk->dupl_rcvcnt, 0);
This effectively disables the compensation we have for the double
receive buffer accounting that occurs temporarily when buffers are
moved from the backlog to the socket receive queue. Until now, this
has gone unnoticed because of the large receive buffer limits we are
applying, but becomes indispensable when we reduce this buffer limit
later in this series.
We now fix this by inverting the mentioned condition.
