tcp: gro: micro optimizations in tcp[4]_gro_complete()

In tcp_gro_complete() :

Moving the skb->inner_transport_header setting
allows the compiler to reuse the previously loaded value
of skb->transport_header.

Caching skb_shinfo() avoids duplications as well.

In tcp4_gro_complete(), doing a single change on
skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_type also generates better code.

net: gro: rename skb_gro_header_hard()

skb_gro_header_hard() is renamed to skb_gro_may_pull() to match
the convention used by common helpers like pskb_may_pull().

This means the condition is inverted:

if (skb_gro_header_hard(skb, hlen))
slow_path();

becomes:

if (!skb_gro_may_pull(skb, hlen))
slow_path();

tcp: gso: really support BIG TCP

We missed that tcp_gso_segment() was assuming skb->len was smaller than 65535 :

oldlen = (u16)~skb->len;

This part came with commit 0718bcc09b35 ("[NET]: Fix CHECKSUM_HW GSO problems.")

This leads to wrong TCP checksum.

Adapt the code to accept arbitrary packet length.

v2:
- use two csum_add() instead of csum_fold() (Alexander Duyck)
- Change delta type to __wsum to reduce casts (Alexander Duyck)

net: Make gro complete function to return void

tcp_gro_complete() function only updates the skb fields related to GRO
and it always returns zero. All the 3 drivers which are using it
do not check for the return value either.

Change it to return void instead which simplifies its callers as
error handing becomes unnecessary.

gro: add support of (hw)gro packets to gro stack

Current GRO stack only supports incoming packets containing
one frame/MSS.

This patch changes GRO to accept packets that are already GRO.

HW-GRO (aka RSC for some vendors) is very often limited in presence
of interleaved packets. Linux SW GRO stack can complete the job
and provide larger GRO packets, thus reducing rate of ACK packets
and cpu overhead.

This also means BIG TCP can still be used, even if HW-GRO/RSC was
able to cook ~64 KB GRO packets.

v2: fix logic in tcp_gro_receive()

Only support TCP for the moment (Paolo)

net: gro: skb_gro_header helper function

Introduce a simple helper function to replace a common pattern.
When accessing the GRO header, we fetch the pointer from frag0,
then test its validity and fetch it from the skb when necessary.

This leads to the pattern
skb_gro_header_fast -> skb_gro_header_hard -> skb_gro_header_slow
recurring many times throughout GRO code.

This patch replaces these patterns with a single inlined function
call, improving code readability.

net, gro: Set inner transport header offset in tcp/udp GRO hook

GSO expects inner transport header offset to be valid when
skb->encapsulation flag is set. GSO uses this value to calculate the length
of an individual segment of a GSO packet in skb_gso_transport_seglen().

However, tcp/udp gro_complete callbacks don't update the
skb->inner_transport_header when processing an encapsulated TCP/UDP
segment. As a result a GRO skb has ->inner_transport_header set to a value
carried over from earlier skb processing.

This can have mild to tragic consequences. From miscalculating the GSO
segment length to triggering a page fault [1], when trying to read TCP/UDP
header at an address past the skb->data page.

The latter scenario leads to an oops report like so:

BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffff9fa7ec00d008

The bug can be observed in a simple setup where we send IP/GRE/IP/TCP
packets into a netns over a veth pair. Inside the netns, packets are
forwarded to dummy device:

trafgen -> [veth A]--[veth B] -forward-> [dummy]

For veth B to GRO aggregate packets on receive, it needs to have an XDP
program attached (for example, a trivial XDP_PASS). Additionally, for UDP,
we need to enable GSO_UDP_L4 feature on the device:

ip netns exec A ethtool -K AB rx-udp-gro-forwarding on

The last component is an artificial delay to increase the chances of GRO
batching happening:

ip netns exec A tc qdisc add dev AB root \
netem delay 200us slot 5ms 10ms packets 2 bytes 64k

With such a setup in place, the bug can be observed by tracing the skb
outer and inner offsets when GSO skb is transmitted from the dummy device:

tcp:

FUNC DEV SKB_LEN NH TH ENC INH ITH GSO_SIZE GSO_TYPE
ip_finish_output dumB 2830 270 290 1 294 254 1383 (tcpv4,gre,)

ip_finish_output dumB 2818 270 290 1 294 254 1383 (gre,udp_l4,)
^^^

Fix it by updating the inner transport header offset in tcp/udp
gro_complete callbacks, similar to how {inet,ipv6}_gro_complete callbacks
update the inner network header offset, when skb->encapsulation flag is
set.

net: use indirect call wrappers at GRO transport layer

This avoids an indirect call in the receive path for TCP and UDP

additional conditional in the common case.

When IPV6 is build as module, all gro symbols except UDPv6 are
builtin, while the latter belong to the ipv6 module, so we
need some special care.

tcp: gso: avoid refcount_t warning from tcp_gso_segment()

When a GSO skb of truesize O is segmented into 2 new skbs of truesize N1
and N2, we want to transfer socket ownership to the new fresh skbs.

In order to avoid expensive atomic operations on a cache line subject to
cache bouncing, we replace the sequence :

refcount_add(N1, &sk->sk_wmem_alloc);
refcount_add(N2, &sk->sk_wmem_alloc); // repeated by number of segments

refcount_sub(O, &sk->sk_wmem_alloc);

by a single

refcount_add(sum_of(N) - O, &sk->sk_wmem_alloc);

Problem is :

In some pathological cases, sum(N) - O might be a negative number, and
syzkaller bot was apparently able to trigger this trace [1]

atomic_t was ok with this construct, but we need to take care of the
negative delta with refcount_t

gso: Remove arbitrary checks for unsupported GSO

In several gso_segment functions there are checks of gso_type against
a seemingly arbitrary list of SKB_GSO_* flags. This seems like an
attempt to identify unsupported GSO types, but since the stack is

GSO: Support partial segmentation offload

This patch adds support for something I am referring to as GSO partial.
The basic idea is that we can support a broader range of devices for
segmentation if we use fixed outer headers and have the hardware only
really deal with segmenting the inner header. The idea behind the naming
is due to the fact that everything before csum_start will be fixed headers,
and everything after will be the region that is handled by hardware.

With the current implementation it allows us to add support for the
following GSO types with an inner TSO_MANGLEID or TSO6 offload:
NETIF_F_GSO_GRE
NETIF_F_GSO_GRE_CSUM
NETIF_F_GSO_IPIP
NETIF_F_GSO_SIT
NETIF_F_UDP_TUNNEL
NETIF_F_UDP_TUNNEL_CSUM

In the case of hardware that already supports tunneling we may be able to
extend this further to support TSO_TCPV4 without TSO_MANGLEID if the
hardware can support updating inner IPv4 headers.

GRO: Add support for TCP with fixed IPv4 ID field, limit tunnel IP ID values

This patch does two things.

First it allows TCP to aggregate TCP frames with a fixed IPv4 ID field. As
a result we should now be able to aggregate flows that were converted from
IPv6 to IPv4. In addition this allows us more flexibility for future
implementations of segmentation as we may be able to use a fixed IP ID when
segmenting the flow.

The second thing this does is that it places limitations on the outer IPv4
ID header in the case of tunneled frames. Specifically it forces the IP ID
to be incrementing by 1 unless the DF bit is set in the outer IPv4 header.
This way we can avoid creating overlapping series of IP IDs that could
possibly be fragmented if the frame goes through GRO and is then
resegmented via GSO.

GSO: Add GSO type for fixed IPv4 ID

This patch adds support for TSO using IPv4 headers with a fixed IP ID
field. This is meant to allow us to do a lossless GRO in the case of TCP
flows that use a fixed IP ID such as those that convert IPv6 header to IPv4
headers.

In addition I am adding a feature that for now I am referring to TSO with
IP ID mangling. Basically when this flag is enabled the device has the
option to either output the flow with incrementing IP IDs or with a fixed
IP ID regardless of what the original IP ID ordering was. This is useful
in cases where the DF bit is set and we do not care if the original IP ID
value is maintained.

net: Store checksum result for offloaded GSO checksums

This patch makes it so that we can offload the checksums for a packet up
to a certain point and then begin computing the checksums via software.
Setting this up is fairly straight forward as all we need to do is reset
the values stored in csum and csum_start for the GSO context block.

One complication for this is remote checksum offload. In order to allow
the inner checksums to be offloaded while computing the outer checksum
manually we needed to have some way of indicating that the offload wasn't
real. In order to do that I replaced CHECKSUM_PARTIAL with
CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY in the case of us computing checksums for the outer
header while skipping computing checksums for the inner headers. We clean
up the ip_summed flag and set it to either CHECKSUM_PARTIAL or
CHECKSUM_NONE once we hand the packet off to the next lower level.

net-timestamp: TCP timestamping

TCP timestamping extends SO_TIMESTAMPING to bytestreams.

Bytestreams do not have a 1:1 relationship between send() buffers and
network packets. The feature interprets a send call on a bytestream as
a request for a timestamp for the last byte in that send() buffer.

The choice corresponds to a request for a timestamp when all bytes in
the buffer have been sent. That assumption depends on in-order kernel
transmission. This is the common case. That said, it is possible to
construct a traffic shaping tree that would result in reordering.
The guarantee is strong, then, but not ironclad.

This implementation supports send and sendpages (splice). GSO replaces
one large packet with multiple smaller packets. This patch also copies
the option into the correct smaller packet.

This patch does not yet support timestamping on data in an initial TCP
Fast Open SYN, because that takes a very different data path.

If ID generation in ee_data is enabled, bytestream timestamps return a
byte offset, instead of the packet counter for datagrams.

The implementation supports a single timestamp per packet. It silenty
replaces requests for previous timestamps. To avoid missing tstamps,
flush the tcp queue by disabling Nagle, cork and autocork. Missing
tstamps can be detected by offset when the ee_data ID is enabled.

Implementation details:

- On GSO, the timestamping code can be included in the main loop. I
moved it into its own loop to reduce the impact on the common case
to a single branch.

- To avoid leaking the absolute seqno to userspace, the offset
returned in ee_data must always be relative. It is an offset between
an skb and sk field. The first is always set (also for GSO & ACK).
The second must also never be uninitialized. Only allow the ID
option on sockets in the ESTABLISHED state, for which the seqno
is available. Never reset it to zero (instead, move it to the
current seqno when reenabling the option).

net-gre-gro: Add GRE support to the GRO stack

This patch built on top of Commit 299603e8370a93dd5d8e8d800f0dff1ce2c53d36
("net-gro: Prepare GRO stack for the upcoming tunneling support") to add
the support of the standard GRE (RFC1701/RFC2784/RFC2890) to the GRO
stack. It also serves as an example for supporting other encapsulation
protocols in the GRO stack in the future.

The patch supports version 0 and all the flags (key, csum, seq#) but
will flush any pkt with the S (seq#) flag. This is because the S flag
is not support by GSO, and a GRO pkt may end up in the forwarding path,
thus requiring GSO support to break it up correctly.

Currently the "packet_offload" structure only contains L3 (ETH_P_IP/
ETH_P_IPV6) GRO offload support so the encapped pkts are limited to
IP pkts (i.e., w/o L2 hdr). But support for other protocol type can
be easily added, so is the support for GRE variations like NVGRE.

The patch also support csum offload. Specifically if the csum flag is on
and the h/w is capable of checksumming the payload (CHECKSUM_COMPLETE),
the code will take advantage of the csum computed by the h/w when
validating the GRE csum.

Note that commit 60769a5dcd8755715c7143b4571d5c44f01796f1 "ipv4: gre:
add GRO capability" already introduces GRO capability to IPv4 GRE
tunnels, using the gro_cells infrastructure. But GRO is done after
GRE hdr has been removed (i.e., decapped). The following patch applies
GRO when pkts first come in (before hitting the GRE tunnel code). There
is some performance advantage for applying GRO as early as possible.
Also this approach is transparent to other subsystem like Open vSwitch
where GRE decap is handled outside of the IP stack hence making it
harder for the gro_cells stuff to apply. On the other hand, some NICs
are still not capable of hashing on the inner hdr of a GRE pkt (RSS).
In that case the GRO processing of pkts from the same remote host will
all happen on the same CPU and the performance may be suboptimal.

I'm including some rough preliminary performance numbers below. Note
that the performance will be highly dependent on traffic load, mix as
usual. Moreover it also depends on NIC offload features hence the
following is by no means a comprehesive study. Local testing and tuning
will be needed to decide the best setting.

All tests spawned 50 copies of netperf TCP_STREAM and ran for 30 secs.
(super_netperf 50 -H 192.168.1.18 -l 30)

An IP GRE tunnel with only the key flag on (e.g., ip tunnel add gre1
mode gre local 10.246.17.18 remote 10.246.17.17 ttl 255 key 123)
is configured.

The GRO support for pkts AFTER decap are controlled through the device
feature of the GRE device (e.g., ethtool -K gre1 gro on/off).

1.1 ethtool -K gre1 gro off; ethtool -K eth0 gro off
thruput: 9.16Gbps
CPU utilization: 19%

1.2 ethtool -K gre1 gro on; ethtool -K eth0 gro off
thruput: 5.9Gbps
CPU utilization: 15%

1.3 ethtool -K gre1 gro off; ethtool -K eth0 gro on

CPU utilization: 12-13%

1.4 ethtool -K gre1 gro on; ethtool -K eth0 gro on
thruput: 9.26Gbps
CPU utilization: 10%

The following tests were performed on a different NIC that is capable of
csum offload. I.e., the h/w is capable of computing IP payload csum
(CHECKSUM_COMPLETE).

2.1 ethtool -K gre1 gro on (hence will use gro_cells)

2.1.1 ethtool -K eth0 gro off; csum offload disabled
thruput: 8.53Gbps
CPU utilization: 9%

2.1.2 ethtool -K eth0 gro off; csum offload enabled

net-gro: Prepare GRO stack for the upcoming tunneling support

This patch modifies the GRO stack to avoid the use of "network_header"
and associated macros like ip_hdr() and ipv6_hdr() in order to allow
an arbitary number of IP hdrs (v4 or v6) to be used in the
encapsulation chain. This lays the foundation for various IP
tunneling support (IP-in-IP, GRE, VXLAN, SIT,...) to be added later.

With this patch, the GRO stack traversing now is mostly based on
skb_gro_offset rather than special hdr offsets saved in skb (e.g.,
skb->network_header). As a result all but the top layer (i.e., the
the transport layer) must have hdrs of the same length in order for
a pkt to be considered for aggregation. Therefore when adding a new
encap layer (e.g., for tunneling), one must check and skip flows
(e.g., by setting NAPI_GRO_CB(p)->same_flow to 0) that have a
different hdr length.

Note that unlike the network header, the transport header can and
will continue to be set by the GRO code since there will be at
most one "transport layer" in the encap chain.
