tcp: correct handling of extreme memory squeeze

tcp: correct handling of extreme memory squeeze

[ Upstream commit 8c670bdfa58e48abad1d5b6ca1ee843ca91f7303 ]

Testing with iperf3 using the "pasta" protocol splicer has revealed
a problem in the way tcp handles window advertising in extreme memory
squeeze situations.

Under memory pressure, a socket endpoint may temporarily advertise
a zero-sized window, but this is not stored as part of the socket data.
The reasoning behind this is that it is considered a temporary setting
which shouldn't influence any further calculations.

However, if we happen to stall at an unfortunate value of the current
window size, the algorithm selecting a new value will consistently fail
to advertise a non-zero window once we have freed up enough memory.
This means that this side's notion of the current window size is
different from the one last advertised to the peer, causing the latter
to not send any data to resolve the sitution.

The problem occurs on the iperf3 server side, and the socket in question
is a completely regular socket with the default settings for the
fedora40 kernel. We do not use SO_PEEK or SO_RCVBUF on the socket.

The following excerpt of a logging session, with own comments added,
shows more in detail what is happening:

Note that well behaved endpoints will send win0 probes, so the problem
will not occur.

Furthermore, we have observed that in these situations this side may
send out an updated 'th->ack_seq´ which is not stored in tp->rcv_wup
as it should be. Backing ack_seq seems to be harmless, but is of
course still wrong from a protocol viewpoint.

We fix this by updating the socket state correctly when a packet has
been dropped because of memory exhaustion and we have to advertize
a zero window.

Further testing shows that the connection recovers neatly from the
squeeze situation, and traffic can continue indefinitely.

Additionally syzkaller provided a nice reproducer. The repro enables
pmtu on the loopback device, leading to tcp_mtu_probe() generating
very large probe packets.

tcp_can_coalesce_send_queue_head() currently does not check for
mptcp-level invariants, and allowed the creation of cross-DSS probes,
leading to the mentioned corruption.

Address the issue teaching tcp_can_coalesce_send_queue_head() about
mptcp using the tcp_skb_can_collapse(), also reducing the code
duplication.

tcp: defer shutdown(SEND_SHUTDOWN) for TCP_SYN_RECV sockets

[ Upstream commit 94062790aedb505bdda209b10bea47b294d6394f ]

TCP_SYN_RECV state is really special, it is only used by
cross-syn connections, mostly used by fuzzers.

In the following crash [1], syzbot managed to trigger a divide
by zero in tcp_rcv_space_adjust()

A socket makes the following state transitions,
without ever calling tcp_init_transfer(),
meaning tcp_init_buffer_space() is also not called.

TCP_CLOSE
connect()
TCP_SYN_SENT
TCP_SYN_RECV
shutdown() -> tcp_shutdown(sk, SEND_SHUTDOWN)
TCP_FIN_WAIT1

To fix this issue, change tcp_shutdown() to not
perform a TCP_SYN_RECV -> TCP_FIN_WAIT1 transition,
which makes no sense anyway.

When tcp_rcv_state_process() later changes socket state
from TCP_SYN_RECV to TCP_ESTABLISH, then look at
sk->sk_shutdown to finally enter TCP_FIN_WAIT1 state,
and send a FIN packet from a sane socket state.

This means tcp_send_fin() can now be called from BH
context, and must use GFP_ATOMIC allocations.

tcp: derive delack_max from rto_min

[ Upstream commit bbf80d713fe75cfbecda26e7c03a9a8d22af2f4f ]

While BPF allows to set icsk->->icsk_delack_max
and/or icsk->icsk_rto_min, we have an ip route
attribute (RTAX_RTO_MIN) to be able to tune rto_min,
but nothing to consequently adjust max delayed ack,
which vary from 40ms to 200 ms (TCP_DELACK_{MIN|MAX}).

This makes RTAX_RTO_MIN of almost no practical use,
unless customers are in big trouble.

Modern days datacenter communications want to set
rto_min to ~5 ms, and the max delayed ack one jiffie
smaller to avoid spurious retransmits.

After this patch, an "rto_min 5" route attribute will
effectively lower max delayed ack timers to 4 ms.

The panic issue was trigered by tcp simultaneous initiation.
The initiation process is as follows:

TCP A TCP B

1. CLOSED CLOSED

2. SYN-SENT --> <SEQ=100><CTL=SYN> ...

3. SYN-RECEIVED <-- <SEQ=300><CTL=SYN> <-- SYN-SENT

4. ... <SEQ=100><CTL=SYN> --> SYN-RECEIVED

5. SYN-RECEIVED --> <SEQ=100><ACK=301><CTL=SYN,ACK> ...

// TCP B: not send challenge ack for ack limit or packet loss
// TCP A: close
tcp_close
tcp_send_fin
if (!tskb && tcp_under_memory_pressure(sk))
tskb = skb_rb_last(&sk->tcp_rtx_queue); //pick SYN_ACK packet
TCP_SKB_CB(tskb)->tcp_flags |= TCPHDR_FIN; // set FIN flag

6. FIN_WAIT_1 --> <SEQ=100><ACK=301><END_SEQ=102><CTL=SYN,FIN,ACK> ...

// TCP B: send challenge ack to SYN_FIN_ACK

7. ... <SEQ=301><ACK=101><CTL=ACK> <-- SYN-RECEIVED //challenge ack

// TCP A: <SND.UNA=101>

8. FIN_WAIT_1 --> <SEQ=101><ACK=301><END_SEQ=102><CTL=SYN,FIN,ACK> ... // retransmit panic

__tcp_retransmit_skb //skb->len=0
tcp_trim_head
len = tp->snd_una - TCP_SKB_CB(skb)->seq // len=101-100
__pskb_trim_head
skb->data_len -= len // skb->len=-1, wrap around
... ...
ip_fragment
icmp_glue_bits //BUG_ON

If we use tcp_trim_head() to remove acked SYN from packet that contains data
or other flags, skb->len will be incorrectly decremented. We can remove SYN
flag that has been acked from rtx_queue earlier than tcp_trim_head(), which
can fix the problem mentioned above.

"Including fixes from bluetooth, netfilter, WiFi.

Feels like an up-tick in regression fixes, mostly for older releases.
The hfsc fix, tcp_disconnect() and Intel WWAN fixes stand out as
fairly clear-cut user reported regressions. The mlx5 DMA bug was
causing strife for 390x folks. The fixes themselves are not
particularly scary, tho. No open investigations / outstanding reports
at the time of writing.

Current release - regressions:

- eth: mlx5: perform DMA operations in the right locations, make
devices usable on s390x, again

- sched: sch_hfsc: upgrade 'rt' to 'sc' when it becomes a inner
curve, previous fix of rejecting invalid config broke some scripts

- rfkill: reduce data->mtx scope in rfkill_fop_open, avoid deadlock

- revert "ethtool: Fix mod state of verbose no_mask bitset", needs
more work

Current release - new code bugs:

- tcp: fix listen() warning with v4-mapped-v6 address

Previous releases - regressions:

- tcp: allow tcp_disconnect() again when threads are waiting, it was
denied to plug a constant source of bugs but turns out .NET depends
on it

- eth: mlx5: fix double-free if buffer refill fails under OOM

- revert "net: wwan: iosm: enable runtime pm support for 7560", it's
causing regressions and the WWAN team at Intel disappeared

- tcp: tsq: relax tcp_small_queue_check() when rtx queue contains a
single skb, fix single-stream perf regression on some devices

Previous releases - always broken:

- Bluetooth:
- fix issues in legacy BR/EDR PIN code pairing
- correctly bounds check and pad HCI_MON_NEW_INDEX name

- netfilter:
- more fixes / follow ups for the large "commit protocol" rework,
which went in as a fix to 6.5
- fix null-derefs on netlink attrs which user may not pass in

- tcp: fix excessive TLP and RACK timeouts from HZ rounding (bless
Debian for keeping HZ=250 alive)

- net: more strict VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_UDP_L4 validation, prevent
letting frankenstein UDP super-frames from getting into the stack

- net: fix interface altnames when ifc moves to a new namespace

- eth: qed: fix the size of the RX buffers

tcp: tsq: relax tcp_small_queue_check() when rtx queue contains a single skb

In commit 75eefc6c59fd ("tcp: tsq: add a shortcut in tcp_small_queue_check()")
we allowed to send an skb regardless of TSQ limits being hit if rtx queue
was empty or had a single skb, in order to better fill the pipe
when/if TX completions were slow.

Then later, commit 75c119afe14f ("tcp: implement rb-tree based
retransmit queue") accidentally removed the special case for
one skb in rtx queue.

Stefan Wahren reported a regression in single TCP flow throughput
using a 100Mbit fec link, starting from commit 65466904b015 ("tcp: adjust
TSO packet sizes based on min_rtt"). This last commit only made the
regression more visible, because it locked the TCP flow on a particular
behavior where TSQ prevented two skbs being pushed downstream,
adding silences on the wire between each TSO packet.

Many thanks to Stefan for his invaluable help !

tcp: fix excessive TLP and RACK timeouts from HZ rounding

We discovered from packet traces of slow loss recovery on kernels with
the default HZ=250 setting (and min_rtt < 1ms) that after reordering,
when receiving a SACKed sequence range, the RACK reordering timer was
firing after about 16ms rather than the desired value of roughly
min_rtt/4 + 2ms. The problem is largely due to the RACK reorder timer
calculation adding in TCP_TIMEOUT_MIN, which is 2 jiffies. On kernels
with HZ=250, this is 2*4ms = 8ms. The TLP timer calculation has the
exact same issue.

This commit fixes the TLP transmit timer and RACK reordering timer
floor calculation to more closely match the intended 2ms floor even on
kernels with HZ=250. It does this by adding in a new
TCP_TIMEOUT_MIN_US floor of 2000 us and then converting to jiffies,
instead of the current approach of converting to jiffies and then
adding th TCP_TIMEOUT_MIN value of 2 jiffies.

Our testing has verified that on kernels with HZ=1000, as expected,
this does not produce significant changes in behavior, but on kernels
with the default HZ=250 the latency improvement can be large. For
example, our tests show that for HZ=250 kernels at low RTTs this fix
roughly halves the latency for the RACK reorder timer: instead of
mostly firing at 16ms it mostly fires at 8ms.

"Including fixes from Bluetooth, netfilter, BPF and WiFi.

I didn't collect precise data but feels like we've got a lot of 6.5
fixes here. WiFi fixes are most user-awaited.

Current release - regressions:

- Bluetooth: fix hci_link_tx_to RCU lock usage

Current release - new code bugs:

- bpf: mprog: fix maximum program check on mprog attachment

- eth: ti: icssg-prueth: fix signedness bug in prueth_init_tx_chns()

Previous releases - regressions:

- ipv6: tcp: add a missing nf_reset_ct() in 3WHS handling

- vringh: don't use vringh_kiov_advance() in vringh_iov_xfer(), it
doesn't handle zero length like we expected

- wifi:
- cfg80211: fix cqm_config access race, fix crashes with brcmfmac
- iwlwifi: mvm: handle PS changes in vif_cfg_changed
- mac80211: fix mesh id corruption on 32 bit systems
- mt76: mt76x02: fix MT76x0 external LNA gain handling

- Bluetooth: fix handling of HCI_QUIRK_STRICT_DUPLICATE_FILTER

- l2tp: fix handling of transhdrlen in __ip{,6}_append_data()

- dsa: mv88e6xxx: avoid EEPROM timeout when EEPROM is absent

- eth: stmmac: fix the incorrect parameter after refactoring

Previous releases - always broken:

- net: replace calls to sock->ops->connect() with kernel_connect(),
prevent address rewrite in kernel_bind(); otherwise BPF hooks may
modify arguments, unexpectedly to the caller

- tcp: fix delayed ACKs when reads and writes align with MSS

- bpf:
- verifier: unconditionally reset backtrack_state masks on global
func exit
- s390: let arch_prepare_bpf_trampoline return program size, fix
struct_ops offsets
- sockmap: fix accounting of available bytes in presence of PEEKs
- sockmap: reject sk_msg egress redirects to non-TCP sockets

- ipv4/fib: send netlink notify when delete source address routes

- ethtool: plca: fix width of reads when parsing netlink commands

- netfilter: nft_payload: rebuild vlan header on h_proto access

- Bluetooth: hci_codec: fix leaking memory of local_codecs

- eth: intel: ice: always add legacy 32byte RXDID in supported_rxdids

- eth: stmmac:
- dwmac-stm32: fix resume on STM32 MCU
- remove buggy and unneeded stmmac_poll_controller, depend on NAPI

- ibmveth: always recompute TCP pseudo-header checksum, fix use of
the driver with Open vSwitch

- wifi:
- rtw88: rtw8723d: fix MAC address offset in EEPROM
- mt76: fix lock dependency problem for wed_lock
- mwifiex: sanity check data reported by the device
- iwlwifi: ensure ack flag is properly cleared
- iwlwifi: mvm: fix a memory corruption due to bad pointer arithm
- iwlwifi: mvm: fix incorrect usage of scan API

Misc:

- wifi: mac80211: work around Cisco AP 9115 VHT MPDU length"

tcp: fix quick-ack counting to count actual ACKs of new data

This commit fixes quick-ack counting so that it only considers that a
quick-ack has been provided if we are sending an ACK that newly
ack

tcp: fix quick-ack counting to count actual ACKs of new data

This commit fixes quick-ack counting so that it only considers that a
quick-ack has been provided if we are sending an ACK that newly
acknowledges data.

The code was erroneously using the number of data segments in outgoing
skbs when deciding how many quick-ack credits to remove. This logic
does not make sense, and could cause poor performance in
request-response workloads, like RPC traffic, where requests or
responses can be multi-segment skbs.

When a TCP connection decides to send N quick-acks, that is to
accelerate the cwnd growth of the congestion control module
controlling the remote endpoint of the TCP connection. That quick-ack
decision is purely about the incoming data and outgoing ACKs. It has
nothing to do with the outgoing data or the size of outgoing data.

And in particular, an ACK only serves the intended purpose of allowing
the remote congestion control to grow the congestion window quickly if
the ACK is ACKing or SACKing new data.

The fix is simple: only count packets as serving the goal of the
quickack mechanism if they are ACKing/SACKing new data. We can tell
whether this is the case by checking inet_csk_ack_scheduled(), since
we schedule an ACK exactly when we are ACKing/SACKing new data.
