RACK loss detection
RACK (Recent ACK) loss recovery uses the notion of time instead of
packet sequence (FACK) or counts (dupthresh).
It's inspired by the FACK heuristic in tcp_mark_lost_retrans(): when a
limited transmit (new data packet) is sacked in recovery, then any
retransmission sent before that newly sacked packet was sent must have
been lost, since at least one round trip time has elapsed.
But that existing heuristic from tcp_mark_lost_retrans()
has several limitations:
1) it can't detect tail drops since it depends on limited transmit
2) it's disabled upon reordering (assumes no reordering)
3) it's only enabled in fast recovery but not timeout recovery
RACK addresses these limitations with a core idea: an unacknowledged
packet P1 is deemed lost if a packet P2 that was sent later is is
s/acked, since at least one round trip has passed.
Since RACK cares about the time sequence instead of the data sequence
of packets, it can detect tail drops when a later retransmission is
s/acked, while FACK or dupthresh can't. For reordering RACK uses a
dynamically adjusted reordering window ("reo_wnd") to reduce false
positives on ever (small) degree of reordering, similar to the delayed
Early Retransmit.
In the current patch set RACK is only a supplemental loss detection
and does not trigger fast recovery. However we are developing RACK
to replace or consolidate FACK/dupthresh, early retransmit, and
thin-dupack. These heuristics all implicitly bear the time notion.
For example, the delayed Early Retransmit is simply applying RACK
to trigger the fast recovery with small inflight.
RACK requires measuring the minimum RTT. Tracking a global min is less
robust due to traffic engineering pathing changes. Therefore it uses a
windowed filter by Kathleen Nichols. The min RTT can also be useful
for various other purposes like congestion control or stat monitoring.
This patch has been used on Google servers for well over 1 year. RACK
has also been implemented in the QUIC protocol. We are submitting an
IETF draft as well.

This patch implements the second half of RACK that uses the the most
recent transmit time among all delivered packets to detect losses.
tcp_rack_mark_lost() is called upon receiving a dubious ACK.
It then checks if an not-yet-sacked packet was sent at least
"reo_wnd" prior to the sent time of the most recently delivered.
If so the packet is deemed lost.
The "reo_wnd" reordering window starts with 1msec for fast loss
detection and changes to min-RTT/4 when reordering is observed.
We found 1msec accommodates well on tiny degree of reordering
(<3 pkts) on faster links. We use min-RTT instead of SRTT because
reordering is more of a path property but SRTT can be inflated by
self-inflicated congestion. The factor of 4 is borrowed from the
delayed early retransmit and seems to work reasonably well.
Since RACK is still experimental, it is now used as a supplemental
loss detection on top of existing algorithms. It is only effective
after the fast recovery starts or after the timeout occurs. The
fast recovery is still triggered by FACK and/or dupack threshold
instead of RACK.
We introduce a new sysctl net.ipv4.tcp_recovery for future
experiments of loss recoveries. For now RACK can be disabled by
setting it to 0.

This patch is the first half of the RACK loss recovery.
RACK loss recovery uses the notion of time instead
of packet sequence (FACK) or counts (dupthresh). It's inspired by the
previous FACK heuristic in tcp_mark_lost_retrans(): when a limited
transmit (new data packet) is sacked, then current retransmitted
sequence below the newly sacked sequence must been lost,
since at least one round trip time has elapsed.
But it has several limitations:
1) can't detect tail drops since it depends on limited transmit
2) is disabled upon reordering (assumes no reordering)
3) only enabled in fast recovery ut not timeout recovery
RACK (Recently ACK) addresses these limitations with the notion
of time instead: a packet P1 is lost if a later packet P2 is s/acked,
as at least one round trip has passed.
Since RACK cares about the time sequence instead of the data sequence
of packets, it can detect tail drops when later retransmission is
s/acked while FACK or dupthresh can't. For reordering RACK uses a
dynamically adjusted reordering window ("reo_wnd") to reduce false
positives on ever (small) degree of reordering.
This patch implements tcp_advanced_rack() which tracks the
most recent transmission time among the packets that have been
delivered (ACKed or SACKed) in tp->rack.mstamp. This timestamp
is the key to determine which packet has been lost.
Consider an example that the sender sends six packets:
T1: P1 (lost)
T2: P2
T3: P3
T4: P4
T100: sack of P2. rack.mstamp = T2
T101: retransmit P1
T102: sack of P2,P3,P4. rack.mstamp = T4
T205: ACK of P4 since the hole is repaired. rack.mstamp = T101
We need to be careful about spurious retransmission because it may
falsely advance tp->rack.mstamp by an RTT or an RTO, causing RACK
to falsely mark all packets lost, just like a spurious timeout.
We identify spurious retransmission by the ACK's TS echo value.
If TS option is not applicable but the retransmission is acknowledged
less than min-RTT ago, it is likely to be spurious. We refrain from
using the transmission time of these spurious retransmissions.
The second half is implemented in the next patch that marks packet
lost using RACK timestamp.

Kathleen Nichols' algorithm for tracking the minimum RTT of a
data stream over some measurement window. It uses constant space
and constant time per update. Yet it almost always delivers
the same minimum as an implementation that has to keep all
the data in the window. The measurement window is tunable via
sysctl.net.ipv4.tcp_min_rtt_wlen with a default value of 5 minutes.
The algorithm keeps track of the best, 2nd best & 3rd best min
values, maintaining an invariant that the measurement time of
the n'th best >= n-1'th best. It also makes sure that the three
values are widely separated in the time window since that bounds
the worse case error when that data is monotonically increasing
over the window.
Upon getting a new min, we can forget everything earlier because
it has no value - the new min is less than everything else in the
window by definition and it's the most recent. So we restart fresh
on every new min and overwrites the 2nd & 3rd choices. The same
property holds for the 2nd & 3rd best.
Therefore we have to maintain two invariants to maximize the
information in the samples, one on values (1st.v <= 2nd.v <=
3rd.v) and the other on times (now-win <=1st.t <= 2nd.t <= 3rd.t <=
now). These invariants determine the structure of the code
The RTT input to the windowed filter is the minimum RTT measured
from ACK or SACK, or as the last resort from TCP timestamps.
The accessor tcp_min_rtt() returns the minimum RTT seen in the
window. ~0U indicates it is not available. The minimum is 1usec
even if the true RTT is below that.

net, phy, smsc: add posibility to disable energy detect mode
On some boards the energy enable detect mode leads in
trouble with some switches, so make the enabling of
this mode configurable through DT.
Therefore the property "smsc,disable-energy-detect" is
introduced.
Patch 1 introduces phy-handle support for the ti,cpsw
driver. This is needed now for the smsc phy.
Patch 2 adds the disable energy mode functionality
to the smsc phy
Changes in v2:
- add comments from Florian Fainelli
- I did not change disable property name into enable
because I fear to break existing behaviour
- add smsc vendor prefix
- remove CONFIG_OF and use __maybe_unused
- introduce "phy-handle" ability into ti,cpsw
driver, so I can remove bogus:
if (!of_node && dev->parent->of_node)
of_node = dev->parent->of_node;
construct. Therefore new patch for the ti,cpsw
driver is necessary.

The hci_conn objects don't have a dedicated lock themselves but rely
on the caller to hold the hci_dev lock for most types of access. The
hci_conn_timeout() function has so far sent certain HCI commands based
on the hci_conn state which has been possible without holding the
hci_dev lock.
The recent changes to do LE scanning before connect attempts added
even more operations to hci_conn and hci_dev from hci_conn_timeout,
thereby exposing potential race conditions with the hci_dev and
hci_conn states.
As an example of such a race, here there's a timeout but an
l2cap_sock_connect() call manages to race with the cleanup routine:

Above the l2cap_chan_connect() shouldn't have been able to reach the
hci_conn f53d56e0 anymore but since hci_conn_timeout didn't do proper
locking that's not the case. The end result is a reference to hci_conn
that's not in the conn_hash list, resulting in list corruption when
trying to remove it later:

The necessary fix is unfortunately more complicated than just adding
hci_dev_lock/unlock calls to the hci_conn_timeout() call path.
Particularly, the hci_conn_del() API, which expects the hci_dev lock to
be held, performs a cancel_delayed_work_sync(&hcon->disc_work) which
would lead to a deadlock if the hci_conn_timeout() call path tries to
acquire the same lock.
This patch solves the problem by deferring the cleanup work to a
separate work callback. To protect against the hci_dev or hci_conn
going away meanwhile temporary references are taken with the help of
hci_dev_hold() and hci_conn_get().

This fixes a bug where it is possible for an off-line CPU to fail to go
into a low-power state (nap/sleep/winkle), and to become unresponsive to
requests from the KVM subsystem to wake up and run a VCPU. What can
happen is that a maskable interrupt of some kind (external, decrementer,
hypervisor doorbell, or HMI) after we have called local_irq_disable() at
the beginning of pnv_smp_cpu_kill_self() and before interrupts are
hard-disabled inside power7_nap/sleep/winkle(). In this situation, the
pending event is marked in the irq_happened flag in the PACA. This
pending event prevents power7_nap/sleep/winkle from going to the
requested low-power state; instead they return immediately. We don't
deal with any of these pending event flags in the off-line loop in
pnv_smp_cpu_kill_self() because power7_nap et al. return 0 in this case,
so we will have srr1 == 0, and none of the processing to clear
interrupts or doorbells will be done.
Usually, the most obvious symptom of this is that a KVM guest will fail
with a console message saying "KVM: couldn't grab cpu N".
This fixes the problem by making sure we handle the irq_happened flags
properly. First, we hard-disable before the off-line loop. Once we have
hard-disabled, the irq_happened flags can't change underneath us. We
unconditionally clear the DEC and HMI flags: there is no processing of
timer interrupts while off-line, and the necessary HMI processing is all
done in lower-level code. We leave the EE and DBELL flags alone for the
first iteration of the loop, so that we won't fail to respond to a
split-core request that came in just before hard-disabling. Within the
loop, we handle external interrupts if the EE bit is set in irq_happened
as well as if the low-power state was interrupted by an external
interrupt. (We don't need to do the msgclr for a pending doorbell in
irq_happened, because doorbells are edge-triggered and don't remain
pending in hardware.) Then we clear both the EE and DBELL flags, and
once clear, they cannot be set again (until this CPU comes online again,
that is).
This also fixes the debug check to not be done when we just ran a KVM
guest or when the sleep didn't happen because of a pending event in
irq_happened.

This reverts commit 9678cdaae9 ("Use the POWER8 Micro Partition
Prefetch Engine in KVM HV on POWER8") because the original commit had
multiple, partly self-cancelling bugs, that could cause occasional
memory corruption.
In fact the logmpp instruction was incorrectly using register r0 as the
source of the buffer address and operation code, and depending on what
was in r0, it would either do nothing or corrupt the 64k page pointed to
by r0.
The logmpp instruction encoding and the operation code definitions could
be corrected, but then there is the problem that there is no clearly
defined way to know when the hardware has finished writing to the
buffer.
The original commit attempted to work around this by aborting the
write-out before starting the prefetch, but this is ineffective in the
case where the virtual core is now executing on a different physical
core from the one where the write-out was initiated.
These problems plus advice from the hardware designers not to use the
function (since the measured performance improvement from using the
feature was actually mostly negative), mean that reverting the code is
the best option.

When a USB device gets disconnected due to for example removal
then it is possible that it is still in the loading phase due to
the asynchronous load routines. These routines can then possible
access memory which has been freed. Fix this by mutex locking the
device init phase.

Upon PSM watchdog event received from firmware the driver will obtain
a memory snapshot of the device and expose it to user-space through
the devcoredump framework. This will trigger a uevent.

This is an alternate driver for a number of Realtek WiFi USB devices,
including RTL8723AU, RTL8188CU, RTL8188RU, RTL8191CU, and RTL8192CU.
It was written from scratch utilizing the Linux mac80211 stack.
After spending months cleaning up the vendor provided rtl8723au
driver, which comes with it's own 802.11 stack included, I decided to
rewrite this driver from the bottom up.
Many thanks to Johannes Berg for 802.11 insights and help and Larry
Finger for help with the vendor driver.
The full git log for the development of this driver can be found here:
git git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jes/linux.git
branch rtl8723au-mac80211
This driver is still under development, but has proven to be very
stable for me. It currently supports station mode only. It has support
for OFDM and CCK rates. It does lack certain features found in the
staging driver, such as power management, AMPDU, and 40MHz channel
support. In addition it does not support AD-HOC, AP, and monitor mode
support at this point.
The driver is known to work with the following devices:
Lenovo Yoga (rtl8723au)
TP-Link TL-WN823N (rtl8192cu)
Etekcity 6R (rtl8188cu)
Daffodil LAN03 (rtl8188cu)
Alfa AWUS036NHR (rtl8188ru)

Current code will always truncate tailing page if its alloc_start is
smaller than inode size.
For example, the file extent layout is like:
0 4K 8K 16K 32K
|<-----Extent A---------------->|
|<--Inode size: 18K---------->|
But if calling fallocate even for range [0,4K), it will cause btrfs to
re-truncate the range [16,32K), causing COW and a new extent.
0 4K 8K 16K 32K
|///////| <- Fallocate call range
|<-----Extent A-------->|<--B-->|
The cause is quite easy, just a careless btrfs_truncate_inode() in a
else branch without extra judgment.
Fix it by add judgment on whether the fallocate range is beyond isize.

The code in stack tracer should not be executed within an NMI as it grabs
spinlocks and stack tracing an NMI gives the possibility of causing a
deadlock. Although this is safe on x86_64, because it does not perform stack
traces when the task struct stack is not in use (interrupts and NMIs), it
may be an issue for NMIs on i386 and other archs that use the same stack as
the NMI.

There is a L2CAP protocol race between the local peer and
the remote peer demanding disconnection of the L2CAP link.
When L2CAP ERTM is used, l2cap_sock_shutdown() can be called
from userland to disconnect L2CAP. However, there can be a
delay introduced by waiting for ACKs. During this waiting
period, the remote peer may have sent a Disconnection Request.
Therefore, recheck the shutdown status of the socket
after waiting for ACKs because there is no need to do
further processing if the connection has gone.

This commit reorganizes the mutex lock and is now
only protecting l2cap_chan_close(). This is now consistent
with other places where l2cap_chan_close() is called.
If a conn connection exists, call
mutex_lock(&conn->chan_lock) before calling l2cap_chan_close()
to ensure other L2CAP protocol operations do not interfere.
Note that the conn structure has to be protected from being
freed as it is possible for the connection to be disconnected
whilst the locks are not held. This solution allows the mutex
lock to be used even when the connection has just been
disconnected.
This commit also reduces the scope of chan locking.
The only place where chan locking is needed is the call to
l2cap_chan_close(chan, 0) which if necessary closes the channel.
Therefore, move the l2cap_chan_lock(chan) and
l2cap_chan_lock(chan) locking calls to around
l2cap_chan_close(chan, 0).
This allows __l2cap_wait_ack(sk, chan) to be called with no
chan locks being held so L2CAP messaging over the ACL link
can be done unimpaired.

l2cap_sock_shutdown() is designed to only action shutdown
of the channel when shutdown is not already in progress.
Therefore, reorganise the code flow by adding a goto
to jump to the end of function handling when shutdown is
already being actioned. This removes one level of code
indentation and make the code more readable.

This patch reworks the handling of compression/decompression of traffic
class and flow label handling. The current method is hard to understand,
also doesn't checks if we can read the buffer from skb length.
I tried to put the shifting operations into static inline functions and
comment each steps which I did there to make it hopefully somewhat more
readable. The big mess to deal with that is the that the ipv6 header
bring the order "DSCP + ECN" but iphc uses "ECN + DSCP". Additional the
DCSP + ECN bits are splitted in ipv6_hdr inside the priority and
flow_lbl[0] fields.
I tested these compressions by using fakelb 802.15.4 driver and
manipulate the tc and flow label fields manually in function
"__ip6_local_out" before the skb will be send to lower layers. Then I
looked up the tc and flow label fields in wireshark on a wpan and lowpan
interface.

This patch has the main goal to delete shift operations. Instead we
doing masks and equals afterwards. E.g. for the SAM evaluation we
masking only the SAM value which fits in iphc1 byte, then comparing with
all possible SAM values over a switch case statement. We will not
shifting the SAM value to somewhat readable anymore.
Additional this patch slighty change the naming style like RFC 6282,
e.g. TTL to HLIM and we will drop an errno now if CID flag is set,
because we don't support it.
