tcp_bbr: adapt cwnd based on ack aggregation estimation

2020-09-26T16:01:32Z

commit 78dc70ebaa38aa303274e333be6c98eef87619e2 upstream. Aggregation effects are extremely common with wifi, cellular, and cable modem link technologies, ACK decimation in middleboxes, and LRO and GRO in receiving hosts. The aggregation can happen in either direction, data or ACKs, but in either case the aggregation effect is visible to the sender in the ACK stream. Previously BBR's sending was often limited by cwnd under severe ACK aggregation/decimation because BBR sized the cwnd at 2*BDP. If packets were acked in bursts after long delays (e.g. one ACK acking 5*BDP after 5*RTT), BBR's sending was halted after sending 2*BDP over 2*RTT, leaving the bottleneck idle for potentially long periods. Note that loss-based congestion control does not have this issue because when facing aggregation it continues increasing cwnd after bursts of ACKs, growing cwnd until the buffer is full. To achieve good throughput in the presence of aggregation effects, this algorithm allows the BBR sender to put extra data in flight to keep the bottleneck utilized during silences in the ACK stream that it has evidence to suggest were caused by aggregation. A summary of the algorithm: when a burst of packets are acked by a stretched ACK or a burst of ACKs or both, BBR first estimates the expected amount of data that should have been acked, based on its estimated bandwidth. Then the surplus ("extra_acked") is recorded in a windowed-max filter to estimate the recent level of observed ACK aggregation. Then cwnd is increased by the ACK aggregation estimate. The larger cwnd avoids BBR being cwnd-limited in the face of ACK silences that recent history suggests were caused by aggregation. As a sanity check, the ACK aggregation degree is upper-bounded by the cwnd (at the time of measurement) and a global max of BW * 100ms. The algorithm is further described by the following presentation: https://datatracker.ietf.org/meeting/101/materials/slides-101-iccrg-an-update-on-bbr-work-at-google-00 In our internal testing, we observed a significant increase in BBR throughput (measured using netperf), in a basic wifi setup. - Host1 (sender on ethernet) -> AP -> Host2 (receiver on wifi) - 2.4 GHz -> BBR before: ~73 Mbps; BBR after: ~102 Mbps; CUBIC: ~100 Mbps - 5.0 GHz -> BBR before: ~362 Mbps; BBR after: ~593 Mbps; CUBIC: ~601 Mbps Also, this code is running globally on YouTube TCP connections and produced significant bandwidth increases for YouTube traffic. This is based on Ian Swett's max_ack_height_ algorithm from the QUIC BBR implementation.

KVM: MIPS: Change the definition of kvm type

2020-09-23T10:10:59Z

[ Upstream commit 15e9e35cd1dec2bc138464de6bf8ef828df19235 ] MIPS defines two kvm types: #define KVM_VM_MIPS_TE 0 #define KVM_VM_MIPS_VZ 1 In Documentation/virt/kvm/api.rst it is said that "You probably want to use 0 as machine type", which implies that type 0 be the "automatic" or "default" type. And, in user-space libvirt use the null-machine (with type 0) to detect the kvm capability, which returns "KVM not supported" on a VZ platform. I try to fix it in QEMU but it is ugly: https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2020-08/msg05629.html And Thomas Huth suggests me to change the definition of kvm type: https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2020-09/msg03281.html So I define like this: #define KVM_VM_MIPS_AUTO 0 #define KVM_VM_MIPS_VZ 1 #define KVM_VM_MIPS_TE 2 Since VZ and TE cannot co-exists, using type 0 on a TE platform will still return success (so old user-space tools have no problems on new kernels); the advantage is that using type 0 on a VZ platform will not return failure. So, the only problem is "new user-space tools use type 2 on old kernels", but if we treat this as a kernel bug, we can backport this patch to old stable kernels.

i2c: algo: pca: Reapply i2c bus settings after reset

[ Upstream commit 0a355aeb24081e4538d4d424cd189f16c0bbd983 ] If something goes wrong (such as the SCL being stuck low) then we need to reset the PCA chip. The issue with this is that on reset we lose all config settings and the chip ends up in a disabled state which results in a lock up/high CPU usage. We need to re-apply any configuration that had previously been set and re-enable the chip.

netfilter: conntrack: allow sctp hearbeat after connection re-use

[ Upstream commit cc5453a5b7e90c39f713091a7ebc53c1f87d1700 ] If an sctp connection gets re-used, heartbeats are flagged as invalid because their vtag doesn't match. Handle this in a similar way as TCP conntrack when it suspects that the endpoints and conntrack are out-of-sync. When a HEARTBEAT request fails its vtag validation, flag this in the conntrack state and accept the packet. When a HEARTBEAT_ACK is received with an invalid vtag in the reverse direction after we allowed such a HEARTBEAT through, assume we are out-of-sync and re-set the vtag info. v2: remove left-over snippet from an older incarnation that moved new_state/old_state assignments, thats not needed so keep that as-is.

libata: implement ATA_HORKAGE_MAX_TRIM_128M and apply to Sandisks

2020-09-09T17:04:31Z

commit 3b5455636fe26ea21b4189d135a424a6da016418 upstream. All three generations of Sandisk SSDs lock up hard intermittently. Experiments showed that disabling NCQ lowered the failure rate significantly and the kernel has been disabling NCQ for some models of SD7's and 8's, which is obviously undesirable. Karthik worked with Sandisk to root cause the hard lockups to trim commands larger than 128M. This patch implements ATA_HORKAGE_MAX_TRIM_128M which limits max trim size to 128M and applies it to all three generations of Sandisk SSDs.

uaccess: Add non-pagefault user-space write function

uaccess: Add non-pagefault user-space read functions

2020-09-09T17:04:29Z

[ Upstream commit 3d7081822f7f9eab867d9bcc8fd635208ec438e0 ] Add probe_user_read(), strncpy_from_unsafe_user() and strnlen_unsafe_user() which allows caller to access user-space in IRQ context. Current probe_kernel_read() and strncpy_from_unsafe() are not available for user-space memory, because it sets KERNEL_DS while accessing data. On some arch, user address space and kernel address space can be co-exist, but others can not. In that case, setting KERNEL_DS means given address is treated as a kernel address space. Also strnlen_user() is only available from user context since it can sleep if pagefault is enabled. To access user-space memory without pagefault, we need these new functions which sets USER_DS while accessing the data.
