tcp: SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_STATS option for SO_TIMESTAMPING

2016-11-30T15:04:25+00:00

This patch exports the sender chronograph stats via the socket SO_TIMESTAMPING channel. Currently we can instrument how long a particular application unit of data was queued in TCP by tracking SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_SOFTWARE and SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_SCHED. Having these sender chronograph stats exported simultaneously along with these timestamps allow further breaking down the various sender limitation. For example, a video server can tell if a particular chunk of video on a connection takes a long time to deliver because TCP was experiencing small receive window. It is not possible to tell before this patch without packet traces. To prepare these stats, the user needs to set SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_STATS and SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_TSONLY flags while requesting other SOF_TIMESTAMPING TX timestamps. When the timestamps are available in the error queue, the stats are returned in a separate control message of type SCM_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_STATS, in a list of TLVs (struct nlattr) of types: TCP_NLA_BUSY_TIME, TCP_NLA_RWND_LIMITED, TCP_NLA_SNDBUF_LIMITED. Unit is microsecond. Signed-off-by: Francis Yan Signed-off-by: Yuchung Cheng Signed-off-by: Soheil Hassas Yeganeh Acked-by: Neal Cardwell Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: Facility to report route quality of connected sockets

2016-02-26T03:01:22+00:00

This patch add the SO_CNX_ADVICE socket option (setsockopt only). The purpose is to allow an application to give feedback to the kernel about the quality of the network path for a connected socket. The value argument indicates the type of quality report. For this initial patch the only supported advice is a value of 1 which indicates "bad path, please reroute"-- the action taken by the kernel is to call dst_negative_advice which will attempt to choose a different ECMP route, reset the TX hash for flow label and UDP source port in encapsulation, etc. This facility should be useful for connected UDP sockets where only the application can provide any feedback about path quality. It could also be useful for TCP applications that have additional knowledge about the path outside of the normal TCP control loop. Signed-off-by: Tom Herbert Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

soreuseport: setsockopt SO_ATTACH_REUSEPORT_[CE]BPF

2016-01-05T03:49:59+00:00

Expose socket options for setting a classic or extended BPF program for use when selecting sockets in an SO_REUSEPORT group. These options can be used on the first socket to belong to a group before bind or on any socket in the group after bind. This change includes refactoring of the existing sk_filter code to allow reuse of the existing BPF filter validation checks.
