socket: Rename SO_RCVTIMEO/ SO_SNDTIMEO with _OLD suffixes

2019-02-03T19:17:31+00:00

SO_RCVTIMEO and SO_SNDTIMEO socket options use struct timeval as the time format. struct timeval is not y2038 safe. The subsequent patches in the series add support for new socket timeout options with _NEW suffix that will use y2038 safe data structures. Although the existing struct timeval layout is sufficiently wide to represent timeouts, because of the way libc will interpret time_t based on user defined flag, these new flags provide a way of having a structure that is the same for all architectures consistently. Rename the existing options with _OLD suffix forms so that the right option is enabled for userspace applications according to the architecture and time_t definition of libc.

License cleanup: add SPDX license identifier to uapi header files with a license

2017-11-02T10:20:11+00:00

Many user space API headers have licensing information, which is either incomplete, badly formatted or just a shorthand for referring to the license under which the file is supposed to be. This makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license. Update these files with an SPDX license identifier. The identifier was chosen based on the license information in the file. GPL/LGPL licensed headers get the matching GPL/LGPL SPDX license identifier with the added 'WITH Linux-syscall-note' exception, which is the officially assigned exception identifier for the kernel syscall exception: NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work". This exception makes it possible to include GPL headers into non GPL code, without confusing license compliance tools. Headers which have either explicit dual licensing or are just licensed under a non GPL license are updated with the corresponding SPDX identifier and the GPLv2 with syscall exception identifier. The format is: ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR SPDX-ID-OF-OTHER-LICENSE) SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. The update does not remove existing license information as this has to be done on a case by case basis and the copyright holders might have to be consulted. This will happen in a separate step. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. See the previous patch in this series for the methodology of how this patch was researched.

powerpc: use asm-generic/socket.h as much as possible

New getsockopt option to get socket cookie

2017-04-08T15:07:01+00:00

Introduce a new getsockopt operation to retrieve the socket cookie for a specific socket based on the socket fd. It returns a unique non-decreasing cookie for each socket.

net: Introduce SO_INCOMING_NAPI_ID

2017-03-25T03:49:31+00:00

This socket option returns the NAPI ID associated with the queue on which the last frame is received. This information can be used by the apps to split the incoming flows among the threads based on the Rx queue on which they are received. If the NAPI ID actually represents a sender_cpu then the value is ignored and 0 is returned.

sock: introduce SO_MEMINFO getsockopt

2017-03-22T18:18:58+00:00

Allows reading of SK_MEMINFO_VARS via socket option. This way an application can get all meminfo related information in single socket option call instead of multiple calls. Adds helper function, sk_get_meminfo(), and uses that for both getsockopt and sock_diag_put_meminfo(). Suggested by Eric Dumazet.

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.
