Zapping pages is required only if we are calling vm_insert_page into a
region where pages had previously been mapped. Receive zerocopy allows
reusing such regions, and hitherto called zap_page_range() before
calling vm_insert_page() in that range.
zap_page_range() can also be triggered from userspace with
madvise(MADV_DONTNEED). If userspace is configured to call this before
reusing a segment, or if there was nothing mapped at this virtual
address to begin with, we can avoid calling zap_page_range() under the
socket lock. That said, if userspace does not do that, then we are
still responsible for calling zap_page_range().
This patch adds a flag that the user can use to hint to the kernel
that a zap is not required. If the flag is not set, or if an older
user application does not have a flags field at all, then the kernel
calls zap_page_range as before. Also, if the flag is set but a zap is
still required, the kernel performs that zap as necessary. Thus
incorrectly indicating that a zap can be avoided does not change the
correctness of operation. It also increases the batchsize for
vm_insert_pages and prefetches the page struct for the batch since
we're about to bump the refcount.
An alternative mechanism could be to not have a flag, assume by
default a zap is not needed, and fall back to zapping if needed.
However, this would harm performance for older applications for which
a zap is necessary, and thus we implement it with an explicit flag
so newer applications can opt in.

When TCP receive zerocopy does not successfully map the entire
requested space, it outputs a 'hint' that the caller should recvmsg().
Augment zerocopy to accept a user buffer that it tries to copy this
hint into - if it is possible to copy the entire hint, it will do so.
This elides a recvmsg() call for received traffic that isn't exactly
page-aligned in size.
This was tested with RPC-style traffic of arbitrary sizes. Normally,
each received message required at least one getsockopt() call, and one
recvmsg() call for the remaining unaligned data.
With this change, almost all of the recvmsg() calls are eliminated,
leading to a savings of about 25%-50% in number of system calls
for RPC-style workloads.

This patchset is intended to reduce the number of extra system calls
imposed by TCP receive zerocopy. For ping-pong RPC style workloads,
this patchset has demonstrated a system call reduction of about 30%
when coupled with userspace changes.
For applications using epoll, returning sk_err along with the result
of tcp receive zerocopy could remove the need to call
recvmsg()=-EAGAIN after a spurious wakeup.
Consider a multi-threaded application using epoll. A thread may awaken
with EPOLLIN but another thread may already be reading. The
spuriously-awoken thread does not necessarily know that another thread
'won'; rather, it may be possible that it was woken up due to the
presence of an error if there is no data. A zerocopy read receiving 0
bytes thus would need to be followed up by recvmsg to be sure.
Instead, we return sk_err directly with zerocopy, so the application
can avoid this extra system call.

The TCPI_OPT_SYN_DATA bit as part of tcpi_options currently reports whether
or not data-in-SYN was ack'd on both the client and server side. We'd like
to gather more information on the client-side in the failure case in order
to indicate the reason for the failure. This can be useful for not only
debugging TFO, but also for creating TFO socket policies. For example, if
a middle box removes the TFO option or drops a data-in-SYN, we can
can detect this case, and turn off TFO for these connections saving the
extra retransmits.
The newly added tcpi_fastopen_client_fail status is 2 bits and has the
following 4 states:
1) TFO_STATUS_UNSPEC
Catch-all state which includes when TFO is disabled via black hole
detection, which is indicated via LINUX_MIB_TCPFASTOPENBLACKHOLE.
2) TFO_COOKIE_UNAVAILABLE
If TFO_CLIENT_NO_COOKIE mode is off, this state indicates that no cookie
is available in the cache.
3) TFO_DATA_NOT_ACKED
Data was sent with SYN, we received a SYN/ACK but it did not cover the data
portion. Cookie is not accepted by server because the cookie may be invalid
or the server may be overloaded.
4) TFO_SYN_RETRANSMITTED
Data was sent with SYN, we received a SYN/ACK which did not cover the data
after at least 1 additional SYN was sent (without data). It may be the case
that a middle-box is dropping data-in-SYN packets. Thus, it would be more
efficient to not use TFO on this connection to avoid extra retransmits
during connection establishment.
These new fields do not cover all the cases where TFO may fail, but other
failures, such as SYN/ACK + data being dropped, will result in the
connection not becoming established. And a connection blackhole after
session establishment shows up as a stalled connection.

tracks out-of-order packet reception. By providing this counter in
TCP_INFO, it will allow understanding to what degree receive-heavy
sockets are experiencing out-of-order delivery and packet drops
indicating congestion.
Please note that this is similar to the counter in NetBSD TCP_INFO, and

Adding delays to TCP flows is crucial for studying behavior
of TCP stacks, including congestion control modules.
Linux offers netem module, but it has unpractical constraints :
- Need root access to change qdisc
- Hard to setup on egress if combined with non trivial qdisc like FQ
- Single delay for all flows.
EDT (Earliest Departure Time) adoption in TCP stack allows us
to enable a per socket delay at a very small cost.
Networking tools can now establish thousands of flows, each of them
with a different delay, simulating real world conditions.
This requires FQ packet scheduler or a EDT-enabled NIC.
This patchs adds TCP_TX_DELAY socket option, to set a delay in
usec units.
unsigned int tx_delay = 10000; /* 10 msec */
setsockopt(fd, SOL_TCP, TCP_TX_DELAY, &tx_delay, sizeof(tx_delay));
Note that FQ packet scheduler limits might need some tweaking :
man tc-fq
PARAMETERS
limit
Hard limit on the real queue size. When this limit is
reached, new packets are dropped. If the value is lowered,
packets are dropped so that the new limit is met. Default
is 10000 packets.
flow_limit
Hard limit on the maximum number of packets queued per
flow. Default value is 100.
Use of TCP_TX_DELAY option will increase number of skbs in FQ qdisc,
so packets would be dropped if any of the previous limit is hit.
Use of a jump label makes this support runtime-free, for hosts
never using the option.
Also note that TSQ (TCP Small Queues) limits are slightly changed
with this patch : we need to account that skbs artificially delayed
wont stop us providind more skbs to feed the pipe (netem uses
skb_orphan_partial() for this purpose, but FQ can not use this trick)
Because of that, using big delays might very well trigger
old bugs in TSO auto defer logic and/or sndbuf limited detection.

Applications with many concurrent connections, high variance
in receive queue length and tight memory bounds cannot
allocate worst-case buffer size to drain sockets. Knowing
the size of receive queue length, applications can optimize
how they allocate buffers to read from the socket.
The number of bytes pending on the socket is directly
available through ioctl(FIONREAD/SIOCINQ) and can be
approximated using getsockopt(MEMINFO) (rmem_alloc includes
skb overheads in addition to application data). But, both of
these options add an extra syscall per recvmsg. Moreover,
ioctl(FIONREAD/SIOCINQ) takes the socket lock.
Add the TCP_INQ socket option to TCP. When this socket
option is set, recvmsg() relays the number of bytes available
on the socket for reading to the application via the
TCP_CM_INQ control message.
Calculate the number of bytes after releasing the socket lock
to include the processed backlog, if any. To avoid an extra
branch in the hot path of recvmsg() for this new control
message, move all cmsg processing inside an existing branch for
processing receive timestamps. Since the socket lock is not held
when calculating the size of receive queue, TCP_INQ is a hint.
For example, it can overestimate the queue size by one byte,
if FIN is received.
With this method, applications can start reading from the socket
using a small buffer, and then use larger buffers based on the
remaining data when needed.
V3 change-log:
As suggested by David Miller, added loads with barrier
to check whether we have multiple threads calling recvmsg
in parallel. When that happens we lock the socket to
calculate inq.
V4 change-log:
Removed inline from a static function.

When adding tcp mmap() implementation, I forgot that socket lock
had to be taken before current->mm->mmap_sem. syzbot eventually caught
the bug.
Since we can not lock the socket in tcp mmap() handler we have to
split the operation in two phases.
1) mmap() on a tcp socket simply reserves VMA space, and nothing else.
This operation does not involve any TCP locking.
2) getsockopt(fd, IPPROTO_TCP, TCP_ZEROCOPY_RECEIVE, ...) implements
the transfert of pages from skbs to one VMA.
This operation only uses down_read(¤t->mm->mmap_sem) after
holding TCP lock, thus solving the lockdep issue.
This new implementation was suggested by Andy Lutomirski with great details.
Benefits are :
- Better scalability, in case multiple threads reuse VMAS
(without mmap()/munmap() calls) since mmap_sem wont be write locked.
- Better error recovery.
The previous mmap() model had to provide the expected size of the
mapping. If for some reason one part could not be mapped (partial MSS),
the whole operation had to be aborted.
With the tcp_zerocopy_receive struct, kernel can report how
many bytes were successfuly mapped, and how many bytes should
be read to skip the problematic sequence.
- No more memory allocation to hold an array of page pointers.
16 MB mappings needed 32 KB for this array, potentially using vmalloc() :/
- skbs are freed while mmap_sem has been released
Following patch makes the change in tcp_mmap tool to demonstrate
one possible use of mmap() and setsockopt(... TCP_ZEROCOPY_RECEIVE ...)
Note that memcg might require additional changes.
