(> 900Mbps), but TCP Tx marked as low as 5Mbps when single pair is

The root cause is turned out because TSO flag is not initialized

TSO flags in msdu extension descriptor is required to be reset
to indicate firmware there is no TSO is enabled, otherwise it
could act as TSO is enabled which causes huge throughput drop.

ath10k: fix memory alloc failure in qca99x0 during wmi svc rdy event

Host memory required for firmware is allocated while handling
wmi service ready event. Right now, wmi service ready is handled
in tasklet context and it calls dma_alloc_coherent() with atomic
flag (GFP_ATOMIC) to allocate memory in host needed for firmware.
The problem is, dma_alloc_coherent() with GFP_ATOMIC fails in
the platform (at least in AP platform) where it has less atomic
pool memory (< 2mb). QCA99X0 requires around 2 MB of host memory
for one card, having additional QCA99X0 card in the same platform
will require similarly amount of memory. So, it's not guaranteed that
all the platform will have enough atomic memory pool.

Fix this issue, by handling wmi service ready event in workqueue
context and calling dma_alloc_coherent() with GFP_KERNEL. mac80211 work
queue will not be ready at the time of handling wmi service ready.
So, it can't be used to handle wmi service ready. Also, register work
gets scheduled during insmod in existing ath10k_wq and waits for
wmi service ready to completed. Both workqueue can't be used for
this purpose. New auxiliary workqueue is added to handle wmi service

Patch 1 removes duplicate code in be_setup_wol() routine making it simpler

Patch 2 fixes the the bridge mode return value for the ndo_bridge_getlink()

queries the FW, for the actual mode of bridge.

in pci_enable_device()

Patch 4 fixes a bad return value in be_check_ufi_compatibility() routine

Patch 5 fixes a field in udp header being accessed while in network endian

Patch 6 fixes the be_mcc_notify() routine to return an error status when
the FW/HW is in an error state.

Patch 7 fixes the be_cmd_rx_filter() routine to issue the RX_FILTER cmd
and not wait for a completion from the FW. If the FW/adapter
is in an error state, this change helps in not holding up the rtnl_lock

a response from the FW.

and not wait for the FW completion while spin_lock_bh() is held on the

tcp: update congestion state first before raising cwnd

The congestion state and cwnd can be updated in the wrong order.
For example, upon receiving a dubious ACK, we incorrectly raise
the cwnd first (tcp_may_raise_cwnd()/tcp_cong_avoid()) because
the state is still Open, then enter recovery state to reduce cwnd.

For another example, if the ACK indicates spurious timeout or

state back to Open state.  But we don't raise the cwnd even though
the ACK does not indicate any congestion.

To fix this problem we should first call tcp_fastretrans_alert() to

tcp_may_raise_cwnd() that raises cwnd based on the current state.

9 years agotcp: v1 always send a quick ack when quickacks are enabled
Jon Maxwell [Wed, 8 Jul 2015 00:12:28 +0000 (10:12 +1000)]
tcp: v1 always send a quick ack when quickacks are enabled

V1 of this patch contains Eric Dumazet's suggestion to move the per
dst RTAX_QUICKACK check into tcp_in_quickack_mode(). Thanks Eric.

I ran some tests and after setting the "ip route change quickack 1"
knob there were still many delayed ACKs sent. This occured
because when icsk_ack.quick=0 the !icsk_ack.pingpong value is
subsequently ignored as tcp_in_quickack_mode() checks both these
values. The condition for a quick ack to trigger requires
that both icsk_ack.quick != 0 and icsk_ack.pingpong=0. Currently
only icsk_ack.pingpong is controlled by the knob. But the
icsk_ack.quick value changes dynamically depending on heuristics.
The crux of the matter is that delayed acks still cannot be entirely
disabled even with the RTAX_QUICKACK per dst knob enabled. This
patch ensures that a quick ack is always sent when the RTAX_QUICKACK
per dst knob is turned on.

The "ip route change quickack 1" knob was recently added to enable
quickacks. It was modeled around the TCP_QUICKACK setsockopt() option.
This issue is that even with "ip route change quickack 1" enabled
we still see delayed ACKs under some conditions. It would be nice
to be able to completely disable delayed ACKs.

Here is an example:

# netstat -s|grep dela
    3 delayed acks sent

For all routes enable the knob

# ip route change quickack 1

Generate some traffic across a slow link and we still see the delayed
acks.

# netstat -s|grep dela
    106 delayed acks sent
    1 delayed acks further delayed because of locked socket

The issue is that both the "ip route change quickack 1" knob and
the TCP_QUICKACK option set the icsk_ack.pingpong variable to 0.
However at the business end in the __tcp_ack_snd_check() routine,
tcp_in_quickack_mode() checks that both icsk_ack.quick != 0
and icsk_ack.pingpong=0 in order to trigger a quickack. As
icsk_ack.quick is determined by heuristics it can be 0. When
that occurs the icsk_ack.pingpong value is ignored and a delayed
ACK is sent regardless.

This patch moves the RTAX_QUICKACK per dst check into the
tcp_in_quickack_mode() routine which ensures that a quickack is
always sent when the quickack knob is enabled for that dst.

This patch series reduces lost retransmits in recovery, in particular

slow start in recovery under policing can cause massive lost and
retransmit storms: any excess sending rate turns into drops. The
solution is to avoid doing slow start when lost retransmit is
detected and use packet conservation instead.

9 years agotcp: PRR uses CRB mode by default and SS mode conditionally

tcp: PRR uses CRB mode by default and SS mode conditionally

PRR slow start is often too aggressive especially when drops are
caused by traffic policers. The policers mainly use token bucket
to enforce the rate so sending (twice) faster than the delivery
rate causes excessive drops.

This patch changes PRR to the conservative reduction bound
(CRB) mode in RFC 6937 by default. CRB follows the packet
conservation rule to send at most the delivery rate by default.

But if many packets are lost and the pipe is empty, CRB may take N
round trips to repair N losses. We conditionally turn on slow start
mode if all these conditions are made to speed up the recovery:

  1) on the second round or later in recovery
  2) retransmission sent in the previous round is delivered on this ACK
  3) no retransmission is marked lost on this ACK

By using packet conservation by default, this change reduces the loss
retransmits signicantly on networks that deploy traffic policers,
up to 20% reduction of overall loss rate.

9 years agotcp: reduce cwnd if retransmit is lost in CA_Loss

tcp: reduce cwnd if retransmit is lost in CA_Loss

If the retransmission in CA_Loss is lost again, we should not
continue to slow start or raise cwnd in congestion avoidance mode.
Instead we should enter fast recovery and use PRR to reduce cwnd,
following the principle in RFC5681:

"... or the loss of a retransmission, should be taken as two
 indications of congestion and, therefore, cwnd (and ssthresh) MUST
 be lowered twice in this case."

This is especially important to reduce loss when the CA_Loss
state was caused by a traffic policer dropping the entire inflight.
The CA_Loss state has a problem where a loss of L packets causes the
sender to send a burst of L packets. So a policer that's dropping
most packets in a given RTT can cause a huge retransmit storm. By
contrast, PRR includes logic to bound the number of outbound packets
that result from a given ACK. So switching to CA_Recovery on lost
retransmits in CA_Loss avoids this retransmit storm problem when
in CA_Loss.
