Add support for genl "tcp_metrics". No locking
is changed, only that now we can unlink and delete
entries after grace period. We implement get/del for
single entry and dump to support show/flush filtering
in user space. Del without address attribute causes
flush for all addresses, sadly under genl_mutex.
v2:
- remove rcu_assign_pointer as suggested by Eric Dumazet,
it is not needed because there are no other writes under lock
- move the flushing code in tcp_metrics_flush_all
v3:
- remove synchronize_rcu on flush as suggested by Eric Dumazet

lsof reports some of socket descriptors as "can't identify protocol" like:
[yamato@localhost]/tmp% sudo lsof | grep dbus | grep iden
dbus-daem 652 dbus 6u sock ... 17812 can't identify protocol
dbus-daem 652 dbus 34u sock ... 24689 can't identify protocol
dbus-daem 652 dbus 42u sock ... 24739 can't identify protocol
dbus-daem 652 dbus 48u sock ... 22329 can't identify protocol
...
lsof cannot resolve the protocol used in a socket because procfs
doesn't provide the map between inode number on sockfs and protocol
type of the socket.
For improving the situation this patch adds an extended attribute named
'system.sockprotoname' in which the protocol name for
/proc/PID/fd/SOCKET is stored. So lsof can know the protocol for a
given /proc/PID/fd/SOCKET with getxattr system call.
A few weeks ago I submitted a patch for the same purpose. The patch
was introduced /proc/net/sockfs which enumerates inodes and protocols
of all sockets alive on a system. However, it was rejected because (1)
a global lock was needed, and (2) the layout of struct socket was
changed with the patch.
This patch doesn't use any global lock; and doesn't change the layout
of any structs.
In this patch, a protocol name is stored to dentry->d_name of sockfs
when new socket is associated with a file descriptor. Before this
patch dentry->d_name was not used; it was just filled with empty
string. lsof may use an extended attribute named
'system.sockprotoname' to retrieve the value of dentry->d_name.
It is nice if we can see the protocol name with ls -l
/proc/PID/fd. However, "socket:[#INODE]", the name format returned
from sockfs_dname() was already defined. To keep the compatibility
between kernel and user land, the extended attribute is used to
prepare the value of dentry->d_name.

When losses are detected via ACKs in CWR state, the sender enters Recovery
state but the cwnd reduction continues and does not restart.
Rename and refactor cwnd reduction functions since both CWR and Recovery
use the same algorithm:
tcp_init_cwnd_reduction() is new and initiates reduction state variables.
tcp_cwnd_reduction() is previously tcp_update_cwnd_in_recovery().
tcp_ends_cwnd_reduction() is previously tcp_complete_cwr().
The rate halving functions and logic such as tcp_cwnd_down(), tcp_min_cwnd(),
and the cwnd moderation inside tcp_enter_cwr() are removed. The unused

Jerry Chu says:
====================
This patch series provides the server (passive open) side code
for TCP Fast Open. Together with the earlier client side patches
it completes the TCP Fast Open implementation.
The server side Fast Open code accepts data carried in the SYN
packet with a valid Fast Open cookie, and passes it to the
application right away, allowing application to send back response
data, all before TCP's 3-way handshake finishes.
A simple cookie scheme together with capping the number of
outstanding TFO requests (still in TCP_SYN_RECV state) to a limit
per listener forms the main line of defense against spoofed SYN
attacks.
For more details about TCP Fast Open see our IETF internet draft
at http://www.ietf.org/id/draft-ietf-tcpm-fastopen-01.txt
and a research paper at
http://conferences.sigcomm.org/co-next/2011/papers/1569470463.pdf
A prototype implementation was first developed by Sivasankar
Radhakrishnan (sivasankar@cs.ucsd.edu).
A patch based on an older version of Linux kernel has been
undergoing internal tests at Google for the past few months.

tcp: TCP Fast Open Server - main code path
====================
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
This patch adds the main processing path to complete the TFO server
patches.
A TFO request (i.e., SYN+data packet with a TFO cookie option) first
gets processed in tcp_v4_conn_request(). If it passes the various TFO
checks by tcp_fastopen_check(), a child socket will be created right
away to be accepted by applications, rather than waiting for the 3WHS
to finish.
In additon to the use of TFO cookie, a simple max_qlen based scheme
is put in place to fend off spoofed TFO attack.
When a valid ACK comes back to tcp_rcv_state_process(), it will cause
the state of the child socket to switch from either TCP_SYN_RECV to
TCP_ESTABLISHED, or TCP_FIN_WAIT1 to TCP_FIN_WAIT2. At this time
retransmission will resume for any unack'ed (data, FIN,...) segments.

This patch builds on top of the previous patch to add the support
for TFO listeners. This includes -
1. allocating, properly initializing, and managing the per listener
fastopen_queue structure when TFO is enabled
2. changes to the inet_csk_accept code to support TFO. E.g., the
request_sock can no longer be freed upon accept(), not until 3WHS
finishes
3. allowing a TCP_SYN_RECV socket to properly poll() and sendmsg()
if it's a TFO socket
4. properly closing a TFO listener, and a TFO socket before 3WHS
finishes
5. supporting TCP_FASTOPEN socket option
6. modifying tcp_check_req() to use to check a TFO socket as well
as request_sock
7. supporting TCP's TFO cookie option
8. adding a new SYN-ACK retransmit handler to use the timer directly
off the TFO socket rather than the listener socket. Note that TFO
server side will not retransmit anything other than SYN-ACK until
the 3WHS is completed.
The patch also contains an important function
"reqsk_fastopen_remove()" to manage the somewhat complex relation
between a listener, its request_sock, and the corresponding child
socket. See the comment above the function for the detail.

This patch adds all the necessary data structure and support
functions to implement TFO server side. It also documents a number
of flags for the sysctl_tcp_fastopen knob, and adds a few Linux
extension MIBs.
In addition, it includes the following:
1. a new TCP_FASTOPEN socket option an application must call to
supply a max backlog allowed in order to enable TFO on its listener.
2. A number of key data structures:
"fastopen_rsk" in tcp_sock - for a big socket to access its
request_sock for retransmission and ack processing purpose. It is
non-NULL iff 3WHS not completed.
"fastopenq" in request_sock_queue - points to a per Fast Open
listener data structure "fastopen_queue" to keep track of qlen (# of
outstanding Fast Open requests) and max_qlen, among other things.
"listener" in tcp_request_sock - to point to the original listener
for book-keeping purpose, i.e., to maintain qlen against max_qlen
as part of defense against IP spoofing attack.
3. various data structure and functions, many in tcp_fastopen.c, to
support server side Fast Open cookie operations, including
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_fastopen_key to allow manual rekeying.

This patch adds a basic check in stmmac_mdio_unregister to see if mdio
bus registeration for this driver was actually sucessfull or not.
Use case here is, if BSP considers using mdio-gpio bus along with stmmac
driver by passing mdio_bus_data as NULL in platform data.
Call to stmmac_mdio_register with mdio_bus_data as NULL returns 0, which
is a considered sucessfull call form stmmac. Then again when we unload
the driver we just call stmmac_mdio_unregister, this is were the actual
problem is stmmac-mdio code dont really know at this instance of calling
that stmmac_mdio_register was actually successful.
So Adding a check in stmmac_mdio_unregister is always safe.
Without this patch stmmac driver calls stmmac_mdio_register from
stmmac_release which Segfaults as mii bus was never registered at the
first point.

Commit 9ad7c049 ("tcp: RFC2988bis + taking RTT sample from 3WHS for
the passive open side") changed the initRTO from 3secs to 1sec in
accordance to RFC6298 (former RFC2988bis). This reduced the time till
the last SYN retransmission packet gets sent from 93secs to 31secs.
RFC1122 is stating that the retransmission should be done for at least 3
minutes, but this seems to be quite high.
"However, the values of R1 and R2 may be different for SYN
and data segments. In particular, R2 for a SYN segment MUST
be set large enough to provide retransmission of the segment
for at least 3 minutes. The application can close the
connection (i.e., give up on the open attempt) sooner, of
course."
This patch increases the value of TCP_SYN_RETRIES to the value of 6,
providing a retransmission window of 63secs.
The comments for SYN and SYNACK retries have also been updated to
describe the current settings. The same goes for the documentation file
"Documentation/networking/ip-sysctl.txt".
