Gerrit Renker 2bbf29acd8 [DCCP] tfrc: Binary search for reverse TFRC lookup
This replaces the linear search algorithm for reverse lookup with
binary search.

It has the advantage of better scalability: O(log2(N)) instead of O(N).
This means that the average number of iterations is reduced from 250
(linear search if each value appears equally likely) down to at most 9.

Gerrit Renker 44158306d7 [DCCP] ccid3: Deprecate TFRC_SMALLEST_P
This patch deprecates the existing use of an arbitrary value TFRC_SMALLEST_P
 for low-threshold values of p. This avoids masking low-resolution errors.
 Instead, the code now checks against real boundaries (implemented by preceding
 patch) and provides warnings whenever a real value falls below the threshold.

 If such messages are observed, it is a better solution to take this as an
 indication that the lookup table needs to be re-engineered.

Changelog:
----------
 This patch
   * makes handling all TFRC resolution errors local to the TFRC library

   * removes unnecessary test whether X_calc is 'infinity' due to p==0 -- this
     condition is already caught by tfrc_calc_x()

   * removes setting ccid3hctx_p = TFRC_SMALLEST_P in ccid3_hc_tx_packet_recv
     since this is now done by the TFRC library

   * updates BUG_ON test in ccid3_hc_tx_no_feedback_timer to take into account
     that p now is either 0 (and then X_calc is irrelevant), or it is > 0; since
     the handling of TFRC_SMALLEST_P is now taken care of in the tfrc library

Justification:
--------------
 The TFRC code uses a lookup table which has a bounded resolution.
 The lowest possible value of the loss event rate `p' which can be
 resolved is currently 0.0001.  Substituting this lower threshold for
 p when p is less than 0.0001 results in a huge, exponentially-growing
 error.  The error can be computed by the following formula:

    (f(0.0001) - f(p))/f(p) * 100      for p < 0.0001

 Currently the solution is to use an (arbitrary) value
     TFRC_SMALLEST_P  =   40 * 1E-6   =   0.00004
 and to consider all values below this value as `virtually zero'.  Due to
 the exponentially growing resolution error, this is not a good idea, since
 it hides the fact that the table can not resolve practically occurring cases.
 Already at p == TFRC_SMALLEST_P, the error is as high as 58.19%!

Gerrit Renker 8d0086adac [DCCP] tfrc: Add protection against invalid parameters to TFRC routines
1) For the forward X_calc lookup, it
    * protects effectively against RTT=0 (this case is possible), by
      returning the maximal lookup value instead of just setting it to 1
    * reformulates the array-bounds exceeded condition: this only happens
      if p is greater than 1E6 (due to the scaling)
    * the case of negative indices can now with certainty be excluded,
      since documentation shows that the formulas are within bounds
    * additional protection against p = 0 (would give divide-by-zero)

 2) For the reverse lookup, it warns against
    * protects against exceeding array bounds
    * now returns 0 if f(p) = 0, due to function definition
    * warns about minimal resolution error and returns the smallest table
      value instead of p=0 [this would mask congestion conditions]

Gerrit Renker 90fb0e60dd [DCCP] tfrc: Fix small error in reverse lookup of p for given f(p)
This fixes the following small error in tfrc_calc_x_reverse_lookup.

 1) The table is generated by the following equations:
	lookup[index][0] = g((index+1) * 1000000/TFRC_CALC_X_ARRSIZE);
	lookup[index][1] = g((index+1) * TFRC_CALC_X_SPLIT/TFRC_CALC_X_ARRSIZE);
    where g(q) is 1E6 * f(q/1E6)

 2) The reverse lookup assigns an entry in lookup[index][small]

 3) This index needs to match the above, i.e.
    * if small=0 then

      		p  = (index + 1) * 1000000/TFRC_CALC_X_ARRSIZE

    * if small=1 then

		p = (index+1) * TFRC_CALC_X_SPLIT/TFRC_CALC_X_ARRSIZE

These are exactly the changes that the patch makes; previously the code did
not conform to the way the lookup table was generated (this difference resulted
in a mean error of about 1.12%).

Gerrit Renker 26af3072b0 [DCCP] ccid3: Fix warning message about illegal ACK
This avoids a (harmless) warning message being printed at the DCCP server
(the receiver of a DCCP half connection).

Incoming packets are both directed to

 * ccid_hc_rx_packet_recv() for the server half
 * ccid_hc_tx_packet_recv() for the client half

The message gets printed since on a server the client half is currently not
sending data packets.
This is resolved for the moment by checking the DCCP-role first. In future
times (bidirectional DCCP connections), this test may have to be more
sophisticated.

Gerrit Renker 5c3fbb6acf [DCCP] ccid3: Fix bug in calculation of send rate
The main object of this patch is the following bug:
 ==> In ccid3_hc_tx_packet_recv, the parameters p and X_recv were updated
     _after_ the send rate was calculated. This is clearly an error and is
     resolved by re-ordering statements.

In addition,
  * r_sample is converted from u32 to long to check whether the time difference
    was negative (it would otherwise be converted to a large u32 value)
  * protection against RTT=0 (this is possible) is provided in a further patch
  * t_elapsed is also converted to long, to match the type of r_sample
  * adds a a more debugging information regarding current send rates
  * various trivial comment/documentation updates

Gerrit Renker 76d127779e [DCCP]: Fix BUG in retransmission delay calculation
This bug resulted in ccid3_hc_tx_send_packet returning negative
delay values, which in turn triggered silently dequeueing packets in
dccp_write_xmit. As a result, only a few out of the submitted packets made
it at all onto the network.  Occasionally, when dccp_wait_for_ccid was
involved, this also triggered a bug warning since ccid3_hc_tx_send_packet
returned a negative value (which in reality was a negative delay value).

The cause for this bug lies in the comparison

 if (delay >= hctx->ccid3hctx_delta)
	return delay / 1000L;

The type of `delay' is `long', that of ccid3hctx_delta is `u32'. When comparing
negative long values against u32 values, the test returned `true' whenever delay
was smaller than 0 (meaning the packet was overdue to send).

The fix is by casting, subtracting, and then testing the difference with
regard to 0.

This has been tested and shown to work.

Gerrit Renker 8a508ac26e [DCCP]: Use higher RTO default for CCID3
The TFRC nofeedback timer normally expires after the maximum of 4
RTTs and twice the current send interval (RFC 3448, 4.3). On LANs
with a small RTT this can mean a high processing load and reduced
performance, since then the nofeedback timer is triggered very
frequently.

This patch provides a configuration option to set the bound for the
nofeedback timer, using as default 100 milliseconds.

By setting the configuration option to 0, strict RFC 3448 behaviour
can be enforced for the nofeedback timer.

Gerrit Renker 6b57c93dc3 [DCCP]: Use `unsigned' for packet lengths
This patch implements a suggestion by Ian McDonald and

 1) Avoids tests against negative packet lengths by using unsigned int
    for packet payload lengths in the CCID send_packet()/packet_sent() routines

 2) As a consequence, it removes an now unnecessary test with regard to `len > 0'
    in ccid3_hc_tx_packet_sent: that condition is always true, since
      * negative packet lengths are avoided
      * ccid3_hc_tx_send_packet flags an error whenever the payload length is 0.
        As a consequence, ccid3_hc_tx_packet_sent is never called as all errors
        returned by ccid_hc_tx_send_packet are caught in dccp_write_xmit

 3) Removes the third argument of ccid_hc_tx_send_packet (the `len' parameter),
    since it is currently always set to skb->len. The code is updated with regard
    to this parameter change.

Gerrit Renker a79ef76f4d [DCCP] ccid3: Larger initial windows
This implements the larger-initial-windows feature for CCID 3, as described in
section 5 of RFC 4342. When the first feedback packet arrives, the sender can
send up to 2..4 packets per RTT, instead of just one.

The patch further
 * reduces the number of timestamping calls by passing the timestamp value
   (which is computed in one of the calling functions anyway) as argument

 * renames one constant with a very long name into one which is shorter and
   resembles the one in RFC 3448 (t_mbi)

 * simplifies some of the min_t/max_t cases where both `x', `y' have the same
   type

Commiter note: renamed TFRC_t_mbi to TFRC_T_MBI, to follow Linux coding style.

Gerrit Renker 5d0dbc4a9b [DCCP] ccid3: Consolidate handling of t_RTO
This patch
 * removes setting t_RTO in ccid3_hc_tx_init (per [RFC 3448, 4.2], t_RTO is
   undefined until feedback has been received);

 * makes some trivial changes (updates of comments);

 * performs a small optimisation by exploiting that the feedback timeout
   uses the value of t_ipi. The way it is done is safe, because the timeouts
   appear after the changes to t_ipi, ensuring that up-to-date values are used;

 * in ccid3_hc_tx_packet_recv, moves the t_rto statement closer to the calculation
   of the next_tmout. This makes the code clearer to read and is also safe, since
   t_rto is not updated until the next call of ccid3_hc_tx_packet_recv, and is not
   read by the functions called via ccid_wait_for_ccid();

 * removes a `max' statement in sk_reset_timer, this is not needed since the timeout
   value is always greater than 1E6 microseconds.

 * adds `XXX'es to highlight that currently the nofeedback timer is set
   in a non-standard way

 * resolves a FIXME regarding the re-calculation of t_ipi within the nofeedback

Since in this case the value of R is still undefined according to [RFC 3448,

Gerrit Renker da335baf9e [DCCP] ccid3: Avoid congestion control on zero-sized data packets
This resolves an `XXX' in ccid3_hc_tx_send_packet().

The function is only called on Data and DataAck packets and returns a negative
result on zero-sized messages. This is a reasonable policy since CCID 3 is a
congestion-control module and congestion control on zero-sized Data(Ack)
packets is in a way pathological.

The patch uses a more suitable error code for this case, it returns the Posix.1
code `EBADMSG' ("Not a data message") instead of `ENOTCONN'.

As a result of ignoring zero-sized packets, a the condition for a warning
"First packet is data" in ccid3_hc_tx_packet_sent is always satisfied; this
message has been removed since it will always be printed.

Gerrit Renker 59348b19ef [DCCP]: Simplified conditions due to use of enum:8 states
This reaps the benefit of the earlier patch, which changed the type of
CCID 3 states to use enums, in that many conditions are now simplified
and the number of possible (unexpected) values is greatly reduced.

In a few instances, this also allowed to simplify pre-conditions; where
care has been taken to retain logical equivalence.

[DCCP]: Introduce a consistent BUG/WARN message scheme

This refines the existing set of DCCP messages so that
 * BUG(), BUG_ON(), WARN_ON() have meaningful DCCP-specific counterparts
 * DCCP_CRIT (for severe warnings) is not rate-limited
 * DCCP_WARN() is introduced as rate-limited wrapper

Using these allows a faster and cleaner transition to their original
counterparts once the code has matured into a full DCCP implementation.

Ian McDonald b1308dc015 [DCCP]: Set TX Queue Length Bounds via Sysctl
Previously the transmit queue was unbounded.

This patch:
	* puts a limit on transmit queue length
	  and sends back EAGAIN if the buffer is full
	* sets the TX queue length to a sensible default
	* implements tx buffer sysctls for DCCP

Gerrit Renker 56724aa434 [DCCP]: Add CCID3 debug support to Kconfig
This adds a CCID3 debug option to the configuration menu
which is missing in Kconfig, but already used by the code.

CCID 2 already provides such an entry.

To enable debugging, set CONFIG_IP_DCCP_CCID3_DEBUG=y

NOTE: The use of ccid3_{t,r}x_state_name is safe, since
      now only enum values can appear.

These are code optimizations which are relevant when dealing with large

the short-term.  This patch should be more neat.

Commiter note: Changed the seqno comparisions to use {after,before}48 to handle

Gerrit Renker 3c6952624a [DCCP]: Introduce DCCP_{BUG{_ON},CRIT} macros, use enum:8 for the ccid3 states
This patch tackles the following problem:
       * the ccid3_hc_{t,r}x_sock define ccid3hc{t,r}x_state as `u8', but
         in reality there can only be a few, pre-defined enum names

         which would otherwise be caught by the compiler

Andrea Bittau d23ca15a21 [DCCP] ACKVEC: Optimization - Do not traverse records if none will be found
Do not traverse the list of ack vector records [proportional to window size]
when we know we will not find what we are looking for.  This is especially
useful because ack vectors are checked twice:
1) Upon parsing of options.
2) Upon notification of a new ack.

All of the work will occur during check #1.  Therefore, when check #2 is
performed, no new work will be done.  This is now "detected" and there is no
performance hit when doing #2.

  * add documentation of structures and constants
