skb: Add inline helper for getting the skb end offset from head
With the recent changes for how we compute the skb truesize it occurs to me
we are probably going to have a lot of calls to skb_end_pointer -
skb->head. Instead of running all over the place doing that it would make
more sense to just make it a separate inline skb_end_offset(skb) that way
we can return the correct value without having gcc having to do all the
optimization to cancel out skb->head - skb->head.

skb: Drop bad code from pskb_expand_head
The fast-path for pskb_expand_head contains a check where the size plus the
unaligned size of skb_shared_info is compared against the size of the data
buffer. This code path has two issues. First is the fact that after the
recent changes by Eric Dumazet to __alloc_skb and build_skb the shared info
is always placed in the optimal spot for a buffer size making this check
unnecessary. The second issue is the fact that the check doesn't take into

doing a memcpy with nothing actually being shifted.

tcp: Fix truesize accounting in tcp_try_coalesce
This patch addresses several issues in the way we were tracking the
truesize in tcp_try_coalesce.
First it was using ksize which prevents us from having a 0 sized head frag
and getting a usable result. To resolve that this patch uses the end
pointer which is set based off either ksize, or the frag_size supplied in
build_skb. This allows us to compute the original truesize of the entire
buffer and remove that value leaving us with just what was added as pages.
The second issue was the use of skb->len if there is a mergeable head frag.
We should only need to remove the size of an data aligned sk_buff from our
current skb->truesize to compute the delta for a buffer with a reused head.
By using skb->len the value of truesize was being artificially reduced
which means that head frags could use more memory than buffers using
standard allocations.

tcp: early retransmit
This patch implements RFC 5827 early retransmit (ER) for TCP.
It reduces DUPACK threshold (dupthresh) if outstanding packets are
less than 4 to recover losses by fast recovery instead of timeout.
While the algorithm is simple, small but frequent network reordering
makes this feature dangerous: the connection repeatedly enter
false recovery and degrade performance. Therefore we implement
a mitigation suggested in the appendix of the RFC that delays
entering fast recovery by a small interval, i.e., RTT/4. Currently
ER is conservative and is disabled for the rest of the connection
after the first reordering event. A large scale web server
experiment on the performance impact of ER is summarized in
section 6 of the paper "Proportional Rate Reduction for TCP”,
IMC 2011. http://conferences.sigcomm.org/imc/2011/docs/p155.pdf
Note that Linux has a similar feature called THIN_DUPACK. The
differences are THIN_DUPACK do not mitigate reorderings and is only
used after slow start. Currently ER is disabled if THIN_DUPACK is
enabled. I would be happy to merge THIN_DUPACK feature with ER if
people think it's a good idea.
ER is enabled by sysctl_tcp_early_retrans:
0: Disables ER
1: Reduce dupthresh to packets_out - 1 when outstanding packets < 4.
2: (Default) reduce dupthresh like mode 1. In addition, delay
entering fast recovery by RTT/4.
Note: mode 2 is implemented in the third part of this patch series.

tcp: makes tcp_try_coalesce aware of skb->head_frag
TCP coalesce can check if skb to be merged has its skb->head mapped to a
page fragment, instead of a kmalloc() area.
We had to disable coalescing in this case, for performance reasons.
We 'upgrade' skb->head as a fragment in itself.
This reduces number of cache misses when user makes its copies, since a
less sk_buff are fetched.
This makes receive and ofo queues shorter and thus reduce cache line
misses in TCP stack.
This is a followup of patch "net: allow skb->head to be a page fragment"
Tested with tg3 nic, with GRO on or off. We can see "TCPRcvCoalesce"
counter being incremented.

tg3: provide frags as skb head
This patch converts tg3 driver, one of our reference drivers, to use new
build_skb() api in frag mode.
Instead of using kmalloc() to allocate the memory block that will be
used by build_skb() as skb->head, we use a page fragment.
This is a followup of patch "net: allow skb->head to be a page fragment"
This allows GRO, TCP coalescing, and splice() to be more efficient.
Incidentally, this also removes SLUB slow path contention in kfree()

net: allow skb->head to be a page fragment
skb->head is currently allocated from kmalloc(). This is convenient but
has the drawback the data cannot be converted to a page fragment if
needed.
We have three spots were it hurts :
1) GRO aggregation
When a linear skb must be appended to another skb, GRO uses the
frag_list fallback, very inefficient since we keep all struct sk_buff
around. So drivers enabling GRO but delivering linear skbs to network
stack aren't enabling full GRO power.
2) splice(socket -> pipe).
We must copy the linear part to a page fragment.
This kind of defeats splice() purpose (zero copy claim)
3) TCP coalescing.
Recently introduced, this permits to group several contiguous segments
into a single skb. This shortens queue lengths and save kernel memory,
and greatly reduce probabilities of TCP collapses. This coalescing
doesnt work on linear skbs (or we would need to copy data, this would be
too slow)
Given all these issues, the following patch introduces the possibility
of having skb->head be a fragment in itself. We use a new skb flag,
skb->head_frag to carry this information.
build_skb() is changed to accept a frag_size argument. Drivers willing
to provide a page fragment instead of kmalloc() data will set a non zero
value, set to the fragment size.
Then, on situations we need to convert the skb head to a frag in itself,
we can check if skb->head_frag is set and avoid the copies or various
fallbacks we have.
This means drivers currently using frags could be updated to avoid the
current skb->head allocation and reduce their memory footprint (aka skb
truesize). (thats 512 or 1024 bytes saved per skb). This also makes
bpf/netfilter faster since the 'first frag' will be part of skb linear
part, no need to copy data.
