You are holding reference but application maybe gone. Or if output is stalled indefinitely?

You are holding reference but application maybe gone. Thanks for pointing this out! I just understood how sk_refcnt works together with sk_wmem_alloc. By the time we process this in-flight skb, sk_refcnt may have already reached 0, which means sk_free() may have already decreased that "extra" 1 sk_wmem_alloc, so skb->destructor() may call __sk_free() while I "hold" the sock here. Seems like a UAF. > Or if output is stalled indefinitely? It would be better to do a cleanup in sock destroying code, but I am trying to avoid acquiring Qdisc root_lock there. I will try to come up with a better solution. Thanks, Peilin Ye
I am very pleased to see this work. However, my "vision" such as it was, and as misguided as it might be, was to implement a facility similar to tcp_notsent_lowat for udp packets, tracking the progress of the udp packet through the kernel, and supplying backpressure and providing better information about where when and why the packet was dropped in the stack back to the application. I've been really impressed by the DROP_REASON work and had had no clue prior to seeing all that instrumentation, where else packets might be dropped in the kernel. I'd be interested to see what happens with sch_cake.

By "a facility similar to tcp_notsent_lowat", do you mean a smaller sk_sndbuf, or "UDP Small Queues"? I don't fully understand the implications of using a smaller sk_sndbuf yet, but I think it can work together with this RFC. sk_sndbuf is a per-socket attribute, while this RFC tries to improve it from Qdisc's perspective. Using a smaller sk_sndbuf alone does not prevent the "when UDP sends faster, TBF simply drops faster" issue (described in [I] of the cover letter) from happening. There's always a point, that there're too many sockets, so TBF's queue cannot contain "sk_sndbuf times number of sockets" (roughly speaking) bytes of skbs. After that point, TBF will suddenly start to drop a lot. For example, I used the default 212992 sk_sndbuf (/proc/sys/net/core/wmem_default) in the test setup ([V] in the cover letter). Let's make it one tenth as large, 21299. It works well for the 2-client setup; zero packets dropped. However, if we test it with 15 iperf2 clients: [ 3] 0.0-30.0 sec 46.4 MBytes 13.0 Mbits/sec 1.251 ms 89991/123091 (73%) [ 3] 0.0-30.0 sec 46.6 MBytes 13.0 Mbits/sec 2.033 ms 91204/124464 (73%) [ 3] 0.0-30.0 sec 46.5 MBytes 13.0 Mbits/sec 0.504 ms 89879/123054 (73%) <...> ^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^ 73% drop rate again. Now apply this RFC: [ 3] 0.0-30.0 sec 46.3 MBytes 12.9 Mbits/sec 1.206 ms 807/33839 (2.4%) [ 3] 0.0-30.0 sec 45.5 MBytes 12.7 Mbits/sec 1.919 ms 839/33283 (2.5%) [ 3] 0.0-30.0 sec 45.8 MBytes 12.8 Mbits/sec 2.521 ms 837/33508 (2.5%) <...> ^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^ Down to 3% again. Next, same 21299 sk_sndbuf, 20 iperf2 clients, without RFC: [ 3] 0.0-30.0 sec 34.5 MBytes 9.66 Mbits/sec 1.054 ms 258703/283342 (91%) [ 3] 0.0-30.0 sec 34.5 MBytes 9.66 Mbits/sec 1.033 ms 257324/281964 (91%) [ 3] 0.0-30.0 sec 34.5 MBytes 9.66 Mbits/sec 1.116 ms 257858/282500 (91%) <...> ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^ 91% drop rate. Finally, apply RFC: [ 3] 0.0-30.0 sec 34.4 MBytes 9.61 Mbits/sec 0.974 ms 7982/32503 (25%) [ 3] 0.0-30.0 sec 34.1 MBytes 9.54 Mbits/sec 1.381 ms 7394/31732 (23%) [ 3] 0.0-30.0 sec 34.3 MBytes 9.58 Mbits/sec 2.431 ms 8149/32583 (25%) <...> ^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^ The thundering herd probelm ([III] in the cover letter) surfaces, but still an improvement. In conclusion, assuming we are going to use smaller sk_sndbuf or "UDP Small Queues", I think it doesn't replace this RFC, and vice versa. > I've been really impressed by the DROP_REASON work and had had no clue > prior to seeing all that instrumentation, where else packets might be > dropped in the kernel. > > I'd be interested to see what happens with sch_cake. Sure, I will cover sch_cake in v2. Thanks, Peilin Ye
