[v6,bpf-next,01/11] net: Introduce net.ipv4.tcp_migrate_req.

Commit Message

Iwashima, Kuniyuki May 17, 2021, 12:22 a.m. UTC

This commit adds a new sysctl option: net.ipv4.tcp_migrate_req. If this
option is enabled or eBPF program is attached, we will be able to migrate
child sockets from a listener to another in the same reuseport group after
close() or shutdown() syscalls.

+tcp_migrate_req - BOOLEAN
+	The incoming connection is tied to a specific listening socket when
+	the initial SYN packet is received during the three-way handshake.
+	When a listener is closed, in-flight request sockets during the
+	handshake and established sockets in the accept queue are aborted.
+
+	If the listener has SO_REUSEPORT enabled, other listeners on the
+	same port should have been able to accept such connections. This
+	option makes it possible to migrate such child sockets to another
+	listener after close() or shutdown().
+
+	The BPF_SK_REUSEPORT_SELECT_OR_MIGRATE type of eBPF program should
+	usually be used to define the policy to pick an alive listener.
+	Otherwise, the kernel will randomly pick an alive listener only if
+	this option is enabled.
+
+	Note that migration between listeners with different settings may
+	crash applications. Let's say migration happens from listener A to
+	B, and only B has TCP_SAVE_SYN enabled. B cannot read SYN data from
+	the requests migrated from A. To avoid such a situation, cancel
+	migration by returning SK_DROP in the type of eBPF program, or
+	disable this option.

 tcp_fastopen - INTEGER
 	Enable TCP Fast Open (RFC7413) to send and accept data in the opening
