[PATCH v2 bpf-next 06/13] tcp: Migrate TCP_ESTABLISHED/TCP_SYN_RECV sockets in accept queues.

From: Kuniyuki Iwashima
Date: Mon Dec 07 2020 - 08:28:05 EST


This patch lets reuseport_detach_sock() return a pointer of struct sock,
which is used only by inet_unhash(). If it is not NULL,
inet_csk_reqsk_queue_migrate() migrates TCP_ESTABLISHED/TCP_SYN_RECV
sockets from the closing listener to the selected one.

By default, the kernel selects a new listener randomly. In order to pick
out a different socket every time, we select the last element of socks[] as
the new listener. This behaviour is based on how the kernel moves sockets
in socks[]. (See also [1])

Basically, in order to redistribute sockets evenly, we have to use an eBPF
program called in the later commit, but as the side effect of such default
selection, the kernel can redistribute old requests evenly to new listeners
for a specific case where the application replaces listeners by
generations.

For example, we call listen() for four sockets (A, B, C, D), and close()
the first two by turns. The sockets move in socks[] like below.

socks[0] : A <-. socks[0] : D socks[0] : D
socks[1] : B | => socks[1] : B <-. => socks[1] : C
socks[2] : C | socks[2] : C --'
socks[3] : D --'

Then, if C and D have newer settings than A and B, and each socket has a
request (a, b, c, d) in their accept queue, we can redistribute old
requests evenly to new listeners.

socks[0] : A (a) <-. socks[0] : D (a + d) socks[0] : D (a + d)
socks[1] : B (b) | => socks[1] : B (b) <-. => socks[1] : C (b + c)
socks[2] : C (c) | socks[2] : C (c) --'
socks[3] : D (d) --'

Here, (A, D), or (B, C) can have different application settings, but they
MUST have the same settings at the socket API level; otherwise, unexpected
error may happen. For instance, if only the new listeners have
TCP_SAVE_SYN, old requests do not hold SYN data, so the application will
face inconsistency and cause an error.

Therefore, if there are different kinds of sockets, we must attach an eBPF
program described in later commits.
