From: "mfreemon@cloudflare.com" <mfreemon@cloudflare.com>

Under certain circumstances, the tcp receive buffer memory limit
set by autotuning is ignored, and the receive buffer can grow
unrestrained until it reaches tcp_rmem[2].

To reproduce:  Connect a TCP session with the receiver doing
nothing and the sender sending small packets (an infinite loop
of socket send() with 4 bytes of payload with a sleep of 1 ms
in between each send()).  This will fill the tcp receive buffer
all the way to tcp_rmem[2], ignoring the autotuning limit
(sk_rcvbuf).

As a result, a host can have individual tcp sessions with receive
buffers of size tcp_rmem[2], and the host itself can reach tcp_mem
limits, causing the host to go into tcp memory pressure mode.

The fundamental issue is the relationship between the granularity
of the window scaling factor and the number of byte ACKed back
to the sender.  This problem has previously been identified in
RFC 7323, appendix F [1].

The Linux kernel currently adheres to never shrinking the window.

In addition to the overallocation of memory mentioned above, this
is also functionally incorrect, because once tcp_rmem[2] is
reached, the receiver will drop in-window packets resulting in
retransmissions and an eventual timeout of the tcp session.  A
receive buffer full condition should instead result in a zero
window and an indefinite wait.

In practice, this problem is largely hidden for most flows.  It
is not applicable to mice flows.  Elephant flows can send data
fast enough to "overrun" the sk_rcvbuf limit (in a single ACK),
triggering a zero window.

But this problem does show up for other types of flows.  A good
example are websockets and other type of flows that send small
amounts of data spaced apart slightly in time.  In these cases,
we directly encounter the problem described in [1].

RFC 7323, section 2.4 [2], says there are instances when a retracted
window can be offered, and that TCP implementations MUST ensure
that they handle a shrinking window, as specified in RFC 1122,
section 4.2.2.16 [3].  All prior RFCs on the topic of tcp window
management have made clear that sender must accept a shrunk window
from the receiver, including RFC 793 [4] and RFC 1323 [5].

This patch implements the functionality to shrink the tcp window
when necessary to keep the right edge within the memory limit by
autotuning (sk_rcvbuf).  This new functionality is enabled with
the following sysctl:

sysctl: net.ipv4.tcp_shrink_window

This sysctl changes how the TCP window is calculated.

If sysctl tcp_shrink_window is zero (the default value), then the
window is never shrunk.

If sysctl tcp_shrink_window is non-zero, then the memory limit
set by autotuning is honored.  This requires that the TCP window
be shrunk ("retracted") as described in RFC 1122.

tcp_rmem[2] _is_ the limit.

 'unrestrained' seems a bogus claim to me.

autotuning means : sk_rcvbuf can grow up to tcp_rmem[2], if needed.

I think that it is also a bogus claim.

linux TCP stack will then collapse all small buffers in receiver queue
to make room.

Look at tcp_collapse_one(), tcp_collapse(), tcp_collapse_ofo_queue(),
tcp_prune_queue(),

READ_ONCE()

hint : really read once this sysctl in __tcp_select_window() and cache
its value in an auto variable.

Use the cached value

You added too much code in the fast path.

I would prefer you refactor your patch to test the sysctl once, only
in the 'danger' zone
and eventually copy paste the relevant code, instead of adding many
conditional tests
and slow down the fast path.
