Revision 3dd1c9a1270736029ffca670e9bd0265f4120600 authored by Paolo Abeni on 23 July 2018, 14:50:48 UTC, committed by David S. Miller on 23 July 2018, 18:39:30 UTC
The skb hash for locally generated ip[v6] fragments belonging
to the same datagram can vary in several circumstances:
* for connected UDP[v6] sockets, the first fragment get its hash
  via set_owner_w()/skb_set_hash_from_sk()
* for unconnected IPv6 UDPv6 sockets, the first fragment can get
  its hash via ip6_make_flowlabel()/skb_get_hash_flowi6(), if
  auto_flowlabel is enabled

For the following frags the hash is usually computed via
skb_get_hash().
The above can cause OoO for unconnected IPv6 UDPv6 socket: in that
scenario the egress tx queue can be selected on a per packet basis
via the skb hash.
It may also fool flow-oriented schedulers to place fragments belonging
to the same datagram in different flows.

Fix the issue by copying the skb hash from the head frag into
the others at fragmentation time.

Before this commit:
perf probe -a "dev_queue_xmit skb skb->hash skb->l4_hash:b1@0/8 skb->sw_hash:b1@1/8"
netperf -H $IPV4 -t UDP_STREAM -l 5 -- -m 2000 -n &
perf record -e probe:dev_queue_xmit -e probe:skb_set_owner_w -a sleep 0.1
perf script
probe:dev_queue_xmit: (ffffffff8c6b1b20) hash=3713014309 l4_hash=1 sw_hash=0
probe:dev_queue_xmit: (ffffffff8c6b1b20) hash=0 l4_hash=0 sw_hash=0

After this commit:
probe:dev_queue_xmit: (ffffffff8c6b1b20) hash=2171763177 l4_hash=1 sw_hash=0
probe:dev_queue_xmit: (ffffffff8c6b1b20) hash=2171763177 l4_hash=1 sw_hash=0

Fixes: b73c3d0e4f0e ("net: Save TX flow hash in sock and set in skbuf on xmit")
Fixes: 67800f9b1f4e ("ipv6: Call skb_get_hash_flowi6 to get skb->hash in ip6_make_flowlabel")
