      rxrpc: Rewrite the data and ack handling code · 248f219c
      David Howells 提交于
      Rewrite the data and ack handling code such that:
      
       (1) Parsing of received ACK and ABORT packets and the distribution and the
           filing of DATA packets happens entirely within the data_ready context
           called from the UDP socket.  This allows us to process and discard ACK
           and ABORT packets much more quickly (they're no longer stashed on a
           queue for a background thread to process).
      
       (2) We avoid calling skb_clone(), pskb_pull() and pskb_trim().  We instead
           keep track of the offset and length of the content of each packet in
           the sk_buff metadata.  This means we don't do any allocation in the
           receive path.
      
       (3) Jumbo DATA packet parsing is now done in data_ready context.  Rather
           than cloning the packet once for each subpacket and pulling/trimming
           it, we file the packet multiple times with an annotation for each
           indicating which subpacket is there.  From that we can directly
           calculate the offset and length.
      
       (4) A call's receive queue can be accessed without taking locks (memory
           barriers do have to be used, though).
      
       (5) Incoming calls are set up from preallocated resources and immediately
           made live.  They can than have packets queued upon them and ACKs
           generated.  If insufficient resources exist, DATA packet #1 is given a
           BUSY reply and other DATA packets are discarded).
      
       (6) sk_buffs no longer take a ref on their parent call.
      
      To make this work, the following changes are made:
      
       (1) Each call's receive buffer is now a circular buffer of sk_buff
           pointers (rxtx_buffer) rather than a number of sk_buff_heads spread
           between the call and the socket.  This permits each sk_buff to be in
           the buffer multiple times.  The receive buffer is reused for the
           transmit buffer.
      
       (2) A circular buffer of annotations (rxtx_annotations) is kept parallel
           to the data buffer.  Transmission phase annotations indicate whether a
           buffered packet has been ACK'd or not and whether it needs
           retransmission.
      
           Receive phase annotations indicate whether a slot holds a whole packet
           or a jumbo subpacket and, if the latter, which subpacket.  They also
           note whether the packet has been decrypted in place.
      
       (3) DATA packet window tracking is much simplified.  Each phase has just
           two numbers representing the window (rx_hard_ack/rx_top and
           tx_hard_ack/tx_top).
      
           The hard_ack number is the sequence number before base of the window,
           representing the last packet the other side says it has consumed.
           hard_ack starts from 0 and the first packet is sequence number 1.
      
           The top number is the sequence number of the highest-numbered packet
           residing in the buffer.  Packets between hard_ack+1 and top are
           soft-ACK'd to indicate they've been received, but not yet consumed.
      
           Four macros, before(), before_eq(), after() and after_eq() are added
           to compare sequence numbers within the window.  This allows for the
           top of the window to wrap when the hard-ack sequence number gets close
           to the limit.
      
           Two flags, RXRPC_CALL_RX_LAST and RXRPC_CALL_TX_LAST, are added also
           to indicate when rx_top and tx_top point at the packets with the
           LAST_PACKET bit set, indicating the end of the phase.
      
       (4) Calls are queued on the socket 'receive queue' rather than packets.
           This means that we don't need have to invent dummy packets to queue to
           indicate abnormal/terminal states and we don't have to keep metadata
           packets (such as ABORTs) around
      
       (5) The offset and length of a (sub)packet's content are now passed to
           the verify_packet security op.  This is currently expected to decrypt
           the packet in place and validate it.
      
           However, there's now nowhere to store the revised offset and length of
           the actual data within the decrypted blob (there may be a header and
           padding to skip) because an sk_buff may represent multiple packets, so
           a locate_data security op is added to retrieve these details from the
           sk_buff content when needed.
      
       (6) recvmsg() now has to handle jumbo subpackets, where each subpacket is
           individually secured and needs to be individually decrypted.  The code
           to do this is broken out into rxrpc_recvmsg_data() and shared with the
           kernel API.  It now iterates over the call's receive buffer rather
           than walking the socket receive queue.
      
      Additional changes:
      
       (1) The timers are condensed to a single timer that is set for the soonest
           of three timeouts (delayed ACK generation, DATA retransmission and
           call lifespan).
      
       (2) Transmission of ACK and ABORT packets is effected immediately from
           process-context socket ops/kernel API calls that cause them instead of
           them being punted off to a background work item.  The data_ready
           handler still has to defer to the background, though.
      
       (3) A shutdown op is added to the AF_RXRPC socket so that the AFS
           filesystem can shut down the socket and flush its own work items
           before closing the socket to deal with any in-progress service calls.
      
      Future additional changes that will need to be considered:
      
       (1) Make sure that a call doesn't hog the front of the queue by receiving
           data from the network as fast as userspace is consuming it to the
           exclusion of other calls.
      
       (2) Transmit delayed ACKs from within recvmsg() when we've consumed
           sufficiently more packets to avoid the background work item needing to
           run.

      rxrpc: Call channels should have separate call number spaces · a1399f8b
      David Howells 提交于
      Each channel on a connection has a separate, independent number space from
      which to allocate callNumber values.  It is entirely possible, for example,
      to have a connection with four active calls, each with call number 1.
      
      Note that the callNumber values for any particular channel don't have to
      start at 1, but they are supposed to increment monotonically for that
      channel from a client's perspective and may not be reused once the call
      number is transmitted (until the epoch cycles all the way back round).
      
      Currently, however, call numbers are allocated on a per-connection basis
      and, further, are held in an rb-tree.  The rb-tree is redundant as the four
      channel pointers in the rxrpc_connection struct are entirely capable of
      pointing to all the calls currently in progress on a connection.
      
      To this end, make the following changes:
      
       (1) Handle call number allocation independently per channel.
      
       (2) Get rid of the conn->calls rb-tree.  This is overkill as a connection
           may have a maximum of four calls in progress at any one time.  Use the
           pointers in the channels[] array instead, indexed by the channel
           number from the packet.
      
       (3) For each channel, save the result of the last call that was in
           progress on that channel in conn->channels[] so that the final ACK or
           ABORT packet can be replayed if necessary.  Any call earlier than that
           is just ignored.  If we've seen the next call number in a packet, the
           last one is most definitely defunct.
      
       (4) When generating a RESPONSE packet for a connection, the call number
           counter for each channel must be included in it.
      
       (5) When parsing a RESPONSE packet for a connection, the call number
           counters contained therein should be used to set the minimum expected
           call numbers on each channel.
      
      To do in future commits:
      
       (1) Replay terminal packets based on the last call stored in
           conn->channels[].
      
       (2) Connections should be retired before the callNumber space on any
           channel runs out.
      
       (3) A server is expected to disregard or reject any new incoming call that
           has a call number less than the current call number counter.  The call
           number counter for that channel must be advanced to the new call
           number.
      
           Note that the server cannot just require that the next call that it
           sees on a channel be exactly the call number counter + 1 because then
           there's a scenario that could cause a problem: The client transmits a
           packet to initiate a connection, the network goes out, the server
           sends an ACK (which gets lost), the client sends an ABORT (which also
           gets lost); the network then reconnects, the client then reuses the
           call number for the next call (it doesn't know the server already saw
           the call number), but the server thinks it already has the first
           packet of this call (it doesn't know that the client doesn't know that
           it saw the call number the first time).

      rxrpc: Avoid using stack memory in SG lists in rxkad · a263629d
      Herbert Xu 提交于
      rxkad uses stack memory in SG lists which would not work if stacks were
      allocated from vmalloc memory.  In fact, in most cases this isn't even
      necessary as the stack memory ends up getting copied over to kmalloc
      memory.
      
      This patch eliminates all the unnecessary stack memory uses by supplying
      the final destination directly to the crypto API.  In two instances where a
      temporary buffer is actually needed we also switch use a scratch area in
      the rxrpc_call struct (only one DATA packet will be being secured or
      verified at a time).
      
      Finally there is no need to split a split-page buffer into two SG entries
      so code dealing with that has been removed.

      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking... · 5a0e3ad6
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
      
      percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
      included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
      in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
      universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
      
      percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
      this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
      headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
      needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
      used as the basis of conversion.
      
        http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
      
      The script does the followings.
      
      * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
        only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
        gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
      
      * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
        blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
        to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
        core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
        alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
        doesn't seem to be any matching order.
      
      * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
        because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
        an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
        file.
      
      The conversion was done in the following steps.
      
      1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
         over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
         and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
         files.
      
      2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
         some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
         embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
         inclusions to around 150 files.
      
      3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
         from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
      
      4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
         e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
         APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
      
      5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
         editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
         files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
         inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
         wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
         slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
         necessary.
      
      6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
      
      7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
         were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
         distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
         more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
         build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
      
         * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
         * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
         * s390 SMP allmodconfig
         * alpha SMP allmodconfig
         * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
      
      8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
         a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
      
      Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
      6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
      If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
      headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
      the specific arch.

      sg_mark_end() overwrites the page_link information, but all users want
      __sg_mark_end() behaviour where we just set the end bit. That is the most

      end point.

      [NET]: Fix incorrect sg_mark_end() calls. · 51c739d1
      David S. Miller 提交于
      This fixes scatterlist corruptions added by
      
      	commit 68e3f5dd
      	[CRYPTO] users: Fix up scatterlist conversion errors
      
      The issue is that the code calls sg_mark_end() which clobbers the
      sg_page() pointer of the final scatterlist entry.
      
      The first part fo the fix makes skb_to_sgvec() do __sg_mark_end().
      
      After considering all skb_to_sgvec() call sites the most correct
      solution is to call __sg_mark_end() in skb_to_sgvec() since that is
      what all of the callers would end up doing anyways.
      
      I suspect this might have fixed some problems in virtio_net which is
      the sole non-crypto user of skb_to_sgvec().
      
      Other similar sg_mark_end() cases were converted over to
      __sg_mark_end() as well.
      
      Arguably sg_mark_end() is a poorly named function because it doesn't
      just "mark", it clears out the page pointer as a side effect, which is
      what led to these bugs in the first place.
      
      The one remaining plain sg_mark_end() call is in scsi_alloc_sgtable()
      and arguably it could be converted to __sg_mark_end() if only so that
      we can delete this confusing interface from linux/scatterlist.h

      This avoids use of the kernel-internal "xtime" variable directly outside
      of the actual time-related functions.  Instead, use the helper functions
      that we already have available to us.
      
      This doesn't actually change any behaviour, but this will allow us to
      fix the fact that "xtime" isn't updated very often with CONFIG_NO_HZ
      (because much of the realtime information is maintained as separate
      offsets to 'xtime'), which has caused interfaces that use xtime directly
      to get a time that is out of sync with the real-time clock by up to a
      third of a second or so.
