      net: adding memory barrier to the poll and receive callbacks · a57de0b4
      Jiri Olsa 提交于
      Adding memory barrier after the poll_wait function, paired with
      receive callbacks. Adding fuctions sock_poll_wait and sk_has_sleeper
      to wrap the memory barrier.
      
      Without the memory barrier, following race can happen.
      The race fires, when following code paths meet, and the tp->rcv_nxt
      and __add_wait_queue updates stay in CPU caches.
      
      CPU1                         CPU2
      
      sys_select                   receive packet
        ...                        ...
        __add_wait_queue           update tp->rcv_nxt
        ...                        ...
        tp->rcv_nxt check          sock_def_readable
        ...                        {
        schedule                      ...
                                      if (sk->sk_sleep && waitqueue_active(sk->sk_sleep))
                                              wake_up_interruptible(sk->sk_sleep)
                                      ...
                                   }
      
      If there was no cache the code would work ok, since the wait_queue and
      rcv_nxt are opposit to each other.
      
      Meaning that once tp->rcv_nxt is updated by CPU2, the CPU1 either already
      passed the tp->rcv_nxt check and sleeps, or will get the new value for
      tp->rcv_nxt and will return with new data mask.
      In both cases the process (CPU1) is being added to the wait queue, so the
      waitqueue_active (CPU2) call cannot miss and will wake up CPU1.
      
      The bad case is when the __add_wait_queue changes done by CPU1 stay in its
      cache, and so does the tp->rcv_nxt update on CPU2 side.  The CPU1 will then
      endup calling schedule and sleep forever if there are no more data on the
      socket.
      
      Calls to poll_wait in following modules were ommited:

      KEYS: Make request_key() and co fundamentally asynchronous · 76181c13
      David Howells 提交于
      Make request_key() and co fundamentally asynchronous to make it easier for
      NFS to make use of them.  There are now accessor functions that do
      asynchronous constructions, a wait function to wait for construction to
      complete, and a completion function for the key type to indicate completion
      of construction.
      
      Note that the construction queue is now gone.  Instead, keys under
      construction are linked in to the appropriate keyring in advance, and that
      anyone encountering one must wait for it to be complete before they can use
      it.  This is done automatically for userspace.
      
      The following auxiliary changes are also made:
      
       (1) Key type implementation stuff is split from linux/key.h into
           linux/key-type.h.
      
       (2) AF_RXRPC provides a way to allocate null rxrpc-type keys so that AFS does
           not need to call key_instantiate_and_link() directly.
      
       (3) Adjust the debugging macros so that they're -Wformat checked even if
           they are disabled, and make it so they can be enabled simply by defining
           __KDEBUG to be consistent with other code of mine.
      
       (3) Documentation.

      [NET]: Make socket creation namespace safe. · 1b8d7ae4
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      This patch passes in the namespace a new socket should be created in
      and has the socket code do the appropriate reference counting.  By
      virtue of this all socket create methods are touched.  In addition
      the socket create methods are modified so that they will fail if
      you attempt to create a socket in a non-default network namespace.
      
      Failing if we attempt to create a socket outside of the default
      network namespace ensures that as we incrementally make the network stack
      network namespace aware we will not export functionality that someone
      has not audited and made certain is network namespace safe.
      Allowing us to partially enable network namespaces before all of the
      exotic protocols are supported.
      
      Any protocol layers I have missed will fail to compile because I now
      pass an extra parameter into the socket creation code.

      [NET]: Make /proc/net per network namespace · 457c4cbc
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      This patch makes /proc/net per network namespace.  It modifies the global
      variables proc_net and proc_net_stat to be per network namespace.
      The proc_net file helpers are modified to take a network namespace argument,
      and all of their callers are fixed to pass &init_net for that argument.
      This ensures that all of the /proc/net files are only visible and
      usable in the initial network namespace until the code behind them
      has been updated to be handle multiple network namespaces.
      
      Making /proc/net per namespace is necessary as at least some files
      in /proc/net depend upon the set of network devices which is per
      network namespace, and even more files in /proc/net have contents
      that are relevant to a single network namespace.

      Cleanup non-arch xtime uses, use get_seconds() or current_kernel_time(). · 2c6b47de
      john stultz 提交于
      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.

      [AF_RXRPC]: Add an interface to the AF_RXRPC module for the AFS filesystem to use · 651350d1
      David Howells 提交于
      Add an interface to the AF_RXRPC module so that the AFS filesystem module can
      more easily make use of the services available.  AFS still opens a socket but
      then uses the action functions in lieu of sendmsg() and registers an intercept
      functions to grab messages before they're queued on the socket Rx queue.
      
      This permits AFS (or whatever) to:
      
       (1) Avoid the overhead of using the recvmsg() call.
      
       (2) Use different keys directly on individual client calls on one socket
           rather than having to open a whole slew of sockets, one for each key it
           might want to use.
      
       (3) Avoid calling request_key() at the point of issue of a call or opening of
           a socket.  This is done instead by AFS at the point of open(), unlink() or
           other VFS operation and the key handed through.
      
       (4) Request the use of something other than GFP_KERNEL to allocate memory.
      
      Furthermore:
      
       (*) The socket buffer markings used by RxRPC are made available for AFS so
           that it can interpret the cooked RxRPC messages itself.
      
       (*) rxgen (un)marshalling abort codes are made available.
      
      
      The following documentation for the kernel interface is added to
      Documentation/networking/rxrpc.txt:
      
      =========================
      AF_RXRPC KERNEL INTERFACE
      =========================
      
      The AF_RXRPC module also provides an interface for use by in-kernel utilities
      such as the AFS filesystem.  This permits such a utility to:
      
       (1) Use different keys directly on individual client calls on one socket
           rather than having to open a whole slew of sockets, one for each key it
           might want to use.
      
       (2) Avoid having RxRPC call request_key() at the point of issue of a call or
           opening of a socket.  Instead the utility is responsible for requesting a
           key at the appropriate point.  AFS, for instance, would do this during VFS
           operations such as open() or unlink().  The key is then handed through
           when the call is initiated.
      
       (3) Request the use of something other than GFP_KERNEL to allocate memory.
      
       (4) Avoid the overhead of using the recvmsg() call.  RxRPC messages can be
           intercepted before they get put into the socket Rx queue and the socket
           buffers manipulated directly.
      
      To use the RxRPC facility, a kernel utility must still open an AF_RXRPC socket,
      bind an addess as appropriate and listen if it's to be a server socket, but
      then it passes this to the kernel interface functions.
      
      The kernel interface functions are as follows:
      
       (*) Begin a new client call.
      
      	struct rxrpc_call *
      	rxrpc_kernel_begin_call(struct socket *sock,
      				struct sockaddr_rxrpc *srx,
      				struct key *key,
      				unsigned long user_call_ID,
      				gfp_t gfp);
      
           This allocates the infrastructure to make a new RxRPC call and assigns
           call and connection numbers.  The call will be made on the UDP port that
           the socket is bound to.  The call will go to the destination address of a
           connected client socket unless an alternative is supplied (srx is
           non-NULL).
      
           If a key is supplied then this will be used to secure the call instead of
           the key bound to the socket with the RXRPC_SECURITY_KEY sockopt.  Calls
           secured in this way will still share connections if at all possible.
      
           The user_call_ID is equivalent to that supplied to sendmsg() in the
           control data buffer.  It is entirely feasible to use this to point to a
           kernel data structure.
      
           If this function is successful, an opaque reference to the RxRPC call is
           returned.  The caller now holds a reference on this and it must be
           properly ended.
      
       (*) End a client call.
      
      	void rxrpc_kernel_end_call(struct rxrpc_call *call);
      
           This is used to end a previously begun call.  The user_call_ID is expunged
           from AF_RXRPC's knowledge and will not be seen again in association with
           the specified call.
      
       (*) Send data through a call.
      
      	int rxrpc_kernel_send_data(struct rxrpc_call *call, struct msghdr *msg,
      				   size_t len);
      
           This is used to supply either the request part of a client call or the
           reply part of a server call.  msg.msg_iovlen and msg.msg_iov specify the
           data buffers to be used.  msg_iov may not be NULL and must point
           exclusively to in-kernel virtual addresses.  msg.msg_flags may be given
           MSG_MORE if there will be subsequent data sends for this call.
      
           The msg must not specify a destination address, control data or any flags
           other than MSG_MORE.  len is the total amount of data to transmit.
      
       (*) Abort a call.
      
      	void rxrpc_kernel_abort_call(struct rxrpc_call *call, u32 abort_code);
      
           This is used to abort a call if it's still in an abortable state.  The
           abort code specified will be placed in the ABORT message sent.
      
       (*) Intercept received RxRPC messages.
      
      	typedef void (*rxrpc_interceptor_t)(struct sock *sk,
      					    unsigned long user_call_ID,
      					    struct sk_buff *skb);
      
      	void
      	rxrpc_kernel_intercept_rx_messages(struct socket *sock,
      					   rxrpc_interceptor_t interceptor);
      
           This installs an interceptor function on the specified AF_RXRPC socket.
           All messages that would otherwise wind up in the socket's Rx queue are
           then diverted to this function.  Note that care must be taken to process
           the messages in the right order to maintain DATA message sequentiality.
      
           The interceptor function itself is provided with the address of the socket
           and handling the incoming message, the ID assigned by the kernel utility
           to the call and the socket buffer containing the message.
      
           The skb->mark field indicates the type of message:
      
      	MARK				MEANING
      	===============================	=======================================
      	RXRPC_SKB_MARK_DATA		Data message
      	RXRPC_SKB_MARK_FINAL_ACK	Final ACK received for an incoming call
      	RXRPC_SKB_MARK_BUSY		Client call rejected as server busy
      	RXRPC_SKB_MARK_REMOTE_ABORT	Call aborted by peer
      	RXRPC_SKB_MARK_NET_ERROR	Network error detected
      	RXRPC_SKB_MARK_LOCAL_ERROR	Local error encountered
      	RXRPC_SKB_MARK_NEW_CALL		New incoming call awaiting acceptance
      
           The remote abort message can be probed with rxrpc_kernel_get_abort_code().
           The two error messages can be probed with rxrpc_kernel_get_error_number().
           A new call can be accepted with rxrpc_kernel_accept_call().
      
           Data messages can have their contents extracted with the usual bunch of
           socket buffer manipulation functions.  A data message can be determined to
           be the last one in a sequence with rxrpc_kernel_is_data_last().  When a
           data message has been used up, rxrpc_kernel_data_delivered() should be
           called on it..
      
           Non-data messages should be handled to rxrpc_kernel_free_skb() to dispose
           of.  It is possible to get extra refs on all types of message for later
           freeing, but this may pin the state of a call until the message is finally
           freed.
      
       (*) Accept an incoming call.
      
      	struct rxrpc_call *
      	rxrpc_kernel_accept_call(struct socket *sock,
      				 unsigned long user_call_ID);
      
           This is used to accept an incoming call and to assign it a call ID.  This
           function is similar to rxrpc_kernel_begin_call() and calls accepted must
           be ended in the same way.
      
           If this function is successful, an opaque reference to the RxRPC call is
           returned.  The caller now holds a reference on this and it must be
           properly ended.
      
       (*) Reject an incoming call.
      
      	int rxrpc_kernel_reject_call(struct socket *sock);
      
           This is used to reject the first incoming call on the socket's queue with
           a BUSY message.  -ENODATA is returned if there were no incoming calls.
           Other errors may be returned if the call had been aborted (-ECONNABORTED)
           or had timed out (-ETIME).
      
       (*) Record the delivery of a data message and free it.
      
      	void rxrpc_kernel_data_delivered(struct sk_buff *skb);
      
           This is used to record a data message as having been delivered and to
           update the ACK state for the call.  The socket buffer will be freed.
      
       (*) Free a message.
      
      	void rxrpc_kernel_free_skb(struct sk_buff *skb);
      
           This is used to free a non-DATA socket buffer intercepted from an AF_RXRPC
           socket.
      
       (*) Determine if a data message is the last one on a call.
      
      	bool rxrpc_kernel_is_data_last(struct sk_buff *skb);
      
           This is used to determine if a socket buffer holds the last data message
           to be received for a call (true will be returned if it does, false
           if not).
      
           The data message will be part of the reply on a client call and the
           request on an incoming call.  In the latter case there will be more
           messages, but in the former case there will not.
      
       (*) Get the abort code from an abort message.
      
      	u32 rxrpc_kernel_get_abort_code(struct sk_buff *skb);
      
           This is used to extract the abort code from a remote abort message.
      
       (*) Get the error number from a local or network error message.
      
      	int rxrpc_kernel_get_error_number(struct sk_buff *skb);
      
           This is used to extract the error number from a message indicating either
           a local error occurred or a network error occurred.
