We add a new ioctl for AF_TIPC that can be used to fetch the logical name for a link to a remote node on a given bearer. This should be used in combination with link state subscriptions. The logical name size limit definitions are moved to tipc.h, as they are now also needed by the new ioctl.

When links are established over a bearer plane, we create a node local publication containing information about the peer node and bearer plane.

Now tipc routing hierarchy comprises the structures 'node', 'link'and 'bearer'. The whole hierarchy is protected by a big read/write lock, tipc_net_lock, to ensure that nothing is added or removed while code is accessing any of these structures. Obviously the locking policy makes node, link and bearer components closely bound together so that their relationship becomes unnecessarily complex. In the worst case, such locking policy not only has a negative influence on performance, but also it's prone to lead to deadlock occasionally. In order o decouple the complex relationship between bearer and node as well as link, the locking policy is adjusted as follows: - Bearer level RTNL lock is used on update side, and RCU is used on read side. Meanwhile, all bearer instances including broadcast bearer are saved into bearer_list array. - Node and link level All node instances are saved into two tipc_node_list and node_htable lists. The two lists are protected by node_list_lock on write side, and they are guarded with RCU lock on read side. All members in node structure including link instances are protected by node spin lock. - The relationship between bearer and node When link accesses bearer, it first needs to find the bearer with its bearer identity from the bearer_list array. When bearer accesses node, it can iterate the node_htable hash list with the node address to find the corresponding node. In the new locking policy, every component has its private locking solution and the relationship between bearer and node is very simple, that is, they can find each other with node address or bearer identity from node_htable hash list or bearer_list array. Until now above all changes have been done, so tipc_net_lock can be removed safely.

Currently on both paths of message transmission and reception, the read lock of tipc_net_lock must be held before bearer is accessed, while the write lock of tipc_net_lock has to be taken before bearer is configured. Although it can ensure that bearer is always valid on the two data paths, link and bearer is closely bound together. So as the part of effort of removing tipc_net_lock, the locking policy of bearer protection will be adjusted as below: on the two data paths, RCU is used, and on the configuration path of bearer, RTNL lock is applied. Now RCU just covers the path of message reception. To make it possible to protect the path of message transmission with RCU, link should not use its stored bearer pointer to access bearer, but it should use the bearer identity of its attached bearer as index to get bearer instance from bearer_list array, which can help us decouple the relationship between bearer and link. As a result, bearer on the path of message transmission can be safely protected by RCU when we access bearer_list array within RCU lock protection.

Without properly implicit or explicit read memory barrier, it's unsafe to read an atomic variable with atomic_read() from another thread which is different with the thread of changing the atomic variable with atomic_inc() or atomic_dec(). So a stale tipc_num_links may be got with atomic_read() in tipc_node_get_links(). If the tipc_num_links variable type is converted from atomic to unsigned integer and node list lock is used to protect it, the issue would be avoided.

When a node is created, tipc_net_lock read lock is first held and then node_create_lock is grabbed in order to prevent the same node from being created and inserted into both node list and hlist twice. But when we query node from the two node lists, we only hold tipc_net_lock read lock without grabbing node_create_lock. Obviously this locking policy is unable to guarantee that the two node lists are always synchronized especially when the operation of changing and accessing them occurs in different contexts like currently doing. Therefore, rename node_create_lock to node_list_lock to protect the two node lists, that is, whenever node is inserted into them or node is queried from them, the node_list_lock should be always held. As a result, tipc_net_lock read lock becomes redundant and then can be removed from the node query functions.

In commit 7d33939f ("tipc: delay delete of link when failover is needed") we introduced a loop for finding and removing a link pointer in an array. The removal is done after we have left the loop, giving the impression that one may remove the wrong pointer if no matching element is found. This is not really a bug, since we know that there will always be a matching element, but it looks wrong, and causes a smatch warning. We fix this loop with this commit.

When a bearer is disabled, all its attached links are deleted. Ideally, we should do link failover to redundant links on other bearers, if there are any, in such cases. This would be consistent with current behavior when a link is reset, but not deleted. However, due to the complexity involved, and the (wrongly) perceived low demand for this feature, it was never implemented until now. We mark the doomed link for deletion with a new flag, but wait until the failover process is finished before we actually delete it. With the improved link tunnelling/failover code introduced earlier in this commit series, it is now easy to identify a spot in the code where the failover is finished and it is safe to delete the marked link. Moreover, the test for the flag and the deletion can be done synchronously, and outside the most time critical data path.

When the first fragment of a long data data message is received on a link, a reassembly buffer large enough to hold the data from this and all subsequent fragments of the message is allocated. The payload of each new fragment is copied into this buffer upon arrival. When the last fragment is received, the reassembled message is delivered upwards to the port/socket layer. Not only is this an inefficient approach, but it may also cause bursts of reassembly failures in low memory situations. since we may fail to allocate the necessary large buffer in the first place. Furthermore, after 100 subsequent such failures the link will be reset, something that in reality aggravates the situation. To remedy this problem, this patch introduces a different approach. Instead of allocating a big reassembly buffer, we now append the arriving fragments to a reassembly chain on the link, and deliver the whole chain up to the socket layer once the last fragment has been received. This is safe because the retransmission layer of a TIPC link always delivers packets in strict uninterrupted order, to the reassembly layer as to all other upper layers. Hence there can never be more than one fragment chain pending reassembly at any given time in a link, and we can trust (but still verify) that the fragments will be chained up in the correct order.

I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member) The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter: hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member) Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate. Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required: - Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h - Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones. - A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this was modified to use 'obj->member' instead. - Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.

Upon establishing a first link between two nodes, there is currently a risk that the two endpoints will disagree on exactly which sequence number reception and acknowleding of broadcast packets should start. The following scenarios may happen: 1: Node A sends an ACTIVATE message to B, telling it to start acking packets from sequence number N. 2: Node A sends out broadcast N, but does not expect an acknowledge from B, since B is not yet in its broadcast receiver's list. 3: Node A receives ACK for N from all nodes except B, and releases packet N. 4: Node B receives the ACTIVATE, activates its link endpoint, and stores the value N as sequence number of first expected packet. 5: Node B sends a NAME_DISTR message to A. 6: Node A receives the NAME_DISTR message, and activates its endpoint. At this moment B is added to A's broadcast receiver's set. Node A also sets sequence number 0 as the first broadcast packet to be received from B. 7: Node A sends broadcast N+1. 8: B receives N+1, determines there is a gap in the sequence, since it is expecting N, and sends a NACK for N back to A. 9: Node A has already released N, so no retransmission is possible. The broadcast link in direction A->B is stale. In addition to, or instead of, 7-9 above, the following may happen: 10: Node B sends broadcast M > 0 to A. 11: Node A receives M, falsely decides there must be a gap, since it is expecting packet 0, and asks for retransmission of packets [0,M-1]. 12: Node B has already released these packets, so the broadcast link is stale in direction B->A. We solve this problem by introducing a new unicast message type, BCAST_PROTOCOL/STATE, to convey the sequence number of the next sent broadcast packet to the other endpoint, at exactly the moment that endpoint is added to the own node's broadcast receivers list, and before any other unicast messages are permitted to be sent. Furthermore, we don't allow any node to start receiving and processing broadcast packets until this new synchronization message has been received. To maintain backwards compatibility, we still open up for broadcast reception if we receive a NAME_DISTR message without any preceding broadcast sync message. In this case, we must assume that the other end has an older code version, and will never send out the new synchronization message. Hence, for mixed old and new nodes, the issue arising in 7-12 of the above may happen with the same probability as before.

In essence, these routines ensure that address <0.0.0> is treated as an alias for "this node", regardless of which network address the node is actually using. Old users of the pre-existing more strict match in_own_cluster() have been accordingly redirected to what is now called in_own_cluster_exact() --- which does not extend matching to <0,0,0>.

Adds support for the new "node signature" in neighbor discovery messages, which is a 16 bit identifier chosen randomly when TIPC is initialized. This field makes it possible for nodes receiving a neighbor discovery message to detect if multiple neighboring nodes are using the same network address (i.e. <Z.C.N>), even when the messages are arriving on different interfaces. This first phase of node signature support creates the signature, incorporates it into outgoing neighbor discovery messages, and tracks the signature used by valid neighbors. An upcoming patch builds on this foundation to implement the improved duplicate neighbor detection checking.

Completely redesigns broadcast link ACK and NACK mechanisms to prevent spurious retransmit requests in dual LAN networks, and to prevent the broadcast link from stalling due to the failure of a receiving node to acknowledge receiving a broadcast message or request its retransmission. Note: These changes only impact the timing of when ACK and NACK messages are sent, and not the basic broadcast link protocol itself, so inter- operability with nodes using the "classic" algorithms is maintained. The revised algorithms are as follows: 1) An explicit ACK message is still sent after receiving 16 in-sequence messages, and implicit ACK information continues to be carried in other unicast link message headers (including link state messages). However, the timing of explicit ACKs is now based on the receiving node's absolute network address rather than its relative network address to ensure that the failure of another node does not delay the ACK beyond its 16 message target. 2) A NACK message is now typically sent only when a message gap persists for two consecutive incoming link state messages; this ensures that a suspected gap is not confirmed until both LANs in a dual LAN network have had an opportunity to deliver the message, thereby preventing spurious NACKs. A NACK message can also be generated by the arrival of a single link state message, if the deferred queue is so big that the current message gap cannot be the result of "normal" mis-ordering due to the use of dual LANs (or one LAN using a bonded interface). Since link state messages typically arrive at different nodes at different times the problem of multiple nodes issuing identical NACKs simultaneously is inherently avoided. 3) Nodes continue to "peek" at NACK messages sent by other nodes. If another node requests retransmission of a message gap suspected (but not yet confirmed) by the peeking node, the peeking node forgets about the gap and does not generate a duplicate retransmit request. (If the peeking node subsequently fails to receive the lost message, later link state messages will cause it to rediscover and confirm the gap and send another NACK.) 4) Message gap "equality" is now determined by the start of the gap only. This is sufficient to deal with the most common cases of message loss, and eliminates the need for complex end of gap computations. 5) A peeking node no longer tries to determine whether it should send a complementary NACK, since the most common cases of message loss don't require it to be sent. Consequently, the node no longer examines the "broadcast tag" field of a NACK message when peeking.

Fix a bug that can prevent TIPC from sending broadcast messages to a node if contact with the node is lost and then regained. The problem occurs if the broadcast link first clears the flag indicating the node is part of the link's distribution set (when it loses contact with the node), and later fails to restore the flag (when contact is regained); restoration fails if contact with the node is regained by implicit unicast link activation triggered by the arrival of a data message, rather than explicitly by the arrival of a link activation message. The broadcast link now uses separate fields to track whether a node is theoretically capable of receiving broadcast messages versus whether it is actually part of the link's distribution set. The former member is updated by the receipt of link protocol messages, which can occur at any time; the latter member is updated only when contact with the node is gained or lost. This change also permits the simplification of several conditional expressions since the broadcast link's "supported" field can now only be set if there are working links to the associated node.

Adds checks to TIPC's broadcast link so that it ignores any acknowledgement message containing a sequence number that does not correspond to an unacknowledged message currently in the broadcast link's transmit queue. This change prevents the broadcast link from becoming stalled if a newly booted node receives stale broadcast link acknowledgement information from another node that has not yet fully synchronized its end of the broadcast link to reflect the current state of the new node's end.

Fixes oversight that allowed broadcast link node map to be updated without first taking the broadcast link spinlock that protects the map. As part of this fix the node map has been incorporated into the broadcast link structure to make the need for such protection more evident.

Enhances TIPC to ensure that a node that loses contact with a neighboring node does not allow contact to be re-established until it sees that its peer has also recognized the loss of contact. Previously, nodes that were connected by two or more links could encounter a situation in which node A would lose contact with node B on all of its links, purge its name table of names published by B, and then fail to repopulate those names once contact with B was restored. This would happen because B was able to re-establish one or more links so quickly that it never reached a point where it had no links to A -- meaning that B never saw a loss of contact with A, and consequently didn't re-publish its names to A. This problem is now prevented by enhancing the cleanup done by TIPC following a loss of contact with a neighboring node to ensure that node A ignores all messages sent by B until it receives a LINK_PROTOCOL message that indicates B has lost contact with A, thereby preventing the (re)establishment of links between the nodes. The loss of contact is recognized when a RESET or ACTIVATE message is received that has a "redundant link exists" field of 0, indicating that B's sending link endpoint is in a reset state and that B has no other working links. Additionally, TIPC now suppresses the sending of (most) link protocol messages to a neighboring node while it is cleaning up after an earlier loss of contact with that node. This stops the peer node from prematurely activating its link endpoint, which would prevent TIPC from later activating its own end. TIPC still allows outgoing RESET messages to occur during cleanup, to avoid problems if its own node recognizes the loss of contact first and tries to notify the peer of the situation. Finally, TIPC now recognizes an impending loss of contact with a peer node as soon as it receives a RESET message on a working link that is the peer's only link to the node, and ensures that the link protocol suppression mentioned above goes into effect right away -- that is, even before its own link endpoints have failed. This is necessary to ensure correct operation when there are redundant links between the nodes, since otherwise TIPC would send an ACTIVATE message upon receiving a RESET on its first link and only begin suppressing when a RESET on its second link was received, instead of initiating suppression with the first RESET message as it needs to. Note: The reworked cleanup code also eliminates a check that prevented a link endpoint's discovery object from responding to incoming messages while stale name table entries are being purged. This check is now unnecessary and would have slowed down re-establishment of communication between the nodes in some situations.

Ensure that broadcast link messages that have not been acknowledged by a newly failed node do not get an implied acknowledgement until the failed node is removed from the broadcast link's map of reachable nodes. Previously, a race condition allowed a new broadcast link message to be sent after the implicit acknowledgement processing was completed, but before the map of reachable nodes was updated, resulting in the message having an expected acknowledgement count that required the failed node to explicitly acknowledge the message. Since this would never occur the new message would remain in the broadcast link's transmit queue forever, eventually causing the link to become congested and "stall". Delaying the implicit acknowledgement processing until after the update of the map of reachable nodes eliminates this race condition and prevents stalling.

Enhances cleanup of broadcast link-related information when contact with a node is lost. 1) All broadcast link-related cleanup now occurs only if the lost node was capable of communicating over the broadcast link. 2) Following cleanup, the lost node is marked as no longer supporting the broadcast link, ensuring that any remaining broadcast messages received from that node prior to the re-establishment of a normal communication link are ignored.

Enhances link creation code as follows: 1) Detects illegal attempts to add a requested link earlier in the link creation process. This prevents TIPC from wasting time initializing a link object it then throws away, and also eliminates the code needed to do the throwing away. 2) Passes in the node object associated with the requested link. This allows TIPC to eliminate a search to locate the node object, as well as code that attempted to create the node if it doesn't exist.
