Fix the firewall route keepalive part of AF_RXRPC which is currently function incorrectly by replying to VERSION REPLY packets from the server with VERSION REQUEST packets. Instead, send VERSION REPLY packets to the peers of service connections to act as keep-alives 20s after the latest packet was transmitted to that peer. Also, just discard VERSION REPLY packets rather than replying to them. Signed-off-by: NDavid Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

All the kernel_sendmsg() calls in rxrpc_send_data_packet() need to send both parts of the iov[] buffer, but one of them does not. Fix it so that it does. Without this, short IPv6 rxrpc DATA packets may be seen that have the rxrpc header included, but no payload.

We need to transmit a packet every so often to act as a keepalive for the peer (which has a timeout from the last time it received a packet) and also to prevent any intervening firewalls from closing the route. Do this by resetting a timer every time we transmit a packet. If the timer ever expires, we transmit a PING ACK packet and thereby also elicit a PING RESPONSE ACK from the other side - which prevents our last-rx timeout from expiring. The timer is set to 1/6 of the last-rx timeout so that we can detect the other side going away if it misses 6 replies in a row. This is particularly necessary for servers where the processing of the service function may take a significant amount of time. Signed-off-by: NDavid Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

Add an extra timeout that is set/updated when we send a DATA packet that has the request-ack flag set. This allows us to detect if we don't get an ACK in response to the latest flagged packet. The ACK packet is adjudged to have been lost if it doesn't turn up within 2*RTT of the transmission. If the timeout occurs, we schedule the sending of a PING ACK to find out the state of the other side. If a new DATA packet is ready to go sooner, we cancel the sending of the ping and set the request-ack flag on that instead. If we get back a PING-RESPONSE ACK that indicates a lower tx_top than what we had at the time of the ping transmission, we adjudge all the DATA packets sent between the response tx_top and the ping-time tx_top to have been lost and retransmit immediately. Rather than sending a PING ACK, we could just pick a DATA packet and speculatively retransmit that with request-ack set. It should result in either a REQUESTED ACK or a DUPLICATE ACK which we can then use in lieu the a PING-RESPONSE ACK mentioned above. Signed-off-by: NDavid Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

Fix call expiry handling in the following ways (1) If all the request data from a client call is acked, don't send a follow up IDLE ACK with firstPacket == 1 and previousPacket == 0 as this appears to fool some servers into thinking everything has been accepted. (2) Never send an abort back to the server once it has ACK'd all the request packets; rather just try to reuse the channel for the next call. The first request DATA packet of the next call on the same channel will implicitly ACK the entire reply of the dead call - even if we haven't transmitted it yet. (3) Don't send RX_CALL_TIMEOUT in an ABORT packet, librx uses abort codes to pass local errors to the caller in addition to remote errors, and this is meant to be local only. The following also need to be addressed in future patches: (4) Service calls should send PING ACKs as 'keep alives' if the server is still processing the call. (5) VERSION REPLY packets should be sent to the peers of service connections to act as keep-alives. This is used to keep firewall routes in place. The AFS CM should enable this.

Make it possible for a client to use AuriStor's service upgrade facility. The client does this by adding an RXRPC_UPGRADE_SERVICE control message to the first sendmsg() of a call. This takes no parameters. When recvmsg() starts returning data from the call, the service ID field in the returned msg_name will reflect the result of the upgrade attempt. If the upgrade was ignored, srx_service will match what was set in the sendmsg(); if the upgrade happened the srx_service will be altered to indicate the service the server upgraded to. Note that: (1) The choice of upgrade service is up to the server (2) Further client calls to the same server that would share a connection are blocked if an upgrade probe is in progress. (3) This should only be used to probe the service. Clients should then use the returned service ID in all subsequent communications with that server (and not set the upgrade). Note that the kernel will not retain this information should the connection expire from its cache. (4) If a server that supports upgrading is replaced by one that doesn't, whilst a connection is live, and if the replacement is running, say, OpenAFS 1.6.4 or older or an older IBM AFS, then the replacement server will not respond to packets sent to the upgraded connection. At this point, calls will time out and the server must be reprobed. Signed-off-by: NDavid Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

Don't request an ACK on the last DATA packet of a call's Tx phase as for a client there will be a reply packet or some sort of ACK to shift phase. If the ACK is requested, OpenAFS sends a REQUESTED-ACK ACK with soft-ACKs in it and doesn't follow up with a hard-ACK. If we don't set the flag, OpenAFS will send a DELAY ACK that hard-ACKs the reply data, thereby allowing the call to terminate cleanly. Signed-off-by: NDavid Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

(2) When we're deciding whether or not to request an ACK, rather than checking if we're in fast-retransmit mode check instead if we're retransmitting. (3) Don't invoke the lose_skb tracepoint when losing a Tx packet as we're not altering the sk_buff refcount nor are we just seeing it after getting it off the Tx list.

Implement RxRPC slow-start, which is similar to RFC 5681 for TCP. A tracepoint is added to log the state of the congestion management algorithm and the decisions it makes. Notes: (1) Since we send fixed-size DATA packets (apart from the final packet in each phase), counters and calculations are in terms of packets rather than bytes. (2) The ACK packet carries the equivalent of TCP SACK. (3) The FLIGHT_SIZE calculation in RFC 5681 doesn't seem particularly suited to SACK of a small number of packets. It seems that, almost inevitably, by the time three 'duplicate' ACKs have been seen, we have narrowed the loss down to one or two missing packets, and the FLIGHT_SIZE calculation ends up as 2. (4) In rxrpc_resend(), if there was no data that apparently needed retransmission, we transmit a PING ACK to ask the peer to tell us what its Rx window state is.

In addition to sending a PING ACK to gain RTT data, we can set the RXRPC_REQUEST_ACK flag on a DATA packet and get a REQUESTED-ACK ACK. The ACK packet contains the serial number of the packet it is in response to, so we can look through the Tx buffer for a matching DATA packet. This requires that the data packets be stamped with the time of transmission as a ktime rather than having the resend_at time in jiffies. This further requires the resend code to do the resend determination in ktimes and convert to jiffies to set the timer. Signed-off-by: NDavid Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

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. Signed-off-by: NDavid Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

rxrpc calls shouldn't hold refs on the sock struct. This was done so that the socket wouldn't go away whilst the call was in progress, such that the call could reach the socket's queues. However, we can mark the socket as requiring an RCU release and rely on the RCU read lock. To make this work, we do: (1) rxrpc_release_call() removes the call's call user ID. This is now only called from socket operations and not from the call processor: rxrpc_accept_call() / rxrpc_kernel_accept_call() rxrpc_reject_call() / rxrpc_kernel_reject_call() rxrpc_kernel_end_call() rxrpc_release_calls_on_socket() rxrpc_recvmsg() Though it is also called in the cleanup path of rxrpc_accept_incoming_call() before we assign a user ID. (2) Pass the socket pointer into rxrpc_release_call() rather than getting it from the call so that we can get rid of uninitialised calls. (3) Fix call processor queueing to pass a ref to the work queue and to release that ref at the end of the processor function (or to pass it back to the work queue if we have to requeue). (4) Skip out of the call processor function asap if the call is complete and don't requeue it if the call is complete. (5) Clean up the call immediately that the refcount reaches 0 rather than trying to defer it. Actual deallocation is deferred to RCU, however. (6) Don't hold socket refs for allocated calls. (7) Use the RCU read lock when queueing a message on a socket and treat the call's socket pointer according to RCU rules and check it for NULL. We also need to use the RCU read lock when viewing a call through procfs. (8) Transmit the final ACK/ABORT to a client call in rxrpc_release_call() if this hasn't been done yet so that we can then disconnect the call. Once the call is disconnected, it won't have any access to the connection struct and the UDP socket for the call work processor to be able to send the ACK. Terminal retransmission will be handled by the connection processor. (9) Release all calls immediately on the closing of a socket rather than trying to defer this. Incomplete calls will be aborted. The call refcount model is much simplified. Refs are held on the call by: (1) A socket's user ID tree. (2) A socket's incoming call secureq and acceptq. (3) A kernel service that has a call in progress. (4) A queued call work processor. We have to take care to put any call that we failed to queue. (5) sk_buffs on a socket's receive queue. A future patch will get rid of this. Whilst we're at it, we can do: (1) Get rid of the RXRPC_CALL_EV_RELEASE event. Release is now done entirely from the socket routines and never from the call's processor. (2) Get rid of the RXRPC_CALL_DEAD state. Calls now end in the RXRPC_CALL_COMPLETE state. (3) Get rid of the rxrpc_call::destroyer work item. Calls are now torn down when their refcount reaches 0 and then handed over to RCU for final cleanup. (4) Get rid of the rxrpc_call::deadspan timer. Calls are cleaned up immediately they're finished with and don't hang around. Post-completion retransmission is handled by the connection processor once the call is disconnected. (5) Get rid of the dead call expiry setting as there's no longer a timer to set. (6) rxrpc_destroy_all_calls() can just check that the call list is empty.

Don't expose skbs to in-kernel users, such as the AFS filesystem, but instead provide a notification hook the indicates that a call needs attention and another that indicates that there's a new call to be collected. This makes the following possibilities more achievable: (1) Call refcounting can be made simpler if skbs don't hold refs to calls. (2) skbs referring to non-data events will be able to be freed much sooner rather than being queued for AFS to pick up as rxrpc_kernel_recv_data will be able to consult the call state. (3) We can shortcut the receive phase when a call is remotely aborted because we don't have to go through all the packets to get to the one cancelling the operation. (4) It makes it easier to do encryption/decryption directly between AFS's buffers and sk_buffs. (5) Encryption/decryption can more easily be done in the AFS's thread contexts - usually that of the userspace process that issued a syscall - rather than in one of rxrpc's background threads on a workqueue. (6) AFS will be able to wait synchronously on a call inside AF_RXRPC. To make this work, the following interface function has been added: int rxrpc_kernel_recv_data( struct socket *sock, struct rxrpc_call *call, void *buffer, size_t bufsize, size_t *_offset, bool want_more, u32 *_abort_code); This is the recvmsg equivalent. It allows the caller to find out about the state of a specific call and to transfer received data into a buffer piecemeal. afs_extract_data() and rxrpc_kernel_recv_data() now do all the extraction logic between them. They don't wait synchronously yet because the socket lock needs to be dealt with. Five interface functions have been removed: rxrpc_kernel_is_data_last() rxrpc_kernel_get_abort_code() rxrpc_kernel_get_error_number() rxrpc_kernel_free_skb() rxrpc_kernel_data_consumed() As a temporary hack, sk_buffs going to an in-kernel call are queued on the rxrpc_call struct (->knlrecv_queue) rather than being handed over to the in-kernel user. To process the queue internally, a temporary function, temp_deliver_data() has been added. This will be replaced with common code between the rxrpc_recvmsg() path and the kernel_rxrpc_recv_data() path in a future patch.

I have left: rxrpc_kernel_is_data_last() rxrpc_kernel_get_abort_code() rxrpc_kernel_get_error_number() rxrpc_kernel_free_skb() rxrpc_kernel_data_consumed() unmodified as they're all about to be removed (and, in any case, don't touch the socket).

Condense the terminal states of a call state machine to a single state, plus a separate completion type value. The value is then set, along with error and abort code values, only when the call is transitioned to the completion state. Helpers are provided to simplify this.

Improve the management and caching of client rxrpc connection objects. From this point, client connections will be managed separately from service connections because AF_RXRPC controls the creation and re-use of client connections but doesn't have that luxury with service connections. Further, there will be limits on the numbers of client connections that may be live on a machine. No direct restriction will be placed on the number of client calls, excepting that each client connection can support a maximum of four concurrent calls. Note that, for a number of reasons, we don't want to simply discard a client connection as soon as the last call is apparently finished: (1) Security is negotiated per-connection and the context is then shared between all calls on that connection. The context can be negotiated again if the connection lapses, but that involves holding up calls whilst at least two packets are exchanged and various crypto bits are performed - so we'd ideally like to cache it for a little while at least. (2) If a packet goes astray, we will need to retransmit a final ACK or ABORT packet. To make this work, we need to keep around the connection details for a little while. (3) The locally held structures represent some amount of setup time, to be weighed against their occupation of memory when idle. To this end, the client connection cache is managed by a state machine on each connection. There are five states: (1) INACTIVE - The connection is not held in any list and may not have been exposed to the world. If it has been previously exposed, it was discarded from the idle list after expiring. (2) WAITING - The connection is waiting for the number of client conns to drop below the maximum capacity. Calls may be in progress upon it from when it was active and got culled. The connection is on the rxrpc_waiting_client_conns list which is kept in to-be-granted order. Culled conns with waiters go to the back of the queue just like new conns. (3) ACTIVE - The connection has at least one call in progress upon it, it may freely grant available channels to new calls and calls may be waiting on it for channels to become available. The connection is on the rxrpc_active_client_conns list which is kept in activation order for culling purposes. (4) CULLED - The connection got summarily culled to try and free up capacity. Calls currently in progress on the connection are allowed to continue, but new calls will have to wait. There can be no waiters in this state - the conn would have to go to the WAITING state instead. (5) IDLE - The connection has no calls in progress upon it and must have been exposed to the world (ie. the EXPOSED flag must be set). When it expires, the EXPOSED flag is cleared and the connection transitions to the INACTIVE state. The connection is on the rxrpc_idle_client_conns list which is kept in order of how soon they'll expire. A connection in the ACTIVE or CULLED state must have at least one active call upon it; if in the WAITING state it may have active calls upon it; other states may not have active calls. As long as a connection remains active and doesn't get culled, it may continue to process calls - even if there are connections on the wait queue. This simplifies things a bit and reduces the amount of checking we need do. There are a couple flags of relevance to the cache: (1) EXPOSED - The connection ID got exposed to the world. If this flag is set, an extra ref is added to the connection preventing it from being reaped when it has no calls outstanding. This flag is cleared and the ref dropped when a conn is discarded from the idle list. (2) DONT_REUSE - The connection should be discarded as soon as possible and should not be reused. This commit also provides a number of new settings: (*) /proc/net/rxrpc/max_client_conns The maximum number of live client connections. Above this number, new connections get added to the wait list and must wait for an active conn to be culled. Culled connections can be reused, but they will go to the back of the wait list and have to wait. (*) /proc/net/rxrpc/reap_client_conns If the number of desired connections exceeds the maximum above, the active connection list will be culled until there are only this many left in it. (*) /proc/net/rxrpc/idle_conn_expiry The normal expiry time for a client connection, provided there are fewer than reap_client_conns of them around. (*) /proc/net/rxrpc/idle_conn_fast_expiry The expedited expiry time, used when there are more than reap_client_conns of them around. Note that I combined the Tx wait queue with the channel grant wait queue to save space as only one of these should be in use at once. Note also that, for the moment, the service connection cache still uses the old connection management code. Signed-off-by: NDavid Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
