TIPC handles message cardinality and sequencing at the link layer, before passing messages upwards to the destination sockets. During the upcall from link to socket no locks are held. It is therefore possible, and we see it happen occasionally, that messages arriving in different threads and delivered in sequence still bypass each other before they reach the destination socket. This must not happen, since it violates the sequentiality guarantee. We solve this by adding a new input buffer queue to the link structure. Arriving messages are added safely to the tail of that queue by the link, while the head of the queue is consumed, also safely, by the receiving socket. Sequentiality is secured per socket by only allowing buffers to be dequeued inside the socket lock. Since there may be multiple simultaneous readers of the queue, we use a 'filter' parameter to reduce the risk that they peek the same buffer from the queue, hence also reducing the risk of contention on the receiving socket locks. This solves the sequentiality problem, and seems to cause no measurable performance degradation. A nice side effect of this change is that lock handling in the functions tipc_rcv() and tipc_bcast_rcv() now becomes uniform, something that will enable future simplifications of those functions.

The most common usage of namespace information is when we fetch the own node addess from the net structure. This leads to a lot of passing around of a parameter of type 'struct net *' between functions just to make them able to obtain this address. However, in many cases this is unnecessary. The own node address is readily available as a member of both struct tipc_sock and tipc_link, and can be fetched from there instead. The fact that the vast majority of functions in socket.c and link.c anyway are maintaining a pointer to their respective base structures makes this option even more compelling. In this commit, we introduce the inline functions tsk_own_node() and link_own_node() to make it easy for functions to fetch the node address from those structs instead of having to pass along and dereference the namespace struct. In particular, we make calls to the msg_xx() functions in msg.{h,c} context independent by directly passing them the own node address as parameter when needed. Those functions should be regarded as leaves in the code dependency tree, and it is hence desirable to keep them namspace unaware. Apart from a potential positive effect on cache behavior, these changes make it easier to introduce the changes that will follow later in this series.

If net namespace is supported in tipc, each namespace will be treated as a separate tipc node. Therefore, every namespace must own its private tipc node address. This means the "tipc_own_addr" global variable of node address must be moved to tipc_net structure to satisfy the requirement. It's turned out that users also can assign node address for every namespace.

Bearer list defined as a global variable is used to store bearer instances. When tipc supports net namespace, bearers created in one namespace must be isolated with others allocated in other namespaces, which requires us that the bearer list(bearer_list) must be moved to tipc_net structure.

Global variables associated with node table are below: - node table list (node_htable) - node hash table list (tipc_node_list) - node table lock (node_list_lock) - node number counter (tipc_num_nodes) - node link number counter (tipc_num_links) To make node table support namespace, above global variables must be moved to tipc_net structure in order to keep secret for different namespaces. As a consequence, these variables are allocated and initialized when namespace is created, and deallocated when namespace is destroyed. After the change, functions associated with these variables have to utilize a namespace pointer to access them. So adding namespace pointer as a parameter of these functions is the major change made in the commit.

In commit 58dc55f2 ("tipc: use generic SKB list APIs to manage link transmission queue") we replace all list traversal loops with the macros skb_queue_walk() or skb_queue_walk_safe(). While the previous loops were based on the assumption that the list was NULL-terminated, the standard macros stop when the iterator reaches the list head, which is non-NULL. In the function bclink_retransmit_pkt() this macro replacement has lead to a bug. When we receive a BCAST STATE_MSG we unconditionally call the function bclink_retransmit_pkt(), whether there really is anything to retransmit or not, assuming that the sequence number comparisons will lead to the correct behavior. However, if the transmission queue is empty, or if there are no eligible buffers in the transmission queue, we will by mistake pass the list head pointer to the function tipc_link_retransmit(). Since the list head is not a valid sk_buff, this leads to a crash. In this commit we fix this by only calling tipc_link_retransmit() if we actually found eligible buffers in the transmission queue.

Add TIPC_NL_LINK_GET command to the new tipc netlink API. This command supports dumping all information about all links (including the broadcast link) or getting all information about a specific link (not the broadcast link). The information about a link includes name, transmission info, properties and link statistics. As the tipc broadcast link is special we unfortunately have to treat it specially. It is a deliberate decision not to abstract the broadcast link on this (API) level.

One aim of commit 50100a5e ("tipc: use pseudo message to wake up sockets after link congestion") was to handle link congestion abatement in a uniform way for both unicast and multicast transmit. However, the latter doesn't work correctly, and has been broken since the referenced commit was applied. If a user now sends a burst of multicast messages that is big enough to cause broadcast link congestion, it will be put to sleep, and not be waked up when the congestion abates as it should be. This has two reasons. First, the flag that is used, TIPC_WAKEUP_USERS, is set correctly, but in the wrong field. Instead of setting it in the 'action_flags' field of the arrival node struct, it is by mistake set in the dummy node struct that is owned by the broadcast link, where it will never tested for. Second, we cannot use the same flag for waking up unicast and multicast users, since the function tipc_node_unlock() needs to pick the wakeup pseudo messages to deliver from different queues. It must hence be able to distinguish between the two cases. This commit solves this problem by adding a new flag TIPC_WAKEUP_BCAST_USERS, and a new function tipc_bclink_wakeup_user(). The latter is to be called by tipc_node_unlock() when the named flag, now set in the correct field, is encountered. v2: using explicit 'unsigned int' declaration instead of 'uint', as per comment from David Miller.

The current link implementation keeps a linked list of blocked ports/ sockets that is populated when there is link congestion. The purpose of this is to let the link know which users to wake up when the congestion abates. This adds unnecessary complexity to the data structure and the code, since it forces us to involve the link each time we want to delete a socket. It also forces us to grab the spinlock port_lock within the scope of node_lock. We want to get rid of this direct dependence, as well as the deadlock hazard resulting from the usage of port_lock. In this commit, we instead let the link keep list of a "wakeup" pseudo messages for use in such situations. Those messages are sent to the pending sockets via the ordinary message reception path, and wake up the socket's owner when they are received. This enables us to get rid of the 'waiting_ports' linked lists in struct tipc_port that manifest this direct reference. As a consequence, we can eliminate another BH entry into the socket, and hence the need to grab port_lock. This is a further step in our effort to remove port_lock altogether.

When we run broadcast packets over dual bearers/interfaces, the current transmission code is flipping bearers between each sent packet, with the purpose of leveraging the double bandwidth available. The receiving bclink is resequencing the packets if needed, so all messages are delivered upwards from the broadcast link in the correct order, even if they may arrive in concurrent interrupts. However, at the moment of delivery upwards to the socket, we release all spinlocks (bclink_lock, node_lock), so it is still possible that arriving messages bypass each other before they reach the socket queue. We fix this by applying the same technique we are using for unicast traffic. We use a link selector (i.e., the last bit of sending port number) to ensure that messages from the same sender socket always are sent over the same bearer. This guarantees sequential delivery between socket pairs, which is sufficient to satisfy the protocol spec, as well as all known user requirements.

This commit corrects this, and thereby fixes a bug that may occur when long broadcast messages are transmitted across dual interfaces.

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.

So we decide to enlarge bearer_list array into MAX_BEARERS + 1 slots, and its last slot stores the broadcast bearer so that the broadcast bearer can be found from bearer_list array with MAX_BEARERS as index. The change will help us reduce the complex relationship between bearer and link in the future.

After the allocation of tipc_bearer structure instance is converted from statical way to dynamical way, we identify whether a certain tipc_bearer structure pointer is valid by checking whether the pointer is NULL or not. So the active flag in tipc_bearer structure becomes redundant.

As part of the effort to introduce RCU protection for the bearer list, we first need to change it to a list of pointers.

After the earlier commits ("tipc: remove 'links' list from tipc_bearer struct") and ("tipc: introduce new spinlock to protect struct link_req"), there is no longer any need to protect struct link_req or or any link list by use of bearer_lock. Furthermore, we have eliminated the need for using bearer_lock during downcalls (send) from the link to the bearer, since we have ensured that bearers always have a longer life cycle that their associated links, and always contain valid data. So, the only need now for a lock protecting bearers is for guaranteeing consistency of the bearer list itself. For this, it is sufficient, at least for the time being, to continue applying 'net_lock´ in write mode. By removing bearer_lock we also pre-empt introduction of issue b) descibed in the previous commit "tipc: remove 'links' list from tipc_bearer struct": "b) When the outer protection from net_lock is gone, taking bearer_lock and node_lock in opposite order of method 1) and 2) will become an obvious deadlock hazard". Therefore, we now eliminate the bearer_lock spinlock.

The function tipc_link_recv_fragment(struct sk_buff **buf) currently leaves the value of the input buffer pointer undefined when it returns, except when the return code indicates that the reassembly is complete. This despite the fact that it always consumes the input buffer. Here, we enforce a stricter behavior by this function, ensuring that the returned buffer pointer is non-NULL if and only if the reassembly is complete. This makes it possible to test for the buffer pointer as criteria for successful reassembly. We also rename the function to tipc_link_frag_rcv(), which is both shorter and more in line with common naming practice in the network subsystem. Apart from the new name, these changes have no impact on current users of the function, but makes it more practical for use in some planned future commits.
