We convert packet/message reception according to the same principle we have been using for message sending and timeout handling: We move the function tipc_rcv() to node.c, hence handling the initial packet reception at the link aggregation level. The function grabs the node lock, selects the receiving link, and accesses it via a new call tipc_link_rcv(). This function appends buffers to the input queue for delivery upwards, but it may also append outgoing packets to the xmit queue, just as we do during regular message sending. The latter will happen when buffers are forwarded from the link backlog, or when retransmission is requested. Upon return of this function, and after having released the node lock, tipc_rcv() delivers/tranmsits the contents of those queues, but it may also perform actions such as link activation or reset, as indicated by the return flags from the link. This reduces the number of cpu cycles spent inside the node spinlock, and reduces contention on that lock.

The logics for determining when a node is permitted to establish and maintain contact with its peer node becomes non-trivial in the presence of multiple parallel links that may come and go independently. A known failure scenario is that one endpoint registers both its links to the peer lost, cleans up it binding table, and prepares for a table update once contact is re-establihed, while the other endpoint may see its links reset and re-established one by one, hence seeing no need to re-synchronize the binding table. To avoid this, a node must not allow re-establishing contact until it has confirmation that even the peer has lost both links. Currently, the mechanism for handling this consists of setting and resetting two state flags from different locations in the code. This solution is hard to understand and maintain. A closer analysis even reveals that it is not completely safe. In this commit we do instead introduce an FSM that keeps track of the conditions for when the node can establish and maintain links. It has six states and four events, and is strictly based on explicit knowledge about the own node's and the peer node's contact states. Only events leading to state change are shown as edges in the figure below. +--------------+ | SELF_UP/ | +---------------->| PEER_COMING |-----------------+ SELF_ | +--------------+ |PEER_ ESTBL_ | | |ESTBL_ CONTACT| SELF_LOST_CONTACT | |CONTACT | v | | +--------------+ | | PEER_ | SELF_DOWN/ | SELF_ | | LOST_ +--| PEER_LEAVING |<--+ LOST_ v +-------------+ CONTACT | +--------------+ | CONTACT +-----------+ | SELF_DOWN/ |<----------+ +----------| SELF_UP/ | | PEER_DOWN |<----------+ +----------| PEER_UP | +-------------+ SELF_ | +--------------+ | PEER_ +-----------+ | LOST_ +--| SELF_LEAVING/|<--+ LOST_ A | CONTACT | PEER_DOWN | CONTACT | | +--------------+ | | A | PEER_ | PEER_LOST_CONTACT | |SELF_ ESTBL_ | | |ESTBL_ CONTACT| +--------------+ |CONTACT +---------------->| PEER_UP/ |-----------------+ | SELF_COMING | +--------------+ Reviewed-by: NYing Xue <ying.xue@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: NJon Maloy <jon.maloy@ericsson.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

In our effort to move control of the links to the link aggregation layer, we move the perodic link supervision timer to struct tipc_node. The new timer is shared between all links belonging to the node, thus saving resources, while still kicking the FSM on both its pertaining links at each expiration. The current link timer and corresponding functions are removed. Reviewed-by: NYing Xue <ying.xue@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: NJon Maloy <jon.maloy@ericsson.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

We create a second, simpler, link timer function, tipc_link_timeout(). The new function makes use of the new FSM function introduced in the previous commit, and just like it, takes a buffer queue as parameter. It returns an event bit field and potentially a link protocol packet to the caller. The existing timer function, link_timeout(), is still needed for a while, so we redesign it to become a wrapper around the new function.

The link FSM implementation is currently unnecessarily complex. It sometimes checks for conditional state outside the FSM data before deciding next state, and often performs actions directly inside the FSM logics. In this commit, we create a second, simpler FSM implementation, that as far as possible acts only on states and events that it is strictly defined for, and postpone any actions until it is finished with its decisions. It also returns an event flag field and an a buffer queue which may potentially contain a protocol message to be sent by the caller. Unfortunately, we cannot yet make the FSM "clean", in the sense that its decisions are only based on FSM state and event, and that state changes happen only here. That will have to wait until the activate/reset logics has been cleaned up in a future commit. We also rename the link states as follows: WORKING_WORKING -> TIPC_LINK_WORKING WORKING_UNKNOWN -> TIPC_LINK_PROBING RESET_UNKNOWN -> TIPC_LINK_RESETTING RESET_RESET -> TIPC_LINK_ESTABLISHING The existing FSM function, link_state_event(), is still needed for a while, so we redesign it to make use of the new function.

The status flag LINK_STOPPED is not needed any more, since the mechanism for delayed deletion of links has been removed. Likewise, LINK_STARTED and LINK_START_EVT are unnecessary, because we can just as well start the link timer directly from inside tipc_link_create(). We eliminate these flags in this commit. Instead of the above flags, we now introduce three new link modes, TIPC_LINK_OPEN, TIPC_LINK_BLOCKED and TIPC_LINK_TUNNEL. The values indicate whether, and in the case of TIPC_LINK_TUNNEL, which, messages the link is allowed to receive in this state. TIPC_LINK_BLOCKED also blocks timer-driven protocol messages to be sent out, and any change to the link FSM. Since the modes are mutually exclusive, we convert them to state values, and rename the 'flags' field in struct tipc_link to 'exec_mode'. Finally, we move the #defines for link FSM states and events from link.h into enums inside the file link.c, which is the real usage scope of these definitions.

Currently, message sending is performed through a deep call chain, where the node spinlock is grabbed and held during a significant part of the transmission time. This is clearly detrimental to overall throughput performance; it would be better if we could send the message after the spinlock has been released. In this commit, we do instead let the call revert on the stack after the buffer chain has been added to the transmission queue, whereafter clones of the buffers are transmitted to the device layer outside the spinlock scope. As a further step in our effort to separate the roles of the node and link entities we also move the function tipc_link_xmit() to node.c, and rename it to tipc_node_xmit().

When the function tipc_link_xmit() is given a buffer list for transmission, it currently consumes the list both when transmission is successful and when it fails, except for the special case when it encounters link congestion. This behavior is inconsistent, and needs to be corrected if we want to avoid problems in later commits in this series. In this commit, we change this to let the function consume the list only when transmission is successful, and leave the list with the sender in all other cases. We also modifiy the socket code so that it adapts to this change, i.e., purges the list when a non-congestion error code is returned.

At present, the link input queue and the name distributor receive queues are fields aggregated in struct tipc_link. This is a hazard, because a link might be deleted while a receiving socket still keeps reference to one of the queues. This commit fixes this bug. However, rather than adding yet another reference counter to the critical data path, we move the two queues to safe ground inside struct tipc_node, which is already protected, and let the link code only handle references to the queues. This is also in line with planned later changes in this area. Reviewed-by: NYing Xue <ying.xue@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: NJon Maloy <jon.maloy@ericsson.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

We now group those into a new struct 'tipc_link_entry', and intoduce one single array consisting of such enties.

In commit 1f66d161 ("tipc: introduce starvation free send algorithm") we introduced a counter per priority level for buffers in the link backlog queue. We also introduced a new function tipc_link_purge_backlog(), to reset these counters to zero when the link is reset. Unfortunately, we missed to call this function when the broadcast link is reset, with the result that the values of these counters might be permanently skewed when new nodes are attached. This may in the worst case lead to permananent, but spurious, broadcast link congestion, where no broadcast packets can be sent at all. We fix this bug with this commit.

In commit dd3f9e70 ("tipc: add packet sequence number at instant of transmission") we made a change with the consequence that packets in the link backlog queue don't contain valid sequence numbers. However, when we create a link protocol message, we still use the sequence number of the first packet in the backlog, if there is any, as "next_sent" indicator in the message. This may entail unnecessary retransissions or stale packet transmission when there is very low traffic on the link.

Currently, the packet sequence number is updated and added to each packet at the moment a packet is added to the link backlog queue. This is wasteful, since it forces the code to traverse the send packet list packet by packet when adding them to the backlog queue. It would be better to just splice the whole packet list into the backlog queue when that is the right action to do. In this commit, we do this change. Also, since the sequence numbers cannot now be assigned to the packets at the moment they are added the backlog queue, we do instead calculate and add them at the moment of transmission, when the backlog queue has to be traversed anyway. We do this in the function tipc_link_push_packet().

The link congestion algorithm used until now implies two problems. - It is too generous towards lower-level messages in situations of high load by giving "absolute" bandwidth guarantees to the different priority levels. LOW traffic is guaranteed 10%, MEDIUM is guaranted 20%, HIGH is guaranteed 30%, and CRITICAL is guaranteed 40% of the available bandwidth. But, in the absence of higher level traffic, the ratio between two distinct levels becomes unreasonable. E.g. if there is only LOW and MEDIUM traffic on a system, the former is guaranteed 1/3 of the bandwidth, and the latter 2/3. This again means that if there is e.g. one LOW user and 10 MEDIUM users, the former will have 33.3% of the bandwidth, and the others will have to compete for the remainder, i.e. each will end up with 6.7% of the capacity. - Packets of type MSG_BUNDLER are created at SYSTEM importance level, but only after the packets bundled into it have passed the congestion test for their own respective levels. Since bundled packets don't result in incrementing the level counter for their own importance, only occasionally for the SYSTEM level counter, they do in practice obtain SYSTEM level importance. Hence, the current implementation provides a gap in the congestion algorithm that in the worst case may lead to a link reset. We now refine the congestion algorithm as follows: - A message is accepted to the link backlog only if its own level counter, and all superior level counters, permit it. - The importance of a created bundle packet is set according to its contents. A bundle packet created from messges at levels LOW to CRITICAL is given importance level CRITICAL, while a bundle created from a SYSTEM level message is given importance SYSTEM. In the latter case only subsequent SYSTEM level messages are allowed to be bundled into it. This solves the first problem described above, by making the bandwidth guarantee relative to the total number of users at all levels; only the upper limit for each level remains absolute. In the example described above, the single LOW user would use 1/11th of the bandwidth, the same as each of the ten MEDIUM users, but he still has the same guarantee against starvation as the latter ones. The fix also solves the second problem. If the CRITICAL level is filled up by bundle packets of that level, no lower level packets will be accepted any more.

We change the sequence number checkpointing that is performed by the timer in order to discover if the peer is active. Currently, we store a checkpoint of the next expected sequence number "rcv_nxt" at each timer expiration, and compare it to the current expected number at next timeout expiration. Instead, we now use the already existing field "silent_intv_cnt" for this task. We step the counter at each timeout expiration, and zero it at each valid received packet. If no valid packet has been received from the peer after "abort_limit" number of silent timer intervals, the link is declared faulty and reset. We also remove the multiple instances of timer activation from inside the FSM function "link_state_event()", and now do it at only one place; at the end of the timer function itself.

Although the sequence number in the TIPC protocol is 16 bits, we have until now stored it internally as an unsigned 32 bits integer. We got around this by always doing explicit modulo-65535 operations whenever we need to access a sequence number. We now make the incoming and outgoing sequence numbers to unsigned 16-bit integers, and remove the modulo operations where applicable. We also move the arithmetic inline functions for 16 bit integers to core.h, and the function buf_seqno() to msg.h, so they can easily be accessed from anywhere in the code.

Prior to this commit, the link timer has been running at a "continuity interval" of configured link tolerance/4. When a timer wakes up and discovers that there has been no sign of life from the peer during the previous interval, it divides its own timer interval by another factor four, and starts sending one probe per new interval. When the configured link tolerance time has passed without answer, i.e. after 16 unacked probes, the link is declared faulty and reset. This is unnecessary complex. It is sufficient to continue with the original continuity interval, and instead reset the link after four missed probe responses. This makes the timer handling in the link simpler, and opens up for some planned later changes in this area. This commit implements this change.

Currently, we try to accumulate arrived packets in the links's 'deferred' queue during the parallel link syncronization phase. This entails two problems: - With an unlucky combination of arriving packets the algorithm may go into a lockstep with the out-of-sequence handling function, where the synch mechanism is adding a packet to the deferred queue, while the out-of-sequence handling is retrieving it again, thus ending up in a loop inside the node_lock scope. - Even if this is avoided, the link will very often send out unnecessary protocol messages, in the worst case leading to redundant retransmissions. We fix this by just dropping arriving packets on the upcoming link during the synchronization phase, thus relying on the retransmission protocol to resolve the situation once the two links have arrived to a synchronized state.

When a link is being established, the two endpoints advertise their respective interface MTU in the transmitted RESET and ACTIVATE messages. If there is any difference, the lower of the two MTUs will be selected for use by both endpoints. However, as a remnant of earlier attempts to introduce TIPC level routing. there also exists an MTU discovery mechanism. If an intermediate node has a lower MTU than the two endpoints, they will discover this through a bisectional approach, and finally adopt this MTU for common use. Since there is no TIPC level routing, and probably never will be, this mechanism doesn't make any sense, and only serves to make the link level protocol unecessarily complex. In this commit, we eliminate the MTU discovery algorithm,and fall back to the simple MTU advertising approach. This change is fully backwards compatible.

When a bearer is disabled manually, all its links have to be reset and deleted. However, if there is a remaining, parallel link ready to take over a deleted link's traffic, we currently delay the delete of the removed link until the failover procedure is finished. This is because the remaining link needs to access state from the reset link, such as the last received packet number, and any partially reassembled buffer, in order to perform a successful failover. In this commit, we do instead move the state data over to the new link, so that it can fulfill the procedure autonomously, without accessing any data on the old link.

In commit 8b4ed863 ("tipc: eliminate race condition at dual link establishment") we introduced a parallel link synchronization mechanism that guarentees sequential delivery even for users switching from an old to a newly established link. The new mechanism makes it unnecessary to deliver the tunneled duplicate packets back to the old link, as we are currently doing. It is now sufficient to use the last tunneled packet's inner sequence number as synchronization point between the two parallel links, whereafter it can be dropped. In this commit, we drop the duplicate packets arriving on the new link, after updating the synchronization point at each new arrival. Although it would now have been sufficient for the other endpoint to only tunnel the last packet in its send queue, and not the entire queue, we must still do this to maintain compatibility with older nodes. This commit makes it possible to get rid if some complex interaction between the two parallel links.

TIPC node hash node table is protected with rcu lock on read side. tipc_node_find() is used to look for a node object with node address through iterating the hash node table. As the entire process of what tipc_node_find() traverses the table is guarded with rcu read lock, it's safe for us. However, when callers use the node object returned by tipc_node_find(), there is no rcu read lock applied. Therefore, this is absolutely unsafe for callers of tipc_node_find(). Now we introduce a reference counter for node structure. Before tipc_node_find() returns node object to its caller, it first increases the reference counter. Accordingly, after its caller used it up, it decreases the counter again. This can prevent a node being used by one thread from being freed by another thread.

But especially when the retransmission of broadcast link is failed, bclink->lock is first held in tipc_bclink_rcv(), and n_ptr->lock is taken in link_retransmit_failure() called by tipc_link_retransmit() subsequently, which is demonstrated on CPU0. As a result, deadlock occurs. If the order of holding the two locks happening on CPU0 is reversed, the deadlock risk will be relieved. Therefore, the node lock taken in link_retransmit_failure() originally is moved to tipc_bclink_rcv() so that it's obtained before bclink lock. But the precondition of the adjustment of node lock is that responding to bclink reset event must be moved from tipc_bclink_unlock() to tipc_node_unlock().

Despite recent improvements, the establishment of dual parallel links still has a small glitch where messages can bypass each other. When the second link in a dual-link configuration is established, part of the first link's traffic will be steered over to the new link. Although we do have a mechanism to ensure that packets sent before and after the establishment of the new link arrive in sequence to the destination node, this is not enough. The arriving messages will still be delivered upwards in different threads, something entailing a risk of message disordering during the transition phase. To fix this, we introduce a synchronization mechanism between the two parallel links, so that traffic arriving on the new link cannot be added to its input queue until we are guaranteed that all pre-establishment messages have been delivered on the old, parallel link. This problem seems to always have been around, but its occurrence is so rare that it has not been noticed until recent intensive testing.

After the recent changes in message importance handling it becomes possible to simplify handling of messages and sockets when we encounter link congestion. We merge the function tipc_link_cong() into link_schedule_user(), and simplify the code of the latter. The code should now be easier to follow, especially regarding return codes and handling of the message that caused the situation. In case the scheduling function is unable to pre-allocate a wakeup message buffer, it now returns -ENOBUFS, which is a more correct code than the previously used -EHOSTUNREACH.

Currently, we only use a single counter; the length of the backlog queue, to determine whether a message should be accepted to the queue or not. Each time a message is being sent, the queue length is compared to a threshold value for the message's importance priority. If the queue length is beyond this threshold, the message is rejected. This algorithm implies a risk of starvation of low importance senders during very high load, because it may take a long time before the backlog queue has decreased enough to accept a lower level message. We now eliminate this risk by introducing a counter for each importance priority. When a message is sent, we check only the queue level for that particular message's priority. If that is ok, the message can be added to the backlog, irrespective of the queue level for other priorities. This way, each level is guaranteed a certain portion of the total bandwidth, and any risk of starvation is eliminated.

Since commit 1186adf7 ("tipc: simplify message forwarding and rejection in socket layer") -EHOSTUNREACH is propagated back to the sending process if we fail to deliver the message to another socket local to the node. This is wrong, host unreachable should only be reported when the destination port/name does not exist in the cluster, and that check is always done before sending the message. Also, this introduces inconsistent sendmsg() behavior for local/remote destinations. Errors occurring on the receiving side should not trickle up to the sender. If message delivery fails TIPC should either discard the packet or reject it back to the sender based on the destination droppable option.

Messages transferred by TIPC are assigned an "importance priority", -an integer value indicating how to treat the message when there is link or destination socket congestion. There is no separate header field for this value. Instead, the message user values have been chosen in ascending order according to perceived importance, so that the message user field can be used for this. This is not a good solution. First, we have many more users than the needed priority levels, so we end up with treating more priority levels than necessary. Second, the user field cannot always accurately reflect the priority of the message. E.g., a message fragment packet should really have the priority of the enveloped user data message, and not the priority of the MSG_FRAGMENTER user. Until now, we have been working around this problem in different ways, but it is now time to implement a consistent way of handling such priorities, although still within the constraint that we cannot allocate any more bits in the regular data message header for this. In this commit, we define a new priority level, TIPC_SYSTEM_IMPORTANCE, that will be the only one used apart from the four (lower) user data levels. All non-data messages map down to this priority. Furthermore, we take some free bits from the MSG_FRAGMENTER header and allocate them to store the priority of the enveloped message. We then adjust the functions msg_importance()/msg_set_importance() so that they read/set the correct header fields depending on user type. This small protocol change is fully compatible, because the code at the receiving end of a link currently reads the importance level only from user data messages, where there is no change.

struct tipc_link contains one single queue for outgoing packets, where both transmitted and waiting packets are queued. This infrastructure is hard to maintain, because we need to keep a number of fields to keep track of which packets are sent or unsent, and the number of packets in each category. A lot of code becomes simpler if we split this queue into a transmission queue, where sent/unacknowledged packets are kept, and a backlog queue, where we keep the not yet sent packets. In this commit we do this separation.

The unicast packet header contains a broadcast acknowledge sequence number, that may need to be conveyed to the broadcast link for proper treatment. Currently, the function tipc_rcv(), which is on the most critical data path, calls the function tipc_bclink_acknowledge() to have this done. This call is made for each received packet, and results in the unconditional grabbing of the broadcast link spinlock. This is unnecessary, since we can see directly from tipc_rcv() if the acknowledged number differs from what has been previously acked from the node in question. In the vast majority of cases the numbers won't differ, and there is nothing to update. We now make the call to tipc_bclink_acknowledge() conditional to that the two ack values differ.

In this commit, we eliminate this unnecessary linearization. We still ensure that at least the message header is linear, and that the buffer is linearized where this is still needed, i.e. when unbundling and when reversing messages. In addition, we ensure that fragmented messages are validated after reassembly before delivering them upwards in the stack.

commit afaa3f65 (tipc: purge links when bearer is disabled) was an attempt to resolve a problem that turned out to have a more profound reason. When we disable a bearer, we delete all its pertaining links if there is no other bearer to perform failover to, or if the module is shutting down. In case there are dual bearers, we wait with deleting links until the failover procedure is finished. However, this misses the case when a link on the removed bearer was already down, so that there will be no failover procedure to finish the link delete. This causes confusion if a new bearer is added to replace the removed one, and also entails a small memory leak. This commit takes the current state of the link into account when deciding when to delete it, and also reverses the above-mentioned commit.
