<content type='text'>
PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.

This promise never materialized.  And unlikely will.

We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to
PAGE_SIZE.  And it's constant source of confusion on whether
PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case,
especially on the border between fs and mm.

Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much
breakage to be doable.

Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special.  They are
not.

The changes are pretty straight-forward:

 - &lt;foo&gt; &lt;&lt; (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -&gt; &lt;foo&gt;;

 - &lt;foo&gt; &gt;&gt; (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -&gt; &lt;foo&gt;;

 - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -&gt; PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN};

 - page_cache_get() -&gt; get_page();

 - page_cache_release() -&gt; put_page();

This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using
script below.  For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files.
I've called spatch for them manually.

The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to
PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later.

There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach.  I'll
fix them manually in a separate patch.  Comments and documentation also
will be addressed with the separate patch.

Don't open-code sizeof_footer() in read_partial_message() and
ceph_msg_revoke().  Also, after switching to sizeof_footer(), it's now
possible to use con_out_kvec_add() in prepare_write_message_footer().

ceph_msg_footer is 21 bytes long, while ceph_msg_footer_old is only 13.
Don't skip too much when CEPH_FEATURE_MSG_AUTH isn't negotiated.

<content type='text'>
The contract between try_read() and try_write() is that when called
each processes as much data as possible.  When instructed by osd_client
to skip a message, try_read() is violating this contract by returning
after receiving and discarding a single message instead of checking for
more.  try_write() then gets a chance to write out more requests,
generating more replies/skips for try_read() to handle, forcing the
messenger into a starvation loop.

Commit 20e55c4cc758 ("libceph: clear messenger auth_retry flag when we
authenticate") got us only half way there.  We clear the flag if the
second attempt succeeds, but it also needs to be cleared if that
attempt fails, to allow for the exponential backoff to kick in.
Otherwise, if -&gt;should_authenticate() thinks our keys are valid, we
will busy loop, incrementing auth_retry to no avail:

    process_connect ffff880079a63830 got BADAUTHORIZER attempt 1
    process_connect ffff880079a63830 got BADAUTHORIZER attempt 2

<id>urn:sha1:67645d7619738e51c668ca69f097cb90b5470422</id>
<content type='text'>
There are a number of problems with revoking a "was sending" message:

(1) We never make any attempt to revoke data - only kvecs contibute to
con-&gt;out_skip.  However, once the header (envelope) is written to the
socket, our peer learns data_len and sets itself to expect at least
data_len bytes to follow front or front+middle.  If ceph_msg_revoke()
is called while the messenger is sending message's data portion,
anything we send after that call is counted by the OSD towards the now
revoked message's data portion.  The effects vary, the most common one
is the eventual hang - higher layers get stuck waiting for the reply to
the message that was sent out after ceph_msg_revoke() returned and
treated by the OSD as a bunch of data bytes.  This is what Matt ran
into.

(2) Flat out zeroing con-&gt;out_kvec_bytes worth of bytes to handle kvecs
is wrong.  If ceph_msg_revoke() is called before the tag is sent out or
while the messenger is sending the header, we will get a connection
reset, either due to a bad tag (0 is not a valid tag) or a bad header
CRC, which kind of defeats the purpose of revoke.  Currently the kernel
client refuses to work with header CRCs disabled, but that will likely
change in the future, making this even worse.

(3) con-&gt;out_skip is not reset on connection reset, leading to one or
more spurious connection resets if we happen to get a real one between
con-&gt;out_skip is set in ceph_msg_revoke() and before it's cleared in
write_partial_skip().

Fixing (1) and (3) is trivial.  The idea behind fixing (2) is to never
zero the tag or the header, i.e. send out tag+header regardless of when
ceph_msg_revoke() is called.  That way the header is always correct, no
unnecessary resets are induced and revoke stands ready for disabled
CRCs.  Since ceph_msg_revoke() rips out con-&gt;out_msg, introduce a new
"message out temp" and copy the header into it before sending.

<title>libceph: clear msg-&gt;con in ceph_msg_release() only</title>

<id>urn:sha1:583d0fef756a7615e50f0f68ea0892a497d03971</id>
<content type='text'>
The following bit in ceph_msg_revoke_incoming() is unsafe:

    struct ceph_connection *con = msg-&gt;con;
    if (!con)
            return;
    mutex_lock(&amp;con-&gt;mutex);
    &lt;more msg-&gt;con use&gt;

There is nothing preventing con from getting destroyed right after
msg-&gt;con test.  One easy way to reproduce this is to disable message
signing only on the server side and try to map an image.  The system
will go into a

    libceph: read_partial_message ffff880073f0ab68 signature check failed
    libceph: osd0 192.168.255.155:6801 bad crc/signature
    libceph: read_partial_message ffff880073f0ab68 signature check failed
    libceph: osd0 192.168.255.155:6801 bad crc/signature

loop which has to be interrupted with Ctrl-C.  Hit Ctrl-C and you are
likely to end up with a random GP fault if the reset handler executes
"within" ceph_msg_revoke_incoming():

                     &lt;yet another reply w/o a signature&gt;
                                   ...
          &lt;Ctrl-C&gt;
    rbd_obj_request_end
      ceph_osdc_cancel_request
        __unregister_request
          ceph_osdc_put_request
            ceph_msg_revoke_incoming
                                   ...
                                osd_reset
                                  __kick_osd_requests
                                    __reset_osd
                                      remove_osd
                                        ceph_con_close
                                          reset_connection
                                            &lt;clear con-&gt;in_msg-&gt;con&gt;
                                            &lt;put con ref&gt;
                                              put_osd
                                                &lt;free osd/con&gt;
              &lt;msg-&gt;con use&gt; &lt;-- !!!

If ceph_msg_revoke_incoming() executes "before" the reset handler,
osd/con will be leaked because ceph_msg_revoke_incoming() clears
con-&gt;in_msg but doesn't put con ref, while reset_connection() only puts
con ref if con-&gt;in_msg != NULL.

The current msg-&gt;con scheme was introduced by commits 38941f8031bf
("libceph: have messages point to their connection") and 92ce034b5a74
("libceph: have messages take a connection reference"), which defined
when messages get associated with a connection and when that
association goes away.  Part of the problem is that this association is
supposed to go away in much too many places; closing this race entirely
requires either a rework of the existing or an addition of a new layer
of synchronization.

In lieu of that, we can make it *much* less likely to hit by
disassociating messages only on their destruction and resend through
a different connection.  This makes the code simpler and is probably
a good thing to do regardless - this patch adds a msg_con_set() helper
which is is called from only three places: ceph_con_send() and
ceph_con_in_msg_alloc() to set msg-&gt;con and ceph_msg_release() to clear
it.
