<content type='text'>
Fix the decision on when to generate an IDLE ACK by keeping a count of the
number of packets we've received, but not yet soft-ACK'd, and the number of
packets we've processed, but not yet hard-ACK'd, rather than trying to keep
track of which DATA sequence numbers correspond to those points.

We then generate an ACK when either counter exceeds 2.  The counters are
both cleared when we transcribe the information into any sort of ACK packet
for transmission.  IDLE and DELAY ACKs are skipped if both counters are 0
(ie. no change).

<title>afs: Adjust ACK interpretation to try and cope with NAT</title>
<updated>2022-05-22T20:03:02+00:00</updated>

<name>David Howells</name>
<email>dhowells@redhat.com</email>
</author>
<published>2022-05-21T07:45:55+00:00</published>
<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.radix-linux.su/kernel/linux.git/commit/?id=adc9613ff66c26ebaff9814973181ac178beb90b'/>
<id>urn:sha1:adc9613ff66c26ebaff9814973181ac178beb90b</id>
<content type='text'>
If a client's address changes, say if it is NAT'd, this can disrupt an in
progress operation.  For most operations, this is not much of a problem,
but StoreData can be different as some servers modify the target file as
the data comes in, so if a store request is disrupted, the file can get
corrupted on the server.

The problem is that the server doesn't recognise packets that come after
the change of address as belonging to the original client and will bounce
them, either by sending an OUT_OF_SEQUENCE ACK to the apparent new call if
the packet number falls within the initial sequence number window of a call
or by sending an EXCEEDS_WINDOW ACK if it falls outside and then aborting
it.  In both cases, firstPacket will be 1 and previousPacket will be 0 in
the ACK information.

Fix this by the following means:

 (1) If a client call receives an EXCEEDS_WINDOW ACK with firstPacket as 1
     and previousPacket as 0, assume this indicates that the server saw the
     incoming packets from a different peer and thus as a different call.
     Fail the call with error -ENETRESET.

 (2) Also fail the call if a similar OUT_OF_SEQUENCE ACK occurs if the
     first packet has been hard-ACK'd.  If it hasn't been hard-ACK'd, the
     ACK packet will cause it to get retransmitted, so the call will just
     be repeated.

 (3) Make afs_select_fileserver() treat -ENETRESET as a straight fail of
     the operation.

 (4) Prioritise the error code over things like -ECONNRESET as the server
     did actually respond.

 (5) Make writeback treat -ENETRESET as a retryable error and make it
     redirty all the pages involved in a write so that the VM will retry.

Note that there is still a circumstance that I can't easily deal with: if
the operation is fully received and processed by the server, but the reply
is lost due to address change.  There's no way to know if the op happened.
We can examine the server, but a conflicting change could have been made by
a third party - and we can't tell the difference.  In such a case, a
message like:

    kAFS: vnode modified {100058:146266} b7-&gt;b8 YFS.StoreData64 (op=2646a)

will be logged to dmesg on the next op to touch the file and the client
will reset the inode state, including invalidating clean parts of the
pagecache.

<title>rxrpc: Call state should be read with READ_ONCE() under some circumstances</title>

<content type='text'>
The call state may be changed at any time by the data-ready routine in
response to received packets, so if the call state is to be read and acted
upon several times in a function, READ_ONCE() must be used unless the call
state lock is held.

As it happens, we used READ_ONCE() to read the state a few lines above the
unmarked read in rxrpc_input_data(), so use that value rather than
re-reading it.

<title>rxrpc: Fix loss of RTT samples due to interposed ACK</title>

<id>urn:sha1:4700c4d80b7bb171f6996016ef121e1508860b42</id>
<content type='text'>
The Rx protocol has a mechanism to help generate RTT samples that works by
a client transmitting a REQUESTED-type ACK when it receives a DATA packet
that has the REQUEST_ACK flag set.

The peer, however, may interpose other ACKs before transmitting the
REQUESTED-ACK, as can be seen in the following trace excerpt:

 rxrpc_tx_data: c=00000044 DATA d0b5ece8:00000001 00000001 q=00000001 fl=07
 rxrpc_rx_ack: c=00000044 00000001 PNG r=00000000 f=00000002 p=00000000 n=0
 rxrpc_rx_ack: c=00000044 00000002 REQ r=00000001 f=00000002 p=00000001 n=0
 ...

DATA packet 1 (q=xx) has REQUEST_ACK set (bit 1 of fl=xx).  The incoming
ping (labelled PNG) hard-acks the request DATA packet (f=xx exceeds the
sequence number of the DATA packet), causing it to be discarded from the Tx
ring.  The ACK that was requested (labelled REQ, r=xx references the serial
of the DATA packet) comes after the ping, but the sk_buff holding the
timestamp has gone and the RTT sample is lost.

This is particularly noticeable on RPC calls used to probe the service
offered by the peer.  A lot of peers end up with an unknown RTT because we
only ever sent a single RPC.  This confuses the server rotation algorithm.

Fix this by caching the information about the outgoing packet in RTT
calculations in the rxrpc_call struct rather than looking in the Tx ring.

A four-deep buffer is maintained and both REQUEST_ACK-flagged DATA and
PING-ACK transmissions are recorded in there.  When the appropriate
response ACK is received, the buffer is checked for a match and, if found,
an RTT sample is recorded.

If a received ACK refers to a packet with a later serial number than an
entry in the cache, that entry is presumed lost and the entry is made
available to record a new transmission.

ACKs types other than REQUESTED-type and PING-type cause any matching
sample to be cancelled as they don't necessarily represent a useful
measurement.

If there's no space in the buffer on ping/data transmission, the sample
base is discarded.
