<id>urn:sha1:57af281e5389b6fefedb3685f86847cbb0055f75</id>
<content type='text'>
Tidy up the abort generation infrastructure in the following ways:

 (1) Create an enum and string mapping table to list the reasons an abort
     might be generated in tracing.

 (2) Replace the 3-char string with the values from (1) in the places that
     use that to log the abort source.  This gets rid of a memcpy() in the
     tracepoint.

 (3) Subsume the rxrpc_rx_eproto tracepoint with the rxrpc_abort tracepoint
     and use values from (1) to indicate the trace reason.

 (4) Always make a call to an abort function at the point of the abort
     rather than stashing the values into variables and using goto to get
     to a place where it reported.  The C optimiser will collapse the calls
     together as appropriate.  The abort functions return a value that can
     be returned directly if appropriate.

Note that this extends into afs also at the points where that generates an
abort.  To aid with this, the afs sources need to #define
RXRPC_TRACE_ONLY_DEFINE_ENUMS before including the rxrpc tracing header
because they don't have access to the rxrpc internal structures that some
of the tracepoints make use of.

Clean up connection abort, using the connection state_lock to gate access
to change that state, and use an rxrpc_call_completion value to indicate
the difference between local and remote aborts as these can be pasted
directly into the call state.

<title>rxrpc: Don't use a ring buffer for call Tx queue</title>
<updated>2022-11-08T16:42:28+00:00</updated>

<id>urn:sha1:a4ea4c47761943d90cd5d1688b3c3c65922ff2b1</id>
<content type='text'>
Change the way the Tx queueing works to make the following ends easier to
achieve:

 (1) The filling of packets, the encryption of packets and the transmission
     of packets can be handled in parallel by separate threads, rather than
     rxrpc_sendmsg() allocating, filling, encrypting and transmitting each
     packet before moving onto the next one.

 (2) Get rid of the fixed-size ring which sets a hard limit on the number
     of packets that can be retained in the ring.  This allows the number
     of packets to increase without having to allocate a very large ring or
     having variable-sized rings.

     [Note: the downside of this is that it's then less efficient to locate
     a packet for retransmission as we then have to step through a list and
     examine each buffer in the list.]

 (3) Allow the filler/encrypter to run ahead of the transmission window.

 (4) Make it easier to do zero copy UDP from the packet buffers.

 (5) Make it easier to do zero copy from userspace to the packet buffers -
     and thence to UDP (only if for unauthenticated connections).

To that end, the following changes are made:

 (1) Use the new rxrpc_txbuf struct instead of sk_buff for keeping packets
     to be transmitted in.  This allows them to be placed on multiple
     queues simultaneously.  An sk_buff isn't really necessary as it's
     never passed on to lower-level networking code.

 (2) Keep the transmissable packets in a linked list on the call struct
     rather than in a ring.  As a consequence, the annotation buffer isn't
     used either; rather a flag is set on the packet to indicate ackedness.

 (3) Use the RXRPC_CALL_TX_LAST flag to indicate that the last packet to be
     transmitted has been queued.  Add RXRPC_CALL_TX_ALL_ACKED to indicate
     that all packets up to and including the last got hard acked.

 (4) Wire headers are now stored in the txbuf rather than being concocted
     on the stack and they're stored immediately before the data, thereby
     allowing zerocopy of a single span.

 (5) Don't bother with instant-resend on transmission failure; rather,
     leave it for a timer or an ACK packet to trigger.

<title>rxrpc: Clone received jumbo subpackets and queue separately</title>

<id>urn:sha1:d4d02d8bb5c412d977af7ea7c7ea91977a6a64dc</id>
<content type='text'>
Split up received jumbo packets into separate skbuffs by cloning the
original skbuff for each subpacket and setting the offset and length of the
data in that subpacket in the skbuff's private data.  The subpackets are
then placed on the recvmsg queue separately.  The security class then gets
to revise the offset and length to remove its metadata.

If we fail to clone a packet, we just drop it and let the peer resend it.
The original packet gets used for the final subpacket.

This should make it easier to handle parallel decryption of the subpackets.
It also simplifies the handling of lost or misordered packets in the
queuing/buffering loop as the possibility of overlapping jumbo packets no
longer needs to be considered.

Ask the security class how much header and trailer space to allow for when
allocating a packet, given how much data is remaining.

This will allow the rxgk security class to stick both a trailer in as well
as a header as appropriate in the future.

<title>rxrpc: Don't reserve security header in Tx DATA skbuff</title>

<content type='text'>
Insert the security header into the skbuff representing a DATA packet to be
transmitted rather than using skb_reserve() when the packet is allocated.
This makes it easier to apply crypto that spans the security header and the
data, particularly in the upcoming RxGK class where we have a common
encrypt-and-checksum function that is used in a number of circumstances.

<title>rxrpc: Support keys with multiple authentication tokens</title>

<content type='text'>
rxrpc-type keys can have multiple tokens attached for different security
classes.  Currently, rxrpc always picks the first one, whether or not the
security class it indicates is supported.

Add preliminary support for choosing which security class will be used
(this will need to be directed from a higher layer) and go through the
tokens to find one that's supported.

<title>rxrpc: Fix -Wframe-larger-than= warnings from on-stack crypto</title>

<id>urn:sha1:1db88c5343712e411a2dd45375f27c477e33dc07</id>
<content type='text'>
rxkad sometimes triggers a warning about oversized stack frames when
building with clang for a 32-bit architecture:

net/rxrpc/rxkad.c:243:12: error: stack frame size of 1088 bytes in function 'rxkad_secure_packet' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than=]
net/rxrpc/rxkad.c:501:12: error: stack frame size of 1088 bytes in function 'rxkad_verify_packet' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than=]

The problem is the combination of SYNC_SKCIPHER_REQUEST_ON_STACK() in
rxkad_verify_packet()/rxkad_secure_packet() with the relatively large
scatterlist in rxkad_verify_packet_1()/rxkad_secure_packet_encrypt().

The warning does not show up when using gcc, which does not inline the
functions as aggressively, but the problem is still the same.

Allocate the cipher buffers from the slab instead, caching the allocated
packet crypto request memory used for DATA packet crypto in the rxrpc_call
struct.
