2017-06-05rxrpc: Add service upgrade support for client connectionsDavid Howells1-0/+4
Make it possible for a client to use AuriStor's service upgrade facility. The client does this by adding an RXRPC_UPGRADE_SERVICE control message to the first sendmsg() of a call. This takes no parameters. When recvmsg() starts returning data from the call, the service ID field in the returned msg_name will reflect the result of the upgrade attempt. If the upgrade was ignored, srx_service will match what was set in the sendmsg(); if the upgrade happened the srx_service will be altered to indicate the service the server upgraded to. Note that: (1) The choice of upgrade service is up to the server (2) Further client calls to the same server that would share a connection are blocked if an upgrade probe is in progress. (3) This should only be used to probe the service. Clients should then use the returned service ID in all subsequent communications with that server (and not set the upgrade). Note that the kernel will not retain this information should the connection expire from its cache. (4) If a server that supports upgrading is replaced by one that doesn't, whilst a connection is live, and if the replacement is running, say, OpenAFS 1.6.4 or older or an older IBM AFS, then the replacement server will not respond to packets sent to the upgraded connection. At this point, calls will time out and the server must be reprobed. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
2016-10-06rxrpc: Don't request an ACK on the last DATA packet of a call's Tx phaseDavid Howells1-5/+6
Don't request an ACK on the last DATA packet of a call's Tx phase as for a client there will be a reply packet or some sort of ACK to shift phase. If the ACK is requested, OpenAFS sends a REQUESTED-ACK ACK with soft-ACKs in it and doesn't follow up with a hard-ACK. If we don't set the flag, OpenAFS will send a DELAY ACK that hard-ACKs the reply data, thereby allowing the call to terminate cleanly. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
2016-10-06rxrpc: Fix loss of PING RESPONSE ACK production due to PING ACKsDavid Howells1-16/+22
Separate the output of PING ACKs from the output of other sorts of ACK so that if we receive a PING ACK and schedule transmission of a PING RESPONSE ACK, the response doesn't get cancelled by a PING ACK we happen to be scheduling transmission of at the same time. If a PING RESPONSE gets lost, the other side might just sit there waiting for it and refuse to proceed otherwise. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
2016-10-06rxrpc: Fix warning by splitting rxrpc_send_call_packet()David Howells1-69/+87
Split rxrpc_send_data_packet() to separate ACK generation (which is more complicated) from ABORT generation. This simplifies the code a bit and fixes the following warning: In file included from ../net/rxrpc/output.c:20:0: net/rxrpc/output.c: In function 'rxrpc_send_call_packet': net/rxrpc/ar-internal.h:1187:27: error: 'top' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] net/rxrpc/output.c:103:24: note: 'top' was declared here net/rxrpc/output.c:225:25: error: 'hard_ack' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] Reported-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
2016-09-30rxrpc: Request more ACKs in slow-start modeDavid Howells1-0/+1
Set the request-ACK on more DATA packets whilst we're in slow start mode so that we get sufficient ACKs back to supply information to configure the window. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
2016-09-30rxrpc: Make Tx loss-injection go through normal return and adjust tracingDavid Howells1-8/+9
In rxrpc_send_data_packet() make the loss-injection path return through the same code as the transmission path so that the RTT determination is initiated and any future timer shuffling will be done, despite the packet having been binned. Whilst we're at it: (1) Add to the tx_data tracepoint an indication of whether or not we're retransmitting a data packet. (2) When we're deciding whether or not to request an ACK, rather than checking if we're in fast-retransmit mode check instead if we're retransmitting. (3) Don't invoke the lose_skb tracepoint when losing a Tx packet as we're not altering the sk_buff refcount nor are we just seeing it after getting it off the Tx list. (4) The rxrpc_skb_tx_lost note is then no longer used so remove it. (5) rxrpc_lose_skb() no longer needs to deal with rxrpc_skb_tx_lost. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
2016-09-25rxrpc: Implement slow-startDavid Howells1-2/+7
Implement RxRPC slow-start, which is similar to RFC 5681 for TCP. A tracepoint is added to log the state of the congestion management algorithm and the decisions it makes. Notes: (1) Since we send fixed-size DATA packets (apart from the final packet in each phase), counters and calculations are in terms of packets rather than bytes. (2) The ACK packet carries the equivalent of TCP SACK. (3) The FLIGHT_SIZE calculation in RFC 5681 doesn't seem particularly suited to SACK of a small number of packets. It seems that, almost inevitably, by the time three 'duplicate' ACKs have been seen, we have narrowed the loss down to one or two missing packets, and the FLIGHT_SIZE calculation ends up as 2. (4) In rxrpc_resend(), if there was no data that apparently needed retransmission, we transmit a PING ACK to ask the peer to tell us what its Rx window state is.

2016-09-24rxrpc: Send an ACK after every few DATA packets we receiveDavid Howells1-8/+17
Send an ACK if we haven't sent one for the last two packets we've received. This keeps the other end apprised of where we've got to - which is important if they're doing slow-start. We do this in recvmsg so that we can dispatch a packet directly without the need to wake up the background thread. This should possibly be made configurable in future. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
2016-09-23rxrpc: Add tracepoint for ACK proposalDavid Howells1-1/+2
Add a tracepoint to log proposed ACKs, including whether the proposal is used to update a pending ACK or is discarded in favour of an easlier, higher priority ACK. Whilst we're at it, get rid of the rxrpc_acks() function and access the name array directly. We do, however, need to validate the ACK reason number given to trace_rxrpc_rx_ack() to make sure we don't overrun the array. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
2016-09-23rxrpc: Add data Tx tracepoint and adjust Tx ACK tracepointDavid Howells1-1/+4
Add a tracepoint to log transmission of DATA packets (including loss injection). Adjust the ACK transmission tracepoint to include the packet serial number and to line this up with the DATA transmission display. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
2016-09-23rxrpc: Don't call the tx_ack tracepoint if don't generate an ACKDavid Howells1-15/+11
rxrpc_send_call_packet() is invoking the tx_ack tracepoint before it checks whether there's an ACK to transmit (another thread may jump in and transmit it). Fix this by only invoking the tracepoint if we get a valid ACK to transmit. Further, only allocate a serial number if we're going to actually transmit something. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
2016-09-22rxrpc: Reduce the number of ACK-Requests sentDavid Howells1-2/+11
Reduce the number of ACK-Requests we set on DATA packets that we're sending to reduce network traffic. We set the flag on odd-numbered DATA packets to start off the RTT cache until we have at least three entries in it and then probe once per second thereafter to keep it topped up. This could be made tunable in future. Note that from this point, the RXRPC_REQUEST_ACK flag is set on DATA packets as we transmit them and not stored statically in the sk_buff. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
2016-09-22rxrpc: Obtain RTT data by requesting ACKs on DATA packetsDavid Howells1-2/+5
In addition to sending a PING ACK to gain RTT data, we can set the RXRPC_REQUEST_ACK flag on a DATA packet and get a REQUESTED-ACK ACK. The ACK packet contains the serial number of the packet it is in response to, so we can look through the Tx buffer for a matching DATA packet. This requires that the data packets be stamped with the time of transmission as a ktime rather than having the resend_at time in jiffies. This further requires the resend code to do the resend determination in ktimes and convert to jiffies to set the timer. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
2016-09-22rxrpc: Send pings to get RTT dataDavid Howells1-0/+22
Send a PING ACK packet to the peer when we get a new incoming call from a peer we don't have a record for. The PING RESPONSE ACK packet will tell us the following about the peer: (1) its receive window size (2) its MTU sizes (3) its support for jumbo DATA packets (4) if it supports slow start (similar to RFC 5681) (5) an estimate of the RTT This is necessary because the peer won't normally send us an ACK until it gets to the Rx phase and we send it a packet, but we would like to know some of this information before we start sending packets. A pair of tracepoints are added so that RTT determination can be observed. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
2016-09-22rxrpc: Don't store the rxrpc header in the Tx queue sk_buffsDavid Howells1-27/+56
Don't store the rxrpc protocol header in sk_buffs on the transmit queue, but rather generate it on the fly and pass it to kernel_sendmsg() as a separate iov. This reduces the amount of storage required. Note that the security header is still stored in the sk_buff as it may get encrypted along with the data (and doesn't change with each transmission).

2016-09-17rxrpc: Add config to inject packet lossDavid Howells1-0/+9
Add a configuration option to inject packet loss by discarding approximately every 8th packet received and approximately every 8th DATA packet transmitted. Note that no locking is used, but it shouldn't really matter. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
2016-09-17rxrpc: Improve skb tracingDavid Howells1-2/+2
Improve sk_buff tracing within AF_RXRPC by the following means: (1) Use an enum to note the event type rather than plain integers and use an array of event names rather than a big multi ?: list. (2) Distinguish Rx from Tx packets and account them separately. This requires the call phase to be tracked so that we know what we might find in rxtx_buffer[]. (3) Add a parameter to rxrpc_{new,see,get,free}_skb() to indicate the event type. (4) A pair of 'rotate' events are added to indicate packets that are about to be rotated out of the Rx and Tx windows. (5) A pair of 'lost' events are added, along with rxrpc_lose_skb() for packet loss injection recording. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

2016-09-17rxrpc: Be consistent about switch value in rxrpc_send_call_packet()David Howells1-1/+1
rxrpc_send_call_packet() should use type in both its switch-statements rather than using pkt->whdr.type. This might give the compiler an easier job of uninitialised variable checking. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
2016-09-17rxrpc: Don't transmit an ACK if there's no reason setDavid Howells1-0/+5

2016-09-17rxrpc: Make IPv6 support conditional on CONFIG_IPV6David Howells1-0/+2
Add CONFIG_AF_RXRPC_IPV6 and make the IPv6 support code conditional on it. This is then made conditional on CONFIG_IPV6.

2016-09-14rxrpc: Add IPv6 supportDavid Howells1-0/+16
Add IPv6 support to AF_RXRPC. With this, AF_RXRPC sockets can be created: service = socket(AF_RXRPC, SOCK_DGRAM, PF_INET6); instead of: service = socket(AF_RXRPC, SOCK_DGRAM, PF_INET); The AFS filesystem doesn't support IPv6 at the moment, though, since that requires upgrades to some of the RPC calls. Note that a good portion of this patch is replacing "%pI4:%u" in print statements with "%pISpc" which is able to handle both protocols and print the port.

2016-09-14rxrpc: Use rxrpc_extract_addr_from_skb() rather than doing this manuallyDavid Howells1-26/+6
There are two places that want to transmit a packet in response to one just received and manually pick the address to reply to out of the sk_buff. Make them use rxrpc_extract_addr_from_skb() instead so that IPv6 is handled automatically. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
2016-09-14rxrpc: Correctly initialise, limit and transmit call->rx_winsizeDavid Howells1-2/+2
call->rx_winsize should be initialised to the sysctl setting and the sysctl setting should be limited to the maximum we want to permit. Further, we need to place this in the ACK info instead of the sysctl setting. Furthermore, discard the idea of accepting the subpackets of a jumbo packet that lie beyond the receive window when the first packet of the jumbo is within the window. Just discard the excess subpackets instead. This allows the receive window to be opened up right to the buffer size less one for the dead slot. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
2016-09-08rxrpc: Rewrite the data and ack handling codeDavid Howells1-9/+116
Rewrite the data and ack handling code such that: (1) Parsing of received ACK and ABORT packets and the distribution and the filing of DATA packets happens entirely within the data_ready context called from the UDP socket. This allows us to process and discard ACK and ABORT packets much more quickly (they're no longer stashed on a queue for a background thread to process). (2) We avoid calling skb_clone(), pskb_pull() and pskb_trim(). We instead keep track of the offset and length of the content of each packet in the sk_buff metadata. This means we don't do any allocation in the receive path. (3) Jumbo DATA packet parsing is now done in data_ready context. Rather than cloning the packet once for each subpacket and pulling/trimming it, we file the packet multiple times with an annotation for each indicating which subpacket is there. From that we can directly calculate the offset and length. (4) A call's receive queue can be accessed without taking locks (memory barriers do have to be used, though). (5) Incoming calls are set up from preallocated resources and immediately made live. They can than have packets queued upon them and ACKs generated. If insufficient resources exist, DATA packet #1 is given a BUSY reply and other DATA packets are discarded). (6) sk_buffs no longer take a ref on their parent call. To make this work, the following changes are made: (1) Each call's receive buffer is now a circular buffer of sk_buff pointers (rxtx_buffer) rather than a number of sk_buff_heads spread between the call and the socket. This permits each sk_buff to be in the buffer multiple times. The receive buffer is reused for the transmit buffer. (2) A circular buffer of annotations (rxtx_annotations) is kept parallel to the data buffer. Transmission phase annotations indicate whether a buffered packet has been ACK'd or not and whether it needs retransmission. Receive phase annotations indicate whether a slot holds a whole packet or a jumbo subpacket and, if the latter, which subpacket. They also note whether the packet has been decrypted in place. (3) DATA packet window tracking is much simplified. Each phase has just two numbers representing the window (rx_hard_ack/rx_top and tx_hard_ack/tx_top). The hard_ack number is the sequence number before base of the window, representing the last packet the other side says it has consumed. hard_ack starts from 0 and the first packet is sequence number 1. The top number is the sequence number of the highest-numbered packet residing in the buffer. Packets between hard_ack+1 and top are soft-ACK'd to indicate they've been received, but not yet consumed. Four macros, before(), before_eq(), after() and after_eq() are added to compare sequence numbers within the window. This allows for the top of the window to wrap when the hard-ack sequence number gets close to the limit. Two flags, RXRPC_CALL_RX_LAST and RXRPC_CALL_TX_LAST, are added also to indicate when rx_top and tx_top point at the packets with the LAST_PACKET bit set, indicating the end of the phase. (4) Calls are queued on the socket 'receive queue' rather than packets. This means that we don't need have to invent dummy packets to queue to indicate abnormal/terminal states and we don't have to keep metadata packets (such as ABORTs) around (5) The offset and length of a (sub)packet's content are now passed to the verify_packet security op. This is currently expected to decrypt the packet in place and validate it. However, there's now nowhere to store the revised offset and length of the actual data within the decrypted blob (there may be a header and padding to skip) because an sk_buff may represent multiple packets, so a locate_data security op is added to retrieve these details from the sk_buff content when needed. (6) recvmsg() now has to handle jumbo subpackets, where each subpacket is individually secured and needs to be individually decrypted. The code to do this is broken out into rxrpc_recvmsg_data() and shared with the kernel API. It now iterates over the call's receive buffer rather than walking the socket receive queue. Additional changes: (1) The timers are condensed to a single timer that is set for the soonest of three timeouts (delayed ACK generation, DATA retransmission and call lifespan). (2) Transmission of ACK and ABORT packets is effected immediately from process-context socket ops/kernel API calls that cause them instead of them being punted off to a background work item. The data_ready handler still has to defer to the background, though. (3) A shutdown op is added to the AF_RXRPC socket so that the AFS filesystem can shut down the socket and flush its own work items before closing the socket to deal with any in-progress service calls. Future additional changes that will need to be considered: (1) Make sure that a call doesn't hog the front of the queue by receiving data from the network as fast as userspace is consuming it to the exclusion of other calls. (2) Transmit delayed ACKs from within recvmsg() when we've consumed sufficiently more packets to avoid the background work item needing to run. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
2016-09-07rxrpc: Calls shouldn't hold socket refsDavid Howells1-0/+145
rxrpc calls shouldn't hold refs on the sock struct. This was done so that the socket wouldn't go away whilst the call was in progress, such that the call could reach the socket's queues. However, we can mark the socket as requiring an RCU release and rely on the RCU read lock. To make this work, we do: (1) rxrpc_release_call() removes the call's call user ID. This is now only called from socket operations and not from the call processor: rxrpc_accept_call() / rxrpc_kernel_accept_call() rxrpc_reject_call() / rxrpc_kernel_reject_call() rxrpc_kernel_end_call() rxrpc_release_calls_on_socket() rxrpc_recvmsg() Though it is also called in the cleanup path of rxrpc_accept_incoming_call() before we assign a user ID. (2) Pass the socket pointer into rxrpc_release_call() rather than getting it from the call so that we can get rid of uninitialised calls. (3) Fix call processor queueing to pass a ref to the work queue and to release that ref at the end of the processor function (or to pass it back to the work queue if we have to requeue). (4) Skip out of the call processor function asap if the call is complete and don't requeue it if the call is complete. (5) Clean up the call immediately that the refcount reaches 0 rather than trying to defer it. Actual deallocation is deferred to RCU, however. (6) Don't hold socket refs for allocated calls. (7) Use the RCU read lock when queueing a message on a socket and treat the call's socket pointer according to RCU rules and check it for NULL. We also need to use the RCU read lock when viewing a call through procfs. (8) Transmit the final ACK/ABORT to a client call in rxrpc_release_call() if this hasn't been done yet so that we can then disconnect the call. Once the call is disconnected, it won't have any access to the connection struct and the UDP socket for the call work processor to be able to send the ACK. Terminal retransmission will be handled by the connection processor. (9) Release all calls immediately on the closing of a socket rather than trying to defer this. Incomplete calls will be aborted. The call refcount model is much simplified. Refs are held on the call by: (1) A socket's user ID tree. (2) A socket's incoming call secureq and acceptq. (3) A kernel service that has a call in progress. (4) A queued call work processor. We have to take care to put any call that we failed to queue. (5) sk_buffs on a socket's receive queue. A future patch will get rid of this. Whilst we're at it, we can do: (1) Get rid of the RXRPC_CALL_EV_RELEASE event. Release is now done entirely from the socket routines and never from the call's processor. (2) Get rid of the RXRPC_CALL_DEAD state. Calls now end in the RXRPC_CALL_COMPLETE state. (3) Get rid of the rxrpc_call::destroyer work item. Calls are now torn down when their refcount reaches 0 and then handed over to RCU for final cleanup. (4) Get rid of the rxrpc_call::deadspan timer. Calls are cleaned up immediately they're finished with and don't hang around. Post-completion retransmission is handled by the connection processor once the call is disconnected. (5) Get rid of the dead call expiry setting as there's no longer a timer to set. (6) rxrpc_destroy_all_calls() can just check that the call list is empty.

2016-09-02rxrpc: Don't expose skbs to in-kernel users [ver #2]David Howells1-1/+1
Don't expose skbs to in-kernel users, such as the AFS filesystem, but instead provide a notification hook the indicates that a call needs attention and another that indicates that there's a new call to be collected. This makes the following possibilities more achievable: (1) Call refcounting can be made simpler if skbs don't hold refs to calls. (2) skbs referring to non-data events will be able to be freed much sooner rather than being queued for AFS to pick up as rxrpc_kernel_recv_data will be able to consult the call state. (3) We can shortcut the receive phase when a call is remotely aborted because we don't have to go through all the packets to get to the one cancelling the operation. (4) It makes it easier to do encryption/decryption directly between AFS's buffers and sk_buffs. (5) Encryption/decryption can more easily be done in the AFS's thread contexts - usually that of the userspace process that issued a syscall - rather than in one of rxrpc's background threads on a workqueue. (6) AFS will be able to wait synchronously on a call inside AF_RXRPC. To make this work, the following interface function has been added: int rxrpc_kernel_recv_data( struct socket *sock, struct rxrpc_call *call, void *buffer, size_t bufsize, size_t *_offset, bool want_more, u32 *_abort_code); This is the recvmsg equivalent. It allows the caller to find out about the state of a specific call and to transfer received data into a buffer piecemeal. afs_extract_data() and rxrpc_kernel_recv_data() now do all the extraction logic between them. They don't wait synchronously yet because the socket lock needs to be dealt with. Five interface functions have been removed: rxrpc_kernel_is_data_last() rxrpc_kernel_get_abort_code() rxrpc_kernel_get_error_number() rxrpc_kernel_free_skb() rxrpc_kernel_data_consumed() As a temporary hack, sk_buffs going to an in-kernel call are queued on the rxrpc_call struct (->knlrecv_queue) rather than being handed over to the in-kernel user. To process the queue internally, a temporary function, temp_deliver_data() has been added. This will be replaced with common code between the rxrpc_recvmsg() path and the kernel_rxrpc_recv_data() path in a future patch.

2016-08-24rxrpc: Improve management and caching of client connection objectsDavid Howells1-2/+4
Improve the management and caching of client rxrpc connection objects. From this point, client connections will be managed separately from service connections because AF_RXRPC controls the creation and re-use of client connections but doesn't have that luxury with service connections. Further, there will be limits on the numbers of client connections that may be live on a machine. No direct restriction will be placed on the number of client calls, excepting that each client connection can support a maximum of four concurrent calls. Note that, for a number of reasons, we don't want to simply discard a client connection as soon as the last call is apparently finished: (1) Security is negotiated per-connection and the context is then shared between all calls on that connection. The context can be negotiated again if the connection lapses, but that involves holding up calls whilst at least two packets are exchanged and various crypto bits are performed - so we'd ideally like to cache it for a little while at least. (2) If a packet goes astray, we will need to retransmit a final ACK or ABORT packet. To make this work, we need to keep around the connection details for a little while. (3) The locally held structures represent some amount of setup time, to be weighed against their occupation of memory when idle. To this end, the client connection cache is managed by a state machine on each connection. There are five states: (1) INACTIVE - The connection is not held in any list and may not have been exposed to the world. If it has been previously exposed, it was discarded from the idle list after expiring. (2) WAITING - The connection is waiting for the number of client conns to drop below the maximum capacity. Calls may be in progress upon it from when it was active and got culled. The connection is on the rxrpc_waiting_client_conns list which is kept in to-be-granted order. Culled conns with waiters go to the back of the queue just like new conns. (3) ACTIVE - The connection has at least one call in progress upon it, it may freely grant available channels to new calls and calls may be waiting on it for channels to become available. The connection is on the rxrpc_active_client_conns list which is kept in activation order for culling purposes. (4) CULLED - The connection got summarily culled to try and free up capacity. Calls currently in progress on the connection are allowed to continue, but new calls will have to wait. There can be no waiters in this state - the conn would have to go to the WAITING state instead. (5) IDLE - The connection has no calls in progress upon it and must have been exposed to the world (ie. the EXPOSED flag must be set). When it expires, the EXPOSED flag is cleared and the connection transitions to the INACTIVE state. The connection is on the rxrpc_idle_client_conns list which is kept in order of how soon they'll expire. A connection in the ACTIVE or CULLED state must have at least one active call upon it; if in the WAITING state it may have active calls upon it; other states may not have active calls. As long as a connection remains active and doesn't get culled, it may continue to process calls - even if there are connections on the wait queue. This simplifies things a bit and reduces the amount of checking we need do. There are a couple flags of relevance to the cache: (1) EXPOSED - The connection ID got exposed to the world. If this flag is set, an extra ref is added to the connection preventing it from being reaped when it has no calls outstanding. This flag is cleared and the ref dropped when a conn is discarded from the idle list. (2) DONT_REUSE - The connection should be discarded as soon as possible and should not be reused. This commit also provides a number of new settings: (*) /proc/net/rxrpc/max_client_conns The maximum number of live client connections. Above this number, new connections get added to the wait list and must wait for an active conn to be culled. Culled connections can be reused, but they will go to the back of the wait list and have to wait. (*) /proc/net/rxrpc/reap_client_conns If the number of desired connections exceeds the maximum above, the active connection list will be culled until there are only this many left in it. (*) /proc/net/rxrpc/idle_conn_expiry The normal expiry time for a client connection, provided there are fewer than reap_client_conns of them around. (*) /proc/net/rxrpc/idle_conn_fast_expiry The expedited expiry time, used when there are more than reap_client_conns of them around. Note that I combined the Tx wait queue with the channel grant wait queue to save space as only one of these should be in use at once. Note also that, for the moment, the service connection cache still uses the old connection management code. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

Use a tracepoint to log various skb accounting points to help in debugging refcounting errors. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
2016-08-23rxrpc: Tidy up the rxrpc_call struct a bitDavid Howells1-2/+2
Do a little tidying of the rxrpc_call struct: (1) in_clientflag is no longer compared against the value that's in the packet, so keeping it in this form isn't necessary. Use a flag in flags instead and provide a pair of wrapper functions. (2) We don't read the epoch value, so that can go. (3) Move what remains of the data that were used for hashing up in the struct to be with the channel number. (4) Get rid of the local pointer. We can get at this via the socket struct and we only use this in the procfs viewer. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
2016-06-22rxrpc: Kill off the rxrpc_transport structDavid Howells1-23/+1
The rxrpc_transport struct is now redundant, given that the rxrpc_peer struct is now per peer port rather than per peer host, so get rid of it. Service connection lists are transferred to the rxrpc_peer struct, as is the conn_lock. Previous patches moved the client connection handling out of the rxrpc_transport struct and discarded the connection bundling code. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
2016-06-22rxrpc: Kill the client connection bundle conceptDavid Howells1-10/+1
Kill off the concept of maintaining a bundle of connections to a particular target service to increase the number of call slots available for any beyond four for that service (there are four call slots per connection). This will make cleaning up the connection handling code easier and facilitate removal of the rxrpc_transport struct. Bundling can be reintroduced later if necessary.

2016-06-22rxrpc: Make rxrpc_send_packet() take a connection not a transportDavid Howells1-22/+29
Make rxrpc_send_packet() take a connection not a transport as part of the phasing out of the rxrpc_transport struct. Whilst we're at it, rename the function to rxrpc_send_data_packet() to differentiate it from the other packet sending functions. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
2016-06-22rxrpc: Fix exclusive connection handlingDavid Howells1-5/+14
"Exclusive connections" are meant to be used for a single client call and then scrapped. The idea is to limit the use of the negotiated security context. The current code, however, isn't doing this: it is instead restricting the socket to a single virtual connection and doing all the calls over that. This is changed such that the socket no longer maintains a special virtual connection over which it will do all the calls, but rather gets a new one each time a new exclusive call is made. Further, using a socket option for this is a poor choice. It should be done on sendmsg with a control message marker instead so that calls can be marked exclusive individually. To that end, add RXRPC_EXCLUSIVE_CALL which, if passed to sendmsg() as a control message element, will cause the call to be done on an single-use connection. The socket option (RXRPC_EXCLUSIVE_CONNECTION) still exists and, if set, will override any lack of RXRPC_EXCLUSIVE_CALL being specified so that programs using the setsockopt() will appear to work the same.

2016-06-22rxrpc: Replace conn->trans->{local,peer} with conn->params.{local,peer}David Howells1-1/+1
Replace accesses of conn->trans->{local,peer} with conn->params.{local,peer} thus making it easier for a future commit to remove the rxrpc_transport struct. This also reduces the number of memory accesses involved. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
2016-06-22rxrpc: Use structs to hold connection params and protocol infoDavid Howells1-7/+17
Define and use a structure to hold connection parameters. This makes it easier to pass multiple connection parameters around. Define and use a structure to hold protocol information used to hash a connection for lookup on incoming packet. Most of these fields will be disposed of eventually, including the duplicate local pointer. Whilst we're at it rename "proto" to "family" when referring to a protocol family.

2016-06-15rxrpc: Use the peer record to distribute network errorsDavid Howells1-1/+3
Use the peer record to distribute network errors rather than the transport object (which I want to get rid of). An error from a particular peer terminates all calls on that peer. For future consideration: (1) For ICMP-induced errors it might be worth trying to extract the RxRPC header from the offending packet, if one is returned attached to the ICMP packet, to better direct the error. This may be overkill, though, since an ICMP packet would be expected to be relating to the destination port, machine or network. RxRPC ABORT and BUSY packets give notice at RxRPC level. (2) To also abort connection-level communications (such as CHALLENGE packets) where indicted by an error - but that requires some revamping of the connection event handling first.

2016-06-13rxrpc: Rename files matching ar-*.c to git rid of the "ar-" prefixDavid Howells1-0/+724
Rename files matching net/rxrpc/ar-*.c to get rid of the "ar-" prefix. This will aid splitting those files by making easier to come up with new names. Note that the not all files are simply renamed from ar-X.c to X.c. The following exceptions are made: (*) ar-call.c -> call_object.c ar-ack.c -> call_event.c call_object.c is going to contain the core of the call object handling. Call event handling is all going to be in call_event.c. (*) ar-accept.c -> call_accept.c Incoming call handling is going to be here. (*) ar-connection.c -> conn_object.c ar-connevent.c -> conn_event.c The former file is going to have the basic connection object handling, but there will likely be some differentiation between client connections and service connections in additional files later. The latter file will have all the connection-level event handling. (*) ar-local.c -> local_object.c This will have the local endpoint object handling code. The local endpoint event handling code will later be split out into local_event.c. (*) ar-peer.c -> peer_object.c This will have the peer endpoint object handling code. Peer event handling code will be placed in peer_event.c (for the moment, there is none). (*) ar-error.c -> peer_event.c This will become the peer event handling code, though for the moment it's actually driven from the local endpoint's perspective. Note that I haven't renamed ar-transport.c to transport_object.c as the intention is to delete it when the rxrpc_transport struct is excised. The only file that actually has its contents changed is net/rxrpc/Makefile. net/rxrpc/ar-internal.h will need its section marker comments updating, but I'll do that in a separate patch to make it easier for git to follow the history across the rename. I may also want to rename ar-internal.h at some point - but that would mean updating all the #includes and I'd rather do that in a separate step. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com.
