2020-05-13tipc: fix failed service subscription deletionTuong Lien1-0/+10
When a service subscription is expired or canceled by user, it needs to be deleted from the subscription list, so that new subscriptions can be registered (max = 65535 per net). However, there are two issues in code that can cause such an unused subscription to persist: 1) The 'tipc_conn_delete_sub()' has a loop on the subscription list but it makes a break shortly when the 1st subscription differs from the one specified, so the subscription will not be deleted. 2) In case a subscription is canceled, the code to remove the 'TIPC_SUB_CANCEL' flag from the subscription filter does not work if it is a local subscription (i.e. the little endian isn't involved). So, it will be no matches when looking for the subscription to delete later. The subscription(s) will be removed eventually when the user terminates its topology connection but that could be a long time later. Meanwhile, the number of available subscriptions may be exhausted. This commit fixes the two issues above, so as needed a subscription can be deleted correctly.

2018-04-01tipc: replace name table service range array with rb treeJon Maloy1-2/+2
The current design of the binding table has an unnecessary memory consuming and complex data structure. It aggregates the service range items into an array, which is expanded by a factor two every time it becomes too small to hold a new item. Furthermore, the arrays never shrink when the number of ranges diminishes. We now replace this array with an RB tree that is holding the range items as tree nodes, each range directly holding a list of bindings. This, along with a few name changes, improves both readability and volume of the code, as well as reducing memory consumption and hopefully improving cache hit rate.

2018-02-16tipc: simplify endianness handling in topology subscriberJon Maloy1-9/+27
Because of the requirement for total distribution transparency, users send subscriptions and receive topology events in their own host format. It is up to the topology server to determine this format and do the correct conversions to and from its own host format when needed. Until now, this has been handled in a rather non-transparent way inside the topology server and subscriber code, leading to unnecessary complexity when creating subscriptions and issuing events. We now improve this situation by adding two new macros, tipc_sub_read() and tipc_evt_write(). Both those functions calculate the need for conversion internally before performing their respective operations. Hence, all handling of such conversions become transparent to the rest of the code.

The message transmission and reception in the topology server is more generic than is currently necessary.

2018-02-16tipc: eliminate struct tipc_subscriberJon Maloy1-7/+10
It is unnecessary to keep two structures, struct tipc_conn and struct tipc_subscriber, with a one-to-one relationship and still with different life cycles. The fact that the two often run in different contexts, and still may access each other via direct pointers constitutes an additional hazard, something we have experienced at several occasions, and still see happening. We have identified at least two remaining problems that are easier to fix if we simplify the topology server data structure somewhat. - When there is a race between a subscription up/down event and a timeout event, it is fully possible that the former might be delivered after the latter, leading to confusion for the receiver. - The function tipc_subcrp_timeout() is executing in interrupt context, while the following call chain is at least theoretically possible: tipc_subscrp_timeout() tipc_subscrp_send_event() tipc_conn_sendmsg() conn_put() tipc_conn_kref_release() sock_release(sock) I.e., we end up calling a function that might try to sleep in interrupt context. To eliminate this, we need to ensure that the tipc_conn structure and the socket, as well as the subscription instances, only are deleted in work queue context, i.e., after the timeout event really has been sent out. We now remove this unnecessary complexity, by merging data and functionality of the subscriber structure into struct tipc_conn and the associated file server.c. We thereafter add a spinlock and a new 'inactive' state to the subscription structure. Using those, both problems described above can be easily solved.

2018-01-09tipc: improve groupcast scope handlingJon Maloy1-1/+1
When a member joins a group, it also indicates a binding scope. This makes it possible to create both node local groups, invisible to other nodes, as well as cluster global groups, visible everywhere. In order to avoid that different members end up having permanently differing views of group size and memberhip, we must inhibit locally and globally bound members from joining the same group. We do this by using the binding scope as an additional separator between groups. I.e., a member must ignore all membership events from sockets using a different scope than itself, and all lookups for message destinations must require an exact match between the message's lookup scope and the potential target's binding scope. Apart from making it possible to create local groups using the same identity on different nodes, a side effect of this is that it now also becomes possible to create a cluster global group with the same identity across the same nodes, without interfering with the local groups.

2017-03-29tipc: adjust the policy of holding subscription krefYing Xue1-0/+3
When a new subscription object is inserted into name_seq->subscriptions list, it's under name_seq->lock protection; when a subscription is deleted from the list, it's also under the same lock protection; similarly, when accessing a subscription by going through subscriptions list, the entire process is also protected by the name_seq->lock. Therefore, if subscription refcount is increased before it's inserted into subscriptions list, and its refcount is decreased after it's deleted from the list, it will be unnecessary to hold refcount at all before accessing subscription object which is obtained by going through subscriptions list under name_seq->lock protection.

2017-01-25tipc: add subscription refcount to avoid invalid deleteParthasarathy Bhuvaragan1-0/+1
Until now, the subscribers keep track of the subscriptions using reference count at subscriber level. At subscription cancel or subscriber delete, we delete the subscription only if the timer was pending for the subscription. This approach is incorrect as: 1. del_timer() is not SMP safe, if on CPU0 the check for pending timer returns true but CPU1 might schedule the timer callback thereby deleting the subscription. Thus when CPU0 is scheduled, it deletes an invalid subscription. 2. We export tipc_subscrp_report_overlap(), which accesses the subscription pointer multiple times. Meanwhile the subscription timer can expire thereby freeing the subscription and we might continue to access the subscription pointer leading to memory violations. In this commit, we introduce subscription refcount to avoid deleting an invalid subscription.

The struct tipc_subscription contains a field swap to determine if request needs network byte order conversion. Thus by using swap, we can convert the request when required instead of duplicating it.

2015-05-04tipc: rename functions defined in subscr.cYing Xue1-9/+9
When a topology server accepts a connection request from its client, it allocates a connection instance and a tipc_subscriber structure object. The former is used to communicate with client, and the latter is often treated as a subscriber which manages all subscription events requested from a same client. When a topology server receives a request of subscribing name services from a client through the connection, it creates a tipc_subscription structure instance which is seen as a subscription recording what name services are subscribed. In order to manage all subscriptions from a same client, topology server links them into the subscrp_list of the subscriber. So subscriber and subscription completely represents different meanings respectively, but function names associated with them make us so confused that we are unable to easily tell which function is against subscriber and which is to subscription. So we want to eliminate the confusion by renaming them. Signed-off-by: Ying Xue <ying.xue@windriver.com> Reviewed-by: Jon Maloy <jon.maloy@ericson.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-06-18tipc: convert topology server to use new server facilityYing Xue1-2/+6
As the new TIPC server infrastructure has been introduced, we can now convert the TIPC topology server to it. We get two benefits from doing this: 1) It simplifies the topology server locking policy. In the original locking policy, we placed one spin lock pointer in the tipc_subscriber structure to reuse the lock of the subscriber's server port, controlling access to members of tipc_subscriber instance. That is, we only used one lock to ensure both tipc_port and tipc_subscriber members were safely accessed. Now we introduce another spin lock for tipc_subscriber structure only protecting themselves, to get a finer granularity locking policy. Moreover, the change will allow us to make the topology server code more readable and maintainable. 2) It fixes a bug where sent subscription events may be lost when the topology port is congested. Using the new service, the topology server now queues sent events into an outgoing buffer, and then wakes up a sender process which has been blocked in workqueue context. The process will keep picking events from the buffer and send them to their respective subscribers, using the kernel socket interface, until the buffer is empty. Even if the socket is congested during transmission there is no risk that events may be dropped, since the sender process may block when needed. Some minor reordering of initialization is done, since we now have a scenario where the topology server must be started after socket initialization has taken place, as the former depends on the latter. And overall, we see a simplification of the TIPC subscriber code in making this changeover.

Remove htohl implementation from tipc I was working on forward porting the downstream commits for TIPC and ran accross this one: http://tipc.cslab.ericsson.net/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=people/allan/tipc.git;a=commitdiff;h=894279b9437b63cbb02405ad5b8e033b51e4e31e I was going to just take it, when I looked closer and noted what it was doing. This is basically a routine to byte swap fields of data in sent/received packets for tipc, dependent upon the receivers guessed endianness of the peer when a connection is established. Asside from just seeming silly to me, it appears to violate the latest RFC draft for tipc: http://tipc.sourceforge.net/doc/draft-spec-tipc-02.txt Which, according to section 4.2 and 4.3.3, requires that all fields of all commands be sent in network byte order. So instead of just taking this patch, instead I'm removing the htohl function and replacing the calls with calls to ntohl in the rx path and htonl in the send path. As part of this fix, I'm also changing the subscr_cancel function, which searches the list of subscribers, using a memcmp of the entire subscriber list, for the entry to tear down. unfortunately it memcmps the entire tipc_subscr structure which has several bits that are private to the local side, so nothing will ever match. section 5.2 of the draft spec indicates the <type,upper,lower> tuple should uniquely identify a subscriber, so convert subscr_cancel to just match on those fields (properly endian swapped).
