As per comment from David Miller, we try to make the buffer reassembly function more resilient to user errors than it is today. - We check that the "*buf" parameter always is set, since this is mandatory input. - We ensure that *buf->next always is set to NULL before linking in the buffer, instead of relying of the caller to have done this. - We ensure that the "tail" pointer in the head buffer's control block is initialized to NULL when the first fragment arrives.

2014-07-16tipc: ensure sequential message delivery across dual bearersJon Paul Maloy
When we run broadcast packets over dual bearers/interfaces, the current transmission code is flipping bearers between each sent packet, with the purpose of leveraging the double bandwidth available. The receiving bclink is resequencing the packets if needed, so all messages are delivered upwards from the broadcast link in the correct order, even if they may arrive in concurrent interrupts. However, at the moment of delivery upwards to the socket, we release all spinlocks (bclink_lock, node_lock), so it is still possible that arriving messages bypass each other before they reach the socket queue. We fix this by applying the same technique we are using for unicast traffic. We use a link selector (i.e., the last bit of sending port number) to ensure that messages from the same sender socket always are sent over the same bearer. This guarantees sequential delivery between socket pairs, which is sufficient to satisfy the protocol spec, as well as all known user requirements.

In this commit, we convert the socket multicast send function to directly call the new multicast/broadcast function (tipc_bclink_xmit2()) introduced in the previous commit. We do this instead of letting the call go via the now obsolete tipc_port_mcast_xmit(), hence saving a call level and some code complexity. We also remove the initial destination lookup at the message sending side, and replace that with an unconditional lookup at the receiving side, including on the sending node itself.

We add a new broadcast link transmit function in bclink.c and a new receive function in socket.c. The purpose is to move the branching between external and internal destination down to the link layer, just as we have done with unicast in earlier commits. We also make use of the new link-independent fragmentation support that was introduced in an earlier commit series. This gives a shorter and simpler code path, and makes it possible to obtain copy-free buffer delivery to all node local destination sockets.

2014-07-11tipc: clear 'next'-pointer of message fragments before reassemblyJon Paul Maloy
If the 'next' pointer of the last fragment buffer in a message is not zeroed before reassembly, we risk ending up with a corrupt message, since the reassembly function itself isn't doing this. Currently, when a buffer is retrieved from the deferred queue of the broadcast link, the next pointer is not cleared, with the result as described above. This commit corrects this, and thereby fixes a bug that may occur when long broadcast messages are transmitted across dual interfaces.

Since commit 37e22164a8a3c39bdad45aa463b1e69a1fdf4110 ("tipc: rename and move message reassembly function") reassembly of long broadcast messages has been broken. This is because we test for a non-NULL return value of the *buf parameter as criteria for succesful reassembly. However, this parameter is left defined even after reception of the first fragment, when reassebly is still incomplete.

Link state acks triggered from the receive path is done before the last received packet have been processed by the link layer. The effect of this is that the last received packet will not be included in the ack. This causes problems if the link window is set to TIPC_MIN_LINK_WIN, where the ack interval will be equal to the link tolerance, and the link enters a stop-and-go behavior.

2014-06-27tipc: simplify connection congestion handlingJon Paul Maloy
As a consequence of the recently introduced serialized access to the socket in commit 8d94168a761819d10252bab1f8de6d7b202c3baa ("tipc: same receive code path for connection protocol and data messages") we can make a number of simplifications in the detection and handling of connection congestion situations. - We don't need to keep two counters, one for sent messages and one for acked messages. There is no longer any risk for races between acknowledge messages arriving in BH and data message sending running in user context. So we merge this into one counter, 'sent_unacked', which is incremented at sending and subtracted from at acknowledge reception. - We don't need to set the 'congested' field in tipc_port to true before we sent the message, and clear it when sending is successful. (As a matter of fact, it was never necessary; the field was set in link_schedule_port() before any wakeup could arrive anyway.) - We keep the conditions for link congestion and connection connection congestion separated. There would otherwise be a risk that an arriving acknowledge message may wake up a user sleeping because of link congestion. - We can simplify reception of acknowledge messages. We also make some cosmetic/structural changes: - We rename the 'congested' field to the more correct 'link_congĀ“. - We rename 'conn_unacked' to 'rcv_unacked' - We move the above mentioned fields from struct tipc_port to struct tipc_sock.

2014-06-27tipc: clean up connection protocol reception functionJon Paul Maloy
We simplify the code for receiving connection probes, leveraging the recently introduced tipc_msg_reverse() function. We also stick to the principle of sending a possible response message directly from the calling (tipc_sk_rcv or backlog_rcv) functions, hence making the call chain shallower and easier to follow. We make one small protocol change here, allowed according to the spec. If a protocol message arrives from a remote socket that is not the one we are connected to, we are currently generating a connection abort message and send it to the source. This behavior is unnecessary, and might even be a security risk, so instead we now choose to only ignore the message. The consequnce for the sender is that he will need longer time to discover his mistake (until the next timeout), but this is an extreme corner case, and may happen anyway under other circumstances, so we deem this change acceptable.

2014-06-27tipc: introduce message evaluation functionJon Paul Maloy
When a message arrives in a node and finds no destination socket, we may need to drop it, reject it, or forward it after a secondary destination lookup. The latter two cases currently results in a code path that is perceived as complex, because it follows a deep call chain via obscure functions such as net_route_named_msg() and net_route_msg(). We now introduce a function, tipc_msg_eval(), that takes the decision about whether such a message should be rejected or forwarded, but leaves it to the caller to actually perform the indicated action. If the decision is 'reject', it is still the task of the recently introduced function tipc_msg_reverse() to take the final decision about whether the message is rejectable or not. In the latter case it drops the message. As a result of this change, we can finally eliminate the function net_route_named_msg(), and hence become independent of net_route_msg().

2014-06-27tipc: introduce direct iovec to buffer chain fragmentation functionJon Paul Maloy
Fragmentation at message sending is currently performed in two places in link.c, depending on whether data to be transmitted is delivered in the form of an iovec or as a big sk_buff. Those functions are also tightly entangled with the send functions that are using them. We now introduce a re-entrant, standalone function, tipc_msg_build2(), that builds a packet chain directly from an iovec. Each fragment is sized according to the MTU value given by the caller, and is prepended with a correctly built fragment header, when needed. The function is independent from who is calling and where the chain will be delivered, as long as the caller is able to indicate a correct MTU. The function is tested, but not called by anybody yet. Since it is incompatible with the existing tipc_msg_build(), and we cannot yet remove that function, we have given it a temporary name.

2014-06-27tipc: introduce send functions for chained buffers in linkJon Paul Maloy
The current link implementation provides several different transmit functions, depending on the characteristics of the message to be sent: if it is an iovec or an sk_buff, if it needs fragmentation or not, if the caller holds the node_lock or not. The permutation of these options gives us an unwanted amount of unnecessarily complex code. As a first step towards simplifying the send path for all messages, we introduce two new send functions at link level, tipc_link_xmit2() and __tipc_link_xmit2(). The former looks up a link to the message destination, and if one is found, it grabs the node lock and calls the second function, which works exclusively inside the node lock protection. If no link is found, and the destination is on the same node, it delivers the message directly to the local destination socket. The new functions take a buffer chain where all packet headers are already prepared, and the correct MTU has been used. These two functions will later replace all other link-level transmit functions. The functions are not backwards compatible, so we have added them as new functions with temporary names. They are tested, but have no users yet. Those will be added later in this series.

TIPC currently handles two media specific addresses: Ethernet MAC addresses and InfiniBand addresses. Those are kept in three different formats: 1) A "raw" format as obtained from the device. This format is known only by the media specific adapter code in eth_media.c and ib_media.c. 2) A "generic" internal format, in the form of struct tipc_media_addr, which can be referenced and passed around by the generic media- unaware code. 3) A serialized version of the latter, to be conveyed in neighbor discovery messages. Conversion between the three formats can only be done by the media specific code, so we have function pointers for this purpose in struct tipc_media. Here, the media adapters can install their own conversion functions at startup. We now introduce a new such function, 'raw2addr()', whose purpose is to convert from format 1 to format 2 above. We also try to as far as possible uniform commenting, variable names and usage of these functions, with the purpose of making them more comprehensible. We can now also remove the function tipc_l2_media_addr_set(), whose job is done better by the new function. Finally, we expand the field for serialized addresses (format 3) in discovery messages from 20 to 32 bytes.

2014-05-14tipc: mark head of reassembly buffer as non-linearJon Paul Maloy
The message reassembly function does not update the 'len' and 'data_len' fields of the head skbuff correctly when fragments are chained to it. This may sometimes lead to obsure errors, such as fragment reordering when we receive fragments which are cloned buffers. This commit fixes this, by ensuring that the two fields are updated correctly.

2014-05-14tipc: don't record link RESET or ACTIVATE messages as trafficJon Paul Maloy
In the current code, all incoming LINK_PROTOCOL messages, irrespective of type, nudge the "last message received" checkpoint, informing the link state machine that a message was received from the peer since last supervision timeout event. This inhibits the link from starting probing the peer unnecessarily. However, not only STATE messages are recorded as legitimate incoming traffic this way, but even RESET and ACTIVATE messages, which in reality are there to inform the link that the peer endpoint has been reset. At the same time, some RESET messages may be dropped instead of causing a link reset. This happens when the link endpoint thinks it is fully up and working, and the session number of the RESET is lower than or equal to the current link session. In such cases the RESET is perceived as a delayed remnant from an earlier session, or the current one, and dropped. Now, if a TIPC module is removed and then immediately reinserted, e.g. when using a script, RESET messages may arrive at the peer link endpoint before this one has had time to discover the failure. The RESET may be dropped because of the session number, but only after it has been recorded as a legitimate traffic event. Hence, the receiving link will not start probing, and not discover that the peer endpoint is down, at the same time ignoring the periodic RESET messages coming from that endpoint. We have ended up in a stale state where a failed link cannot be re-established. In this commit, we remedy this by nudging the checkpoint only for received STATE messages, not for RESET or ACTIVATE messages.

2014-05-14tipc: compensate for double accounting in socket rcv bufferJon Paul Maloy
The function net/core/sock.c::__release_sock() runs a tight loop to move buffers from the socket backlog queue to the receive queue. As a security measure, sk_backlog.len of the receiving socket is not set to zero until after the loop is finished, i.e., until the whole backlog queue has been transferred to the receive queue. During this transfer, the data that has already been moved is counted both in the backlog queue and the receive queue, hence giving an incorrect picture of the available queue space for new arriving buffers. This leads to unnecessary rejection of buffers by sk_add_backlog(), which in TIPC leads to unnecessarily broken connections. In this commit, we compensate for this double accounting by adding a counter that keeps track of it. The function socket.c::backlog_rcv() receives buffers one by one from __release_sock(), and adds them to the socket receive queue. If the transfer is successful, it increases a new atomic counter 'tipc_sock::dupl_rcvcnt' with 'truesize' of the transferred buffer. If a new buffer arrives during this transfer and finds the socket busy (owned), we attempt to add it to the backlog. However, when sk_add_backlog() is called, we adjust the 'limit' parameter with the value of the new counter, so that the risk of inadvertent rejection is eliminated. It should be noted that this change does not invalidate the original purpose of zeroing 'sk_backlog.len' after the full transfer. We set an upper limit for dupl_rcvcnt, so that if a 'wild' sender (i.e., one that doesn't respect the send window) keeps pumping in buffers to sk_add_backlog(), he will eventually reach an upper limit, (2 x TIPC_CONN_OVERLOAD_LIMIT). After that, no messages can be added to the backlog, and the connection will be broken. Ordinary, well- behaved senders will never reach this buffer limit at all.

2014-05-14tipc: decrease connection flow control windowJon Paul Maloy
Memory overhead when allocating big buffers for data transfer may be quite significant. E.g., truesize of a 64 KB buffer turns out to be 132 KB, 2 x the requested size. This invalidates the "worst case" calculation we have been using to determine the default socket receive buffer limit, which is based on the assumption that 1024x64KB = 67MB buffers may be queued up on a socket. Since TIPC connections cannot survive hitting the buffer limit, we have to compensate for this overhead. We do that in this commit by dividing the fix connection flow control window from 1024 (2*512) messages to 512 (2*256). Since older version nodes send out acks at 512 message intervals, compatibility with such nodes is guaranteed, although performance may be non-optimal in such cases.

Each node action flag should be set or cleared separately, instead we now set the whole flags variable in one shot, and it's turned out to be hard to see which other flags are affected. Therefore, for instance, we explicitly clear TIPC_WAIT_OWN_LINKS_DOWN bit in node_lost_contact().
