2022-05-22rxrpc: Fix decision on when to generate an IDLE ACKDavid Howells1-7/+11
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).

2022-01-22rxrpc: Adjust retransmission backoffDavid Howells1-1/+1
Improve retransmission backoff by only backing off when we retransmit data packets rather than when we set the lost ack timer. To this end: (1) In rxrpc_resend(), use rxrpc_get_rto_backoff() when setting the retransmission timer and only tell it that we are retransmitting if we actually have things to retransmit. Note that it's possible for the retransmission algorithm to race with the processing of a received ACK, so we may see no packets needing retransmission. (2) In rxrpc_send_data_packet(), don't bump the backoff when setting the ack_lost_at timer, as it may then get bumped twice. With this, when looking at one particular packet, the retransmission intervals were seen to be 1.5ms, 2ms, 3ms, 5ms, 9ms, 17ms, 33ms, 71ms, 136ms, 264ms, 544ms, 1.088s, 2.1s, 4.2s and 8.3s.

2020-09-08rxrpc: Rewrite the client connection managerDavid Howells1-0/+6
Rewrite the rxrpc client connection manager so that it can support multiple connections for a given security key to a peer. The following changes are made: (1) For each open socket, the code currently maintains an rbtree with the connections placed into it, keyed by communications parameters. This is tricky to maintain as connections can be culled from the tree or replaced within it. Connections can require replacement for a number of reasons, e.g. their IDs span too great a range for the IDR data type to represent efficiently, the call ID numbers on that conn would overflow or the conn got aborted. This is changed so that there's now a connection bundle object placed in the tree, keyed on the same parameters. The bundle, however, does not need to be replaced. (2) An rxrpc_bundle object can now manage the available channels for a set of parallel connections. The lock that manages this is moved there from the rxrpc_connection struct (channel_lock). (3) There'a a dummy bundle for all incoming connections to share so that they have a channel_lock too. It might be better to give each incoming connection its own bundle. This bundle is not needed to manage which channels incoming calls are made on because that's the solely at whim of the client. (4) The restrictions on how many client connections are around are removed. Instead, a previous patch limits the number of client calls that can be allocated. Ordinarily, client connections are reaped after 2 minutes on the idle queue, but when more than a certain number of connections are in existence, the reaper starts reaping them after 2s of idleness instead to get the numbers back down. It could also be made such that new call allocations are forced to wait until the number of outstanding connections subsides. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
2020-08-20rxrpc: Fix loss of RTT samples due to interposed ACKDavid Howells1-21/+61
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.

2020-05-11rxrpc: Fix the excessive initial retransmission timeoutDavid Howells1-6/+3
rxrpc currently uses a fixed 4s retransmission timeout until the RTT is sufficiently sampled. This can cause problems with some fileservers with calls to the cache manager in the afs filesystem being dropped from the fileserver because a packet goes missing and the retransmission timeout is greater than the call expiry timeout. Fix this by: (1) Copying the RTT/RTO calculation code from Linux's TCP implementation and altering it to fit rxrpc. (2) Altering the various users of the RTT to make use of the new SRTT value. (3) Replacing the use of rxrpc_resend_timeout to use the calculated RTO value instead (which is needed in jiffies), along with a backoff. Notes: (1) rxrpc provides RTT samples by matching the serial numbers on outgoing DATA packets that have the RXRPC_REQUEST_ACK set and PING ACK packets against the reference serial number in incoming REQUESTED ACK and PING-RESPONSE ACK packets. (2) Each packet that is transmitted on an rxrpc connection gets a new per-connection serial number, even for retransmissions, so an ACK can be cross-referenced to a specific trigger packet. This allows RTT information to be drawn from retransmitted DATA packets also. (3) rxrpc maintains the RTT/RTO state on the rxrpc_peer record rather than on an rxrpc_call because many RPC calls won't live long enough to generate more than one sample. (4) The calculated SRTT value is in units of 8ths of a microsecond rather than nanoseconds. The (S)RTT and RTO values are displayed in /proc/net/rxrpc/peers.

2020-04-14rxrpc: Fix DATA Tx to disable nofrag for UDP on AF_INET6 socketDavid Howells1-32/+12
Fix the DATA packet transmission to disable nofrag for UDPv4 on an AF_INET6 socket as well as UDPv6 when trying to transmit fragmentably. Without this, packets filled to the normal size used by the kernel AFS client of 1412 bytes be rejected by udp_sendmsg() with EMSGSIZE immediately. The ->sk_error_report() notification hook is called, but rxrpc doesn't generate a trace for it. This is a temporary fix; a more permanent solution needs to involve changing the size of the packets being filled in accordance with the MTU, which isn't currently done in AF_RXRPC. The reason for not doing so was that, barring the last packet in an rx jumbo packet, jumbos can only be assembled out of 1412-byte packets - and the plan was to construct jumbos on the fly at transmission time. Also, there's no point turning on IPV6_MTU_DISCOVER, since IPv6 has to engage in this anyway since fragmentation is only done by the sender. We can then condense the switch-statement in rxrpc_send_data_packet(). Fixes: 75b54cb57ca3 ("rxrpc: Add IPv6 support") Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2020-02-03rxrpc: Fix NULL pointer deref due to call->conn being cleared on disconnectDavid Howells1-18/+9

Unfortunately, there might be a daemon trying to use it at the same time to transmit a packet. Fix this by keeping call->conn set, but setting a flag on the call to indicate disconnection instead. Remove also the bits in the transmission functions where the conn pointer is checked and a ref taken under spinlock as this is now redundant.

2018-11-02rxrpc: Fix lockup due to no error backoff after ack transmit errorDavid Howells1-4/+31
If the network becomes (partially) unavailable, say by disabling IPv6, the background ACK transmission routine can get itself into a tizzy by proposing immediate ACK retransmission. Since we're in the call event processor, that happens immediately without returning to the workqueue manager. The condition should clear after a while when either the network comes back or the call times out. Fix this by: (1) When re-proposing an ACK on failed Tx, don't schedule it immediately. This will allow a certain amount of time to elapse before we try again. (2) Enforce a return to the workqueue manager after a certain number of iterations of the call processing loop. (3) Add a backoff delay that increases the delay on deferred ACKs by a jiffy per failed transmission to a limit of HZ. The backoff delay is cleared on a successful return from kernel_sendmsg(). (4) Cancel calls immediately if the opening sendmsg fails. The layer above can arrange retransmission or rotate to another server.

In the input path, a received sk_buff can be marked for rejection by setting RXRPC_SKB_MARK_* in skb->mark and, if needed, some auxiliary data (such as an abort code) in skb->priority. The rejection is handled by queueing the sk_buff up for dealing with in process context. The output code reads the mark and priority and, theoretically, generates an appropriate response packet. However, if RXRPC_SKB_MARK_BUSY is set, this isn't noticed and an ABORT message with a random abort code is generated (since skb->priority wasn't set to anything). Fix this by outputting the appropriate sort of packet. Also, whilst we're at it, most of the marks are no longer used, so remove them and rename the remaining two to something more obvious.

2018-08-08rxrpc: Fix the keepalive generator [ver #2]David Howells1-6/+6
AF_RXRPC has a keepalive message generator that generates a message for a peer ~20s after the last transmission to that peer to keep firewall ports open. The implementation is incorrect in the following ways: (1) It mixes up ktime_t and time64_t types. (2) It uses ktime_get_real(), the output of which may jump forward or backward due to adjustments to the time of day. (3) If the current time jumps forward too much or jumps backwards, the generator function will crank the base of the time ring round one slot at a time (ie. a 1s period) until it catches up, spewing out VERSION packets as it goes. Fix the problem by: (1) Only using time64_t. There's no need for sub-second resolution. (2) Use ktime_get_seconds() rather than ktime_get_real() so that time isn't perceived to go backwards. (3) Simplifying rxrpc_peer_keepalive_worker() by splitting it into two parts: (a) The "worker" function that manages the buckets and the timer. (b) The "dispatch" function that takes the pending peers and potentially transmits a keepalive packet before putting them back in the ring into the slot appropriate to the revised last-Tx time. (4) Taking everything that's pending out of the ring and splicing it into a temporary collector list for processing. In the case that there's been a significant jump forward, the ring gets entirely emptied and then the time base can be warped forward before the peers are processed. The warping can't happen if the ring isn't empty because the slot a peer is in is keepalive-time dependent, relative to the base time. (5) Limit the number of iterations of the bucket array when scanning it. (6) Set the timer to skip any empty slots as there's no point waking up if there's nothing to do yet. This can be triggered by an incoming call from a server after a reboot with AF_RXRPC and AFS built into the kernel causing a peer record to be set up before userspace is started. The system clock is then adjusted by userspace, thereby potentially causing the keepalive generator to have a meltdown - which leads to a message like: watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck for 23s!

2017-11-24rxrpc: Add keepalive for a callDavid Howells1-0/+23
We need to transmit a packet every so often to act as a keepalive for the peer (which has a timeout from the last time it received a packet) and also to prevent any intervening firewalls from closing the route. Do this by resetting a timer every time we transmit a packet. If the timer ever expires, we transmit a PING ACK packet and thereby also elicit a PING RESPONSE ACK from the other side - which prevents our last-rx timeout from expiring. The timer is set to 1/6 of the last-rx timeout so that we can detect the other side going away if it misses 6 replies in a row.

2017-11-24rxrpc: Add a timeout for detecting lost ACKs/lost DATADavid Howells1-2/+18
Add an extra timeout that is set/updated when we send a DATA packet that has the request-ack flag set. This allows us to detect if we don't get an ACK in response to the latest flagged packet. The ACK packet is adjudged to have been lost if it doesn't turn up within 2*RTT of the transmission. If the timeout occurs, we schedule the sending of a PING ACK to find out the state of the other side. If a new DATA packet is ready to go sooner, we cancel the sending of the ping and set the request-ack flag on that instead. If we get back a PING-RESPONSE ACK that indicates a lower tx_top than what we had at the time of the ping transmission, we adjudge all the DATA packets sent between the response tx_top and the ping-time tx_top to have been lost and retransmit immediately. Rather than sending a PING ACK, we could just pick a DATA packet and speculatively retransmit that with request-ack set. It should result in either a REQUESTED ACK or a DUPLICATE ACK which we can then use in lieu the a PING-RESPONSE ACK mentioned above. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

Fix call expiry handling in the following ways (1) If all the request data from a client call is acked, don't send a follow up IDLE ACK with firstPacket == 1 and previousPacket == 0 as this appears to fool some servers into thinking everything has been accepted. (2) Never send an abort back to the server once it has ACK'd all the request packets; rather just try to reuse the channel for the next call. The first request DATA packet of the next call on the same channel will implicitly ACK the entire reply of the dead call - even if we haven't transmitted it yet. (3) Don't send RX_CALL_TIMEOUT in an ABORT packet, librx uses abort codes to pass local errors to the caller in addition to remote errors, and this is meant to be local only. The following also need to be addressed in future patches: (4) Service calls should send PING ACKs as 'keep alives' if the server is still processing the call. (5) VERSION REPLY packets should be sent to the peers of service connections to act as keep-alives. This is used to keep firewall routes in place. The AFS CM should enable this.

2017-11-02rxrpc: Fix a null ptr deref in rxrpc_fill_out_ack()David Howells1-4/+5
rxrpc_fill_out_ack() needs to be passed the connection pointer from its caller rather than using call->conn as the call may be disconnected in parallel with it, clearing call->conn, leading to: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000010 IP: rxrpc_send_ack_packet+0x231/0x6a4 Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
2017-08-29rxrpc: Fix IPv6 supportDavid Howells1-1/+1
Fix IPv6 support in AF_RXRPC in the following ways: (1) When extracting the address from a received IPv4 packet, if the local transport socket is open for IPv6 then fill out the sockaddr_rxrpc struct for an IPv4-mapped-to-IPv6 AF_INET6 transport address instead of an AF_INET one. (2) When sending CHALLENGE or RESPONSE packets, the transport length needs to be set from the sockaddr_rxrpc::transport_len field rather than sizeof() on the IPv4 transport address. (3) When processing an IPv4 ICMP packet received by an IPv6 socket, set up the address correctly before searching for the affected peer. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
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>
2016-09-29rxrpc: 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>
2016-09-29rxrpc: 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>
2016-09-24rxrpc: 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.

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

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.

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.

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: 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>
