2019-01-15Revert "rxrpc: Allow failed client calls to be retried"David Howells5-191/+24
The changes introduced to allow rxrpc calls to be retried creates an issue when it comes to refcounting afs_call structs. The problem is that when rxrpc_send_data() queues the last packet for an asynchronous call, the following sequence can occur: (1) The notify_end_tx callback is invoked which causes the state in the afs_call to be changed from AFS_CALL_CL_REQUESTING or AFS_CALL_SV_REPLYING. (2) afs_deliver_to_call() can then process event notifications from rxrpc on the async_work queue. (3) Delivery of events, such as an abort from the server, can cause the afs_call state to be changed to AFS_CALL_COMPLETE on async_work. (4) For an asynchronous call, afs_process_async_call() notes that the call is complete and tried to clean up all the refs on async_work. (5) rxrpc_send_data() might return the amount of data transferred (success) or an error - which could in turn reflect a local error or a received error. Synchronising the clean up after rxrpc_kernel_send_data() returns an error with the asynchronous cleanup is then tricky to get right. Mostly revert commit c038a58ccfd6704d4d7d60ed3d6a0fca13cf13a4. The two API functions the original commit added aren't currently used. This makes rxrpc_kernel_send_data() always return successfully if it queued the data it was given. Note that this doesn't affect synchronous calls since their Rx notification function merely pokes a wait queue and does not refcounting. The asynchronous call notification function *has* to do refcounting and pass a ref over the work item to avoid the need to sync the workqueue in call cleanup.

2018-11-15rxrpc: Fix life checkDavid Howells1-4/+23
The life-checking function, which is used by kAFS to make sure that a call is still live in the event of a pending signal, only samples the received packet serial number counter; it doesn't actually provoke a change in the counter, rather relying on the server to happen to give us a packet in the time window. Fix this by adding a function to force a ping to be transmitted. kAFS then keeps track of whether there's been a stall, and if so, uses the new function to ping the server, resetting the timeout to allow the reply to come back. If there's a stall, a ping and the call is *still* stalled in the same place after another period, then the call will be aborted.

2018-11-02rxrpc: Fix lockup due to no error backoff after ack transmit errorDavid Howells3-8/+46
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.

2018-10-23Revert "net: simplify sock_poll_wait"Karsten Graul1-1/+1
This reverts commit dd979b4df817e9976f18fb6f9d134d6bc4a3c317. This broke tcp_poll for SMC fallback: An AF_SMC socket establishes an internal TCP socket for the initial handshake with the remote peer. Whenever the SMC connection can not be established this TCP socket is used as a fallback. All socket operations on the SMC socket are then forwarded to the TCP socket. In case of poll, the file->private_data pointer references the SMC socket because the TCP socket has no file assigned. This causes tcp_poll to wait on the wrong socket.

2018-10-08rxrpc: Fix the packet reception routineDavid Howells6-50/+105
The rxrpc_input_packet() function and its call tree was built around the assumption that data_ready() handler called from UDP to inform a kernel service that there is data to be had was non-reentrant. This means that certain locking could be dispensed with. This, however, turns out not to be the case with a multi-queue network card that can deliver packets to multiple cpus simultaneously. Each of those cpus can be in the rxrpc_input_packet() function at the same time. Fix by adding or changing some structure members: (1) Add peer->rtt_input_lock to serialise access to the RTT buffer. (2) Make conn->service_id into a 32-bit variable so that it can be cmpxchg'd on all arches. (3) Add call->input_lock to serialise access to the Rx/Tx state. Note that although the Rx and Tx states are (almost) entirely separate, there's no point completing the separation and having separate locks since it's a bi-phasal RPC protocol rather than a bi-direction streaming protocol. Data transmission and data reception do not take place simultaneously on any particular call. and making the following functional changes: (1) In rxrpc_input_data(), hold call->input_lock around the core to prevent simultaneous producing of packets into the Rx ring and updating of tracking state for a particular call. (2) In rxrpc_input_ping_response(), only read call->ping_serial once, and check it before checking RXRPC_CALL_PINGING as that's a cheaper test. The bit test and bit clear can then be combined. No further locking is needed here. (3) In rxrpc_input_ack(), take call->input_lock after we've parsed much of the ACK packet. The superseded ACK check is then done both before and after the lock is taken. The handing of ackinfo data is split, parsing before the lock is taken and processing with it held. This is keyed on rxMTU being non-zero. Congestion management is also done within the locked section. (4) In rxrpc_input_ackall(), take call->input_lock around the Tx window rotation. The ACKALL packet carries no information and is only really useful after all packets have been transmitted since it's imprecise. (5) In rxrpc_input_implicit_end_call(), we use rx->incoming_lock to prevent calls being simultaneously implicitly ended on two cpus and also to prevent any races with incoming call setup. (6) In rxrpc_input_packet(), use cmpxchg() to effect the service upgrade on a connection. It is only permitted to happen once for a connection. (7) In rxrpc_new_incoming_call(), we have to recheck the routing inside rx->incoming_lock to see if someone else set up the call, connection or peer whilst we were getting there. We can't trust the values from the earlier routing check unless we pin refs on them - which we want to avoid. Further, we need to allow for an incoming call to have its state changed on another CPU between us making it live and us adjusting it because the conn is now in the RXRPC_CONN_SERVICE state. (8) In rxrpc_peer_add_rtt(), take peer->rtt_input_lock around the access to the RTT buffer. Don't need to lock around setting peer->rtt. For reference, the inventory of state-accessing or state-altering functions used by the packet input procedure is: > rxrpc_input_packet() * PACKET CHECKING * ROUTING > rxrpc_post_packet_to_local() > rxrpc_find_connection_rcu() - uses RCU > rxrpc_lookup_peer_rcu() - uses RCU > rxrpc_find_service_conn_rcu() - uses RCU > idr_find() - uses RCU * CONNECTION-LEVEL PROCESSING - Service upgrade - Can only happen once per conn !

2018-10-08rxrpc: Use the UDP encap_rcv hookDavid Howells3-44/+35
Use the UDP encap_rcv hook to cut the bit out of the rxrpc packet reception in which a packet is placed onto the UDP receive queue and then immediately removed again by rxrpc. Going via the queue in this manner seems like it should be unnecessary. This does, however, require the invention of a value to place in encap_type as that's one of the conditions to switch packets out to the encap_rcv hook. Possibly the value doesn't actually matter for anything other than sockopts on the UDP socket, which aren't accessible outside of rxrpc anyway. This seems to cut a bit of time out of the time elapsed between each sk_buff being timestamped and turning up in rxrpc (the final number in the following trace excerpts). I measured this by making the rxrpc_rx_packet trace point print the time elapsed between the skb being timestamped and the current time (in ns), e.g.: ... 424.278721: rxrpc_rx_packet: ...

2018-10-05rxrpc: Fix the data_ready handlerDavid Howells2-35/+44
Fix the rxrpc_data_ready() function to pick up all packets and to not miss any. There are two problems: (1) The sk_data_ready pointer on the UDP socket is set *after* it is bound. This means that it's open for business before we're ready to dequeue packets and there's a tiny window exists in which a packet can sneak onto the receive queue, but we never know about it. Fix this by setting the pointers on the socket prior to binding it. (2) skb_recv_udp() will return an error (such as ENETUNREACH) if there was an error on the transmission side, even though we set the sk_error_report hook. Because rxrpc_data_ready() returns immediately in such a case, it never actually removes its packet from the receive queue. Fix this by abstracting out the UDP dequeuing and checksumming into a separate function that keeps hammering on skb_recv_udp() until it returns -EAGAIN, passing the packets extracted to the remainder of the function. and two potential problems: (3) It might be possible in some circumstances or in the future for packets to be being added to the UDP receive queue whilst rxrpc is running consuming them, so the data_ready() handler might get called less often than once per packet. Allow for this by fully draining the queue on each call as (2). (4) If a packet fails the checksum check, the code currently returns after discarding the packet without checking for more. Allow for this by fully draining the queue on each call as (2).

2018-10-04rxrpc: Allow the reply time to be obtained on a client callDavid Howells1-0/+14
Allow the epoch value to be queried on a server connection. This is in the rxrpc header of every packet for use in routing and is derived from the client's state. It's also not supposed to change unless the client gets restarted. AFS can make use of this information to deduce whether a fileserver has been restarted because the fileserver makes client calls to the filesystem driver's cache manager to send notifications (ie. callback breaks) about conflicting changes from other clients. These convey the fileserver's own epoch value back to the filesystem. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

2018-10-04rxrpc: Use IPv4 addresses throught the IPv6David Howells4-22/+17
AF_RXRPC opens an IPv6 socket through which to send and receive network packets, both IPv6 and IPv4. It currently turns AF_INET addresses into AF_INET-as-AF_INET6 addresses based on an assumption that this was necessary; on further inspection of the code, however, it turns out that the IPv6 code just farms packets aimed at AF_INET addresses out to the IPv4 code.

2018-09-28rxrpc: Fix error distributionDavid Howells6-61/+15
Fix error distribution by immediately delivering the errors to all the affected calls rather than deferring them to a worker thread. The problem with the latter is that retries and things can happen in the meantime when we want to stop that sooner. To this end: (1) Stop the error distributor from removing calls from the error_targets list so that peer->lock isn't needed to synchronise against other adds and removals. (2) Require the peer's error_targets list to be accessed with RCU, thereby avoiding the need to take peer->lock over distribution. (3) Don't attempt to affect a call's state if it is already marked complete. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
2018-09-28rxrpc: Fix transport sockopts to get IPv4 errors on an IPv6 socketDavid Howells1-10/+13
It seems that enabling IPV6_RECVERR on an IPv6 socket doesn't also turn on IP_RECVERR, so neither local errors nor ICMP-transported remote errors from IPv4 peer addresses are returned to the AF_RXRPC protocol. Make the sockopt setting code in rxrpc_open_socket() fall through from the AF_INET6 case to the AF_INET case to turn on all the AF_INET options too in the AF_INET6 case.

2018-09-28rxrpc: Make service call handling more robustDavid Howells5-60/+38
Make the following changes to improve the robustness of the code that sets up a new service call: (1) Cache the rxrpc_sock struct obtained in rxrpc_data_ready() to do a service ID check and pass that along to rxrpc_new_incoming_call(). This means that I can remove the check from rxrpc_new_incoming_call() without the need to worry about the socket attached to the local endpoint getting replaced - which would invalidate the check. (2) Cache the rxrpc_peer struct, thereby allowing the peer search to be done once. The peer is passed to rxrpc_new_incoming_call(), thereby saving the need to repeat the search. This also reduces the possibility of rxrpc_publish_service_conn() BUG()'ing due to the detection of a duplicate connection, despite the initial search done by rxrpc_find_connection_rcu() having turned up nothing. This BUG() shouldn't ever get hit since rxrpc_data_ready() *should* be non-reentrant and the result of the initial search should still hold true, but it has proven possible to hit. I *think* this may be due to __rxrpc_lookup_peer_rcu() cutting short the iteration over the hash table if it finds a matching peer with a zero usage count, but I don't know for sure since it's only ever been hit once that I know of. Another possibility is that a bug in rxrpc_data_ready() that checked the wrong byte in the header for the RXRPC_CLIENT_INITIATED flag might've let through a packet that caused a spurious and invalid call to be set up. That is addressed in another patch. (3) Fix __rxrpc_lookup_peer_rcu() to skip peer records that have a zero usage count rather than stopping and returning not found, just in case there's another peer record behind it in the bucket. (4) Don't search the peer records in rxrpc_alloc_incoming_call(), but rather either use the peer cached in (2) or, if one wasn't found, preemptively install a new one.

2018-09-28rxrpc: Emit BUSY packets when supposed to rather than ABORTsDavid Howells4-18/+26
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.

(4) When about to transmit an ACK or DATA packet, record the Tx timestamp before only; don't update the timestamp afterwards. (5) Switch the ordering between recording the serial and recording the timestamp to always set the serial number first. The serial number shouldn't be seen referenced by an ACK packet until we've transmitted the packet bearing it - so in the Rx path, we don't need the timestamp until we've checked the serial number.

2018-08-08rxrpc: Fix the keepalive generator [ver #2]David Howells7-89/+109
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!

2018-08-01rxrpc: Transmit more ACKs during data receptionDavid Howells2-0/+18
Immediately flush any outstanding ACK on entry to rxrpc_recvmsg_data() - which transfers data to the target buffers - if we previously had an Rx underrun (ie. we returned -EAGAIN because we ran out of received data). This lets the server know what we've managed to receive something. Also flush any outstanding ACK after calling the function if it hit -EAGAIN to let the server know we processed some data. It might be better to send more ACKs, possibly on a time-based scheme, but that needs some more consideration. With this and some additional AFS patches, it is possible to get large unencrypted O_DIRECT reads to be almost as fast as NFS over TCP. It looks like it might be theoretically possible to improve performance yet more for a server running a single operation as investigation of packet timestamps indicates that the server keeps stalling. The issue appears to be that rxrpc runs in to trouble with ACK packets getting batched together (up to ~32 at a time) somewhere between the IP transmit queue on the client and the ethernet receive queue on the server. However, this case isn't too much of a worry as even a lightly loaded server should be receiving sufficient packet flux to flush the ACK packets to the UDP socket.
