With support from the master key option in the previous commit, it
becomes easy to make frequent updates/exchanges of session keys between
authenticated cluster nodes.
Basically, there are two situations where the key exchange will take in
place:
- When a new node joins the cluster (with the master key), it will need
to get its peer's TX key, so that be able to decrypt further messages
from that peer.
- When a new session key is generated (by either user manual setting or
later automatic rekeying feature), the key will be distributed to all
peer nodes in the cluster.
A key to be exchanged is encapsulated in the data part of a 'MSG_CRYPTO
/KEY_DISTR_MSG' TIPC v2 message, then xmit-ed as usual and encrypted by
using the master key before sending out. Upon receipt of the message it
will be decrypted in the same way as regular messages, then attached as
the sender's RX key in the receiver node.
In this way, the key exchange is reliable by the link layer, as well as
security, integrity and authenticity by the crypto layer.
Also, the forward security will be easily achieved by user changing the
master key actively but this should not be required very frequently.
The key exchange feature is independent on the presence of a master key
Note however that the master key still is needed for new nodes to be
able to join the cluster. It is also optional, and can be turned off/on
via the sysfs: 'net/tipc/key_exchange_enabled' [default 1: enabled].
Backward compatibility is guaranteed because for nodes that do not have
master key support, key exchange using master key ie. tx_key = 0 if any
will be shortly discarded at the message validation step. In other
words, the key exchange feature will be automatically disabled to those
nodes.
v2: fix the "implicit declaration of function 'tipc_crypto_key_flush'"
error in node.c. The function only exists when built with the TIPC
"CONFIG_TIPC_CRYPTO" option.
v3: use 'info->extack' for a message emitted due to netlink operations
instead (- David's comment).

In some environment, broadcast traffic is suppressed at high rate (i.e.
a kind of bandwidth limit setting). When it is applied, TIPC broadcast
can still run successfully. However, when it comes to a high load, some
packets will be dropped first and TIPC tries to retransmit them but the
packet retransmission is intentionally broadcast too, so making things
worse and not helpful at all.
This commit enables the broadcast retransmission via unicast which only
retransmits packets to the specific peer that has really reported a gap
i.e. not broadcasting to all nodes in the cluster, so will prevent from
being suppressed, and also reduce some overheads on the other peers due
to duplicates, finally improve the overall TIPC broadcast performance.
Note: the functionality can be turned on/off via the sysctl file:
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/tipc/bc_retruni
echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/tipc/bc_retruni
Default is '0', i.e. the broadcast retransmission still works as usual.

This commit offers an option to encrypt and authenticate all messaging,
including the neighbor discovery messages. The currently most advanced
algorithm supported is the AEAD AES-GCM (like IPSec or TLS). All
encryption/decryption is done at the bearer layer, just before leaving
or after entering TIPC.
Supported features:
- Encryption & authentication of all TIPC messages (header + data);
- Two symmetric-key modes: Cluster and Per-node;
- Automatic key switching;
- Key-expired revoking (sequence number wrapped);
- Lock-free encryption/decryption (RCU);
- Asynchronous crypto, Intel AES-NI supported;
- Multiple cipher transforms;
- Logs & statistics;
Two key modes:
- Cluster key mode: One single key is used for both TX & RX in all
nodes in the cluster.
- Per-node key mode: Each nodes in the cluster has one specific TX key.
For RX, a node requires its peers' TX key to be able to decrypt the
messages from those peers.
Key setting from user-space is performed via netlink by a user program
(e.g. the iproute2 'tipc' tool).
Internal key state machine:
Attach Align(RX)
+-+ +-+
| V | V
+---------+ Attach +---------+
| IDLE |---------------->| PENDING |(user = 0)
+---------+ +---------+
A A Switch| A
| | | |
| | Free(switch/revoked) | |
(Free)| +----------------------+ | |Timeout
| (TX) | | |(RX)
| | | |
| | v |
+---------+ Switch +---------+
| PASSIVE |<----------------| ACTIVE |
+---------+ (RX) +---------+
(user = 1) (user >= 1)
The number of TFMs is 10 by default and can be changed via the procfs
'net/tipc/max_tfms'. At this moment, as for simplicity, this file is
also used to print the crypto statistics at runtime:
echo 0xfff1 > /proc/sys/net/tipc/max_tfms
The patch defines a new TIPC version (v7) for the encryption message (-
backward compatibility as well). The message is basically encapsulated
as follows:
+----------------------------------------------------------+
| TIPCv7 encryption | Original TIPCv2 | Authentication |
| header | packet (encrypted) | Tag |
+----------------------------------------------------------+
The throughput is about ~40% for small messages (compared with non-
encryption) and ~9% for large messages. With the support from hardware
crypto i.e. the Intel AES-NI CPU instructions, the throughput increases
upto ~85% for small messages and ~55% for large messages.
By default, the new feature is inactive (i.e. no encryption) until user
sets a key for TIPC. There is however also a new option - "TIPC_CRYPTO"
in the kernel configuration to enable/disable the new code when needed.

In the sysctl code the proc_dointvec_minmax() function is often used to
validate the user supplied value between an allowed range. This
function uses the extra1 and extra2 members from struct ctl_table as
minimum and maximum allowed value.
On sysctl handler declaration, in every source file there are some
readonly variables containing just an integer which address is assigned
to the extra1 and extra2 members, so the sysctl range is enforced.
The special values 0, 1 and INT_MAX are very often used as range
boundary, leading duplication of variables like zero=0, one=1,
int_max=INT_MAX in different source files:
$ git grep -E '\.extra[12].*&(zero|one|int_max)' |wc -l
248
Add a const int array containing the most commonly used values, some
macros to refer more easily to the correct array member, and use them
instead of creating a local one for every object file.

We find that sysctl_tipc_rmem and named_timeout do not have the right minimum
setting. sysctl_tipc_rmem should be larger than zero, like sysctl_tcp_rmem.
And named_timeout as a timeout setting should be not less than zero.

The commit adds the new trace_events for TIPC socket object:
trace_tipc_sk_create()
trace_tipc_sk_poll()
trace_tipc_sk_sendmsg()
trace_tipc_sk_sendmcast()
trace_tipc_sk_sendstream()
trace_tipc_sk_filter_rcv()
trace_tipc_sk_advance_rx()
trace_tipc_sk_rej_msg()
trace_tipc_sk_drop_msg()
trace_tipc_sk_release()
trace_tipc_sk_shutdown()
trace_tipc_sk_overlimit1()
trace_tipc_sk_overlimit2()
Also, enables the traces for the following cases:
- When user creates a TIPC socket;
- When user calls poll() on TIPC socket;
- When user sends a dgram/mcast/stream message.
- When a message is put into the socket 'sk_receive_queue';
- When a message is released from the socket 'sk_receive_queue';
- When a message is rejected (e.g. due to no port, invalid, etc.);
- When a message is dropped (e.g. due to wrong message type);
- When socket is released;
- When socket is shutdown;
- When socket rcvq's allocation is overlimit (> 90%);
- When socket rcvq + bklq's allocation is overlimit (> 90%);
- When the 'TIPC_ERR_OVERLOAD/2' issue happens;
Note:
a) All the socket traces are designed to be able to trace on a specific
socket by either using the 'event filtering' feature on a known socket
'portid' value or the sysctl file:
/proc/sys/net/tipc/sk_filter
The file determines a 'tuple' for what socket should be traced:
(portid, sock type, name type, name lower, name upper)
where:
+ 'portid' is the socket portid generated at socket creating, can be
found in the trace outputs or the 'tipc socket list' command printouts;
+ 'sock type' is the socket type (1 = SOCK_TREAM, ...);
+ 'name type', 'name lower' and 'name upper' are the service name being
connected to or published by the socket.
Value '0' means 'ANY', the default tuple value is (0, 0, 0, 0, 0) i.e.
the traces happen for every sockets with no filter.
b) The 'tipc_sk_overlimit1/2' event is also a conditional trace_event
which happens when the socket receive queue (and backlog queue) is
about to be overloaded, when the queue allocation is > 90%. Then, when
the trace is enabled, the last skbs leading to the TIPC_ERR_OVERLOAD/2
issue can be traced.
The trace event is designed as an 'upper watermark' notification that
the other traces (e.g. 'tipc_sk_advance_rx' vs 'tipc_sk_filter_rcv') or
actions can be triggerred in the meanwhile to see what is going on with
the socket queue.
In addition, the 'trace_tipc_sk_dump()' is also placed at the
'TIPC_ERR_OVERLOAD/2' case, so the socket and last skb can be dumped
for post-analysis.

TIPC name table updates are distributed asynchronously in a cluster,
entailing a risk of certain race conditions. E.g., if two nodes
simultaneously issue conflicting (overlapping) publications, this may
not be detected until both publications have reached a third node, in
which case one of the publications will be silently dropped on that
node. Hence, we end up with an inconsistent name table.
In most cases this conflict is just a temporary race, e.g., one
node is issuing a publication under the assumption that a previous,
conflicting, publication has already been withdrawn by the other node.
However, because of the (rtt related) distributed update delay, this
may not yet hold true on all nodes. The symptom of this failure is a
syslog message: "tipc: Cannot publish {%u,%u,%u}, overlap error".
In this commit we add a resiliency queue at the receiving end of
the name table distributor. When insertion of an arriving publication
fails, we retain it in this queue for a short amount of time, assuming
that another update will arrive very soon and clear the conflict. If so
happens, we insert the publication, otherwise we drop it.
The (configurable) retention value defaults to 2000 ms. Knowing from
experience that the situation described above is extremely rare, there
is no risk that the queue will accumulate any large number of items.

As per feedback from the netdev community, we change the buffer
overflow protection algorithm in receiving sockets so that it
always respects the nominal upper limit set in sk_rcvbuf.
Instead of scaling up from a small sk_rcvbuf value, which leads to
violation of the configured sk_rcvbuf limit, we now calculate the
weighted per-message limit by scaling down from a much bigger value,
still in the same field, according to the importance priority of the
received message.
To allow for administrative tunability of the socket receive buffer
size, we create a tipc_rmem sysctl variable to allow the user to
configure an even bigger value via sysctl command. It is a size of
three (min/default/max) to be consistent with things like tcp_rmem.
By default, the value initialized in tipc_rmem[1] is equal to the
receive socket size needed by a TIPC_CRITICAL_IMPORTANCE message.
This value is also set as the default value of sk_rcvbuf.
