rxrpc, afs: Fix missing error pointer check after rxrpc_kernel_lookup_peer()

2026-03-19T15:08:14Z

[ Upstream commit 4245a79003adf30e67f8e9060915bd05cb31d142 ] rxrpc_kernel_lookup_peer() can also return error pointers in addition to NULL, so just checking for NULL is not sufficient. Fix this by: (1) Changing rxrpc_kernel_lookup_peer() to return -ENOMEM rather than NULL on allocation failure. (2) Making the callers in afs use IS_ERR() and PTR_ERR() to pass on the error code returned.

afs: Use the per-peer app data provided by rxrpc

2025-03-10T09:47:15Z

Make use of the per-peer application data that rxrpc now allows the application to store on the rxrpc_peer struct to hold a back pointer to the afs_server record that peer represents an endpoint for. Then, when a call comes in to the AFS cache manager, this can be used to map it to the correct server record rather than having to use a UUID-to-server mapping table and having to do an additional lookup.

afs: Fold the afs_addr_cursor struct in

Fold the afs_addr_cursor struct into the afs_operation struct and the afs_vl_cursor struct and fold its operations into their callers also. Signed-off-by: David Howells cc: Marc Dionne cc: linux-afs@lists.infradead.org

afs: Use peer + service_id as call address

2023-12-24T15:22:55Z

Use the rxrpc_peer plus the service ID as the call address instead of passing in a sockaddr_srx down to rxrpc. The peer record is obtained by using rxrpc_kernel_get_peer(). This avoids the need to repeatedly look up the peer and allows rxrpc to hold on to resources for it. Signed-off-by: David Howells cc: Marc Dionne cc: linux-afs@lists.infradead.org

afs: Simplify error handling

2023-12-24T15:22:53Z

Simplify error handling a bit by moving it from the afs_addr_cursor struct to the afs_operation and afs_vl_cursor structs and using the error prioritisation function for accumulating errors from multiple sources (AFS tries to rotate between multiple fileservers, some of which may be inaccessible or in some state of offlinedness).

rxrpc, afs: Allow afs to pin rxrpc_peer objects

2023-12-24T15:22:50Z

Change rxrpc's API such that: (1) A new function, rxrpc_kernel_lookup_peer(), is provided to look up an rxrpc_peer record for a remote address and a corresponding function, rxrpc_kernel_put_peer(), is provided to dispose of it again. (2) When setting up a call, the rxrpc_peer object used during a call is now passed in rather than being set up by rxrpc_connect_call(). For afs, this meenat passing it to rxrpc_kernel_begin_call() rather than the full address (the service ID then has to be passed in as a separate parameter). (3) A new function, rxrpc_kernel_remote_addr(), is added so that afs can get a pointer to the transport address for display purposed, and another, rxrpc_kernel_remote_srx(), to gain a pointer to the full rxrpc address. (4) The function to retrieve the RTT from a call, rxrpc_kernel_get_srtt(), is then altered to take a peer. This now returns the RTT or -1 if there are insufficient samples. (5) Rename rxrpc_kernel_get_peer() to rxrpc_kernel_call_get_peer(). (6) Provide a new function, rxrpc_kernel_get_peer(), to get a ref on a peer the caller already has. This allows the afs filesystem to pin the rxrpc_peer records that it is using, allowing faster lookups and pointer comparisons rather than comparing sockaddr_rxrpc contents. It also makes it easier to get hold of the RTT. The following changes are made to afs: (1) The addr_list struct's addrs[] elements now hold a peer struct pointer and a service ID rather than a sockaddr_rxrpc. (2) When displaying the transport address, rxrpc_kernel_remote_addr() is used. (3) The port arg is removed from afs_alloc_addrlist() since it's always overridden. (4) afs_merge_fs_addr4() and afs_merge_fs_addr6() do peer lookup and may now return an error that must be handled. (5) afs_find_server() now takes a peer pointer to specify the address. (6) afs_find_server(), afs_compare_fs_alists() and afs_merge_fs_addr[46]{} now do peer pointer comparison rather than address comparison.
