rxrpc: Fix service endpoint expiry

2017-11-24T10:18:42Z

RxRPC service endpoints expire like they're supposed to by the following means: (1) Mark dead rxrpc_net structs (with ->live) rather than twiddling the global service conn timeout, otherwise the first rxrpc_net struct to die will cause connections on all others to expire immediately from then on. (2) Mark local service endpoints for which the socket has been closed (->service_closed) so that the expiration timeout can be much shortened for service and client connections going through that endpoint. (3) rxrpc_put_service_conn() needs to schedule the reaper when the usage count reaches 1, not 0, as idle conns have a 1 count. (4) The accumulator for the earliest time we might want to schedule for should be initialised to jiffies + MAX_JIFFY_OFFSET, not ULONG_MAX as the comparison functions use signed arithmetic. (5) Simplify the expiration handling, adding the expiration value to the idle timestamp each time rather than keeping track of the time in the past before which the idle timestamp must go to be expired. This is much easier to read. (6) Ignore the timeouts if the net namespace is dead. (7) Restart the service reaper work item rather the client reaper. Signed-off-by: David Howells

rxrpc: Add keepalive for a call

2017-11-24T10:18:42Z

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. This is particularly necessary for servers where the processing of the service function may take a significant amount of time. Signed-off-by: David Howells

rxrpc: Add a timeout for detecting lost ACKs/lost DATA

2017-11-24T10:18:42Z

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

rxrpc: Fix call timeouts

2017-11-24T10:18:41Z

Fix the rxrpc call expiration timeouts and make them settable from userspace. By analogy with other rx implementations, there should be three timeouts: (1) "Normal timeout" This is set for all calls and is triggered if we haven't received any packets from the peer in a while. It is measured from the last time we received any packet on that call. This is not reset by any connection packets (such as CHALLENGE/RESPONSE packets). If a service operation takes a long time, the server should generate PING ACKs at a duration that's substantially less than the normal timeout so is to keep both sides alive. This is set at 1/6 of normal timeout. (2) "Idle timeout" This is set only for a service call and is triggered if we stop receiving the DATA packets that comprise the request data. It is measured from the last time we received a DATA packet. (3) "Hard timeout" This can be set for a call and specified the maximum lifetime of that call. It should not be specified by default. Some operations (such as volume transfer) take a long time. Allow userspace to set/change the timeouts on a call with sendmsg, using a control message: RXRPC_SET_CALL_TIMEOUTS The data to the message is a number of 32-bit words, not all of which need be given: u32 hard_timeout; /* sec from first packet */ u32 idle_timeout; /* msec from packet Rx */ u32 normal_timeout; /* msec from data Rx */ This can be set in combination with any other sendmsg() that affects a call.

rxrpc: Add service upgrade support for client connections

2017-06-05T13:30:49Z

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

rxrpc: Trace client call connection

2017-04-06T10:10:41Z

Add a tracepoint (rxrpc_connect_call) to log the combination of rxrpc_call pointer, afs_call pointer/user data and wire call parameters to make it easier to match the tracebuffer contents to captured network packets. Signed-off-by: David Howells

rxrpc: Trace changes in a call's receive window size

rxrpc: Trace protocol errors in received packets

2017-04-06T10:09:39Z

Add a tracepoint (rxrpc_rx_proto) to record protocol errors in received packets. The following changes are made: (1) Add a function, __rxrpc_abort_eproto(), to note a protocol error on a call and mark the call aborted. This is wrapped by rxrpc_abort_eproto() that makes the why string usable in trace. (2) Add trace_rxrpc_rx_proto() or rxrpc_abort_eproto() to protocol error generation points, replacing rxrpc_abort_call() with the latter. (3) Only send an abort packet in rxkad_verify_packet*() if we actually managed to abort the call. Note that a trace event is also emitted if a kernel user (e.g. afs) tries to send data through a call when it's not in the transmission phase, though it's not technically a receive event.

rxrpc: Fix deadlock between call creation and sendmsg/recvmsg

2017-03-01T17:50:58Z

All the routines by which rxrpc is accessed from the outside are serialised by means of the socket lock (sendmsg, recvmsg, bind, rxrpc_kernel_begin_call(), ...) and this presents a problem: (1) If a number of calls on the same socket are in the process of connection to the same peer, a maximum of four concurrent live calls are permitted before further calls need to wait for a slot. (2) If a call is waiting for a slot, it is deep inside sendmsg() or rxrpc_kernel_begin_call() and the entry function is holding the socket lock. (3) sendmsg() and recvmsg() or the in-kernel equivalents are prevented from servicing the other calls as they need to take the socket lock to do so. (4) The socket is stuck until a call is aborted and makes its slot available to the waiter. Fix this by: (1) Provide each call with a mutex ('user_mutex') that arbitrates access by the users of rxrpc separately for each specific call. (2) Make rxrpc_sendmsg() and rxrpc_recvmsg() unlock the socket as soon as they've got a call and taken its mutex. Note that I'm returning EWOULDBLOCK from recvmsg() if MSG_DONTWAIT is set but someone else has the lock. Should I instead only return EWOULDBLOCK if there's nothing currently to be done on a socket, and sleep in this particular instance because there is something to be done, but we appear to be blocked by the interrupt handler doing its ping? (3) Make rxrpc_new_client_call() unlock the socket after allocating a new call, locking its user mutex and adding it to the socket's call tree. The call is returned locked so that sendmsg() can add data to it immediately. From the moment the call is in the socket tree, it is subject to access by sendmsg() and recvmsg() - even if it isn't connected yet. (4) Lock new service calls in the UDP data_ready handler (in rxrpc_new_incoming_call()) because they may already be in the socket's tree and the data_ready handler makes them live immediately if a user ID has already been preassigned. Note that the new call is locked before any notifications are sent that it is live, so doing mutex_trylock() *ought* to always succeed. Userspace is prevented from doing sendmsg() on calls that are in a too-early state in rxrpc_do_sendmsg(). (5) Make rxrpc_new_incoming_call() return the call with the user mutex held so that a ping can be scheduled immediately under it. Note that it might be worth moving the ping call into rxrpc_new_incoming_call() and then we can drop the mutex there. (6) Make rxrpc_accept_call() take the lock on the call it is accepting and release the socket after adding the call to the socket's tree. This is slightly tricky as we've dequeued the call by that point and have to requeue it. Note that requeuing emits a trace event. (7) Make rxrpc_kernel_send_data() and rxrpc_kernel_recv_data() take the new mutex immediately and don't bother with the socket mutex at all. This patch has the nice bonus that calls on the same socket are now to some extent parallelisable. Note that we might want to move rxrpc_service_prealloc() calls out from the socket lock and give it its own lock, so that we don't hang progress in other calls because we're waiting for the allocator. We probably also want to avoid calling rxrpc_notify_socket() from within the socket lock (rxrpc_accept_call()). Signed-off-by: David Howells Tested-by: Marc Dionne Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
