David Howells 5481fc6eb8 afs: Fix hang on rmmod due to outstanding timer
The fileserver probe timer, net->fs_probe_timer, isn't cancelled when
the kafs module is being removed and so the count it holds on
net->servers_outstanding doesn't get dropped..

This causes rmmod to wait forever.  The hung process shows a stack like:

	afs_purge_servers+0x1b5/0x23c [kafs]
	afs_net_exit+0x44/0x6e [kafs]
	ops_exit_list+0x72/0x93
	unregister_pernet_operations+0x14c/0x1ba
	unregister_pernet_subsys+0x1d/0x2a
	afs_exit+0x29/0x6f [kafs]
	__do_sys_delete_module.isra.0+0x1a2/0x24b
	do_syscall_64+0x51/0x95
	entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xa9

Fix this by:

 (1) Attempting to cancel the probe timer and, if successful, drop the
     count that the timer was holding.

 (2) Make the timer function just drop the count and not schedule the
     prober if the afs portion of net namespace is being destroyed.

Also, whilst we're at it, make the following changes:

 (3) Initialise net->servers_outstanding to 1 and decrement it before
     waiting on it so that it doesn't generate wake up events by being
     decremented to 0 until we're cleaning up.

 (4) Switch the atomic_dec() on ->servers_outstanding for ->fs_timer in
     afs_purge_servers() to use the helper function for that.

David Howells 8409f67b64 afs: Adjust the fileserver rotation algorithm to reprobe/retry more quickly
Adjust the fileserver rotation algorithm so that if we've tried all the
addresses on a server (cumulatively over multiple operations) until we've
run out of untried addresses, immediately reprobe all that server's
interfaces and retry the op at least once before we move onto the next
server.

David Howells f3c130e6e6 afs: Don't use probe running state to make decisions outside probe code
Don't use the running state for fileserver probes to make decisions about
which server to use as the state is cleared at the start of a probe and
also intermediate values might be misleading.

Instead, add a separate 'latest known' rtt in the afs_server struct and a
flag to indicate if the server is known to be responding and update these
as and when we know what to change them to.

David Howells f6cbb368bc afs: Actively poll fileservers to maintain NAT or firewall openings
When an AFS client accesses a file, it receives a limited-duration callback
promise that the server will notify it if another client changes a file.
This callback duration can be a few hours in length.

If a client mounts a volume and then an application prevents it from being
unmounted, say by chdir'ing into it, but then does nothing for some time,
the rxrpc_peer record will expire and rxrpc-level keepalive will cease.

If there is NAT or a firewall between the client and the server, the route
back for the server may close after a comparatively short duration, meaning
that attempts by the server to notify the client may then bounce.

The client, however, may (so far as it knows) still have a valid unexpired
promise and will then rely on its cached data and will not see changes made
on the server by a third party until it incidentally rechecks the status or
the promise needs renewal.

To deal with this, the client needs to regularly probe the server.  This
has two effects: firstly, it keeps a route open back for the server, and
secondly, it causes the server to disgorge any notifications that got
queued up because they couldn't be sent.

Fix this by adding a mechanism to emit regular probes.

Two levels of probing are made available: Under normal circumstances the
'slow' queue will be used for a fileserver - this just probes the preferred
address once every 5 mins or so; however, if server fails to respond to any
probes, the server will shift to the 'fast' queue from which all its
interfaces will be probed every 30s.  When it finally responds, the record
will switch back to the slow queue.

Further notes:

 (1) Probing is now no longer driven from the fileserver rotation
     algorithm.

 (2) Probes are dispatched to all interfaces on a fileserver when that an
     afs_server object is set up to record it.

 (3) The afs_server object is removed from the probe queues when we start
     to probe it.  afs_is_probing_server() returns true if it's not listed
     - ie. it's undergoing probing.

 (4) The afs_server object is added back on to the probe queue when the
     final outstanding probe completes, but the probed_at time is set when
     we're about to launch a probe so that it's not dependent on the probe
     duration.

 (5) The timer and the work item added for this must be handed a count on
     net->servers_outstanding, which they hand on or release.  This makes
     sure that network namespace cleanup waits for them.

David Howells 977e5f8ed0 afs: Split the usage count on struct afs_server
Split the usage count on the afs_server struct to have an active count that
registers who's actually using it separately from the reference count on
the object.

This allows a future patch to dispatch polling probes without advancing the
"unuse" time into the future each time we emit a probe, which would
otherwise prevent unused server records from expiring.

Included in this:

 (1) The latter part of afs_destroy_server() in which the RCU destruction
     of afs_server objects is invoked and the outstanding server count is
     decremented is split out into __afs_put_server().

 (2) afs_put_server() now calls __afs_put_server() rather then setting the
     management timer.

 (3) The calls begun by afs_fs_give_up_all_callbacks() and
     afs_fs_get_capabilities() can now take a ref on the server record, so
     afs_destroy_server() can just drop its ref and needn't wait for the
     completion of these calls.  They'll put the ref when they're done.

 (4) Because of (3), afs_fs_probe_done() no longer needs to wake up
     afs_destroy_server() with server->probe_outstanding.

 (5) afs_gc_servers can be simplified.  It only needs to check if
     server->active is 0 rather than playing games with the refcount.

 (6) afs_manage_servers() can propose a server for gc if usage == 0 rather
     than if ref == 1.  The gc is effected by (5).

David Howells c410bf0193 rxrpc: Fix the excessive initial retransmission timeout
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.

David Howells 9efcc4a129 afs: Fix unpinned address list during probing
When it's probing all of a fileserver's interfaces to find which one is
best to use, afs_do_probe_fileserver() takes a lock on the server record
and notes the pointer to the address list.

It doesn't, however, pin the address list, so as soon as it drops the
lock, there's nothing to stop the address list from being freed under
us.

Fix this by taking a ref on the address list inside the locked section
and dropping it at the end of the function.

David Howells 4584ae96ae afs: Fix missing net error handling
kAFS can be given certain network errors (EADDRNOTAVAIL, EHOSTDOWN and
ERFKILL) that it doesn't handle in its server/address rotation algorithms.
They cause the probing and rotation to abort immediately rather than
rotating.

Fix this by:

 (1) Abstracting out the error prioritisation from the VL and FS rotation
     algorithms into a common function and expand usage into the server
     probing code.

     When multiple errors are available, this code selects the one we'd
     prefer to return.

 (2) Add handling for EADDRNOTAVAIL, EHOSTDOWN and ERFKILL.

This alleviates the problem whereby attempting to access a new server can

all servers and addresses until it finds one that responds.
