The current 'tipc_wait_for_connect()' function does a wait-loop for the
condition 'sk->sk_state != TIPC_CONNECTING' to conclude if the socket
connecting has done. However, when the condition is met, it returns '0'
even in the case the connecting is actually failed, the socket state is
set to 'TIPC_DISCONNECTING' (e.g. when the server socket has closed..).
This results in a wrong return code for the 'connect()' call from user,
making it believe that the connection is established and go ahead with
building, sending a message, etc. but finally failed e.g. '-EPIPE'.
This commit fixes the issue by changing the wait condition to the
'tipc_sk_connected(sk)', so the function will return '0' only when the
connection is really established. Otherwise, either the socket 'sk_err'
if any or '-ETIMEDOUT'/'-EINTR' will be returned correspondingly.

When a socket is suddenly shutdown or released, it will reject all the
unreceived messages in its receive queue. This applies to a connected
socket too, whereas there is only one 'FIN' message required to be sent
back to its peer in this case.
In case there are many messages in the queue and/or some connections
with such messages are shutdown at the same time, the link layer will
easily get overflowed at the 'TIPC_SYSTEM_IMPORTANCE' backlog level
because of the message rejections. As a result, the link will be taken
down. Moreover, immediately when the link is re-established, the socket
layer can continue to reject the messages and the same issue happens...
The commit refactors the '__tipc_shutdown()' function to only send one
'FIN' in the situation mentioned above. For the connectionless case, it
is unavoidable but usually there is no rejections for such socket
messages because they are 'dest-droppable' by default.
In addition, the new code makes the other socket states clear
(e.g.'TIPC_LISTEN') and treats as a separate case to avoid misbehaving.

In the commit referred to below we eliminated sending of the 'gap'
indicator in regular ACK messages, reserving this to explicit NACK
ditto.
Unfortunately we missed to also eliminate building of the 'gap block'
area in ACK messages. This area is meant to report gaps in the
received packet sequence following the initial gap, so that lost
packets can be retransmitted earlier and received out-of-sequence
packets can be released earlier. However, the interpretation of those
blocks is dependent on a complete and correct sequence of gaps and
acks. Hence, when the initial gap indicator is missing a single gap
block will be interpreted as an acknowledgment of all preceding
packets. This may lead to packets being released prematurely from the
sender's transmit queue, with easily predicatble consequences.
We now fix this by not building any gap block area if there is no
initial gap to report.

When a user message is sent, TIPC will check if the socket has faced a
congestion at link layer. If that happens, it will make a sleep to wait
for the congestion to disappear. This leaves a gap for other users to
take over the socket (e.g. multi threads) since the socket is released
as well. Also, in case of connectionless (e.g. SOCK_RDM), user is free
to send messages to various destinations (e.g. via 'sendto()'), then
the socket's preformatted header has to be updated correspondingly
prior to the actual payload message building.
Unfortunately, the latter action is done before the first action which
causes a condition issue that the destination of a certain message can
be modified incorrectly in the middle, leading to wrong destination
when that message is built. Consequently, when the message is sent to
the link layer, it gets stuck there forever because the peer node will
simply reject it. After a number of retransmission attempts, the link
is eventually taken down and the retransmission failure is reported.
This commit fixes the problem by rearranging the order of actions to
prevent the race condition from occurring, so the message building is
'atomic' and its header will not be modified by anyone.

In commit c55c8edafa ("tipc: smooth change between replicast and
broadcast"), we allow instant switching between replicast and broadcast
by sending a dummy 'SYN' packet on the last used link to synchronize
packets on the links. The 'SYN' message is an object of link congestion
also, so if that happens, a 'SOCK_WAKEUP' will be scheduled to be sent
back to the socket...
However, in that commit, we simply use the same socket 'cong_link_cnt'
counter for both the 'SYN' & normal payload message sending. Therefore,
if both the replicast & broadcast links are congested, the counter will
be not updated correctly but overwritten by the latter congestion.
Later on, when the 'SOCK_WAKEUP' messages are processed, the counter is
reduced one by one and eventually overflowed. Consequently, further
activities on the socket will only wait for the false congestion signal
to disappear but never been met.
Because sending the 'SYN' message is vital for the mechanism, it should
be done anyway. This commit fixes the issue by marking the message with
an error code e.g. 'TIPC_ERR_NO_PORT', so its sending should not face a
link congestion, there is no need to touch the socket 'cong_link_cnt'
either. In addition, in the event of any error (e.g. -ENOBUFS), we will
purge the entire payload message queue and make a return immediately.

The current rbtree for service ranges in the name table is built based
on the 'lower' & 'upper' range values resulting in a flaw in the rbtree
searching. Some issues have been observed in case of range overlapping:
Case #1: unable to withdraw a name entry:
After some name services are bound, all of them are withdrawn by user
but one remains in the name table forever. This corrupts the table and
that service becomes dummy i.e. no real port.
E.g.
/
{22, 22}
/
/
---> {10, 50}
/ \
/ \
{10, 30} {20, 60}
The node {10, 30} cannot be removed since the rbtree searching stops at
the node's ancestor i.e. {10, 50}, so starting from it will never reach
the finding node.
Case #2: failed to send data in some cases:
E.g. Two service ranges: {20, 60}, {10, 50} are bound. The rbtree for
this service will be one of the two cases below depending on the order
of the bindings:
{20, 60} {10, 50} <--
/ \ / \
/ \ / \
{10, 50} NIL <-- NIL {20, 60}
(a) (b)
Now, try to send some data to service {30}, there will be two results:
(a): Failed, no route to host.
(b): Ok.
The reason is that the rbtree searching will stop at the pointing node
as shown above.
Case #3: Same as case #2b above but if the data sending's scope is
local and the {10, 50} is published by a peer node, then it will result
in 'no route to host' even though the other {20, 60} is for example on
the local node which should be able to get the data.
The issues are actually due to the way we built the rbtree. This commit
fixes it by introducing an additional field to each node - named 'max',
which is the largest 'upper' of that node subtree. The 'max' value for
each subtrees will be propagated correctly whenever a node is inserted/
removed or the tree is rebalanced by the augmented rbtree callbacks.
By this way, we can change the rbtree searching appoarch to solve the
issues above. Another benefit from this is that we can now improve the
searching for a next range matching e.g. in case of multicast, so get
rid of the unneeded looping over all nodes in the tree.

We introduce a simple variable window congestion control for links.
The algorithm is inspired by the Reno algorithm, covering both 'slow
start', 'congestion avoidance', and 'fast recovery' modes.
- We introduce hard lower and upper window limits per link, still
different and configurable per bearer type.
- We introduce a 'slow start theshold' variable, initially set to
the maximum window size.
- We let a link start at the minimum congestion window, i.e. in slow
start mode, and then let is grow rapidly (+1 per rceived ACK) until
it reaches the slow start threshold and enters congestion avoidance
mode.
- In congestion avoidance mode we increment the congestion window for
each window-size number of acked packets, up to a possible maximum
equal to the configured maximum window.
- For each non-duplicate NACK received, we drop back to fast recovery
mode, by setting the both the slow start threshold to and the
congestion window to (current_congestion_window / 2).
- If the timeout handler finds that the transmit queue has not moved
since the previous timeout, it drops the link back to slow start
and forces a probe containing the last sent sequence number to the
sent to the peer, so that this can discover the stale situation.
This change does in reality have effect only on unicast ethernet
transport, as we have seen that there is no room whatsoever for
increasing the window max size for the UDP bearer.
For now, we also choose to keep the limits for the broadcast link
unchanged and equal.
This algorithm seems to give a 50-100% throughput improvement for
messages larger than MTU.

When we increase the link tranmsit window we often observe the following
scenario:
1) A STATE message bypasses a sequence of traffic packets and arrives
far ahead of those to the receiver. STATE messages contain a
'peers_nxt_snt' field to indicate which was the last packet sent
from the peer. This mechanism is intended as a last resort for the
receiver to detect missing packets, e.g., during very low traffic
when there is no packet flow to help early loss detection.
3) The receiving link compares the 'peer_nxt_snt' field to its own
'rcv_nxt', finds that there is a gap, and immediately sends a
NACK message back to the peer.
4) When this NACKs arrives at the sender, all the requested
retransmissions are performed, since it is a first-time request.
Just like in the scenario described in the previous commit this leads
to many redundant retransmissions, with decreased throughput as a
consequence.
We fix this by adding two more conditions before we send a NACK in
this sitution. First, the deferred queue must be empty, so we cannot
assume that the potential packet loss has already been detected by
other means. Second, we check the 'peers_snd_nxt' field only in probe/
probe_reply messages, thus turning this into a true mechanism of last
resort as it was really meant to be.

When we increase the link send window we sometimes observe the
following scenario:
1) A packet #N arrives out of order far ahead of a sequence of older
packets which are still under way. The packet is added to the
deferred queue.
2) The missing packets arrive in sequence, and for each 16th of them
an ACK is sent back to the receiver, as it should be.
3) When building those ACK messages, it is checked if there is a gap
between the link's 'rcv_nxt' and the first packet in the deferred
queue. This is always the case until packet number #N-1 arrives, and
a 'gap' indicator is added, effectively turning them into NACK
messages.
4) When those NACKs arrive at the sender, all the requested
retransmissions are done, since it is a first-time request.
This sometimes leads to a huge amount of redundant retransmissions,
causing a drop in max throughput. This problem gets worse when we
in a later commit introduce variable window congestion control,
since it drops the link back to 'fast recovery' much more often
than necessary.
We now fix this by not sending any 'gap' indicator in regular ACK
messages. We already have a mechanism for sending explicit NACKs
in place, and this is sufficient to keep up the packet flow.

Scenario:
1. A client socket initiates a SYN message to a listening socket.
2. The send link is congested, the SYN message is put in the
send link and a wakeup message is put in wakeup queue.
3. The congestion situation is abated, the wakeup message is
pulled out of the wakeup queue. Function tipc_sk_push_backlog()
is called to send out delayed messages by Nagle. However,
the client socket is still in CONNECTING state. So, it sends
the SYN message in the socket write queue to the listening socket
again.
4. The listening socket receives the first SYN message and creates
first server socket. The client socket receives ACK- and establishes
a connection to the first server socket. The client socket closes
its connection with the first server socket.
5. The listening socket receives the second SYN message and creates
second server socket. The second server socket sends ACK- to the
client socket, but it has been closed. It results in connection
reset error when reading from the server socket in user space.
Solution: return from function tipc_sk_push_backlog() immediately
if there is pending SYN message in the socket write queue.

It is observed that TIPC service binding order will not be kept in the
publication event report to user if the service is subscribed after the
bindings.
For example, services are bound by application in the following order:
Server: bound port A to {18888,66,66} scope 2
Server: bound port A to {18888,33,33} scope 2
Now, if a client subscribes to the service range (e.g. {18888, 0-100}),
it will get the 'TIPC_PUBLISHED' events in that binding order only when
the subscription is started before the bindings.
Otherwise, if started after the bindings, the events will arrive in the
opposite order:
Client: received event for published {18888,33,33}
Client: received event for published {18888,66,66}
For the latter case, it is clear that the bindings have existed in the
name table already, so when reported, the events' order will follow the
order of the rbtree binding nodes (- a node with lesser 'lower'/'upper'
range value will be first).
This is correct as we provide the tracking on a specific service status
(available or not), not the relationship between multiple services.
However, some users expect to see the same order of arriving events
irrespective of when the subscription is issued. This turns out to be
easy to fix. We now add functionality to ensure that publication events
always are issued in the same temporal order as the corresponding
bindings were performed.
v2: replace the unnecessary macro - 'publication_after()' with inline
function.

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)

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.

When user sets RX key for a peer not existing on the own node, a new
node entry is needed to which the RX key will be attached. However,
since the peer node address (& capabilities) is unknown at that moment,
only the node-ID is provided, this commit allows the creation of a node
with only the data that we call as “preliminary”.
A preliminary node is not the object of the “tipc_node_find()” but the
“tipc_node_find_by_id()”. Once the first message i.e. LINK_CONFIG comes
from that peer, and is successfully decrypted by the own node, the
actual peer node data will be properly updated and the node will
function as usual.
In addition, the node timer always starts when a node object is created
so if a preliminary node is not used, it will be cleaned up.
The later encryption functions will also use the node timer and be able
to create a preliminary node automatically when needed.

As a need to support the crypto asynchronous operations in the later
commits, apart from the current RCU mechanism for bearer pointer, we
add a 'refcnt' to the bearer object as well.
So, a bearer can be hold via 'tipc_bearer_hold()' without being freed
even though the bearer or interface can be disabled in the meanwhile.
If that happens, the bearer will be released then when the crypto
operation is completed and 'tipc_bearer_put()' is called.

Currently, we scan over all network namespaces at each received
discovery message in order to check if the sending peer might be
present in a host local namespaces.
This is unnecessary since we can assume that a peer will not change its
location during an established session.
We now improve the condition for this testing so that we don't perform
any redundant scans.

When preparing tunnel packets for the link failover or synchronization,
as for the safe algorithm, we added a dummy packet on the pair link but
never sent it out. In the case of failover, the pair link will be reset
anyway. But for link synching, it will always result in retransmission
of the dummy packet after that.
We have also observed that such the retransmission at the early stage
when a new node comes in a large cluster will take some time and hard
to be done, leading to the repeated retransmit failures and the link is
reset.
Since in commit 4929a932be ("tipc: optimize link synching mechanism")
we have already built a dummy 'TUNNEL_PROTOCOL' message on the new link
for the synchronization, there's no need for the dummy on the pair one,
this commit will skip it when the new mechanism takes in place. In case
nothing exists in the pair link's transmq, the link synching will just
start and stop shortly on the peer side.
The patch is backward compatible.

With huge cluster (e.g >200nodes), the amount of that flow:
gap -> retransmit packet -> acked will take time in case of STATE_MSG
dropped/delayed because a lot of traffic. This lead to 1.5 sec tolerance
value criteria made link easy failure around 2nd, 3rd of failed
retransmission attempts.
Instead of re-introduced criteria of 99 faled retransmissions to fix the
issue, we increase failure detection timer to ten times tolerance value.

As mentioned in commit e95584a889 ("tipc: fix unlimited bundling of
small messages"), the current message bundling algorithm is inefficient
that can generate bundles of only one payload message, that causes
unnecessary overheads for both the sender and receiver.
This commit re-designs the 'tipc_msg_make_bundle()' function (now named
as 'tipc_msg_try_bundle()'), so that when a message comes at the first
place, we will just check & keep a reference to it if the message is
suitable for bundling. The message buffer will be put into the link
backlog queue and processed as normal. Later on, when another one comes
we will make a bundle with the first message if possible and so on...
This way, a bundle if really needed will always consist of at least two
payload messages. Otherwise, we let the first buffer go its way without
any need of bundling, so reduce the overheads to zero.
Moreover, since now we have both the messages in hand, we can even
optimize the 'tipc_msg_bundle()' function, make bundle of a very large
(size ~ MSS) and small messages which is not with the current algorithm
e.g. [1400-byte message] + [10-byte message] (MTU = 1500).

We introduce a feature that works like a combination of TCP_NAGLE and
TCP_CORK, but without some of the weaknesses of those. In particular,
we will not observe long delivery delays because of delayed acks, since
the algorithm itself decides if and when acks are to be sent from the
receiving peer.
- The nagle property as such is determined by manipulating a new
'maxnagle' field in struct tipc_sock. If certain conditions are met,
'maxnagle' will define max size of the messages which can be bundled.
If it is set to zero no messages are ever bundled, implying that the
nagle property is disabled.
- A socket with the nagle property enabled enters nagle mode when more
than 4 messages have been sent out without receiving any data message
from the peer.
- A socket leaves nagle mode whenever it receives a data message from
the peer.
In nagle mode, messages smaller than 'maxnagle' are accumulated in the
socket write queue. The last buffer in the queue is marked with a new
'ack_required' bit, which forces the receiving peer to send a CONN_ACK
message back to the sender upon reception.
The accumulated contents of the write queue is transmitted when one of
the following events or conditions occur.
- A CONN_ACK message is received from the peer.
- A data message is received from the peer.
- A SOCK_WAKEUP pseudo message is received from the link level.
- The write queue contains more than 64 1k blocks of data.
- The connection is being shut down.
- There is no CONN_ACK message to expect. I.e., there is currently
no outstanding message where the 'ack_required' bit was set. As a
consequence, the first message added after we enter nagle mode
is always sent directly with this bit set.
This new feature gives a 50-100% improvement of throughput for small
(i.e., less than MTU size) messages, while it might add up to one RTT
to latency time when the socket is in nagle mode.

Currently, TIPC transports intra-node user data messages directly
socket to socket, hence shortcutting all the lower layers of the
communication stack. This gives TIPC very good intra node performance,
both regarding throughput and latency.
We now introduce a similar mechanism for TIPC data traffic across
network namespaces located in the same kernel. On the send path, the
call chain is as always accompanied by the sending node's network name
space pointer. However, once we have reliably established that the
receiving node is represented by a namespace on the same host, we just
replace the namespace pointer with the receiving node/namespace's
ditto, and follow the regular socket receive patch though the receiving
node. This technique gives us a throughput similar to the node internal
throughput, several times larger than if we let the traffic go though
the full network stacks. As a comparison, max throughput for 64k
messages is four times larger than TCP throughput for the same type of
traffic.
To meet any security concerns, the following should be noted.
- All nodes joining a cluster are supposed to have been be certified
and authenticated by mechanisms outside TIPC. This is no different for
nodes/namespaces on the same host; they have to auto discover each
other using the attached interfaces, and establish links which are
supervised via the regular link monitoring mechanism. Hence, a kernel
local node has no other way to join a cluster than any other node, and
have to obey to policies set in the IP or device layers of the stack.
- Only when a sender has established with 100% certainty that the peer
node is located in a kernel local namespace does it choose to let user
data messages, and only those, take the crossover path to the receiving
node/namespace.
- If the receiving node/namespace is removed, its namespace pointer
is invalidated at all peer nodes, and their neighbor link monitoring
will eventually note that this node is gone.
- To ensure the "100% certainty" criteria, and prevent any possible
spoofing, received discovery messages must contain a proof that the
sender knows a common secret. We use the hash mix of the sending
node/namespace for this purpose, since it can be accessed directly by
all other namespaces in the kernel. Upon reception of a discovery
message, the receiver checks this proof against all the local
namespaces'hash_mix:es. If it finds a match, that, along with a
matching node id and cluster id, this is deemed sufficient proof that
the peer node in question is in a local namespace, and a wormhole can
be opened.
- We should also consider that TIPC is intended to be a cluster local
IPC mechanism (just like e.g. UNIX sockets) rather than a network
protocol, and hence we think it can justified to allow it to shortcut the
lower protocol layers.
Regarding traceability, we should notice that since commit 6c9081a391
("tipc: add loopback device tracking") it is possible to follow the node
internal packet flow by just activating tcpdump on the loopback
interface. This will be true even for this mechanism; by activating
tcpdump on the involved nodes' loopback interfaces their inter-name
space messaging can easily be tracked.
v2:
- update 'net' pointer when node left/rejoined
v3:
- grab read/write lock when using node ref obj
v4:
- clone traffics between netns to loopback

We have identified a problem with the "oversubscription" policy in the
link transmission code.
When small messages are transmitted, and the sending link has reached
the transmit window limit, those messages will be bundled and put into
the link backlog queue. However, bundles of data messages are counted
at the 'CRITICAL' level, so that the counter for that level, instead of
the counter for the real, bundled message's level is the one being
increased.
Subsequent, to-be-bundled data messages at non-CRITICAL levels continue
to be tested against the unchanged counter for their own level, while
contributing to an unrestrained increase at the CRITICAL backlog level.
This leaves a gap in congestion control algorithm for small messages
that can result in starvation for other users or a "real" CRITICAL
user. Even that eventually can lead to buffer exhaustion & link reset.
We fix this by keeping a 'target_bskb' buffer pointer at each levels,
then when bundling, we only bundle messages at the same importance
level only. This way, we know exactly how many slots a certain level
have occupied in the queue, so can manage level congestion accurately.
By bundling messages at the same level, we even have more benefits. Let
consider this:
- One socket sends 64-byte messages at the 'CRITICAL' level;
- Another sends 4096-byte messages at the 'LOW' level;
When a 64-byte message comes and is bundled the first time, we put the
overhead of message bundle to it (+ 40-byte header, data copy, etc.)
for later use, but the next message can be a 4096-byte one that cannot
be bundled to the previous one. This means the last bundle carries only
one payload message which is totally inefficient, as for the receiver
also! Later on, another 64-byte message comes, now we make a new bundle
and the same story repeats...
With the new bundling algorithm, this will not happen, the 64-byte
messages will be bundled together even when the 4096-byte message(s)
comes in between. However, if the 4096-byte messages are sent at the
same level i.e. 'CRITICAL', the bundling algorithm will again cause the
same overhead.
Also, the same will happen even with only one socket sending small
messages at a rate close to the link transmit's one, so that, when one
message is bundled, it's transmitted shortly. Then, another message
comes, a new bundle is created and so on...
We will solve this issue radically by another patch.

The policy for handling the skb list locks on the send and receive paths
is simple.
- On the send path we never need to grab the lock on the 'xmitq' list
when the destination is an exernal node.
- On the receive path we always need to grab the lock on the 'inputq'
list, irrespective of source node.
However, when transmitting node local messages those will eventually
end up on the receive path of a local socket, meaning that the argument
'xmitq' in tipc_node_xmit() will become the 'ínputq' argument in the
function tipc_sk_rcv(). This has been handled by always initializing
the spinlock of the 'xmitq' list at message creation, just in case it
may end up on the receive path later, and despite knowing that the lock
in most cases never will be used.
This approach is inaccurate and confusing, and has also concealed the
fact that the stated 'no lock grabbing' policy for the send path is
violated in some cases.
We now clean up this by never initializing the lock at message creation,
instead doing this at the moment we find that the message actually will
enter the receive path. At the same time we fix the four locations
where we incorrectly access the spinlock on the send/error path.
This patch also reverts commit d12cffe932 ("tipc: ensure head->lock
is initialised") which has now become redundant.

This commit eliminates the use of the link 'stale_limit' & 'prev_from'
(besides the already removed - 'stale_cnt') variables in the detection
of repeated retransmit failures as there is no proper way to initialize
them to avoid a false detection, i.e. it is not really a retransmission
failure but due to a garbage values in the variables.
Instead, a jiffies variable will be added to individual skbs (like the
way we restrict the skb retransmissions) in order to mark the first skb
retransmit time. Later on, at the next retransmissions, the timestamp
will be checked to see if the skb in the link transmq is "too stale",
that is, the link tolerance time has passed, so that a link reset will
be ordered. Note, just checking on the first skb in the queue is fine
enough since it must be the oldest one.
A counter is also added to keep track the actual skb retransmissions'
number for later checking when the failure happens.
The downside of this approach is that the skb->cb[] buffer is about to
be exhausted, however it is always able to allocate another memory area
and keep a reference to it when needed.

we don't inadvertently enter an address trial period when the node

Since node internal messages are passed directly to the socket, it is not
possible to observe those messages via tcpdump or wireshark.
We now remedy this by making it possible to clone such messages and send
the clones to the loopback interface. The clones are dropped at reception
and have no functional role except making the traffic visible.
The feature is enabled if network taps are active for the loopback device.
pcap filtering restrictions require the messages to be presented to the
receiving side of the loopback device.

In commit 365ad353c2 ("tipc: reduce risk of user starvation during
link congestion") we allowed senders to add exactly one list of extra
buffers to the link backlog queues during link congestion (aka
"oversubscription"). However, the criteria for when to stop adding
wakeup messages to the input queue when the overload abates is
inaccurate, and may cause starvation problems during very high load.
Currently, we stop adding wakeup messages after 10 total failed attempts
where we find that there is no space left in the backlog queue for a
certain importance level. The counter for this is accumulated across all
levels, which may lead the algorithm to leave the loop prematurely,
although there may still be plenty of space available at some levels.
The result is sometimes that messages near the wakeup queue tail are not
added to the input queue as they should be.
We now introduce a more exact algorithm, where we keep adding wakeup
messages to a level as long as the backlog queue has free slots for
the corresponding level, and stop at the moment there are no more such
slots or when there are no more wakeup messages to dequeue.

Commit 2753ca5d90 ("tipc: fix uninit-value in tipc_nl_compat_doit")
broke older tipc tools that use compat interface (e.g. tipc-config from
tipcutils package):
% tipc-config -p
operation not supported
The commit started to reject TIPC netlink compat messages that do not
have attributes. It is too restrictive because some of such messages are
valid (they don't need any arguments):
% grep 'tx none' include/uapi/linux/tipc_config.h
#define TIPC_CMD_NOOP 0x0000 /* tx none, rx none */
#define TIPC_CMD_GET_MEDIA_NAMES 0x0002 /* tx none, rx media_name(s) */
#define TIPC_CMD_GET_BEARER_NAMES 0x0003 /* tx none, rx bearer_name(s) */
#define TIPC_CMD_SHOW_PORTS 0x0006 /* tx none, rx ultra_string */
#define TIPC_CMD_GET_REMOTE_MNG 0x4003 /* tx none, rx unsigned */
#define TIPC_CMD_GET_MAX_PORTS 0x4004 /* tx none, rx unsigned */
#define TIPC_CMD_GET_NETID 0x400B /* tx none, rx unsigned */
#define TIPC_CMD_NOT_NET_ADMIN 0xC001 /* tx none, rx none */
This patch relaxes the original fix and rejects messages without
arguments only if such arguments are expected by a command (reg_type is
non zero).

In conjunction with changing the interfaces' MTU (e.g. especially in
the case of a bonding) where the TIPC links are brought up and down
in a short time, a couple of issues were detected with the current link
changeover mechanism:
1) When one link is up but immediately forced down again, the failover
procedure will be carried out in order to failover all the messages in
the link's transmq queue onto the other working link. The link and node
state is also set to FAILINGOVER as part of the process. The message
will be transmited in form of a FAILOVER_MSG, so its size is plus of 40
bytes (= the message header size). There is no problem if the original
message size is not larger than the link's MTU - 40, and indeed this is
the max size of a normal payload messages. However, in the situation
above, because the link has just been up, the messages in the link's
transmq are almost SYNCH_MSGs which had been generated by the link
synching procedure, then their size might reach the max value already!
When the FAILOVER_MSG is built on the top of such a SYNCH_MSG, its size
will exceed the link's MTU. As a result, the messages are dropped
silently and the failover procedure will never end up, the link will
not be able to exit the FAILINGOVER state, so cannot be re-established.
2) The same scenario above can happen more easily in case the MTU of
the links is set differently or when changing. In that case, as long as
a large message in the failure link's transmq queue was built and
fragmented with its link's MTU > the other link's one, the issue will
happen (there is no need of a link synching in advance).
3) The link synching procedure also faces with the same issue but since
the link synching is only started upon receipt of a SYNCH_MSG, dropping
the message will not result in a state deadlock, but it is not expected
as design.
The 1) & 3) issues are resolved by the last commit that only a dummy
SYNCH_MSG (i.e. without data) is generated at the link synching, so the
size of a FAILOVER_MSG if any then will never exceed the link's MTU.
For the 2) issue, the only solution is trying to fragment the messages
in the failure link's transmq queue according to the working link's MTU
so they can be failovered then. A new function is made to accomplish
this, it will still be a TUNNEL PROTOCOL/FAILOVER MSG but if the
original message size is too large, it will be fragmented & reassembled
at the receiving side.

contain any data, just a header conveying the synch point to the peer.

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

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

The tipc_msg_validate() function leaves a boolean flag 'validated' in
the validated buffer's control block, to avoid performing this action
more than once. However, at reception of new packets, the position of
this field may already have been set by lower layer protocols, so
that the packet is erroneously perceived as already validated by TIPC.
We fix this by initializing the said field to 'false' before performing
the initial validation.

tipc_named_node_up() creates a skb list. It passes the list to
tipc_node_xmit() which has some code paths that can call
skb_queue_purge() which relies on the list->lock being initialised.
The spin_lock is only needed if the messages end up on the receive path
but when the list is created in tipc_named_node_up() we don't
necessarily know if it is going to end up there.
Once all the skb list users are updated in tipc it will then be possible
to update them to use the unlocked variants of the skb list functions
and initialise the lock when we know the message will follow the receive
path.

dependent on the link tolerance, and not only of the number of failed
retransmission attempts, as we did earlier. This works well. However,
keeping the original, additional criteria of 99 failed retransmissions
is now redundant, and may in some cases lead to failure detection
times in the order of minutes instead of the expected 1.5 sec link
tolerance value.
We now remove this criteria altogether.

This patch is to fix a dst defcnt leak, which can be reproduced by doing:
# ip net a c; ip net a s; modprobe tipc
# ip net e s ip l a n eth1 type veth peer n eth1 netns c
# ip net e c ip l s lo up; ip net e c ip l s eth1 up
# ip net e s ip l s lo up; ip net e s ip l s eth1 up
# ip net e c ip a a 1.1.1.2/8 dev eth1
# ip net e s ip a a 1.1.1.1/8 dev eth1
# ip net e c tipc b e m udp n u1 localip 1.1.1.2
# ip net e s tipc b e m udp n u1 localip 1.1.1.1
# ip net d c; ip net d s; rmmod tipc
and it will get stuck and keep logging the error:
unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 1
The cause is that a dst is held by the udp sock's sk_rx_dst set on udp rx
path with udp_early_demux == 1, and this dst (eventually holding lo dev)
can't be released as bearer's removal in tipc pernet .exit happens after
lo dev's removal, default_device pernet .exit.
"There are two distinct types of pernet_operations recognized: subsys and
device. At creation all subsys init functions are called before device
init functions, and at destruction all device exit functions are called
before subsys exit function."
So by calling register_pernet_device instead to register tipc_net_ops, the
pernet .exit() will be invoked earlier than loopback dev's removal when a
netns is being destroyed, as fou/gue does.
Note that vxlan and geneve udp tunnels don't have this issue, as the udp
sock is released in their device ndo_stop().
This fix is also necessary for tipc dst_cache, which will hold dsts on tx
path and I will introduce in my next patch.

udp_tunnel(6)_xmit_skb() called by tipc_udp_xmit() expects a tunnel device
to count packets on dev->tstats, a perpcu variable. However, TIPC is using
udp tunnel with no tunnel device, and pass the lower dev, like veth device
that only initializes dev->lstats(a perpcu variable) when creating it.
Later iptunnel_xmit_stats() called by ip(6)tunnel_xmit() thinks the dev as
a tunnel device, and uses dev->tstats instead of dev->lstats. tstats' each
pointer points to a bigger struct than lstats, so when tstats->tx_bytes is
increased, other percpu variable's members could be overwritten.
syzbot has reported quite a few crashes due to fib_nh_common percpu member

It appears that a FAILOVER_MSG can come from peer even when the failure
link is resetting (i.e. just after the 'node_write_unlock()'...). This
means the failover procedure on the node has not been started yet.
The situation is as follows:
node1 node2
linkb linka linka linkb
| | | |
| | x failure |
| | RESETTING |
| | | |
| x failure RESET |
| RESETTING FAILINGOVER |
| | (FAILOVER_MSG) | |
|<-------------------------------------------------|
| *FAILINGOVER | | |
| | (dummy FAILOVER_MSG) | |
|------------------------------------------------->|
| RESET | | FAILOVER_END
| FAILINGOVER RESET |
. . . .
. . . .
. . . .
Once this happens, the link failover procedure will be triggered
wrongly on the receiving node since the node isn't in FAILINGOVER state
but then another link failover will be carried out.
The consequences are:
1) A peer might get stuck in FAILINGOVER state because the 'sync_point'
was set, reset and set incorrectly, the criteria to end the failover
would not be met, it could keep waiting for a message that has already
received.
2) The early FAILOVER_MSG(s) could be queued in the link failover
deferdq but would be purged or not pulled out because the 'drop_point'
was not set correctly.
3) The early FAILOVER_MSG(s) could be dropped too.
4) The dummy FAILOVER_MSG could make the peer leaving FAILINGOVER state
shortly, but later on it would be restarted.
The same situation can also happen when the link is in PEER_RESET state
and a FAILOVER_MSG arrives.
The commit resolves the issues by forcing the link down immediately, so
the failover procedure will be started normally (which is the same as
when receiving a FAILOVER_MSG and the link is in up state).
Also, the function "tipc_node_link_failover()" is toughen to avoid such
a situation from happening.

The issue occurs when more(msg_grp_bc_seqno(hdr), m->bc_rcv_nxt) in

So fix it by calling __skb_queue_purge for each member's deferredq

Here are series of patches that add SPDX tags to different kernel files,
based on two different things:
- SPDX entries are added to a bunch of files that we missed a year ago
that do not have any license information at all.
These were either missed because the tool saw the MODULE_LICENSE()
tag, or some EXPORT_SYMBOL tags, and got confused and thought the
file had a real license, or the files have been added since the last
big sweep, or they were Makefile/Kconfig files, which we didn't
touch last time.
- Add GPL-2.0-only or GPL-2.0-or-later tags to files where our scan
tools can determine the license text in the file itself. Where this
happens, the license text is removed, in order to cut down on the
700+ different ways we have in the kernel today, in a quest to get
rid of all of these.
These patches have been out for review on the linux-spdx@vger mailing
list, and while they were created by automatic tools, they were
hand-verified by a bunch of different people, all whom names are on the
patches are reviewers.
The reason for these "large" patches is if we were to continue to
progress at the current rate of change in the kernel, adding license
tags to individual files in different subsystems, we would be finished
in about 10 years at the earliest.
There will be more series of these types of patches coming over the next
few weeks as the tools and reviewers crunch through the more "odd"
variants of how to say "GPLv2" that developers have come up with over
the years, combined with other fun oddities (GPL + a BSD disclaimer?)
that are being unearthed, with the goal for the whole kernel to be
cleaned up.
These diffstats are not small, 3840 files are touched, over 10k lines
removed in just 24 patches.

commit 517d7c79bd ("tipc: fix hanging poll() for stream sockets")
introduced a regression for clients using non-blocking sockets.
After the commit, we send EPOLLOUT event to the client even in

with ENOTCONN, as the socket is still not in TIPC_ESTABLISHED state.
In this commit, we:
- improve the fix for hanging poll() by replacing sk_data_ready()
with sk_state_change() to wake up all clients.
- revert the faulty updates introduced by commit 517d7c79bd

TIPC link can temporarily fall into "half-establish" that only one of
the link endpoints is ESTABLISHED and starts to send traffic, PROTOCOL
messages, whereas the other link endpoint is not up (e.g. immediately
when the endpoint receives ACTIVATE_MSG, the network interface goes
down...).
This is a normal situation and will be settled because the link
endpoint will be eventually brought down after the link tolerance time.
However, the situation will become worse when the second link is
established before the first link endpoint goes down,
For example:
1. Both links <1A-2A>, <1B-2B> down
2. Link endpoint 2A up, but 1A still down (e.g. due to network
disturbance, wrong session, etc.)
3. Link <1B-2B> up
4. Link endpoint 2A down (e.g. due to link tolerance timeout)
5. Node B starts failover onto link <1B-2B>
==> Node A does never start link failover.
When the "half-failover" situation happens, two consequences have been
observed:
a) Peer link/node gets stuck in FAILINGOVER state;
b) Traffic or user messages that peer node is trying to failover onto
the second link can be partially or completely dropped by this node.
The consequence a) was actually solved by commit c140eb166d ("tipc:
fix failover problem"), but that commit didn't cover the b). It's due
to the fact that the tunnel link endpoint has never been prepared for a
failover, so the 'l->drop_point' (and the other data...) is not set
correctly. When a TUNNEL_MSG from peer node arrives on the link,
depending on the inner message's seqno and the current 'l->drop_point'
value, the message can be dropped (- treated as a duplicate message) or
processed.
At this early stage, the traffic messages from peer are likely to be
NAME_DISTRIBUTORs, this means some name table entries will be missed on
the node forever!
The commit resolves the issue by starting the FAILOVER process on this
node as well. Another benefit from this solution is that we ensure the
link will not be re-established until the failover ends.
