rxrpc: Clients must accept conn from any address

rxrpc: Clients must accept conn from any address

[ Upstream commit 8953285d7bd63c12b007432a9b4587fa2fad49fb ]

The find connection logic of Transarc's Rx was modified in the mid-1990s
to support multi-homed servers which might send a response packet from
an address other than the destination address in the received packet.
The rules for accepting a packet by an Rx initiator (RX_CLIENT_CONNECTION)
were altered to permit acceptance of a packet from any address provided
that the port number was unchanged and all of the connection identifiers
matched (Epoch, CID, SecurityClass, ...).

This change applies the same rules to the Linux implementation which makes
it consistent with IBM AFS 3.6, Arla, OpenAFS and AuriStorFS.

rxrpc: Fix two connection reaping bugs

[ Upstream commit 61e4a86600029e6e8d468d1fad6b6c749bebed19 ]

Fix two connection reaping bugs:

(1) rxrpc_connection_expiry is in units of seconds, so
rxrpc_disconnect_call() needs to multiply it by HZ when adding it to
jiffies.

(2) rxrpc_client_conn_reap_timeout() should set RXRPC_CLIENT_REAP_TIMER if
local->kill_all_client_conns is clear, not if it is set (in which case
we don't need the timer). Without this, old client connections don't
get cleaned up until the local endpoint is cleaned up.

Fixes: 0d6bf319bc5a ("rxrpc: Move the client conn cache management to the I/O thread")

rxrpc: Move client call connection to the I/O thread

Move the connection setup of client calls to the I/O thread so that a whole
load of locking and barrierage can be eliminated. This necessitates the
app thread waiting for connection to complete before it can begin
encrypting data.

This also completes the fix for a race that exists between call connection
and call disconnection whereby the data transmission code adds the call to
the peer error distribution list after the call has been disconnected (say
by the rxrpc socket getting closed).

The fix is to complete the process of moving call connection, data
transmission and call disconnection into the I/O thread and thus forcibly
serialising them.

Note that the issue may predate the overhaul to an I/O thread model that
were included in the merge window for v6.2, but the timing is very much
changed by the change given below.

rxrpc: Move the client conn cache management to the I/O thread

Move the management of the client connection cache to the I/O thread rather
than managing it from the namespace as an aggregate across all the local
endpoints within the namespace.

This will allow a load of locking to be got rid of in a future patch as
only the I/O thread will be looking at the this.

The downside is that the total number of cached connections on the system
can get higher because the limit is now per-local rather than per-netns.
We can, however, keep the number of client conns in use across the entire
netfs and use that to reduce the expiration time of idle connection.

rxrpc: Make the I/O thread take over the call and local processor work

Move the functions from the call->processor and local->processor work items
into the domain of the I/O thread.

The call event processor, now called from the I/O thread, then takes over
the job of cranking the call state machine, processing incoming packets and
transmitting DATA, ACK and ABORT packets. In a future patch,
rxrpc_send_ACK() will transmit the ACK on the spot rather than queuing it
for later transmission.

The call event processor becomes purely received-skb driven. It only
transmits things in response to events. We use "pokes" to queue a dummy
skb to make it do things like start/resume transmitting data. Timer expiry
also results in pokes.

The connection event processor, becomes similar, though crypto events, such
as dealing with CHALLENGE and RESPONSE packets is offloaded to a work item
to avoid doing crypto in the I/O thread.

The local event processor is removed and VERSION response packets are
generated directly from the packet parser. Similarly, ABORTs generated in
response to protocol errors will be transmitted immediately rather than
being pushed onto a queue for later transmission.

rxrpc: Don't hold a ref for connection workqueue

Currently, rxrpc gives the connection's work item a ref on the connection
when it queues it - and this is called from the timer expiration function.

rxrpc: Don't hold a ref for connection workqueue

Currently, rxrpc gives the connection's work item a ref on the connection
when it queues it - and this is called from the timer expiration function.
The problem comes when queue_work() fails (ie. the work item is already
queued): the timer routine must put the ref - but this may cause the
cleanup code to run.

This has the unfortunate effect that the cleanup code may then be run in
softirq context - which means that any spinlocks it might need to touch
have to be guarded to disable softirqs (ie. they need a "_bh" suffix).

(1) Don't give a ref to the work item.

(2) Simplify handling of service connections by adding a separate active
count so that the refcount isn't also used for this.

(3) Connection destruction for both client and service connections can
then be cleaned up by putting rxrpc_put_connection() out of line and
making a tidy progression through the destruction code (offloaded to a
workqueue if put from softirq or processor function context). The RCU
part of the cleanup then only deals with the freeing at the end.

(4) Make rxrpc_queue_conn() return immediately if it sees the active count
is -1 rather then queuing the connection.

(5) Make sure that the cleanup routine waits for the work item to
complete.

(6) Stash the rxrpc_net pointer in the conn struct so that the rcu free
routine can use it, even if the local endpoint has been freed.

Unfortunately, neither the timer nor the work item can simply get around
the problem by just using refcount_inc_not_zero() as the waits would still
have to be done, and there would still be the possibility of having to put
the ref in the expiration function.

Note the connection work item is mostly going to go away with the main
event work being transferred to the I/O thread, so the wait in (6) will
become obsolete.

rxrpc: Fix congestion management

rxrpc has a problem in its congestion management in that it saves the
congestion window size (cwnd) from one call to another, but if this is 0 at
the time is saved, then the next call may not actually manage to ever
transmit anything.

To this end:

(1) Don't save cwnd between calls, but rather reset back down to the
initial cwnd and re-enter slow-start if data transmission is idle for
more than an RTT.

(2) Preserve ssthresh instead, as that is a handy estimate of pipe
capacity. Knowing roughly when to stop slow start and enter
congestion avoidance can reduce the tendency to overshoot and drop
larger amounts of packets when probing.

In future, cwind growth also needs to be constrained when the window isn't
being filled due to being application limited.

rxrpc: Get rid of the Rx ring

Get rid of the Rx ring and replace it with a pair of queues instead. One
queue gets the packets that are in-sequence and are ready for processing by
recvmsg(); the other queue gets the out-of-sequence packets for addition to
the first queue as the holes get filled.

The annotation ring is removed and replaced with a SACK table. The SACK
table has the bits set that correspond exactly to the sequence number of
the packet being acked. The SACK ring is copied when an ACK packet is
being assembled and rotated so that the first ACK is in byte 0.

Flow control handling is altered so that packets that are moved to the
in-sequence queue are hard-ACK'd even before they're consumed - and then
the Rx window size in the ACK packet (rsize) is shrunk down to compensate
(even going to 0 if the window is full).
