tipc: delete tipc_mtu_bad from tipc_udp_enable

Since commit a4dfa72d0acd ("tipc: set default MTU for UDP media"), it's
been no longer using dev->mtu for b->mtu, and the issue described in
commit 3de81b758853 ("tipc: check minimum bearer MTU") doesn't exist
in UDP bearer any more.

Besides, dev->mtu can still be changed to a too small mtu after the UDP
bearer is created even with tipc_mtu_bad() check in tipc_udp_enable().
Note that NETDEV_CHANGEMTU event processing in tipc_l2_device_event()
doesn't really work for UDP bearer.

So this patch deletes the unnecessary tipc_mtu_bad from tipc_udp_enable.

tipc: introduce variable window congestion control

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.

tipc: introduce TIPC encryption & authentication

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)
+-+ +-+
| V | V
+---------+ Attach +---------+
| IDLE |---------------->| PENDING |(user = 0)
+---------+ +---------+
A A Switch| A
| | | |
| | Free(switch/revoked) | |
(Free)| +----------------------+ | |Timeout
| (TX) | | |(RX)
| | | |
| | v |
+---------+ Switch +---------+
| PASSIVE |<----------------| ACTIVE |
+---------+ (RX) +---------+
(user = 1) (user >= 1)

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.

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.

tipc: add loopback device tracking

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.

v3 - Function dev_nit_active used to check for network taps.
- Procedure netif_rx_ni used to send cloned messages to loopback device.

tipc: enable tracepoints in tipc

As for the sake of debugging/tracing, the commit enables tracepoints in
TIPC along with some general trace_events as shown below. It also
defines some 'tipc_*_dump()' functions that allow to dump TIPC object
data whenever needed, that is, for general debug purposes, ie. not just
for the trace_events.

The following trace_events are now available:

- trace_tipc_skb_dump(): allows to trace and dump TIPC msg & skb data,
e.g. message type, user, droppable, skb truesize, cloned skb, etc.

- trace_tipc_list_dump(): allows to trace and dump any TIPC buffers or
queues, e.g. TIPC link transmq, socket receive queue, etc.

- trace_tipc_sk_dump(): allows to trace and dump TIPC socket data, e.g.
sk state, sk type, connection type, rmem_alloc, socket queues, etc.

- trace_tipc_link_dump(): allows to trace and dump TIPC link data, e.g.
link state, silent_intv_cnt, gap, bc_gap, link queues, etc.

- trace_tipc_node_dump(): allows to trace and dump TIPC node data, e.g.
node state, active links, capabilities, link entries, etc.

How to use:
Put the trace functions at any places where we want to dump TIPC data
or events.

Note:
a) The dump functions will generate raw data only, that is, to offload
the trace event's processing, it can require a tool or script to parse
the data but this should be simple.

b) The trace_tipc_*_dump() should be reserved for a failure cases only
(e.g. the retransmission failure case) or where we do not expect to
happen too often, then we can consider enabling these events by default
since they will almost not take any effects under normal conditions,
but once the rare condition or failure occurs, we get the dumped data
fully for post-analysis.

For other trace purposes, we can reuse these trace classes as template
but different events.

c) A trace_event is only effective when we enable it. To enable the
TIPC trace_events, echo 1 to 'enable' files in the events/tipc/
directory in the 'debugfs' file system. Normally, they are located at:

/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tipc/

For example:

To enable the tipc_link_dump event:

echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tipc/tipc_link_dump/enable

To enable all the TIPC trace_events:

echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tipc/enable

To collect the trace data:

cat trace

or

cat trace_pipe > /trace.out &

To disable all the TIPC trace_events:

echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tipc/enable

To clear the trace buffer:

echo > trace

d) Like the other trace_events, the feature like 'filter' or 'trigger'
is also usable for the tipc trace_events.

tipc: don't reset stale broadcast send link

When the broadcast send link after 100 attempts has failed to
transfer a packet to all peers, we consider it stale, and reset
it. Thereafter it needs to re-synchronize with the peers, something
currently done by just resetting and re-establishing all links to
all peers. This has turned out to be overkill, with potentially
unwanted consequences for the remaining cluster.

A closer analysis reveals that this can be done much simpler. When
this kind of failure happens, for reasons that may lie outside the
TIPC protocol, it is typically only one peer which is failing to
receive and acknowledge packets. It is hence sufficient to identify
and reset the links only to that peer to resolve the situation, without
having to reset the broadcast link at all. This solution entails a much
lower risk of negative consequences for the own node as well as for
the overall cluster.

We implement this change in this commit.

tipc: check minimum bearer MTU

Qian Zhang (张谦) reported a potential socket buffer overflow in
tipc_msg_build() which is also known as CVE-2016-8632: due to
insufficient checks, a buffer overflow can occur if MTU is too short for
even tipc headers. As anyone can set device MTU in a user/net namespace,
this issue can be abused by a regular user.

As agreed in the discussion on Ben Hutchings' original patch, we should
check the MTU at the moment a bearer is attached rather than for each
processed packet. We also need to repeat the check when bearer MTU is
adjusted to new device MTU. UDP case also needs a check to avoid
overflow when calculating bearer MTU.

tipc: make bearer packet filtering generic

In commit 5b7066c3dd24 ("tipc: stricter filtering of packets in bearer
layer") we introduced a method of filtering out messages while a bearer
is being reset, to avoid that links may be re-created and come back in
working state while we are still in the process of shutting them down.

This solution works well, but is limited to only work with L2 media, which
is insufficient with the increasing use of UDP as carrier media.

We now replace this solution with a more generic one, by introducing a
new flag "up" in the generic struct tipc_bearer. This field will be set
and reset at the same locations as with the previous solution, while
the packet filtering is moved to the generic code for the sending side.
On the receiving side, the filtering is still done in media specific
code, but now including the UDP bearer.
