David Howells [Thu, 26 Apr 2007 22:50:17 +0000 (15:50 -0700)]
[AF_RXRPC]: Add an interface to the AF_RXRPC module for the AFS filesystem to use

Add an interface to the AF_RXRPC module so that the AFS filesystem module can
more easily make use of the services available.  AFS still opens a socket but
then uses the action functions in lieu of sendmsg() and registers an intercept
functions to grab messages before they're queued on the socket Rx queue.

This permits AFS (or whatever) to:

 (1) Avoid the overhead of using the recvmsg() call.

 (2) Use different keys directly on individual client calls on one socket
     rather than having to open a whole slew of sockets, one for each key it
     might want to use.

 (3) Avoid calling request_key() at the point of issue of a call or opening of
     a socket.  This is done instead by AFS at the point of open(), unlink() or
     other VFS operation and the key handed through.

 (4) Request the use of something other than GFP_KERNEL to allocate memory.

Furthermore:

 (*) The socket buffer markings used by RxRPC are made available for AFS so
     that it can interpret the cooked RxRPC messages itself.

 (*) rxgen (un)marshalling abort codes are made available.

The following documentation for the kernel interface is added to
Documentation/networking/rxrpc.txt:

=========================
AF_RXRPC KERNEL INTERFACE
=========================

The AF_RXRPC module also provides an interface for use by in-kernel utilities
such as the AFS filesystem.  This permits such a utility to:

 (1) Use different keys directly on individual client calls on one socket
     rather than having to open a whole slew of sockets, one for each key it
     might want to use.

 (2) Avoid having RxRPC call request_key() at the point of issue of a call or
     opening of a socket.  Instead the utility is responsible for requesting a
     key at the appropriate point.  AFS, for instance, would do this during VFS
     operations such as open() or unlink().  The key is then handed through
     when the call is initiated.

 (3) Request the use of something other than GFP_KERNEL to allocate memory.

 (4) Avoid the overhead of using the recvmsg() call.  RxRPC messages can be
     intercepted before they get put into the socket Rx queue and the socket
     buffers manipulated directly.

To use the RxRPC facility, a kernel utility must still open an AF_RXRPC socket,
bind an addess as appropriate and listen if it's to be a server socket, but
then it passes this to the kernel interface functions.

The kernel interface functions are as follows:

 (*) Begin a new client call.

struct rxrpc_call *
rxrpc_kernel_begin_call(struct socket *sock,
struct sockaddr_rxrpc *srx,
struct key *key,
unsigned long user_call_ID,
gfp_t gfp);

     This allocates the infrastructure to make a new RxRPC call and assigns
     call and connection numbers.  The call will be made on the UDP port that
     the socket is bound to.  The call will go to the destination address of a
     connected client socket unless an alternative is supplied (srx is
     non-NULL).

     If a key is supplied then this will be used to secure the call instead of
     the key bound to the socket with the RXRPC_SECURITY_KEY sockopt.  Calls
     secured in this way will still share connections if at all possible.

     The user_call_ID is equivalent to that supplied to sendmsg() in the
     control data buffer.  It is entirely feasible to use this to point to a
     kernel data structure.

     If this function is successful, an opaque reference to the RxRPC call is
     returned.  The caller now holds a reference on this and it must be
     properly ended.

 (*) End a client call.

void rxrpc_kernel_end_call(struct rxrpc_call *call);

     This is used to end a previously begun call.  The user_call_ID is expunged
     from AF_RXRPC's knowledge and will not be seen again in association with
     the specified call.

 (*) Send data through a call.

int rxrpc_kernel_send_data(struct rxrpc_call *call, struct msghdr *msg,
   size_t len);

     This is used to supply either the request part of a client call or the
     reply part of a server call.  msg.msg_iovlen and msg.msg_iov specify the
     data buffers to be used.  msg_iov may not be NULL and must point
     exclusively to in-kernel virtual addresses.  msg.msg_flags may be given
     MSG_MORE if there will be subsequent data sends for this call.

     The msg must not specify a destination address, control data or any flags
     other than MSG_MORE.  len is the total amount of data to transmit.

 (*) Abort a call.

void rxrpc_kernel_abort_call(struct rxrpc_call *call, u32 abort_code);

     This is used to abort a call if it's still in an abortable state.  The
     abort code specified will be placed in the ABORT message sent.

 (*) Intercept received RxRPC messages.

typedef void (*rxrpc_interceptor_t)(struct sock *sk,
    unsigned long user_call_ID,
    struct sk_buff *skb);

void
rxrpc_kernel_intercept_rx_messages(struct socket *sock,
   rxrpc_interceptor_t interceptor);

     This installs an interceptor function on the specified AF_RXRPC socket.
     All messages that would otherwise wind up in the socket's Rx queue are
     then diverted to this function.  Note that care must be taken to process
     the messages in the right order to maintain DATA message sequentiality.

     The interceptor function itself is provided with the address of the socket
     and handling the incoming message, the ID assigned by the kernel utility
     to the call and the socket buffer containing the message.

     The skb->mark field indicates the type of message:

MARK MEANING
=============================== =======================================
RXRPC_SKB_MARK_DATA Data message
RXRPC_SKB_MARK_FINAL_ACK Final ACK received for an incoming call
RXRPC_SKB_MARK_BUSY Client call rejected as server busy
RXRPC_SKB_MARK_REMOTE_ABORT Call aborted by peer
RXRPC_SKB_MARK_NET_ERROR Network error detected
RXRPC_SKB_MARK_LOCAL_ERROR Local error encountered
RXRPC_SKB_MARK_NEW_CALL New incoming call awaiting acceptance

     The remote abort message can be probed with rxrpc_kernel_get_abort_code().
     The two error messages can be probed with rxrpc_kernel_get_error_number().
     A new call can be accepted with rxrpc_kernel_accept_call().

     Data messages can have their contents extracted with the usual bunch of
     socket buffer manipulation functions.  A data message can be determined to
     be the last one in a sequence with rxrpc_kernel_is_data_last().  When a
     data message has been used up, rxrpc_kernel_data_delivered() should be
     called on it..

     Non-data messages should be handled to rxrpc_kernel_free_skb() to dispose
     of.  It is possible to get extra refs on all types of message for later
     freeing, but this may pin the state of a call until the message is finally
     freed.

 (*) Accept an incoming call.

struct rxrpc_call *
rxrpc_kernel_accept_call(struct socket *sock,
 unsigned long user_call_ID);

     This is used to accept an incoming call and to assign it a call ID.  This
     function is similar to rxrpc_kernel_begin_call() and calls accepted must
     be ended in the same way.

     If this function is successful, an opaque reference to the RxRPC call is
     returned.  The caller now holds a reference on this and it must be
     properly ended.

 (*) Reject an incoming call.

int rxrpc_kernel_reject_call(struct socket *sock);

     This is used to reject the first incoming call on the socket's queue with
     a BUSY message.  -ENODATA is returned if there were no incoming calls.

[WORKQUEUE]: cancel_delayed_work: use del_timer() instead of del_timer_sync()

del_timer_sync() buys nothing for cancel_delayed_work(), but it is less
efficient since it locks the timer unconditionally, and may wait for the
completion of the delayed_work_timer_fn().

cancel_delayed_work() == 0 means:

before this patch:
work->func may still be running or queued

after this patch:
work->func may still be running or queued, or
delayed_work_timer_fn->__queue_work() in progress.

The latter doesn't differ from the caller's POV,
delayed_work_timer_fn() is called with _PENDING
bit set.

cancel_delayed_work() == 1 with this patch adds a new possibility:

delayed_work->work was cancelled, but delayed_work_timer_fn
is still running (this is only possible for the re-arming
works on single-threaded workqueue).

In this case the timer was re-started by work->func(), nobody
else can do this. This in turn means that delayed_work_timer_fn
has already passed __queue_work() (and wont't touch delayed_work)
because nobody else can queue delayed_work->work.

[TIPC]: Enhancements to msg_set_bits() routine

This patch makes two enhancements to msg_set_bits():

1) It now ignores any bits of the new field value that are not
   covered by the mask being used.  (Previously, if the new value
   exceeded the size of the mask the extra bits could corrupt
   other fields in the message header word being updated.)

2) The code has been optimized to minimize the number of run-time
   endianness conversion operations by leveraging the fact that the
   mask (and, in some cases, the value as well) is constant and the
   necessary conversion can be performed by the compiler.

pppoe_flush_dev() kicks all sockets bound to a device that is going down.
In doing so, locks must be taken in the right order consistently (sock lock,
followed by the pppoe_hash_lock).  However, the scan process is based on
us holding the sock lock.  So, when something is found in the scan we must
release the lock we're holding and grab the sock lock.

This patch fixes race conditions between this code and pppoe_release(),
both of which perform similar functions but would naturally prefer to grab
locks in opposing orders.  Both code paths are now going after these locks
in a consistent manner.

pppoe_hash_lock protects the contents of the "pppox_sock" objects that reside
inside the hash.  Thus, NULL'ing out the pppoe_dev field should be done
under the protection of this lock.

referring to a device that we already acked a NETDEV_GOING_DOWN for
(that is: all references are only guaranteed to be freed after
NETDEV_DOWN has been acknowledged, not necessarily after the
NETDEV_GOING_DOWN already). And if we are allowed to, we could avoid
looking through the hash table upon NETDEV_GOING_DOWN completely and
only do that once we get the NETDEV_DOWN ...

mostrows:
pppoe_flush_dev is called on NETDEV_GOING_DOWN and NETDEV_DOWN to deal with
this "late connect" issue.  Ideally one would hope to notify users at the
"NETDEV_GOING_DOWN" phase (just to pretend to be nice).  However, it is the
NETDEV_DOWN scan that takes all the responsibility for ensuring nobody is
hanging around at that time.

[NET] skbuff: skb_store_bits const is backwards

Getting warnings becuase skb_store_bits has skb as constant,
but the function overwrites it. Looks like const was on the
wrong side.

[AF_PACKET]: Add option to return orig_dev to userspace.

Add a packet socket option to allow the orig_dev index to be returned
to userspace when passing traffic through a decapsulated device, such
as the bonding driver.

This is very useful for layer 2 traffic being able to report which
physical device actually received the traffic, instead of having the
encapsulating device hide that information.

The new option is called PACKET_ORIGDEV.
