<title>libceph: fix potential use-after-free on linger ping and resends</title>

commit 75dbb685f4e8786c33ddef8279bab0eadfb0731f upstream.

request_reinit() is not only ugly as the comment rightfully suggests,
but also unsafe.  Even though it is called with osdc-&gt;lock held for
write in all cases, resetting the OSD request refcount can still race
with handle_reply() and result in use-after-free.  Taking linger ping
as an example:

    handle_timeout thread                     handle_reply thread

                                              down_read(&amp;osdc-&gt;lock)
                                              req = lookup_request(...)
                                              ...
                                              finish_request(req)  # unregisters
                                              up_read(&amp;osdc-&gt;lock)
                                              __complete_request(req)
                                                linger_ping_cb(req)

      # req-&gt;r_kref == 2 because handle_reply still holds its ref

    down_write(&amp;osdc-&gt;lock)
    send_linger_ping(lreq)
      req = lreq-&gt;ping_req  # same req
      # cancel_linger_request is NOT
      # called - handle_reply already
      # unregistered
      request_reinit(req)
        WARN_ON(req-&gt;r_kref != 1)  # fires
        request_init(req)
          kref_init(req-&gt;r_kref)

                   # req-&gt;r_kref == 1 after kref_init

                                              ceph_osdc_put_request(req)
                                                kref_put(req-&gt;r_kref)

            # req-&gt;r_kref == 0 after kref_put, req is freed

        &lt;further req initialization/use&gt; !!!

This happens because send_linger_ping() always (re)uses the same OSD
request for watch ping requests, relying on cancel_linger_request() to
unregister it from the OSD client and rip its messages out from the
messenger.  send_linger() does the same for watch/notify registration
and watch reconnect requests.  Unfortunately cancel_request() doesn't
guarantee that after it returns the OSD client would be completely done
with the OSD request -- a ref could still be held and the callback (if
specified) could still be invoked too.

The original motivation for request_reinit() was inability to deal with
allocation failures in send_linger() and send_linger_ping().  Switching
to using osdc-&gt;req_mempool (currently only used by CephFS) respects that
and allows us to get rid of request_reinit().

<title>libceph: set global_id as soon as we get an auth ticket</title>

<content type='text'>
Commit 61ca49a9105f ("libceph: don't set global_id until we get an
auth ticket") delayed the setting of global_id too much.  It is set
only after all tickets are received, but in pre-nautilus clusters an
auth ticket and the service tickets are obtained in separate steps
(for a total of three MAuth replies).  When the service tickets are
requested, global_id is used to build an authorizer; if global_id is
still 0 we never get them and fail to establish the session.

Moving the setting of global_id into protocol implementations.  This
way global_id can be set exactly when an auth ticket is received, not
sooner nor later.

These options were introduced in 3.19 with support for message signing
and are rather useless, as explained in commit a51983e4dd2d ("libceph:
add nocephx_sign_messages option").  Deprecate them.

In case there is someone out there with a cluster that lacks support
for MSG_AUTH feature (very unlikely but has to be considered since we
haven't formally raised the bar from argonaut to bobtail yet), make
nocephx_sign_messages also waive MSG_AUTH requirement.  This is probably
how it should have been done in the first place -- if we aren't going
to sign, requiring the signing feature makes no sense.

<title>libceph: introduce connection modes and ms_mode option</title>

<id>00498b994113a871a556f7ff24a4cf8a00611700</id>
<content type='text'>
msgr2 supports two connection modes: crc (plain) and secure (on-wire
encryption).  Connection mode is picked by server based on input from
client.

Introduce ms_mode option:

  ms_mode=legacy        - msgr1 (default)
  ms_mode=crc           - crc mode, if denied fail
  ms_mode=secure        - secure mode, if denied fail
  ms_mode=prefer-crc    - crc mode, if denied agree to secure mode
  ms_mode=prefer-secure - secure mode, if denied agree to crc mode

ms_mode affects all connections, we don't separate connections to mons
like it's done in userspace with ms_client_mode vs ms_mon_client_mode.

For now the default is legacy, to be flipped to prefer-crc after some
time.

msgr2 supports two connection modes: crc (plain) and secure (on-wire
encryption).  Connection mode is picked by server based on input from
client.

Introduce ms_mode option:

  ms_mode=legacy        - msgr1 (default)
  ms_mode=crc           - crc mode, if denied fail
  ms_mode=secure        - secure mode, if denied fail
  ms_mode=prefer-crc    - crc mode, if denied agree to secure mode
  ms_mode=prefer-secure - secure mode, if denied agree to crc mode

ms_mode affects all connections, we don't separate connections to mons
like it's done in userspace with ms_client_mode vs ms_mon_client_mode.

For now the default is legacy, to be flipped to prefer-crc after some
time.
