rxrpc: Fix missing locking causing hanging calls

2024-11-07T19:30:34+00:00

If a call gets aborted (e.g. because kafs saw a signal) between it being
queued for connection and the I/O thread picking up the call, the abort
will be prioritised over the connection and it will be removed from
local->new_client_calls by rxrpc_disconnect_client_call() without a lock
being held.  This may cause other calls on the list to disappear if a race
occurs.

Fix this by taking the client_call_lock when removing a call from whatever
list its ->wait_link happens to be on.

rxrpc: Fix uninitialised variable in rxrpc_send_data()

2024-10-03T23:23:21+00:00

Fix the uninitialised txb variable in rxrpc_send_data() by moving the code
that loads it above all the jumps to maybe_error, txb being stored back
into call->tx_pending right before the normal return.

rxrpc: Fix a race between socket set up and I/O thread creation

2024-10-03T23:23:20+00:00

In rxrpc_open_socket(), it sets up the socket and then sets up the I/O
thread that will handle it.  This is a problem, however, as there's a gap
between the two phases in which a packet may come into rxrpc_encap_rcv()
from the UDP packet but we oops when trying to wake the not-yet created I/O
thread.

As a quick fix, just make rxrpc_encap_rcv() discard the packet if there's
no I/O thread yet.

A better, but more intrusive fix would perhaps be to rearrange things such
that the socket creation is done by the I/O thread.

rxrpc: Only transmit one ACK per jumbo packet received

2024-05-08T15:05:03+00:00

Only generate one ACK packet for all the subpackets in a jumbo packet.  If
we would like to generate more than one ACK, we prioritise them base on
their reason code, in the order, highest first:

   OutOfSeq > NoSpace > ExceedsWin > Duplicate > Requested > Delay > Idle

For the first four, we reference the lowest offending subpacket; for the
last three, the highest.

This reduces the number of ACKs we end up transmitting to one per UDP
packet transmitted to reduce network loading and packet parsing.

rxrpc: Fix congestion control algorithm

2024-05-08T15:05:03+00:00

Make the following fixes to the congestion control algorithm:

 (1) Don't vary the cwnd starting value by the size of RXRPC_TX_SMSS since
     that's currently held constant - set to the size of a jumbo subpacket
     payload so that we can create jumbo packets on the fly.  The current
     code invariably picks 3 as the starting value.

     Further, the starting cwnd needs to be an even number because we ack
     every other packet, so set it to 4.

 (2) Don't cut ssthresh when we see an ACK come from the peer with a
     receive window (rwind) less than ssthresh.  ssthresh keeps track of
     characteristics of the connection whereas rwind may be reduced by the
     peer for any reason - and may be reduced to 0.

net: Remove ctl_table sentinel elements from several networking subsystems

2024-05-03T12:29:42+00:00

This commit comes at the tail end of a greater effort to remove the
empty elements at the end of the ctl_table arrays (sentinels) which
will reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run time
memory bloat by ~64 bytes per sentinel (further information Link :
https://lore.kernel.org/all/ZO5Yx5JFogGi%2FcBo@bombadil.infradead.org/)

To avoid lots of small commits, this commit brings together network
changes from (as they appear in MAINTAINERS) LLC, MPTCP, NETROM NETWORK
LAYER, PHONET PROTOCOL, ROSE NETWORK LAYER, RXRPC SOCKETS, SCTP
PROTOCOL, SHARED MEMORY COMMUNICATIONS (SMC), TIPC NETWORK LAYER and
NETWORKING [IPSEC]

* Remove sentinel element from ctl_table structs.
* Replace empty array registration with the register_net_sysctl_sz call
  in llc_sysctl_init
* Replace the for loop stop condition that tests for procname == NULL
  with one that depends on array size in sctp_sysctl_net_register
* Remove instances where an array element is zeroed out to make it look
  like a sentinel in xfrm_sysctl_init. This is not longer needed and is
  safe after commit c899710fe7f9 ("networking: Update to
  register_net_sysctl_sz") added the array size to the ctl_table
  registration
* Use a table_size variable to keep the value of ARRAY_SIZE

rxrpc: Clients must accept conn from any address

2024-05-01T21:49:56+00:00

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.
