commit 5391a87751a164b3194864126f3b016038abc9fe upstream.

In commit 9546a0b7ce00 ("tipc: fix wrong connect() return code"), we
fixed the issue with the 'connect()' that returns zero even though the
connecting has failed by waiting for the connection to be 'ESTABLISHED'
really. However, the approach has one drawback in conjunction with our
'lightweight' connection setup mechanism that the following scenario
can happen:

          (server)                        (client)

   +- accept()|                      |             wait_for_conn()
   |          |                      |connect() -------+
   |          |&lt;-------[SYN]---------|                 &gt; sleeping
   |          |                      *CONNECTING       |
   |---------&gt;*ESTABLISHED           |                 |
              |--------[ACK]--------&gt;*ESTABLISHED      &gt; wakeup()
        send()|--------[DATA]-------&gt;|\                &gt; wakeup()
        send()|--------[DATA]-------&gt;| |               &gt; wakeup()
          .   .          .           . |-&gt; recvq       .
          .   .          .           . |               .
        send()|--------[DATA]-------&gt;|/                &gt; wakeup()
       close()|--------[FIN]--------&gt;*DISCONNECTING    |
              *DISCONNECTING         |                 |
              |                      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~&gt; schedule()
                                                       | wait again
                                                       .
                                                       .
                                                       | ETIMEDOUT

Upon the receipt of the server 'ACK', the client becomes 'ESTABLISHED'
and the 'wait_for_conn()' process is woken up but not run. Meanwhile,
the server starts to send a number of data following by a 'close()'
shortly without waiting any response from the client, which then forces
the client socket to be 'DISCONNECTING' immediately. When the wait
process is switched to be running, it continues to wait until the timer
expires because of the unexpected socket state. The client 'connect()'
will finally get ‘-ETIMEDOUT’ and force to release the socket whereas
there remains the messages in its receive queue.

Obviously the issue would not happen if the server had some delay prior
to its 'close()' (or the number of 'DATA' messages is large enough),
but any kind of delay would make the connection setup/shutdown "heavy".
We solve this by simply allowing the 'connect()' returns zero in this
particular case. The socket is already 'DISCONNECTING', so any further
write will get '-EPIPE' but the socket is still able to read the
messages existing in its receive queue.

Note: This solution doesn't break the previous one as it deals with a
different situation that the socket state is 'DISCONNECTING' but has no
error (i.e. sk-&gt;sk_err = 0).

The current 'tipc_wait_for_connect()' function does a wait-loop for the
condition 'sk-&gt;sk_state != TIPC_CONNECTING' to conclude if the socket
connecting has done. However, when the condition is met, it returns '0'
even in the case the connecting is actually failed, the socket state is
set to 'TIPC_DISCONNECTING' (e.g. when the server socket has closed..).
This results in a wrong return code for the 'connect()' call from user,
making it believe that the connection is established and go ahead with
building, sending a message, etc. but finally failed e.g. '-EPIPE'.

This commit fixes the issue by changing the wait condition to the
'tipc_sk_connected(sk)', so the function will return '0' only when the
connection is really established. Otherwise, either the socket 'sk_err'
if any or '-ETIMEDOUT'/'-EINTR' will be returned correspondingly.

<title>tipc: fix link overflow issue at socket shutdown</title>

When a socket is suddenly shutdown or released, it will reject all the
unreceived messages in its receive queue. This applies to a connected
socket too, whereas there is only one 'FIN' message required to be sent
back to its peer in this case.

In case there are many messages in the queue and/or some connections
with such messages are shutdown at the same time, the link layer will
easily get overflowed at the 'TIPC_SYSTEM_IMPORTANCE' backlog level
because of the message rejections. As a result, the link will be taken
down. Moreover, immediately when the link is re-established, the socket
layer can continue to reject the messages and the same issue happens...

The commit refactors the '__tipc_shutdown()' function to only send one
'FIN' in the situation mentioned above. For the connectionless case, it
is unavoidable but usually there is no rejections for such socket
messages because they are 'dest-droppable' by default.

In addition, the new code makes the other socket states clear
(e.g.'TIPC_LISTEN') and treats as a separate case to avoid misbehaving.

The complaint above occurred because the memory region pointed by attrbuf
variable was not initialized. To eliminate this warning, we use kcalloc()
rather than kmalloc_array() to allocate memory for attrbuf.

<content type='text'>
In the function 'tipc_disc_rcv()', the 'msg_peer_net_hash()' is called
to read the header data field but after the message skb has been freed,
that might result in a garbage value...

This commit fixes it by defining a new local variable to store the data
first, just like the other header fields' handling.

<content type='text'>
When a user message is sent, TIPC will check if the socket has faced a
congestion at link layer. If that happens, it will make a sleep to wait
for the congestion to disappear. This leaves a gap for other users to
take over the socket (e.g. multi threads) since the socket is released
as well. Also, in case of connectionless (e.g. SOCK_RDM), user is free
to send messages to various destinations (e.g. via 'sendto()'), then
the socket's preformatted header has to be updated correspondingly
prior to the actual payload message building.

Unfortunately, the latter action is done before the first action which
causes a condition issue that the destination of a certain message can
be modified incorrectly in the middle, leading to wrong destination
when that message is built. Consequently, when the message is sent to
the link layer, it gets stuck there forever because the peer node will
simply reject it. After a number of retransmission attempts, the link
is eventually taken down and the retransmission failure is reported.

This commit fixes the problem by rearranging the order of actions to
prevent the race condition from occurring, so the message building is
'atomic' and its header will not be modified by anyone.

<title>tipc: fix potential hanging after b/rcast changing</title>

<id>dca4a17d24ee9d878836ce5eb8dc25be1ffa5729</id>
<content type='text'>
In commit c55c8edafa91 ("tipc: smooth change between replicast and
broadcast"), we allow instant switching between replicast and broadcast
by sending a dummy 'SYN' packet on the last used link to synchronize
packets on the links. The 'SYN' message is an object of link congestion
also, so if that happens, a 'SOCK_WAKEUP' will be scheduled to be sent
back to the socket...
However, in that commit, we simply use the same socket 'cong_link_cnt'
counter for both the 'SYN' &amp; normal payload message sending. Therefore,
if both the replicast &amp; broadcast links are congested, the counter will
be not updated correctly but overwritten by the latter congestion.
Later on, when the 'SOCK_WAKEUP' messages are processed, the counter is
reduced one by one and eventually overflowed. Consequently, further
activities on the socket will only wait for the false congestion signal
to disappear but never been met.

Because sending the 'SYN' message is vital for the mechanism, it should
be done anyway. This commit fixes the issue by marking the message with
an error code e.g. 'TIPC_ERR_NO_PORT', so its sending should not face a
link congestion, there is no need to touch the socket 'cong_link_cnt'
either. In addition, in the event of any error (e.g. -ENOBUFS), we will
purge the entire payload message queue and make a return immediately.
