[ Upstream commit 7ab412d33b4c7ff3e0148d3db25dd861edd1283d ]

When a link failure is detected locally, the link is reset, the flag
link-&gt;in_session is set to false, and a RESET_MSG with the 'stopping'
bit set is sent to the peer.

The purpose of this bit is to inform the peer that this endpoint just
is going down, and that the peer should handle the reception of this
particular RESET message as a local failure. This forces the peer to
accept another RESET or ACTIVATE message from this endpoint before it
can re-establish the link. This again is necessary to ensure that
link session numbers are properly exchanged before the link comes up
again.

If a failure is detected locally at the same time at the peer endpoint
this will do the same, which is also a correct behavior.

However, when receiving such messages, the endpoints will not
distinguish between 'stopping' RESETs and ordinary ones when it comes
to updating session numbers. Both endpoints will copy the received
session number and set their 'in_session' flags to true at the
reception, while they are still expecting another RESET from the
peer before they can go ahead and re-establish. This is contradictory,
since, after applying the validation check referred to below, the
'in_session' flag will cause rejection of all such messages, and the
link will never come up again.

We now fix this by not only handling received RESET/STOPPING messages
as a local failure, but also by omitting to set a new session number
and the 'in_session' flag in such cases.

The reason seems to be that tipc_net_finalize()-&gt;tipc_sk_reinit() is
calling the function rhashtable_walk_enter() within a timer interrupt.
We fix this by executing tipc_net_finalize() in work queue context.

The reason seems to be that tipc_net_finalize()-&gt;tipc_sk_reinit() is
calling the function rhashtable_walk_enter() within a timer interrupt.
We fix this by executing tipc_net_finalize() in work queue context.

[ Upstream commit 1c1274a56999fbdf9cf84e332b28448bb2d55221 ]

The code for reading ancillary data from a received buffer is assuming
the buffer is linear. To make this assumption true we have to linearize
the buffer before message data is read.

[ Upstream commit 89ab066d4229acd32e323f1569833302544a4186 ]

This reverts commit dd979b4df817e9976f18fb6f9d134d6bc4a3c317.

This broke tcp_poll for SMC fallback: An AF_SMC socket establishes an
internal TCP socket for the initial handshake with the remote peer.
Whenever the SMC connection can not be established this TCP socket is
used as a fallback. All socket operations on the SMC socket are then
forwarded to the TCP socket. In case of poll, the file-&gt;private_data
pointer references the SMC socket because the TCP socket has no file
assigned. This causes tcp_poll to wait on the wrong socket.

<title>tipc: fix unsafe rcu locking when accessing publication list</title>

The binding table's 'cluster_scope' list is rcu protected to handle
races between threads changing the list and those traversing the list at
the same moment. We have now found that the function named_distribute()
uses the regular list_for_each() macro to traverse the said list.
Likewise, the function tipc_named_withdraw() is removing items from the
same list using the regular list_del() call. When these two functions
execute in parallel we see occasional crashes.

This commit fixes this by adding the missing _rcu() suffixes.

<title>tipc: initialize broadcast link stale counter correctly</title>

<content type='text'>
In the commit referred to below we added link tolerance as an additional
criteria for declaring broadcast transmission "stale" and resetting the
unicast links to the affected node.

Unfortunately, this 'improvement' introduced two bugs, which each and
one alone cause only limited problems, but combined lead to seemingly
stochastic unicast link resets, depending on the amount of broadcast
traffic transmitted.

The first issue, a missing initialization of the 'tolerance' field of
the receiver broadcast link, was recently fixed by commit 047491ea334a
("tipc: set link tolerance correctly in broadcast link").

Ths second issue, where we omit to reset the 'stale_cnt' field of
the same link after a 'stale' period is over, leads to this counter
accumulating over time, and in the absence of the 'tolerance' criteria
leads to the above described symptoms. This commit adds the missing
initialization.

The reason why the noise above was complained by LOCKDEP is because we
nested to hold l-&gt;wakeupq.lock and l-&gt;inputq-&gt;lock in tipc_link_reset
function. In fact it's unnecessary to move skb buffer from l-&gt;wakeupq
queue to l-&gt;inputq queue while holding the two locks at the same time.
Instead, we can move skb buffers in l-&gt;wakeupq queue to a temporary
list first and then move the buffers of the temporary list to l-&gt;inputq
queue, which is also safe for us.

In tipc_sk_filter_rcv(), when we detect protocol messages with error we
call tipc_sk_conn_proto_rcv() and let it reset the connection and notify
the socket by calling sk-&gt;sk_state_change().

However, tipc_sk_filter_rcv() may have been called from the function
tipc_backlog_rcv(), in which case the socket lock is held and the socket
already awake. This means that the sk_state_change() call is ignored and
the error notification lost. Now the receive queue will remain empty and
the socket sleeps forever.

In this commit, we convert the protocol message into a connection abort
message and enqueue it into the socket's receive queue. By this addition
to the above state change we cover all conditions.

In the patch referred to below we added link tolerance as an additional
criteria for declaring broadcast transmission "stale" and resetting the
affected links.

However, the 'tolerance' field of the broadcast link is never set, and
remains at zero. This renders the whole commit without the intended
improving effect, but luckily also with no negative effect.

In this commit we add the missing initialization.
