<title>rbtree: empty nodes have no color</title>

<id>4c199a93a2d36b277a9fd209a0f2793f8460a215</id>
<content type='text'>
Empty nodes have no color.  We can make use of this property to simplify
the code emitted by the RB_EMPTY_NODE and RB_CLEAR_NODE macros.  Also,
we can get rid of the rb_init_node function which had been introduced by
commit 88d19cf37952 ("timers: Add rb_init_node() to allow for stack
allocated rb nodes") to avoid some issue with the empty node's color not
being initialized.

I'm not sure what the RB_EMPTY_NODE checks in rb_prev() / rb_next() are
doing there, though.  axboe introduced them in commit 10fd48f2376d
("rbtree: fixed reversed RB_EMPTY_NODE and rb_next/prev").  The way I
see it, the 'empty node' abstraction is only used by rbtree users to
flag nodes that they haven't inserted in any rbtree, so asking the
predecessor or successor of such nodes doesn't make any sense.

One final rb_init_node() caller was recently added in sysctl code to
implement faster sysctl name lookups.  This code doesn't make use of
RB_EMPTY_NODE at all, and from what I could see it only called
rb_init_node() under the mistaken assumption that such initialization was
required before node insertion.

<title>KEYS: Add payload preparsing opportunity prior to key instantiate or update</title>
<updated>2012-10-08T03:19:48+00:00</updated>

<id>cf7f601c067994f371ba77721d1e45fce61a4569</id>
<content type='text'>
Give the key type the opportunity to preparse the payload prior to the
instantiation and update routines being called.  This is done with the
provision of two new key type operations:

	int (*preparse)(struct key_preparsed_payload *prep);
	void (*free_preparse)(struct key_preparsed_payload *prep);

If the first operation is present, then it is called before key creation (in
the add/update case) or before the key semaphore is taken (in the update and
instantiate cases).  The second operation is called to clean up if the first
was called.

preparse() is given the opportunity to fill in the following structure:

	struct key_preparsed_payload {
		char		*description;
		void		*type_data[2];
		void		*payload;
		const void	*data;
		size_t		datalen;
		size_t		quotalen;
	};

Before the preparser is called, the first three fields will have been cleared,
the payload pointer and size will be stored in data and datalen and the default
quota size from the key_type struct will be stored into quotalen.

The preparser may parse the payload in any way it likes and may store data in
the type_data[] and payload fields for use by the instantiate() and update()
ops.

The preparser may also propose a description for the key by attaching it as a
string to the description field.  This can be used by passing a NULL or ""
description to the add_key() system call or the key_create_or_update()
function.  This cannot work with request_key() as that required the description
to tell the upcall about the key to be created.

This, for example permits keys that store PGP public keys to generate their own
name from the user ID and public key fingerprint in the key.

The instantiate() and update() operations are then modified to look like this:

	int (*instantiate)(struct key *key, struct key_preparsed_payload *prep);
	int (*update)(struct key *key, struct key_preparsed_payload *prep);

and the new payload data is passed in *prep, whether or not it was preparsed.

In write_partial_msg_pages(), pages need to be kmapped in order to
perform a CRC-32c calculation on them.  As an artifact of the way
this code used to be structured, the kunmap() call was separated
from the kmap() call and both were done conditionally.  But the
conditions under which the kmap() and kunmap() calls were made
differed, so there was a chance a kunmap() call would be done on a
page that had not been mapped.

The symptom of this was tripping a BUG() in kunmap_high() when
pkmap_count[nr] became 0.

<title>libceph: avoid truncation due to racing banners</title>

<id>6d4221b53707486dfad3f5bfe568d2ce7f4c9863</id>
<content type='text'>
Because the Ceph client messenger uses a non-blocking connect, it is
possible for the sending of the client banner to race with the
arrival of the banner sent by the peer.

When ceph_sock_state_change() notices the connect has completed, it
schedules work to process the socket via con_work().  During this
time the peer is writing its banner, and arrival of the peer banner
races with con_work().

If con_work() calls try_read() before the peer banner arrives, there
is nothing for it to do, after which con_work() calls try_write() to
send the client's banner.  In this case Ceph's protocol negotiation
can complete succesfully.

The server-side messenger immediately sends its banner and addresses
after accepting a connect request, *before* actually attempting to
read or verify the banner from the client.  As a result, it is
possible for the banner from the server to arrive before con_work()
calls try_read().  If that happens, try_read() will read the banner
and prepare protocol negotiation info via prepare_write_connect().
prepare_write_connect() calls con_out_kvec_reset(), which discards
the as-yet-unsent client banner.  Next, con_work() calls
try_write(), which sends the protocol negotiation info rather than
the banner that the peer is expecting.

The result is that the peer sees an invalid banner, and the client
reports "negotiation failed".

Fix this by moving con_out_kvec_reset() out of
prepare_write_connect() to its callers at all locations except the
one where the banner might still need to be sent.

arrival of the banner sent by the peer.

When ceph_sock_state_change() notices the connect has completed, it
schedules work to process the socket via con_work().  During this
time the peer is writing its banner, and arrival of the peer banner
races with con_work().

If con_work() calls try_read() before the peer banner arrives, there
is nothing for it to do, after which con_work() calls try_write() to
send the client's banner.  In this case Ceph's protocol negotiation
can complete succesfully.

The server-side messenger immediately sends its banner and addresses
after accepting a connect request, *before* actually attempting to
read or verify the banner from the client.  As a result, it is
possible for the banner from the server to arrive before con_work()
calls try_read().  If that happens, try_read() will read the banner
and prepare protocol negotiation info via prepare_write_connect().
prepare_write_connect() calls con_out_kvec_reset(), which discards
the as-yet-unsent client banner.  Next, con_work() calls
try_write(), which sends the protocol negotiation info rather than
the banner that the peer is expecting.

The result is that the peer sees an invalid banner, and the client
reports "negotiation failed".

Fix this by moving con_out_kvec_reset() out of
prepare_write_connect() to its callers at all locations except the
one where the banner might still need to be sent.
