2018-07-20tipc: make link capability update thread safeJon Maloy1-0/+4
The commit referred to below introduced an update of the link capabilities field that is not safe. Given the recently added feature to remove idle node and link items after 5 minutes, there is a small risk that the update will happen at the very moment the targeted link is being removed. To avoid this we have to perform the update inside the node item's write lock protection.

2018-07-11tipc: check session number before accepting link protocol messagesJon Maloy1-1/+4
In some virtual environments we observe a significant higher number of packet reordering and delays than we have been used to traditionally. This makes it necessary with stricter checks on incoming link protocol messages' session number, which until now only has been validated for RESET messages. Since the other two message types, ACTIVATE and STATE messages also carry this number, it is easy to extend the validation check to those messages. We also introduce a flag indicating if a link has a valid peer session number or not. This eliminates the mixing of 32- and 16-bit arithmethics we are currently using to achieve this.

2018-07-11tipc: add sequence number check for link STATE messagesJon Maloy1-0/+7
Some switch infrastructures produce huge amounts of packet duplicates. This becomes a problem if those messages are STATE/NACK protocol messages, causing unnecessary retransmissions of already accepted packets. We now introduce a unique sequence number per STATE protocol message so that duplicates can be identified and ignored. This will also be useful when tracing such cases, and to avert replay attacks when TIPC is encrypted. For compatibility reasons we have to introduce a new capability flag TIPC_LINK_PROTO_SEQNO to handle this new feature. Signed-off-by: Jon Maloy <jon.maloy@ericsson.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2018-07-07tipc: fix wrong return value from function tipc_node_try_addr()Jon Maloy1-2/+5
The function for checking if there is an node address conflict is supposed to return a suggestion for a new address if it finds a conflict, and zero otherwise. But in case the peer being checked is previously unknown it does instead return a "suggestion" for the checked address itself. This results in a DSC_TRIAL_FAIL_MSG being sent unecessarily to the peer, and sometimes makes the trial period starting over again.

2018-06-30tipc: Auto removal of peer down node instanceGhantaKrishnamurthy MohanKrishna1-11/+55
A peer node is considered down if there are no active links (or) lost contact to the node. In current implementation, a peer node instance is deleted either if a) TIPC module is removed (or) b) Application can use a netlink/iproute2 interface to delete a specific down node. Thus, a down node instance lives in the system forever, unless the application explicitly removes it. We fix this by deleting the nodes which are down for a specified amount of time (5 minutes). Existing node supervision timer is used to achieve this.

2018-06-30tipc: optimize function tipc_node_timeout()Tung Nguyen1-3/+5
In single-link usage, the function tipc_node_timeout() still iterates over the whole link array to handle each link. Given that the maximum number of bearers are 3, there are 2 redundant iterations with lock grab/release. Since this function is executing very frequently it makes sense to optimize it. This commit adds conditional checking to exit from the loop if the known number of configured links has already been accessed.

After the introduction of a 128-bit node identity it may be difficult for a user to correlate between this identity and the generated node hash address. We now try to make this easier by introducing a new ioctl() call for fetching a node identity by using the hash value as key.

2018-04-20tipc: confgiure and apply UDP bearer MTU on running linksGhantaKrishnamurthy MohanKrishna1-3/+9
Currently, we have option to configure MTU of UDP media. The configured MTU takes effect on the links going up after that moment. I.e, a user has to reset bearer to have new value applied across its links. This is confusing and disturbing on a running cluster. We now introduce the functionality to change the default UDP bearer MTU in struct tipc_bearer. Additionally, the links are updated dynamically, without any need for a reset, when bearer value is changed.

2018-04-18tipc: fix infinite loop when dumping link monitor summaryTung Nguyen1-7/+4
When configuring the number of used bearers to MAX_BEARER and issuing command "tipc link monitor summary", the command enters infinite loop in user space. This issue happens because function tipc_nl_node_dump_monitor() returns the wrong 'prev_bearer' value when all potential monitors have been scanned. The correct behavior is to always try to scan all monitors until either the netlink message is full, in which case we return the bearer identity of the affected monitor, or we continue through the whole bearer array until we can return MAX_BEARERS. This solution also caters for the case where there may be gaps in the bearer array.

2018-03-31tipc: permit overlapping service ranges in name tableJon Maloy1-1/+1
With the new RB tree structure for service ranges it becomes possible to solve an old problem; - we can now allow overlapping service ranges in the table. When inserting a new service range to the tree, we use 'lower' as primary key, and when necessary 'upper' as secondary key. Since there may now be multiple service ranges matching an indicated 'lower' value, we must also add the 'upper' value to the functions used for removing publications, so that the correct, corresponding range item can be found. These changes guarantee that a well-formed publication/withdrawal item from a peer node never will be rejected, and make it possible to eliminate the problematic backlog functionality we currently have for handling such cases.

2018-03-31tipc: replace name table service range array with rb treeJon Maloy1-2/+2
The current design of the binding table has an unnecessary memory consuming and complex data structure. It aggregates the service range items into an array, which is expanded by a factor two every time it becomes too small to hold a new item. Furthermore, the arrays never shrink when the number of ranges diminishes. We now replace this array with an RB tree that is holding the range items as tree nodes, each range directly holding a list of bindings. This, along with a few name changes, improves both readability and volume of the code, as well as reducing memory consumption and hopefully improving cache hit rate.

2018-03-23tipc: handle collisions of 32-bit node address hash valuesJon Maloy1-7/+78
When a 32-bit node address is generated from a 128-bit identifier, there is a risk of collisions which must be discovered and handled. We do this as follows: - We don't apply the generated address immediately to the node, but do instead initiate a 1 sec trial period to allow other cluster members to discover and handle such collisions. - During the trial period the node periodically sends out a new type of message, DSC_TRIAL_MSG, using broadcast or emulated broadcast, to all the other nodes in the cluster. - When a node is receiving such a message, it must check that the presented 32-bit identifier either is unused, or was used by the very same peer in a previous session. In both cases it accepts the request by not responding to it. - If it finds that the same node has been up before using a different address, it responds with a DSC_TRIAL_FAIL_MSG containing that address. - If it finds that the address has already been taken by some other node, it generates a new, unused address and returns it to the requester. - During the trial period the requesting node must always be prepared to accept a failure message, i.e., a message where a peer suggests a different (or equal) address to the one tried. In those cases it must apply the suggested value as trial address and restart the trial period. This algorithm ensures that in the vast majority of cases a node will have the same address before and after a reboot. If a legacy user configures the address explicitly, there will be no trial period and messages, so this protocol addition is completely backwards compatible.

We add a 128-bit node identity, as an alternative to the currently used 32-bit node address. For the sake of compatibility and to minimize message header changes we retain the existing 32-bit address field. When not set explicitly by the user, this field will be filled with a hash value generated from the much longer node identity, and be used as a shorthand value for the latter. We permit either the address or the identity to be set by configuration, but not both, so when the address value is set by a legacy user the corresponding 128-bit node identity is generated based on the that value.

2018-03-23tipc: remove restrictions on node address valuesJon Maloy1-6/+2
Nominally, TIPC organizes network nodes into a three-level network hierarchy consisting of the levels 'zone', 'cluster' and 'node'. This hierarchy is reflected in the node address format, - it is sub-divided into an 8-bit zone id, and 12 bit cluster id, and a 12-bit node id. However, the 'zone' and 'cluster' levels have in reality never been fully implemented,and never will be. The result of this has been that the first 20 bits the node identity structure have been wasted, and the usable node identity range within a cluster has been limited to 12 bits. This is starting to become a problem. In the following commits, we will need to be able to connect between nodes which are using the whole 32-bit value space of the node address. We therefore remove the restrictions on which values can be assigned to node identity, -it is from now on only a 32-bit integer with no assumed internal structure. Isolation between clusters is now achieved only by setting different values for the 'network id' field used during neighbor discovery, in practice leading to the latter becoming the new cluster identity. The rules for accepting discovery requests/responses from neighboring nodes now become: - If the user is using legacy address format on both peers, reception of discovery messages is subject to the legacy lookup domain check in addition to the cluster id check. - Otherwise, the discovery request/response is always accepted, provided both peers have the same network id. This secures backwards compatibility for users who have been using zone or cluster identities as cluster separators, instead of the intended 'network id'.

The socket level flow control is based on the assumption that incoming buffers meet the condition (skb->truesize / roundup(skb->len) <= 4), where the latter value is rounded off upwards to the nearest 1k number. This does empirically hold true for the device drivers we know, but we cannot trust that it will always be so, e.g., in a system with jumbo frames and very small packets. We now introduce a check for this condition at packet arrival, and if we find it to be false, we copy the packet to a new, smaller buffer, where the condition will be true.

2017-08-21tipc: don't reset stale broadcast send linkJon Paul Maloy1-10/+4
When the broadcast send link after 100 attempts has failed to transfer a packet to all peers, we consider it stale, and reset it. Thereafter it needs to re-synchronize with the peers, something currently done by just resetting and re-establishing all links to all peers. This has turned out to be overkill, with potentially unwanted consequences for the remaining cluster. A closer analysis reveals that this can be done much simpler. When this kind of failure happens, for reasons that may lie outside the TIPC protocol, it is typically only one peer which is failing to receive and acknowledge packets. It is hence sufficient to identify and reset the links only to that peer to resolve the situation, without having to reset the broadcast link at all. This solution entails a much lower risk of negative consequences for the own node as well as for the overall cluster. We implement this change in this commit.

2017-08-09tipc: remove premature ESTABLISH FSM event at link synchronizationJon Paul Maloy1-3/+1
When a link between two nodes come up, both endpoints will initially send out a STATE message to the peer, to increase the probability that the peer endpoint also is up when the first traffic message arrives. Thereafter, if the establishing link is the second link between two nodes, this first "traffic" message is a TUNNEL_PROTOCOL/SYNCH message, helping the peer to perform initial synchronization between the two links. However, the initial STATE message may be lost, in which case the SYNCH message will be the first one arriving at the peer. This should also work, as the SYNCH message itself will be used to take up the link endpoint before initializing synchronization. Unfortunately the code for this case is broken. Currently, the link is brought up through a tipc_link_fsm_evt(ESTABLISHED) when a SYNCH arrives, whereupon __tipc_node_link_up() is called to distribute the link slots and take the link into traffic. But, __tipc_node_link_up() is itself starting with a test for whether the link is up, and if true, returns without action. Clearly, the tipc_link_fsm_evt(ESTABLISHED) call is unnecessary, since tipc_node_link_up() is itself issuing such an event, but also harmful, since it inhibits tipc_node_link_up() to perform the test of its tasks, and the link endpoint in question hence is never taken into traffic. This problem has been exposed when we set up dual links between pre- and post-4.4 kernels, because the former ones don't send out the initial STATE message described above. We fix this by removing the unnecessary event call. Signed-off-by: Jon Maloy <jon.maloy@ericsson.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2017-01-24tipc: fix nametbl_lock soft lockup at node/link eventsParthasarathy Bhuvaragan1-2/+7
We trigger a soft lockup as we grab nametbl_lock twice if the node has a pending node up/down or link up/down event while: - we process an incoming named message in tipc_named_rcv() and perform an tipc_update_nametbl(). - we have pending backlog items in the name distributor queue during a nametable update using tipc_nametbl_publish() or tipc_nametbl_withdraw(). The following are the call chain associated: tipc_named_rcv() Grabs nametbl_lock tipc_update_nametbl() (publish/withdraw) tipc_node_subscribe()/unsubscribe() tipc_node_write_unlock() << lockup occurs if an outstanding node/link event exits, as we grabs nametbl_lock again >> tipc_nametbl_withdraw() Grab nametbl_lock tipc_named_process_backlog() tipc_update_nametbl() << rest as above >> The function tipc_node_write_unlock(), in addition to releasing the lock processes the outstanding node/link up/down events. To do this, we need to grab the nametbl_lock again leading to the lockup. In this commit we fix the soft lockup by introducing a fast variant of node_unlock(), where we just release the lock. We adapt the node_subscribe()/node_unsubscribe() to use the fast variants.

2017-01-20tipc: introduce replicast as transport option for multicastJon Paul Maloy1-9/+18
TIPC multicast messages are currently carried over a reliable 'broadcast link', making use of the underlying media's ability to transport packets as L2 broadcast or IP multicast to all nodes in the cluster. When the used bearer is lacking that ability, we can instead emulate the broadcast service by replicating and sending the packets over as many unicast links as needed to reach all identified destinations. We now introduce a new TIPC link-level 'replicast' service that does this.

2017-01-03tipc: reduce risk of user starvation during link congestionJon Paul Maloy1-10/+5
The socket code currently handles link congestion by either blocking and trying to send again when the congestion has abated, or just returning to the user with -EAGAIN and let him re-try later. This mechanism is prone to starvation, because the wakeup algorithm is non-atomic. During the time the link issues a wakeup signal, until the socket wakes up and re-attempts sending, other senders may have come in between and occupied the free buffer space in the link. This in turn may lead to a socket having to make many send attempts before it is successful. In extremely loaded systems we have observed latency times of several seconds before a low-priority socket is able to send out a message. In this commit, we simplify this mechanism and reduce the risk of the described scenario happening. When a message is attempted sent via a congested link, we now let it be added to the link's backlog queue anyway, thus permitting an oversubscription of one message per source socket. We still create a wakeup item and return an error code, hence instructing the sender to block or stop sending. Only when enough space has been freed up in the link's backlog queue do we issue a wakeup event that allows the sender to continue with the next message, if any. The fact that a socket now can consider a message sent even when the link returns a congestion code means that the sending socket code can be simplified. Also, since this is a good opportunity to get rid of the obsolete 'mtu change' condition in the three socket send functions, we now choose to refactor those functions completely.

2016-10-29tipc: fix broadcast link synchronization problemJon Paul Maloy1-1/+1
In commit 2d18ac4ba745 ("tipc: extend broadcast link initialization criteria") we tried to fix a problem with the initial synchronization of broadcast link acknowledge values. Unfortunately that solution is not sufficient to solve the issue. We have seen it happen that LINK_PROTOCOL/STATE packets with a valid non-zero unicast acknowledge number may bypass BCAST_PROTOCOL initialization, NAME_DISTRIBUTOR and other STATE packets with invalid broadcast acknowledge numbers, leading to premature opening of the broadcast link. When the bypassed packets finally arrive, they are inadvertently accepted, and the already correctly initialized acknowledge number in the broadcast receive link is overwritten by the invalid (zero) value of the said packets. After this the broadcast link goes stale. We now fix this by marking the packets where we know the acknowledge value is or may be invalid, and then ignoring the acks from those. To this purpose, we claim an unused bit in the header to indicate that the value is invalid. We set the bit to 1 in the initial BCAST_PROTOCOL synchronization packet and all initial ("bulk") NAME_DISTRIBUTOR packets, plus those LINK_PROTOCOL packets sent out before the broadcast links are fully synchronized. This minor protocol update is fully backwards compatible.

2016-09-02tipc: transfer broadcast nacks in link state messagesJon Paul Maloy1-2/+30
When we send broadcasts in clusters of more 70-80 nodes, we sometimes see the broadcast link resetting because of an excessive number of retransmissions. This is caused by a combination of two factors: 1) A 'NACK crunch", where loss of broadcast packets is discovered and NACK'ed by several nodes simultaneously, leading to multiple redundant broadcast retransmissions. 2) The fact that the NACKS as such also are sent as broadcast, leading to excessive load and packet loss on the transmitting switch/bridge. This commit deals with the latter problem, by moving sending of broadcast nacks from the dedicated BCAST_PROTOCOL/NACK message type to regular unicast LINK_PROTOCOL/STATE messages. We allocate 10 unused bits in word 8 of the said message for this purpose, and introduce a new capability bit, TIPC_BCAST_STATE_NACK in order to keep the change backwards compatible.

2016-06-15tipc: add neighbor monitoring frameworkJon Paul Maloy1-14/+12
TIPC based clusters are by default set up with full-mesh link connectivity between all nodes. Those links are expected to provide a short failure detection time, by default set to 1500 ms. Because of this, the background load for neighbor monitoring in an N-node cluster increases with a factor N on each node, while the overall monitoring traffic through the network infrastructure increases at a ~(N * (N - 1)) rate. Experience has shown that such clusters don't scale well beyond ~100 nodes unless we significantly increase failure discovery tolerance. This commit introduces a framework and an algorithm that drastically reduces this background load, while basically maintaining the original failure detection times across the whole cluster. Using this algorithm, background load will now grow at a rate of ~(2 * sqrt(N)) per node, and at ~(2 * N * sqrt(N)) in traffic overhead. As an example, each node will now have to actively monitor 38 neighbors in a 400-node cluster, instead of as before 399. This "Overlapping Ring Supervision Algorithm" is completely distributed and employs no centralized or coordinated state. It goes as follows: - Each node makes up a linearly ascending, circular list of all its N known neighbors, based on their TIPC node identity. This algorithm must be the same on all nodes. - The node then selects the next M = sqrt(N) - 1 nodes downstream from itself in the list, and chooses to actively monitor those. This is called its "local monitoring domain". - It creates a domain record describing the monitoring domain, and piggy-backs this in the data area of all neighbor monitoring messages (LINK_PROTOCOL/STATE) leaving that node. This means that all nodes in the cluster eventually (default within 400 ms) will learn about its monitoring domain. - Whenever a node discovers a change in its local domain, e.g., a node has been added or has gone down, it creates and sends out a new version of its node record to inform all neighbors about the change. - A node receiving a domain record from anybody outside its local domain matches this against its own list (which may not look the same), and chooses to not actively monitor those members of the received domain record that are also present in its own list. Instead, it relies on indications from the direct monitoring nodes if an indirectly monitored node has gone up or down. If a node is indicated lost, the receiving node temporarily activates its own direct monitoring towards that node in order to confirm, or not, that it is actually gone. - Since each node is actively monitoring sqrt(N) downstream neighbors, each node is also actively monitored by the same number of upstream neighbors. This means that all non-direct monitoring nodes normally will receive sqrt(N) indications that a node is gone. - A major drawback with ring monitoring is how it handles failures that cause massive network partitionings. If both a lost node and all its direct monitoring neighbors are inside the lost partition, the nodes in the remaining partition will never receive indications about the loss. To overcome this, each node also chooses to actively monitor some nodes outside its local domain. Those nodes are called remote domain "heads", and are selected in such a way that no node in the cluster will be more than two direct monitoring hops away. Because of this, each node, apart from monitoring the member of its local domain, will also typically monitor sqrt(N) remote head nodes. - As an optimization, local list status, domain status and domain records are marked with a generation number. This saves senders from unnecessarily conveying unaltered domain records, and receivers from performing unneeded re-adaptations of their node monitoring list, such as re-assigning domain heads. - As a measure of caution we have added the possibility to disable the new algorithm through configuration. We do this by keeping a threshold value for the cluster size; a cluster that grows beyond this value will switch from full-mesh to ring monitoring, and vice versa when it shrinks below the value. This means that if the threshold is set to a value larger than any anticipated cluster size (default size is 32) the new algorithm is effectively disabled. A patch set for altering the threshold value and for listing the table contents will follow shortly. - This change is fully backwards compatible.

2016-06-08tipc: change node timer unit from jiffies to msJon Paul Maloy1-8/+10
The node keepalive interval is recalculated at each timer expiration to catch any changes in the link tolerance, and stored in a field in struct tipc_node. We use jiffies as unit for the stored value. This is suboptimal, because it makes the calculation unnecessary complex, including two unit conversions. The conversions also lead to a rounding error that causes the link "abort limit" to be 3 in the normal case, instead of 4, as intended. This again leads to unnecessary link resets when the network is pushed close to its limit, e.g., in an environment with hundreds of nodes or namesapces. In this commit, we do instead let the keepalive value be calculated and stored in milliseconds, so that there is only one conversion and the rounding error is eliminated. We also remove a redundant "keepalive" field in struct tipc_link. This is remnant from the previous implementation.
