2021-03-17tipc: simplify api between binding table and topology serverJon Maloy1-28/+31
The function tipc_report_overlap() is called from the binding table with numerous parameters taken from an instance of struct publication. A closer look reveals that it always is safe to send along a pointer to the instance itself, and hence reduce the call signature. We do that in this commit.

2018-04-12tipc: fix unbalanced reference counterJon Maloy1-1/+4
When a topology subscription is created, we may encounter (or KASAN may provoke) a failure to create a corresponding service instance in the binding table. Instead of letting the tipc_nametbl_subscribe() report the failure back to the caller, the function just makes a warning printout and returns, without incrementing the subscription reference counter as expected by the caller. This makes the caller believe that the subscription was successful, so it will at a later moment try to unsubscribe the item. This involves a sub_put() call. Since the reference counter never was incremented in the first place, we get a premature delete of the subscription item, followed by a "use-after-free" warning. We fix this by adding a return value to tipc_nametbl_subscribe() and make the caller aware of the failure to subscribe. This bug seems to always have been around, but this fix only applies back to the commit shown below. Given the low risk of this happening we believe this to be sufficient.

2018-04-04tipc: Fix missing list initializations in struct tipc_subscriptionJon Maloy1-0/+2
When an item of struct tipc_subscription is created, we fail to initialize the two lists aggregated into the struct. This has so far never been a problem, since the items are just added to a root object by list_add(), which does not require the addee list to be pre-initialized. However, syzbot is provoking situations where this addition fails, whereupon the attempted removal if the item from the list causes a crash. This problem seems to always have been around, despite that the code for creating this object was rewritten in commit 242e82cc95f6 ("tipc: collapse subscription creation functions"), which is still in net-next. We fix this for that commit by initializing the two lists properly.

2018-02-16tipc: make struct tipc_server private for server.cJon Maloy1-60/+4
In order to narrow the interface and dependencies between the topology server and the subscription/binding table functionality we move struct tipc_server inside the file server.c. This requires some code adaptations in other files, but those are mostly minor. The most important change is that we have to move the start/stop functions for the topology server to server.c, where they logically belong anyway.

2018-02-16tipc: simplify endianness handling in topology subscriberJon Maloy1-52/+31
Because of the requirement for total distribution transparency, users send subscriptions and receive topology events in their own host format. It is up to the topology server to determine this format and do the correct conversions to and from its own host format when needed. Until now, this has been handled in a rather non-transparent way inside the topology server and subscriber code, leading to unnecessary complexity when creating subscriptions and issuing events. We now improve this situation by adding two new macros, tipc_sub_read() and tipc_evt_write(). Both those functions calculate the need for conversion internally before performing their respective operations. Hence, all handling of such conversions become transparent to the rest of the code.

2018-02-16tipc: simplify interaction between subscription and topology connectionJon Maloy1-21/+19
The message transmission and reception in the topology server is more generic than is currently necessary. By basing the funtionality on the fact that we only send items of type struct tipc_event and always receive items of struct tipc_subcr we can make several simplifications, and also get rid of some unnecessary dynamic memory allocations.

2018-02-16tipc: eliminate struct tipc_subscriberJon Maloy1-143/+30
It is unnecessary to keep two structures, struct tipc_conn and struct tipc_subscriber, with a one-to-one relationship and still with different life cycles. The fact that the two often run in different contexts, and still may access each other via direct pointers constitutes an additional hazard, something we have experienced at several occasions, and still see happening. We have identified at least two remaining problems that are easier to fix if we simplify the topology server data structure somewhat. - When there is a race between a subscription up/down event and a timeout event, it is fully possible that the former might be delivered after the latter, leading to confusion for the receiver. - The function tipc_subcrp_timeout() is executing in interrupt context, while the following call chain is at least theoretically possible: tipc_subscrp_timeout() tipc_subscrp_send_event() tipc_conn_sendmsg() conn_put() tipc_conn_kref_release() sock_release(sock) I.e., we end up calling a function that might try to sleep in interrupt context. To eliminate this, we need to ensure that the tipc_conn structure and the socket, as well as the subscription instances, only are deleted in work queue context, i.e., after the timeout event really has been sent out. We now remove this unnecessary complexity, by merging data and functionality of the subscriber structure into struct tipc_conn and the associated file server.c. We thereafter add a spinlock and a new 'inactive' state to the subscription structure. Using those, both problems described above can be easily solved.

2018-02-16tipc: remove unnecessary function pointersJon Maloy1-21/+6

2018-02-16tipc: remove redundant code in topology serverJon Maloy1-3/+1
The socket handling in the topology server is unnecessarily generic.

2018-01-16tipc: fix race condition at topology server receiveJon Maloy1-10/+11
We have identified a race condition during reception of socket events and messages in the topology server. - The function tipc_close_conn() is releasing the corresponding struct tipc_subscriber instance without considering that there may still be items in the receive work queue. When those are scheduled, in the function tipc_receive_from_work(), they are using the subscriber pointer stored in struct tipc_conn, without first checking if this is valid or not. This will sometimes lead to crashes, as the next call of tipc_conn_recvmsg() will access the now deleted item. We fix this by making the usage of this pointer conditional on whether the connection is active or not. I.e., we check the condition test_bit(CF_CONNECTED) before making the call tipc_conn_recvmsg(). - Since the two functions may be running on different cores, the condition test described above is not enough. tipc_close_conn() may come in between and delete the subscriber item after the condition test is done, but before tipc_conn_recv_msg() is finished. This happens less frequently than the problem described above, but leads to the same symptoms. We fix this by using the existing sk_callback_lock for mutual exclusion in the two functions. In addition, we have to move a call to tipc_conn_terminate() outside the mentioned lock to avoid deadlock.

2018-01-09tipc: improve groupcast scope handlingJon Maloy1-3/+7
When a member joins a group, it also indicates a binding scope. This makes it possible to create both node local groups, invisible to other nodes, as well as cluster global groups, visible everywhere. In order to avoid that different members end up having permanently differing views of group size and memberhip, we must inhibit locally and globally bound members from joining the same group. We do this by using the binding scope as an additional separator between groups. I.e., a member must ignore all membership events from sockets using a different scope than itself, and all lookups for message destinations must require an exact match between the message's lookup scope and the potential target's binding scope. Apart from making it possible to create local groups using the same identity on different nodes, a side effect of this is that it now also becomes possible to create a cluster global group with the same identity across the same nodes, without interfering with the local groups.

2018-01-09tipc: add option to suppress PUBLISH events for pre-existing publicationsJon Maloy1-4/+6
Currently, when a user is subscribing for binding table publications, he will receive a PUBLISH event for all already existing matching items in the binding table. However, a group socket making a subscriptions doesn't need this initial status update from the binding table, because it has already scanned it during the join operation. Worse, the multiplicatory effect of issuing mutual events for dozens or hundreds group members within a short time frame put a heavy load on the topology server, with the end result that scale out operations on a big group tend to take much longer than needed. We now add a new filter option, TIPC_SUB_NO_STATUS, for topology server subscriptions, so that this initial avalanche of events is suppressed. This change, along with the previous commit, significantly improves the range and speed of group scale out operations. We keep the new option internal for the tipc driver, at least for now.

In commit, 139bb36f754a ("tipc: advance the time of deleting subscription from subscriber->subscrp_list"), we delete the subscription from the subscribers list and from nametable unconditionally. This leads to the following bug if the timer running tipc_subscrp_timeout() in another CPU accesses the subscription list after the subscription delete request.

2017-03-28tipc: adjust the policy of holding subscription krefYing Xue1-6/+2
When a new subscription object is inserted into name_seq->subscriptions list, it's under name_seq->lock protection; when a subscription is deleted from the list, it's also under the same lock protection; similarly, when accessing a subscription by going through subscriptions list, the entire process is also protected by the name_seq->lock. Therefore, if subscription refcount is increased before it's inserted into subscriptions list, and its refcount is decreased after it's deleted from the list, it will be unnecessary to hold refcount at all before accessing subscription object which is obtained by going through subscriptions list under name_seq->lock protection.

2017-03-28tipc: advance the time of deleting subscription from subscriber->subscrp_listYing Xue1-7/+2
After a subscription object is created, it's inserted into its subscriber subscrp_list list under subscriber lock protection, similarly, before it's destroyed, it should be first removed from its subscriber->subscrp_list. Since the subscription list is accessed with subscriber lock, all the subscriptions are valid during the lock duration. Hence in tipc_subscrb_subscrp_delete(), we remove subscription get/put and the extra subscriber unlock/lock. After this change, the subscriptions refcount cleanup is very simple and does not access any lock.

2017-01-24tipc: add subscription refcount to avoid invalid deleteParthasarathy Bhuvaragan1-54/+70
Until now, the subscribers keep track of the subscriptions using reference count at subscriber level. At subscription cancel or subscriber delete, we delete the subscription only if the timer was pending for the subscription. This approach is incorrect as: 1. del_timer() is not SMP safe, if on CPU0 the check for pending timer returns true but CPU1 might schedule the timer callback thereby deleting the subscription. Thus when CPU0 is scheduled, it deletes an invalid subscription. 2. We export tipc_subscrp_report_overlap(), which accesses the subscription pointer multiple times. Meanwhile the subscription timer can expire thereby freeing the subscription and we might continue to access the subscription pointer leading to memory violations. In this commit, we introduce subscription refcount to avoid deleting an invalid subscription.

2016-04-14tipc: fix a race condition leading to subscriber refcnt bugParthasarathy Bhuvaragan1-2/+2
Until now, the requests sent to topology server are queued to a workqueue by the generic server framework. These messages are processed by worker threads and trigger the registered callbacks. To reduce latency on uniprocessor systems, explicit rescheduling is performed using cond_resched() after MAX_RECV_MSG_COUNT(25) messages. This implementation on SMP systems leads to an subscriber refcnt error as described below: When a worker thread yields by calling cond_resched() in a SMP system, a new worker is created on another CPU to process the pending workitem. Sometimes the sleeping thread wakes up before the new thread finishes execution. This breaks the assumption on ordering and being single threaded. The fault is more frequent when MAX_RECV_MSG_COUNT is lowered. If the first thread was processing subscription create and the second thread processing close(), the close request will free the subscriber and the create request oops as follows: [31.224137] WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 266 at include/linux/kref.h:46 tipc_subscrb_rcv_cb+0x317/0x380 [tipc] [31.228143] CPU: 2 PID: 266 Comm: kworker/u8:1 Not tainted 4.5.0+ #97 [31.228377] Workqueue: tipc_rcv tipc_recv_work [tipc] [...] [31.228377] Call Trace: [31.228377] [<ffffffff812fbb6b>] dump_stack+0x4d/0x72 [31.228377] [<ffffffff8105a311>] __warn+0xd1/0xf0 [31.228377] [<ffffffff8105a3fd>] warn_slowpath_null+0x1d/0x20 [31.228377] [<ffffffffa0098067>] tipc_subscrb_rcv_cb+0x317/0x380 [tipc] [31.228377] [<ffffffffa00a4984>] tipc_receive_from_sock+0xd4/0x130 [tipc] [31.228377] [<ffffffffa00a439b>] tipc_recv_work+0x2b/0x50 [tipc] [31.228377] [<ffffffff81071925>] process_one_work+0x145/0x3d0 [31.246554] ---[ end trace c3882c9baa05a4fd ]--- [31.248327] BUG: spinlock bad magic on CPU#2, kworker/u8:1/266 [31.249119] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000428 [31.249323] IP: [<ffffffff81099d0c>] spin_dump+0x5c/0xe0 [31.249323] PGD 0 [31.249323] Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP In this commit, we - rename tipc_conn_shutdown() to tipc_conn_release(). - move connection release callback execution from tipc_close_conn() to a new function tipc_sock_release(), which is executed before we free the connection.

Until now, during subscription creation the mod_time() & tipc_subscrb_get() are called after releasing the subscriber spin lock. In a SMP system when performing a subscription creation, if the subscription timeout occurs simultaneously (the timer is scheduled to run on another CPU) then the timer thread might decrement the subscribers refcount before the create thread increments the refcount. This can be simulated by creating subscription with timeout=0 and sometimes the timeout occurs before the create request is complete.

2016-02-06tipc: hold subscriber->lock for tipc_nametbl_subscribe()Parthasarathy Bhuvaragan1-2/+2
Until now, while creating a subscription the subscriber lock protects only the subscribers subscription list and not the nametable. The call to tipc_nametbl_subscribe() is outside the lock. However, at subscription timeout and cancel both the subscribers subscription list and the nametable are protected by the subscriber lock. This asymmetric locking mechanism leads to the following problem: In a SMP system, the timer can be fire on another core before the create request is complete. When the timer thread calls tipc_nametbl_unsubscribe() before create thread calls tipc_nametbl_subscribe(), we get a nullptr exception. This can be simulated by creating subscription with timeout=0 and sometimes the timeout occurs before the create request is complete.

Until now, the subscribers endianness for a subscription create/cancel request is determined as: swap = !(s->filter & (TIPC_SUB_PORTS | TIPC_SUB_SERVICE)) The checks are performed only for port/service subscriptions. The swap calculation is incorrect if the filter in the subscription cancellation request is set to TIPC_SUB_CANCEL (it's a malformed cancel request, as the corresponding subscription create filter is missing). Thus, the check if the request is for cancellation fails and the request is treated as a subscription create request. The subscription creation fails as the request is illegal, which terminates this connection. In this commit we determine the endianness by including TIPC_SUB_CANCEL, which will set swap correctly and the request is processed as a cancellation request.

In 'commit 7fe8097cef5f ("tipc: fix nullpointer bug when subscribing to events")', we terminate the connection if the subscription creation fails. In the same commit, the subscription creation result was based on the value of subscription pointer (set in the function) instead of the return code. Unfortunately, the same function also handles subscription cancellation request. For a subscription cancellation request, the subscription pointer cannot be set. Thus the connection is terminated during cancellation request. In this commit, we move the subcription cancel check outside of tipc_subscrp_create(). Hence, - tipc_subscrp_create() will create a subscripton - tipc_subscrb_rcv_cb() will subscribe or cancel a subscription.

Until now, struct tipc_subscriber has duplicate fields for type, upper and lower (as member of struct tipc_name_seq) at: 1. as member seq in struct tipc_subscription 2. as member seq in struct tipc_subscr, which is contained in struct tipc_event The former structure contains the type, upper and lower values in network byte order and the later contains the intact copy of the request. The struct tipc_subscription contains a field swap to determine if request needs network byte order conversion. Thus by using swap, we can convert the request when required instead of duplicating it.

2016-02-06tipc: remove incorrect check for subscription timeout valueParthasarathy Bhuvaragan1-2/+1
Until now, during subscription creation we set sub->timeout by converting the timeout request value in milliseconds to jiffies. This is followed by setting the timeout value in the timer if sub->timeout != TIPC_WAIT_FOREVER. For a subscription create request with a timeout value of TIPC_WAIT_FOREVER, msecs_to_jiffies(TIPC_WAIT_FOREVER) returns MAX_JIFFY_OFFSET (0xfffffffe). This is not equal to TIPC_WAIT_FOREVER (0xffffffff). In this commit, we remove this check.

2016-01-29tipc: fix connection abort during subscription cancelParthasarathy Bhuvaragan1-6/+5
In 'commit 7fe8097cef5f ("tipc: fix nullpointer bug when subscribing to events")', we terminate the connection if the subscription creation fails. In the same commit, the subscription creation result was based on the value of the subscription pointer (set in the function) instead of the return code. Unfortunately, the same function tipc_subscrp_create() handles subscription cancel request. For a subscription cancellation request, the subscription pointer cannot be set. Thus if a subscriber has several subscriptions and cancels any of them, the connection is terminated. In this commit, we terminate the connection based on the return value of tipc_subscrp_create().

2015-05-04tipc: adjust locking policy of subscriptionYing Xue1-2/+4
Currently subscriber's lock protects not only subscriber's subscription list but also all subscriptions linked into the list. However, as all members of subscription are never changed after they are initialized, it's unnecessary for subscription to be protected under subscriber's lock. If the lock is used to only protect subscriber's subscription list, the adjustment not only makes the locking policy simpler, but also helps to avoid a deadlock which may happen once creating a subscription is failed.

2015-05-04tipc: involve reference counter for subscriberYing Xue1-68/+52
At present subscriber's lock is used to protect the subscription list of subscriber as well as subscriptions linked into the list. While one or all subscriptions are deleted through iterating the list, the subscriber's lock must be held. Meanwhile, as deletion of subscription may happen in subscription timer's handler, the lock must be grabbed in the function as well. When subscription's timer is terminated with del_timer_sync() during above iteration, subscriber's lock has to be temporarily released, otherwise, deadlock may occur. However, the temporary release may cause the double free of a subscription as the subscription is not disconnected from the subscription list. Now if a reference counter is introduced to subscriber, subscription's timer can be asynchronously stopped with del_timer(). As a result, the issue is not only able to be fixed, but also relevant code is pretty readable and understandable.

2015-05-04tipc: rename functions defined in subscr.cYing Xue1-64/+52
When a topology server accepts a connection request from its client, it allocates a connection instance and a tipc_subscriber structure object. The former is used to communicate with client, and the latter is often treated as a subscriber which manages all subscription events requested from a same client. When a topology server receives a request of subscribing name services from a client through the connection, it creates a tipc_subscription structure instance which is seen as a subscription recording what name services are subscribed. In order to manage all subscriptions from a same client, topology server links them into the subscrp_list of the subscriber. So subscriber and subscription completely represents different meanings respectively, but function names associated with them make us so confused that we are unable to easily tell which function is against subscriber and which is to subscription. So we want to eliminate the confusion by renaming them. Signed-off-by: Ying Xue <ying.xue@windriver.com> Reviewed-by: Jon Maloy <jon.maloy@ericson.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2015-02-27tipc: fix nullpointer bug when subscribing to eventsErik Hugne1-19/+4
If a subscription request is sent to a topology server connection, and any error occurs (malformed request, oom or limit reached) while processing this request, TIPC should terminate the subscriber connection. While doing so, it tries to access fields in an already freed (or never allocated) subscription element leading to a nullpointer exception. We fix this by removing the subscr_terminate function and terminate the connection immediately upon any subscription failure.

TIPC establishes one subscriber server which allows users to subscribe their interesting name service status. After tipc supports namespace, one dedicated tipc stack instance is created for each namespace, and each instance can be deemed as one independent TIPC node. As a result, subscriber server must be built for each namespace.

TIPC name table is used to store the mapping relationship between TIPC service name and socket port ID. When tipc supports namespace, it allows users to publish service names only owned by a certain namespace. Therefore, every namespace must have its private name table to prevent service names published to one namespace from being contaminated by other service names in another namespace. Therefore, The name table global variable (ie, nametbl) and its lock must be moved to tipc_net structure, and a parameter of namespace must be added for necessary functions so that they can obtain name table variable defined in tipc_net structure.
