net/rds: RDS-TCP: only initiate reconnect attempt on outgoing TCP socket.

2015-05-09T20:03:28+00:00

When the peer of an RDS-TCP connection restarts, a reconnect
attempt should only be made from the active side  of the TCP
connection, i.e. the side that has a transient TCP port
number. Do not add the passive side of the TCP connection
to the c_hash_node and thus avoid triggering rds_queue_reconnect()
for passive rds connections.

net/rds: RDS-TCP: Always create a new rds_sock for an incoming connection.

2015-05-09T20:03:27+00:00

When running RDS over TCP, the active (client) side connects to the
listening ("passive") side at the RDS_TCP_PORT.  After the connection
is established, if the client side reboots (potentially without even
sending a FIN) the server still has a TCP socket in the esablished
state.  If the server-side now gets a new SYN comes from the client
with a different client port, TCP will create a new socket-pair, but
the RDS layer will incorrectly pull up the old rds_connection (which
is still associated with the stale t_sock and RDS socket state).

This patch corrects this behavior by having rds_tcp_accept_one()
always create a new connection for an incoming TCP SYN.
The rds and tcp state associated with the old socket-pair is cleaned
up via the rds_tcp_state_change() callback which would typically be
invoked in most cases when the client-TCP sends a FIN on TCP restart,
triggering a transition to CLOSE_WAIT state. In the rarer event of client
death without a FIN, TCP_KEEPALIVE probes on the socket will detect
the stale socket, and the TCP transition to CLOSE state will trigger
the RDS state cleanup.

net/rds: Fix new sparse warning

2015-05-04T19:23:06+00:00

c0adf54a109 introduced new sparse warnings:
  CHECK   /home/dahern/kernels/linux.git/net/rds/ib_cm.c
net/rds/ib_cm.c:191:34: warning: incorrect type in initializer (different base types)
net/rds/ib_cm.c:191:34:    expected unsigned long long [unsigned] [usertype] dp_ack_seq
net/rds/ib_cm.c:191:34:    got restricted __be64 
net/rds/ib_cm.c:194:51: warning: cast to restricted __be64

The temporary variable for sequence number should have been declared as __be64
rather than u64. Make it so.

net/rds: fix unaligned memory access

2015-05-04T03:39:01+00:00

rdma_conn_param private data is copied using memcpy after headers such
as cma_hdr (see cma_resolve_ib_udp as example). so the start of the
private data is aligned to the end of the structure that come before. if
this structure end with u32 the meaning is that the start of the private
data will be 4 bytes aligned. structures that use u8/u16/u32/u64 are
naturally aligned but in case the structure start is not 8 bytes aligned,
all u64 members of this structure will not be aligned. to solve this issue
we must use special macros that allow unaligned access to those
unaligned members.

Addresses the following kernel log seen when attempting to use RDMA:

Kernel unaligned access at TPC[10507a88] rds_ib_cm_connect_complete+0x1bc/0x1e0 [rds_rdma]

RDS: make sure not to loop forever inside rds_send_xmit

2015-04-08T19:17:32+00:00

If a determined set of concurrent senders keep the send queue full,
we can loop forever inside rds_send_xmit.  This fix has two parts.

First we are dropping out of the while(1) loop after we've processed a
large batch of messages.

Second we add a generation number that gets bumped each time the
xmit bit lock is acquired.  If someone else has jumped in and
made progress in the queue, we skip our goto restart.

RDS: only use passive connections when addresses match

2015-04-08T19:17:23+00:00

Passive connections were added for the case where one loopback IB
connection between identical addresses needs another connection to store
the second QP.  Unfortunately, they were also created in the case where
the addesses differ and we already have both QPs.

This lead to a message reordering bug.

- two different IB interfaces and addresses on a machine: A B
- traffic is sent from A to B
- connection from A-B is created, connect request sent
- listening accepts connect request, B-A is created
- traffic flows, next_rx is incremented
- unacked messages exist on the retrans list
- connection A-B is shut down, new connect request sent
- listen sees existing loopback B-A, creates new passive B-A
- retrans messages are sent and delivered because of 0 next_rx

The problem is that the second connection request saw the previously
existing parent connection.  Instead of using it, and using the existing
next_rx_seq state for the traffic between those IPs, it mistakenly
thought that it had to create a passive connection.

We fix this by only using passive connections in the special case where
laddr and faddr match.  In this case we'll only ever have one parent
sending connection requests and one passive connection created as the
listening path sees the existing parent connection which initiated the
request.

Conflicts:
	drivers/net/ethernet/emulex/benet/be_main.c
	net/core/sysctl_net_core.c
	net/ipv4/inet_diag.c

The be_main.c conflict resolution was really tricky.  The conflict
hunks generated by GIT were very unhelpful, to say the least.  It
split functions in half and moved them around, when the real actual
conflict only existed solely inside of one function, that being
be_map_pci_bars().

So instead, to resolve this, I checked out be_main.c from the top
of net-next, then I applied the be_main.c changes from 'net' since
the last time I merged.  And this worked beautifully.

The inet_diag.c and sysctl_net_core.c conflicts were simple
overlapping changes, and were easily to resolve.

rds: avoid potential stack overflow

2015-03-12T04:28:01+00:00

The rds_iw_update_cm_id function stores a large 'struct rds_sock' object
on the stack in order to pass a pair of addresses. This happens to just
fit withint the 1024 byte stack size warning limit on x86, but just
exceed that limit on ARM, which gives us this warning:

net/rds/iw_rdma.c:200:1: warning: the frame size of 1056 bytes is larger than 1024 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=]

As the use of this large variable is basically bogus, we can rearrange
the code to not do that. Instead of passing an rds socket into
rds_iw_get_device, we now just pass the two addresses that we have
available in rds_iw_update_cm_id, and we change rds_iw_get_mr accordingly,
to create two address structures on the stack there.

net: Remove iocb argument from sendmsg and recvmsg

2015-03-02T18:06:31+00:00

After TIPC doesn't depend on iocb argument in its internal
implementations of sendmsg() and recvmsg() hooks defined in proto
structure, no any user is using iocb argument in them at all now.
Then we can drop the redundant iocb argument completely from kinds of
implementations of both sendmsg() and recvmsg() in the entire
networking stack.
