When we pull a received packet from a link's 'deferred packets' queue
for processing, its 'next' pointer is not cleared, and still refers to
the next packet in that queue, if any. This is incorrect, but caused
no harm before commit 40ba3cdf54 ("tipc:

This happens when the last fragment of a message has passed through the
the receiving link's 'deferred packets' queue, and at least one other
packet was added to that queue while it was there. After the fragment
chain with the complete message has been successfully delivered to the
receiving socket, it is released. Since 'next' pointer of the last
fragment in the released chain now is non-NULL, we get the crash shown
above.
We fix this by clearing the 'next' pointer of all received packets,
including those being pulled from the 'deferred' queue, before they
undergo any further processing.

'handler_enabled' is a global flag indicating whether the TIPC
signal handling service is enabled or not. The lack of lock
protection for this flag incurs a risk for contention, so that
a tipc_k_signal() call might queue a signal handler to a destroyed
signal queue, with unpredictable results. To correct this, we let
the already existing 'qitem_lock' protect the flag, as it already
does with the queue itself. This way, we ensure that the flag

The 'signal handler' service in TIPC is a mechanism that makes it
possible to postpone execution of functions, by launcing them into
a job queue for execution in a separate tasklet, independent of
the launching execution thread.
When we do rmmod on the tipc module, this service is stopped after
the network service. At the same time, the stopping of the network
service may itself launch jobs for execution, with the risk that these
functions may be scheduled for execution after the data structures
meant to be accessed by the job have already been deleted. We have
seen this happen, most often resulting in an oops.
This commit ensures that the signal handler is the very first to be
stopped when TIPC is shut down, so there are no surprises during
the cleanup of the other services.

This patch now always passes msg->msg_namelen as 0. recvmsg handlers must
set msg_namelen to the proper size <= sizeof(struct sockaddr_storage)
to return msg_name to the user.
This prevents numerous uninitialized memory leaks we had in the
recvmsg handlers and makes it harder for new code to accidentally leak
uninitialized memory.
Optimize for the case recvfrom is called with NULL as address. We don't
need to copy the address at all, so set it to NULL before invoking the
recvmsg handler. We can do so, because all the recvmsg handlers must
cope with the case a plain read() is called on them. read() also sets
msg_name to NULL.
Also document these changes in include/linux/net.h as suggested by David
Miller.
Changes since RFC:
Set msg->msg_name = NULL if user specified a NULL in msg_name but had a
non-null msg_namelen in verify_iovec/verify_compat_iovec. This doesn't
affect sendto as it would bail out earlier while trying to copy-in the
address. It also more naturally reflects the logic by the callers of
verify_iovec.
With this change in place I could remove "
if (!uaddr || msg_sys->msg_namelen == 0)
msg->msg_name = NULL
".
This change does not alter the user visible error logic as we ignore
msg_namelen as long as msg_name is NULL.
Also remove two unnecessary curly brackets in ___sys_recvmsg and change
comments to netdev style.

If appending a received fragment to the pending fragment chain
in a unicast link fails, the current code tries to force a retransmission
of the fragment by decrementing the 'next received sequence number'
field in the link. This is done under the assumption that the failure
is caused by an out-of-memory situation, an assumption that does
not hold true after the previous patch in this series.
A failure to append a fragment can now only be caused by a protocol
violation by the sending peer, and it must hence be assumed that it
is either malicious or buggy. Either way, the correct behavior is now
to reset the link instead of trying to revert its sequence number.
So, this is what we do in this commit.

When the first fragment of a long data data message is received on a link, a
reassembly buffer large enough to hold the data from this and all subsequent
fragments of the message is allocated. The payload of each new fragment is
copied into this buffer upon arrival. When the last fragment is received, the
reassembled message is delivered upwards to the port/socket layer.
Not only is this an inefficient approach, but it may also cause bursts of
reassembly failures in low memory situations. since we may fail to allocate
the necessary large buffer in the first place. Furthermore, after 100 subsequent
such failures the link will be reset, something that in reality aggravates the
situation.
To remedy this problem, this patch introduces a different approach. Instead of
allocating a big reassembly buffer, we now append the arriving fragments
to a reassembly chain on the link, and deliver the whole chain up to the
socket layer once the last fragment has been received. This is safe because
the retransmission layer of a TIPC link always delivers packets in strict
uninterrupted order, to the reassembly layer as to all other upper layers.
Hence there can never be more than one fragment chain pending reassembly at
any given time in a link, and we can trust (but still verify) that the
fragments will be chained up in the correct order.

When a message fragment is received in a broadcast or unicast link,
the reception code will append the fragment payload to a big reassembly
buffer through a call to the function tipc_recv_fragm(). However, after
the return of that call, the logics goes on and passes the fragment
buffer to the function tipc_net_route_msg(), which will simply drop it.
This behavior is a remnant from the now obsolete multi-cluster
functionality, and has no relevance in the current code base.
Although currently harmless, this unnecessary call would be fatal
after applying the next patch in this series, which introduces
a completely new reassembly algorithm. So we change the code to
eliminate the redundant call.

TIPC 'bearer' exists as an abstract concept, while 'media'
is deemed a specific implementation of a bearer, such as Ethernet
or Infiniband media. When a component inside TIPC wants to control
a specific media, it only needs to access the generic bearer API
to achieve this. However, in the current media implementations,
the 'bearer' name is also extensively used in media specific
function and variable names.
This may create confusion, so we choose to replace the term 'bearer'
with 'media' in all function names, variable names, and prefixes
where this is what really is meant.
Note that this change is cosmetic only, and no runtime behaviour

pfifo_fast is set as default traffic class queueing discipline. This

However, as long as there are packets waiting in band 0, band 1 won't
be processed.
Now all kind of TIPC type packet priorities are never set, that is,
their priorities are 0, so they are mapped to band 1 of pfifo_fast
qdisc. But, especially during link congestion, if link protocol packet
can be sent out as earlier as possible than other type of packets so
that protocol packet can arrive at peer endpoint in time, the peer
will timely reset its link timeout timer to keep the link alive.
So enhancing the priority of link protocol packets can meet the

As the new TIPC server infrastructure has been introduced, we can
now convert the TIPC topology server to it. We get two benefits
from doing this:
1) It simplifies the topology server locking policy. In the
original locking policy, we placed one spin lock pointer in the
tipc_subscriber structure to reuse the lock of the subscriber's
server port, controlling access to members of tipc_subscriber
instance. That is, we only used one lock to ensure both
tipc_port and tipc_subscriber members were safely accessed.
Now we introduce another spin lock for tipc_subscriber structure
only protecting themselves, to get a finer granularity locking
policy. Moreover, the change will allow us to make the topology
server code more readable and maintainable.
2) It fixes a bug where sent subscription events may be lost when
the topology port is congested. Using the new service, the
topology server now queues sent events into an outgoing buffer,
and then wakes up a sender process which has been blocked in
workqueue context. The process will keep picking events from the
buffer and send them to their respective subscribers, using the
kernel socket interface, until the buffer is empty. Even if the
socket is congested during transmission there is no risk that
events may be dropped, since the sender process may block when
needed.
Some minor reordering of initialization is done, since we now
have a scenario where the topology server must be started after
socket initialization has taken place, as the former depends
on the latter. And overall, we see a simplification of the
TIPC subscriber code in making this changeover.

TIPC has two internal servers, one providing a subscription
service for topology events, and another providing the
configuration interface. These servers have previously been running
in BH context, accessing the TIPC-port (aka native) API directly.
Apart from these servers, even the TIPC socket implementation is
partially built on this API.
As this API may simultaneously be called via different paths and in
different contexts, a complex and costly lock policiy is required
in order to protect TIPC internal resources.
To eliminate the need for this complex lock policiy, we introduce
a new, generic service API that uses kernel sockets for message
passing instead of the native API. Once the toplogy and configuration
servers are converted to use this new service, all code pertaining
to the native API can be removed. This entails a significant
reduction in code amount and complexity, and opens up for a complete
rework of the locking policy in TIPC.
The new service also solves another problem:
As the current topology server works in BH context, it cannot easily
be blocked when sending of events fails due to congestion. In such
cases events may have to be silently dropped, something that is
unacceptable. Therefore, the new service keeps a dedicated outbound
queue receiving messages from BH context. Once messages are
inserted into this queue, we will immediately schedule a work from a
special workqueue. This way, messages/events from the topology server
are in reality sent in process context, and the server can block
if necessary.
Analogously, there is a new workqueue for receiving messages. Once a
notification about an arriving message is received in BH context, we
schedule a work from the receive workqueue to do the job of
receiving the message in process context.
As both sending and receive messages are now finished in processes,
subscribed events cannot be dropped any more.
As of this commit, this new server infrastructure is built, but
not actually yet called by the existing TIPC code, but since the
conversion changes required in order to use it are significant,
the addition is kept here as a separate commit.

TIPC's implied connect feature, aka piggyback connect, allows
applications to save one syscall and all SYN/SYN-ACK signalling
overhead when setting up a connection. Until now, this has only
been supported for SEQPACKET sockets. Here, we make it possible
to use this feature even with stream sockets.
At the connecting side, the connection is completed when the
first data message arrives from the accepting peer. This means
that we must allow the connecting user to call blocking recv()
before the socket has reached state SS_CONNECTED. So we must must
relax the state machine check at recv_stream(), and allow the
recv() call even if socket is in state SS_CONNECTING.

As per feedback from the netdev community, we change the buffer
overflow protection algorithm in receiving sockets so that it
always respects the nominal upper limit set in sk_rcvbuf.
Instead of scaling up from a small sk_rcvbuf value, which leads to
violation of the configured sk_rcvbuf limit, we now calculate the
weighted per-message limit by scaling down from a much bigger value,
still in the same field, according to the importance priority of the
received message.
To allow for administrative tunability of the socket receive buffer
size, we create a tipc_rmem sysctl variable to allow the user to
configure an even bigger value via sysctl command. It is a size of
three (min/default/max) to be consistent with things like tcp_rmem.
By default, the value initialized in tipc_rmem[1] is equal to the
receive socket size needed by a TIPC_CRITICAL_IMPORTANCE message.
This value is also set as the default value of sk_rcvbuf.

When sending packets, TIPC bearers use skb_clone() before writing their
hardware header. This will however NOT copy the data buffer.
So when the same packet is sent over multiple bearers (to reach multiple
nodes), the same socket buffer data will be treated by multiple
tipc_media drivers which will write their own hardware header through
dev_hard_header().
Most of the time this is not a problem, because by the time the
packet is processed by the second media, it has already been sent over
the first one. However, when the first transmission is delayed (e.g.
because of insufficient bandwidth or through a shaper), the next bearer
will overwrite the hardware header, resulting in the packet being sent:
a) with the wrong source address, when bearers of the same type,
e.g. ethernet, are involved
b) with a completely corrupt header, or even dropped, when bearers of
different types are involved.
So when the same socket buffer is to be sent multiple times, send a
pskb_copy() instead (from the second instance on), and release it
afterwards (the bearer will skb_clone() it anyway).

Add InfiniBand media type based on the ethernet media type.
The only real difference is that in case of InfiniBand, we need the entire
20 bytes of space reserved for media addresses, so the TIPC media type ID is
not explicitly stored in the packet payload.
