Move to using RCU access to a peer's service connection tree when routing
an incoming packet. This is done using a seqlock to trigger retrying of
the tree walk if a change happened.
Further, we no longer get a ref on the connection looked up in the
data_ready handler unless we queue the connection's work item - and then
only if the refcount > 0.
Note that I'm avoiding the use of a hash table for service connections
because each service connection is addressed by a 62-bit number
(constructed from epoch and connection ID >> 2) that would allow the client
to engage in bucket stuffing, given knowledge of the hash algorithm.
Peers, however, are hashed as the network address is less controllable by
the client. The total number of peers will also be limited in a future
commit.

Overhaul the usage count accounting for the rxrpc_connection struct to make
it easier to implement RCU access from the data_ready handler.
The problem is that currently we're using a lock to prevent the garbage
collector from trying to clean up a connection that we're contemplating
unidling. We could just stick incoming packets on the connection we find,
but we've then got a problem that we may race when dispatching a work item
to process it as we need to give that a ref to prevent the rxrpc_connection
struct from disappearing in the meantime.
Further, incoming packets may get discarded if attached to an
rxrpc_connection struct that is going away. Whilst this is not a total
disaster - the client will presumably resend - it would delay processing of
the call. This would affect the AFS client filesystem's service manager
operation.
To this end:
(1) We now maintain an extra count on the connection usage count whilst it
is on the connection list. This mean it is not in use when its
refcount is 1.
(2) When trying to reuse an old connection, we only increment the refcount
if it is greater than 0. If it is 0, we replace it in the tree with a
new candidate connection.
(3) Two connection flags are added to indicate whether or not a connection
is in the local's client connection tree (used by sendmsg) or the
peer's service connection tree (used by data_ready). This makes sure
that we don't try and remove a connection if it got replaced.
The flags are tested under lock with the removal operation to prevent
the reaper from killing the rxrpc_connection struct whilst someone
else is trying to effect a replacement.
This could probably be alleviated by using memory barriers between the
flag set/test and the rb_tree ops. The rb_tree op would still need to
be under the lock, however.
(4) When trying to reap an old connection, we try to flip the usage count
from 1 to 0. If it's not 1 at that point, then it must've come back
to life temporarily and we ignore it.

Each channel on a connection has a separate, independent number space from
which to allocate callNumber values. It is entirely possible, for example,
to have a connection with four active calls, each with call number 1.
Note that the callNumber values for any particular channel don't have to
start at 1, but they are supposed to increment monotonically for that
channel from a client's perspective and may not be reused once the call
number is transmitted (until the epoch cycles all the way back round).
Currently, however, call numbers are allocated on a per-connection basis
and, further, are held in an rb-tree. The rb-tree is redundant as the four
channel pointers in the rxrpc_connection struct are entirely capable of
pointing to all the calls currently in progress on a connection.
To this end, make the following changes:
(1) Handle call number allocation independently per channel.
(2) Get rid of the conn->calls rb-tree. This is overkill as a connection
may have a maximum of four calls in progress at any one time. Use the
pointers in the channels[] array instead, indexed by the channel
number from the packet.
(3) For each channel, save the result of the last call that was in
progress on that channel in conn->channels[] so that the final ACK or
ABORT packet can be replayed if necessary. Any call earlier than that
is just ignored. If we've seen the next call number in a packet, the
last one is most definitely defunct.
(4) When generating a RESPONSE packet for a connection, the call number
counter for each channel must be included in it.
(5) When parsing a RESPONSE packet for a connection, the call number
counters contained therein should be used to set the minimum expected
call numbers on each channel.
To do in future commits:
(1) Replay terminal packets based on the last call stored in
conn->channels[].
(2) Connections should be retired before the callNumber space on any
channel runs out.
(3) A server is expected to disregard or reject any new incoming call that
has a call number less than the current call number counter. The call
number counter for that channel must be advanced to the new call
number.
Note that the server cannot just require that the next call that it
sees on a channel be exactly the call number counter + 1 because then
there's a scenario that could cause a problem: The client transmits a
packet to initiate a connection, the network goes out, the server
sends an ACK (which gets lost), the client sends an ABORT (which also
gets lost); the network then reconnects, the client then reuses the
call number for the next call (it doesn't know the server already saw
the call number), but the server thinks it already has the first
packet of this call (it doesn't know that the client doesn't know that
it saw the call number the first time).

When a call is disconnected, clear the call's pointer to the connection and
release the associated ref on that connection. This means that the call no
longer pins the connection and the connection can be discarded even before
the call is.
As the code currently stands, the call struct is effectively pinned by
userspace until userspace has enacted a recvmsg() to retrieve the final
call state as sk_buffs on the receive queue pin the call to which they're
related because:
(1) The rxrpc_call struct contains the userspace ID that recvmsg() has to
include in the control message buffer to indicate which call is being
referred to. This ID must remain valid until the terminal packet is
completely read and must be invalidated immediately at that point as
userspace is entitled to immediately reuse it.
(2) The final ACK to the reply to a client call isn't sent until the last
data packet is entirely read (it's probably worth altering this in
future to be send the ACK as soon as all the data has been received).
This change requires a bit of rearrangement to make sure that the call
isn't going to try and access the connection again after protocol
completion:
(1) Delete the error link earlier when we're releasing the call. Possibly
network errors should be distributed via connections at the cost of
adding in an access to the rxrpc_connection struct.
(2) Remove the call from the connection's call tree before disconnecting
the call. The call tree needs to be removed anyway and incoming
packets delivered by channel pointer instead.
(3) The release call event should be considered last after all other
events have been processed so that we don't need access to the
connection again.
(4) Move the channel_lock taking from rxrpc_release_call() to
rxrpc_disconnect_call() where it will be required in future.

If rxrpc_connect_call() fails during the creation of a client connection,
there are two bugs that we can hit that need fixing:
(1) The call state should be moved to RXRPC_CALL_DEAD before the call
cleanup phase is invoked. If not, this can cause an assertion failure
later.
(2) call->link should be reinitialised after being deleted in
rxrpc_new_client_call() - which otherwise leads to a failure later
when the call cleanup attempts to delete the link again.

Rather than calling rxrpc_get_connection() manually before calling
rxrpc_queue_conn(), do it inside the queue wrapper.
This allows us to do some important fixes:
(1) If the usage count is 0, do nothing. This prevents connections from
being reanimated once they're dead.
(2) If rxrpc_queue_work() fails because the work item is already queued,
retract the usage count increment which would otherwise be lost.
(3) Don't take a ref on the connection in the work function. By passing
the ref through the work item, this is unnecessary. Doing it in the
work function is too late anyway. Previously, connection-directed
packets held a ref on the connection, but that's not really the best
idea.

rxkad uses stack memory in SG lists which would not work if stacks were

This patch eliminates all the unnecessary stack memory uses by supplying
the final destination directly to the crypto API. In two instances where a
temporary buffer is actually needed we also switch use a scratch area in

Use the IDR facility to allocate client connection IDs on a machine-wide
basis so that each client connection has a unique identifier. When the
connection ID space wraps, we advance the epoch by 1, thereby effectively
having a 62-bit ID space. The IDR facility is then used to look up client
connections during incoming packet routing instead of using an rbtree
rooted on the transport.
This change allows for the removal of the transport in the future and also
means that client connections can be looked up directly in the data-ready
handler by connection ID.
The ID management code is placed in a new file, conn-client.c, to which all
the client connection-specific code will eventually move.
Note that the IDR tree gets very expensive on memory if the connection IDs
are widely scattered throughout the number space, so we shall need to
retire connections that have, say, an ID more than four times the maximum
number of client conns away from the current allocation point to try and
keep the IDs concentrated. We will also need to retire connections from an
old epoch.
Also note that, for the moment, a pointer to the transport has to be passed
through into the ID allocation function so that we can take a BH lock to
prevent a locking issue against in-BH lookup of client connections. This
will go away later when RCU is used for server connections also.

"Exclusive connections" are meant to be used for a single client call and
then scrapped. The idea is to limit the use of the negotiated security
context. The current code, however, isn't doing this: it is instead
restricting the socket to a single virtual connection and doing all the
calls over that.
This is changed such that the socket no longer maintains a special virtual
connection over which it will do all the calls, but rather gets a new one
each time a new exclusive call is made.
Further, using a socket option for this is a poor choice. It should be
done on sendmsg with a control message marker instead so that calls can be
marked exclusive individually. To that end, add RXRPC_EXCLUSIVE_CALL
which, if passed to sendmsg() as a control message element, will cause the
call to be done on an single-use connection.
The socket option (RXRPC_EXCLUSIVE_CONNECTION) still exists and, if set,
will override any lack of RXRPC_EXCLUSIVE_CALL being specified so that
programs using the setsockopt() will appear to work the same.

Rework the local RxRPC endpoint management.
Local endpoint objects are maintained in a flat list as before. This
should be okay as there shouldn't be more than one per open AF_RXRPC socket
(there can be fewer as local endpoints can be shared if their local service
ID is 0 and they share the same local transport parameters).
Changes:
(1) Local endpoints may now only be shared if they have local service ID 0
(ie. they're not being used for listening).
This prevents a scenario where process A is listening of the Cache
Manager port and process B contacts a fileserver - which may then
attempt to send CM requests back to B. But if A and B are sharing a
local endpoint, A will get the CM requests meant for B.
(2) We use a mutex to handle lookups and don't provide RCU-only lookups
since we only expect to access the list when opening a socket or
destroying an endpoint.
The local endpoint object is pointed to by the transport socket's
sk_user_data for the life of the transport socket - allowing us to
refer to it directly from the sk_data_ready and sk_error_report
callbacks.
(3) atomic_inc_not_zero() now exists and can be used to only share a local
endpoint if the last reference hasn't yet gone.
(4) We can remove rxrpc_local_lock - a spinlock that had to be taken with
BH processing disabled given that we assume sk_user_data won't change
under us.
(5) The transport socket is shut down before we clear the sk_user_data
pointer so that we can be sure that the transport socket's callbacks
won't be invoked once the RCU destruction is scheduled.
(6) Local endpoints have a work item that handles both destruction and
event processing. The means that destruction doesn't then need to
wait for event processing. The event queues can then be cleared after
the transport socket is shut down.
(7) Local endpoints are no longer available for resurrection beyond the
life of the sockets that had them open. As soon as their last ref
goes, they are scheduled for destruction and may not have their usage
count moved from 0.

This may be overkill, though, since an ICMP packet would be expected
to be relating to the destination port, machine or network. RxRPC

Rework peer object handling to use a hash table instead of a flat list and
to use RCU. Peer objects are no longer destroyed by passing them to a
workqueue to process, but rather are just passed to the RCU garbage
collector as kfree'able objects.
The hash function uses the local endpoint plus all the components of the
remote address, except for the RxRPC service ID. Peers thus represent a
UDP port on the remote machine as contacted by a UDP port on this machine.
The RCU read lock is used to handle non-creating lookups so that they can
be called from bottom half context in the sk_error_report handler without
having to lock the hash table against modification.
rxrpc_lookup_peer_rcu() *does* take a reference on the peer object as in
the future, this will be passed to a work item for error distribution in
the error_report path and this function will cease being used in the
data_ready path.
Creating lookups are done under spinlock rather than mutex as they might be
set up due to an external stimulus if the local endpoint is a server.
Captured network error messages (ICMP) are handled with respect to this
struct and MTU size and RTT are cached here.

(*) ar-call.c -> call_object.c
ar-ack.c -> call_event.c

(*) ar-accept.c -> call_accept.c
Incoming call handling is going to be here.
(*) ar-connection.c -> conn_object.c
ar-connevent.c -> conn_event.c
The former file is going to have the basic connection object handling,
but there will likely be some differentiation between client
connections and service connections in additional files later. The
latter file will have all the connection-level event handling.
(*) ar-local.c -> local_object.c
This will have the local endpoint object handling code. The local
endpoint event handling code will later be split out into
local_event.c.
(*) ar-peer.c -> peer_object.c
This will have the peer endpoint object handling code. Peer event
handling code will be placed in peer_event.c (for the moment, there is
none).
(*) ar-error.c -> peer_event.c
This will become the peer event handling code, though for the moment
it's actually driven from the local endpoint's perspective.
Note that I haven't renamed ar-transport.c to transport_object.c as the

Limit the socket incoming call backlog queue size so that a remote client
can't pump in sufficient new calls that the server runs out of memory. Note
that this is partially theoretical at the moment since whilst the number of
calls is limited, the number of packets trying to set up new calls is not.
This will be addressed in a later patch.
If the caller of listen() specifies a backlog INT_MAX, then they get the
current maximum; anything else greater than max_backlog or anything
negative incurs EINVAL.
The limit on the maximum queue size can be set by:
echo N >/proc/sys/net/rxrpc/max_backlog
where 4<=N<=32.
Further, set the default backlog to 0, requiring listen() to be called
before we start actually queueing new calls. Whilst this kind of is a
change in the UAPI, the caller can't actually *accept* new calls anyway
unless they've first called listen() to put the socket into the LISTENING
state - thus the aforementioned new calls would otherwise just sit there,
eating up kernel memory. (Note that sockets that don't have a non-zero
service ID bound don't get incoming calls anyway.)
Given that the default backlog is now 0, make the AFS filesystem call
kernel_listen() to set the maximum backlog for itself.
Possible improvements include:
(1) Trimming a too-large backlog to max_backlog when listen is called.
(2) Trimming the backlog value whenever the value is used so that changes
to max_backlog are applied to an open socket automatically. Note that
the AFS filesystem opens one socket and keeps it open for extended
periods, so would miss out on changes to max_backlog.
(3) Having a separate setting for the AFS filesystem.
