2020-08-20rxrpc: Make rxrpc_kernel_get_srtt() indicate validityDavid Howells
Fix rxrpc_kernel_get_srtt() to indicate the validity of the returned smoothed RTT. If we haven't had any valid samples yet, the SRTT isn't useful. Fixes: c410bf01933e ("rxrpc: Fix the excessive initial retransmission timeout") Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
2020-06-20afs: Fix hang on rmmod due to outstanding timerDavid Howells
The fileserver probe timer, net->fs_probe_timer, isn't cancelled when the kafs module is being removed and so the count it holds on net->servers_outstanding doesn't get dropped.. This causes rmmod to wait forever. The hung process shows a stack like: afs_purge_servers+0x1b5/0x23c [kafs] afs_net_exit+0x44/0x6e [kafs] ops_exit_list+0x72/0x93 unregister_pernet_operations+0x14c/0x1ba unregister_pernet_subsys+0x1d/0x2a afs_exit+0x29/0x6f [kafs] __do_sys_delete_module.isra.0+0x1a2/0x24b do_syscall_64+0x51/0x95 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xa9 Fix this by: (1) Attempting to cancel the probe timer and, if successful, drop the count that the timer was holding. (2) Make the timer function just drop the count and not schedule the prober if the afs portion of net namespace is being destroyed. Also, whilst we're at it, make the following changes: (3) Initialise net->servers_outstanding to 1 and decrement it before waiting on it so that it doesn't generate wake up events by being decremented to 0 until we're cleaning up. (4) Switch the atomic_dec() on ->servers_outstanding for ->fs_timer in afs_purge_servers() to use the helper function for that.

2020-06-04afs: Adjust the fileserver rotation algorithm to reprobe/retry more quicklyDavid Howells
Adjust the fileserver rotation algorithm so that if we've tried all the addresses on a server (cumulatively over multiple operations) until we've run out of untried addresses, immediately reprobe all that server's interfaces and retry the op at least once before we move onto the next server.

2020-06-04afs: Don't use probe running state to make decisions outside probe codeDavid Howells
Don't use the running state for fileserver probes to make decisions about which server to use as the state is cleared at the start of a probe and also intermediate values might be misleading. Instead, add a separate 'latest known' rtt in the afs_server struct and a flag to indicate if the server is known to be responding and update these as and when we know what to change them to.

2020-05-31afs: Actively poll fileservers to maintain NAT or firewall openingsDavid Howells
When an AFS client accesses a file, it receives a limited-duration callback promise that the server will notify it if another client changes a file. This callback duration can be a few hours in length. If a client mounts a volume and then an application prevents it from being unmounted, say by chdir'ing into it, but then does nothing for some time, the rxrpc_peer record will expire and rxrpc-level keepalive will cease. If there is NAT or a firewall between the client and the server, the route back for the server may close after a comparatively short duration, meaning that attempts by the server to notify the client may then bounce. The client, however, may (so far as it knows) still have a valid unexpired promise and will then rely on its cached data and will not see changes made on the server by a third party until it incidentally rechecks the status or the promise needs renewal. To deal with this, the client needs to regularly probe the server. This has two effects: firstly, it keeps a route open back for the server, and secondly, it causes the server to disgorge any notifications that got queued up because they couldn't be sent. Fix this by adding a mechanism to emit regular probes. Two levels of probing are made available: Under normal circumstances the 'slow' queue will be used for a fileserver - this just probes the preferred address once every 5 mins or so; however, if server fails to respond to any probes, the server will shift to the 'fast' queue from which all its interfaces will be probed every 30s. When it finally responds, the record will switch back to the slow queue. Further notes: (1) Probing is now no longer driven from the fileserver rotation algorithm. (2) Probes are dispatched to all interfaces on a fileserver when that an afs_server object is set up to record it. (3) The afs_server object is removed from the probe queues when we start to probe it. afs_is_probing_server() returns true if it's not listed - ie. it's undergoing probing. (4) The afs_server object is added back on to the probe queue when the final outstanding probe completes, but the probed_at time is set when we're about to launch a probe so that it's not dependent on the probe duration. (5) The timer and the work item added for this must be handed a count on net->servers_outstanding, which they hand on or release. This makes sure that network namespace cleanup waits for them.

2020-05-31afs: Split the usage count on struct afs_serverDavid Howells
Split the usage count on the afs_server struct to have an active count that registers who's actually using it separately from the reference count on the object. This allows a future patch to dispatch polling probes without advancing the "unuse" time into the future each time we emit a probe, which would otherwise prevent unused server records from expiring. Included in this: (1) The latter part of afs_destroy_server() in which the RCU destruction of afs_server objects is invoked and the outstanding server count is decremented is split out into __afs_put_server(). (2) afs_put_server() now calls __afs_put_server() rather then setting the management timer. (3) The calls begun by afs_fs_give_up_all_callbacks() and afs_fs_get_capabilities() can now take a ref on the server record, so afs_destroy_server() can just drop its ref and needn't wait for the completion of these calls. They'll put the ref when they're done. (4) Because of (3), afs_fs_probe_done() no longer needs to wake up afs_destroy_server() with server->probe_outstanding. (5) afs_gc_servers can be simplified. It only needs to check if server->active is 0 rather than playing games with the refcount. (6) afs_manage_servers() can propose a server for gc if usage == 0 rather than if ref == 1. The gc is effected by (5). Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

2020-05-11rxrpc: Fix the excessive initial retransmission timeoutDavid Howells
rxrpc currently uses a fixed 4s retransmission timeout until the RTT is sufficiently sampled. This can cause problems with some fileservers with calls to the cache manager in the afs filesystem being dropped from the fileserver because a packet goes missing and the retransmission timeout is greater than the call expiry timeout. Fix this by: (1) Copying the RTT/RTO calculation code from Linux's TCP implementation and altering it to fit rxrpc. (2) Altering the various users of the RTT to make use of the new SRTT value. (3) Replacing the use of rxrpc_resend_timeout to use the calculated RTO value instead (which is needed in jiffies), along with a backoff. Notes: (1) rxrpc provides RTT samples by matching the serial numbers on outgoing DATA packets that have the RXRPC_REQUEST_ACK set and PING ACK packets against the reference serial number in incoming REQUESTED ACK and PING-RESPONSE ACK packets. (2) Each packet that is transmitted on an rxrpc connection gets a new per-connection serial number, even for retransmissions, so an ACK can be cross-referenced to a specific trigger packet. This allows RTT information to be drawn from retransmitted DATA packets also. (3) rxrpc maintains the RTT/RTO state on the rxrpc_peer record rather than on an rxrpc_call because many RPC calls won't live long enough to generate more than one sample. (4) The calculated SRTT value is in units of 8ths of a microsecond rather than nanoseconds. The (S)RTT and RTO values are displayed in /proc/net/rxrpc/peers.

2020-04-24afs: Remove some unused bitsDavid Howells
Remove three bits: (1) afs_server::no_epoch is neither set nor used. (2) afs_server::have_result is set and a wakeup is applied to it, but nothing looks at it or waits on it. (3) afs_vl_dump_edestaddrreq() prints afs_addr_list::probed, but nothing sets it for VL servers. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
2020-03-26afs: Fix unpinned address list during probingDavid Howells
When it's probing all of a fileserver's interfaces to find which one is best to use, afs_do_probe_fileserver() takes a lock on the server record and notes the pointer to the address list. It doesn't, however, pin the address list, so as soon as it drops the lock, there's nothing to stop the address list from being freed under us. Fix this by taking a ref on the address list inside the locked section and dropping it at the end of the function.

2018-11-29afs: Fix missing net error handlingDavid Howells
kAFS can be given certain network errors (EADDRNOTAVAIL, EHOSTDOWN and ERFKILL) that it doesn't handle in its server/address rotation algorithms. They cause the probing and rotation to abort immediately rather than rotating. Fix this by: (1) Abstracting out the error prioritisation from the VL and FS rotation algorithms into a common function and expand usage into the server probing code. When multiple errors are available, this code selects the one we'd prefer to return. (2) Add handling for EADDRNOTAVAIL, EHOSTDOWN and ERFKILL.

2018-10-24afs: Probe multiple fileservers simultaneouslyDavid Howells
Send probes to all the unprobed fileservers in a fileserver list on all addresses simultaneously in an attempt to find out the fastest route whilst not getting stuck for 20s on any server or address that we don't get a reply from. This alleviates the problem whereby attempting to access a new server can take a long time because the rotation algorithm ends up rotating through all servers and addresses until it finds one that responds.
