| * tipc: permit bond slave as bearerParthasarathy Bhuvaragan2017-08-291-15/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For a bond slave device as a tipc bearer, the dev represents the bond interface and orig_dev represents the slave in tipc_l2_rcv_msg(). Since we decode the tipc_ptr from bonding device (dev), we fail to find the bearer and thus tipc links are not established. In this commit, we register the tipc protocol callback per device and look for tipc bearer from both the devices.

* | tipc: don't reset stale broadcast send linkJon Paul Maloy2017-08-211-24/+0
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the broadcast send link after 100 attempts has failed to transfer a packet to all peers, we consider it stale, and reset it. Thereafter it needs to re-synchronize with the peers, something currently done by just resetting and re-establishing all links to all peers. This has turned out to be overkill, with potentially unwanted consequences for the remaining cluster. A closer analysis reveals that this can be done much simpler. When this kind of failure happens, for reasons that may lie outside the TIPC protocol, it is typically only one peer which is failing to receive and acknowledge packets. It is hence sufficient to identify and reset the links only to that peer to resolve the situation, without having to reset the broadcast link at all. This solution entails a much lower risk of negative consequences for the own node as well as for the overall cluster. We implement this change in this commit.

* tipc: accept PACKET_MULTICAST packetsJon Paul Maloy2017-08-141-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On L2 bearers, the TIPC broadcast function is sending out packets using the corresponding L2 broadcast address. At reception, we filter such packets under the assumption that they will also be delivered as broadcast packets. This assumption doesn't always hold true. Under high load, we have seen that a switch may convert the destination address and deliver the packet as a PACKET_MULTICAST, something leading to inadvertently dropped packets and a stale and reset broadcast link. We fix this by extending the reception filtering to accept packets of type PACKET_MULTICAST. Signed-off-by: Jon Maloy <jon.maloy@ericsson.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* tipc: check minimum bearer MTUMichal Kubeček2016-12-021-2/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Qian Zhang (张谦) reported a potential socket buffer overflow in tipc_msg_build() which is also known as CVE-2016-8632: due to insufficient checks, a buffer overflow can occur if MTU is too short for even tipc headers. As anyone can set device MTU in a user/net namespace, this issue can be abused by a regular user. As agreed in the discussion on Ben Hutchings' original patch, we should check the MTU at the moment a bearer is attached rather than for each processed packet. We also need to repeat the check when bearer MTU is adjusted to new device MTU. UDP case also needs a check to avoid overflow when calculating bearer MTU.

* tipc: make bearer packet filtering genericJon Paul Maloy2016-08-181-38/+40
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In commit 5b7066c3dd24 ("tipc: stricter filtering of packets in bearer layer") we introduced a method of filtering out messages while a bearer is being reset, to avoid that links may be re-created and come back in working state while we are still in the process of shutting them down. This solution works well, but is limited to only work with L2 media, which is insufficient with the increasing use of UDP as carrier media. We now replace this solution with a more generic one, by introducing a new flag "up" in the generic struct tipc_bearer. This field will be set and reset at the same locations as with the previous solution, while the packet filtering is moved to the generic code for the sending side. On the receiving side, the filtering is still done in media specific code, but now including the UDP bearer.

* | tipc: add neighbor monitoring frameworkJon Paul Maloy2016-06-151-1/+7

Those links are expected to provide a short failure detection time, by default set to 1500 ms. Because of this, the background load for neighbor monitoring in an N-node cluster increases with a factor N on each node, while the overall monitoring traffic through the network infrastructure increases at a ~(N * (N - 1)) rate. Experience has shown that such clusters don't scale well beyond ~100 nodes unless we significantly increase failure discovery tolerance. This commit introduces a framework and an algorithm that drastically reduces this background load, while basically maintaining the original failure detection times across the whole cluster. Using this algorithm, background load will now grow at a rate of ~(2 * sqrt(N)) per node, and at ~(2 * N * sqrt(N)) in traffic overhead. As an example, each node will now have to actively monitor 38 neighbors in a 400-node cluster, instead of as before 399. This "Overlapping Ring Supervision Algorithm" is completely distributed and employs no centralized or coordinated state. It goes as follows: - Each node makes up a linearly ascending, circular list of all its N known neighbors, based on their TIPC node identity. This algorithm must be the same on all nodes. - The node then selects the next M = sqrt(N) - 1 nodes downstream from itself in the list, and chooses to actively monitor those. This is called its "local monitoring domain". - It creates a domain record describing the monitoring domain, and piggy-backs this in the data area of all neighbor monitoring messages (LINK_PROTOCOL/STATE) leaving that node. This means that all nodes in the cluster eventually (default within 400 ms) will learn about its monitoring domain. - Whenever a node discovers a change in its local domain, e.g., a node has been added or has gone down, it creates and sends out a new version of its node record to inform all neighbors about the change. - A node receiving a domain record from anybody outside its local domain matches this against its own list (which may not look the same), and chooses to not actively monitor those members of the received domain record that are also present in its own list. Instead, it relies on indications from the direct monitoring nodes if an indirectly monitored node has gone up or down. If a node is indicated lost, the receiving node temporarily activates its own direct monitoring towards that node in order to confirm, or not, that it is actually gone. - Since each node is actively monitoring sqrt(N) downstream neighbors, each node is also actively monitored by the same number of upstream neighbors. This means that all non-direct monitoring nodes normally will receive sqrt(N) indications that a node is gone. - A major drawback with ring monitoring is how it handles failures that cause massive network partitionings. If both a lost node and all its direct monitoring neighbors are inside the lost partition, the nodes in the remaining partition will never receive indications about the loss. To overcome this, each node also chooses to actively monitor some nodes outside its local domain. Those nodes are called remote domain "heads", and are selected in such a way that no node in the cluster will be more than two direct monitoring hops away. Because of this, each node, apart from monitoring the member of its local domain, will also typically monitor sqrt(N) remote head nodes. - As an optimization, local list status, domain status and domain records are marked with a generation number. This saves senders from unnecessarily conveying unaltered domain records, and receivers from performing unneeded re-adaptations of their node monitoring list, such as re-assigning domain heads. - As a measure of caution we have added the possibility to disable the new algorithm through configuration. We do this by keeping a threshold value for the cluster size; a cluster that grows beyond this value will switch from full-mesh to ring monitoring, and vice versa when it shrinks below the value. This means that if the threshold is set to a value larger than any anticipated cluster size (default size is 32) the new algorithm is effectively disabled. A patch set for altering the threshold value and for listing the table contents will follow shortly. - This change is fully backwards compatible.

* tipc: stricter filtering of packets in bearer layerJon Paul Maloy2016-04-071-17/+33
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Resetting a bearer/interface, with the consequence of resetting all its pertaining links, is not an atomic action. This becomes particularly evident in very large clusters, where a lot of traffic may happen on the remaining links while we are busy shutting them down. In extreme cases, we may even see links being re-created and re-established before we are finished with the job. To solve this, we now introduce a solution where we temporarily detach the bearer from the interface when the bearer is reset. This inhibits all packet reception, while sending still is possible. For the latter, we use the fact that the device's user pointer now is zero to filter out which packets can be sent during this situation; i.e., outgoing RESET messages only. This filtering serves to speed up the neighbors' detection of the loss event, and saves us from unnecessary probing.

* tipc: eliminate buffer leak in bearer layerJon Paul Maloy2016-04-071-25/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When enabling a bearer we create a 'neigbor discoverer' instance by calling the function tipc_disc_create() before the bearer is actually registered in the list of enabled bearers. Because of this, the very first discovery broadcast message, created by the mentioned function, is lost, since it cannot find any valid bearer to use. Furthermore, the used send function, tipc_bearer_xmit_skb() does not free the given buffer when it cannot find a bearer, resulting in the leak of exactly one send buffer each time a bearer is enabled. This commit fixes this problem by introducing two changes: 1) Instead of attemting to send the discovery message directly, we let tipc_disc_create() return the discovery buffer to the calling function, tipc_enable_bearer(), so that the latter can send it when the enabling sequence is finished. 2) In tipc_bearer_xmit_skb(), as well as in the two other transmit functions at the bearer layer, we now free the indicated buffer or buffer chain when a valid bearer cannot be found.

* tipc: simplify bearer level broadcastJon Paul Maloy2015-10-241-6/+29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Until now, we have been keeping track of the exact set of broadcast destinations though the help structure tipc_node_map. This leads us to have to maintain a whole infrastructure for supporting this, including a pseudo-bearer and a number of functions to manipulate both the bearers and the node map correctly. Apart from the complexity, this approach is also limiting, as struct tipc_node_map only can support cluster local broadcast if we want to avoid it becoming excessively large. We want to eliminate this limitation, in order to enable introduction of scoped multicast in the future. A closer analysis reveals that it is unnecessary maintaining this "full set" overview; it is sufficient to keep a counter per bearer, indicating how many nodes can be reached via this bearer at the moment. The protocol is now robust enough to handle transitional discrepancies between the nominal number of reachable destinations, as expected by the broadcast protocol itself, and the number which is actually reachable at the moment. The initial broadcast synchronization, in conjunction with the retransmission mechanism, ensures that all packets will eventually be acknowledged by the correct set of destinations.

* tipc: send out RESET immediately when link goes downJon Paul Maloy2015-10-151-5/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a link is taken down because of a node local event, such as disabling of a bearer or an interface, we currently leave it to the peer node to discover the broken communication. The default time for such failure discovery is 1.5-2 seconds. If we instead allow the terminating link endpoint to send out a RESET message at the moment it is reset, we can achieve the impression that both endpoints are going down instantly. Since this is a very common scenario, we find it worthwhile to make this small modification. Apart from letting the link produce the said message, we also have to ensure that the interface is able to transmit it before TIPC is detached. We do this by performing the disabling of a bearer in three steps: 1) Disable reception of TIPC packets from the interface in question. 2) Take down the links, while allowing them so send out a RESET message. 3) Disable transmission of TIPC packets on the interface. Apart from this, we now have to react on the NETDEV_GOING_DOWN event, instead of as currently the NEDEV_DOWN event, to ensure that such transmission is possible during the teardown phase.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, message sending is performed through a deep call chain, where the node spinlock is grabbed and held during a significant part of the transmission time. This is clearly detrimental to overall throughput performance; it would be better if we could send the message after the spinlock has been released. In this commit, we do instead let the call revert on the stack after the buffer chain has been added to the transmission queue, whereafter clones of the buffers are transmitted to the device layer outside the spinlock scope. As a further step in our effort to separate the roles of the node and link entities we also move the function tipc_link_xmit() to node.c, and rename it to tipc_node_xmit().

When we disable a bearer, we delete all its pertaining links if there is no other bearer to perform failover to, or if the module is shutting down. In case there are dual bearers, we wait with deleting links until the failover procedure is finished. However, this misses the case when a link on the removed bearer was already down, so that there will be no failover procedure to finish the link delete. This causes confusion if a new bearer is added to replace the removed one, and also entails a small memory leak. This commit takes the current state of the link into account when deciding when to delete it, and also reverses the above-mentioned commit.
