tipc: add stricter control of reserved service types

TIPC reserves 64 service types for current and future internal use.
Therefore, the bind() function is meant to block regular user sockets
from being bound to these values, while it should let through such
bindings from internal users.

However, since we at the design moment saw no way to distinguish
between regular and internal users the filter function ended up
with allowing all bindings of the reserved types which were really
in use ([0,1]), and block all the rest ([2,63]).

This is risky, since a regular user may bind to the service type
representing the topology server (TIPC_TOP_SRV == 1) or the one used
for indicating neighboring node status (TIPC_CFG_SRV == 0), and wreak
havoc for users of those services, i.e., most users.

The reality is however that TIPC_CFG_SRV never is bound through the
bind() function, since it doesn't represent a regular socket, and
TIPC_TOP_SRV can also be made to bypass the checks in tipc_bind()
by introducing a different entry function, tipc_sk_bind().

It should be noted that although this is a change of the API semantics,
there is no risk we will break any currently working applications by
doing this. Any application trying to bind to the values in question
would be badly broken from the outset, so there is no chance we would
find any such applications in real-world production systems.

v2: Added warning printout when a user is blocked from binding,
as suggested by Jakub Kicinski

tipc: add trace_events for tipc socket

The commit adds the new trace_events for TIPC socket object:

trace_tipc_sk_create()
trace_tipc_sk_poll()
trace_tipc_sk_sendmsg()
trace_tipc_sk_sendmcast()
trace_tipc_sk_sendstream()
trace_tipc_sk_filter_rcv()
trace_tipc_sk_advance_rx()
trace_tipc_sk_rej_msg()
trace_tipc_sk_drop_msg()
trace_tipc_sk_release()
trace_tipc_sk_shutdown()
trace_tipc_sk_overlimit1()
trace_tipc_sk_overlimit2()

Also, enables the traces for the following cases:
- When user creates a TIPC socket;
- When user calls poll() on TIPC socket;
- When user sends a dgram/mcast/stream message.
- When a message is put into the socket 'sk_receive_queue';
- When a message is released from the socket 'sk_receive_queue';
- When a message is rejected (e.g. due to no port, invalid, etc.);
- When a message is dropped (e.g. due to wrong message type);
- When socket is released;
- When socket is shutdown;
- When socket rcvq's allocation is overlimit (> 90%);
- When socket rcvq + bklq's allocation is overlimit (> 90%);
- When the 'TIPC_ERR_OVERLOAD/2' issue happens;

Note:
a) All the socket traces are designed to be able to trace on a specific
socket by either using the 'event filtering' feature on a known socket
'portid' value or the sysctl file:

/proc/sys/net/tipc/sk_filter

The file determines a 'tuple' for what socket should be traced:

(portid, sock type, name type, name lower, name upper)

where:
+ 'portid' is the socket portid generated at socket creating, can be
found in the trace outputs or the 'tipc socket list' command printouts;
+ 'sock type' is the socket type (1 = SOCK_TREAM, ...);
+ 'name type', 'name lower' and 'name upper' are the service name being
connected to or published by the socket.

Value '0' means 'ANY', the default tuple value is (0, 0, 0, 0, 0) i.e.
the traces happen for every sockets with no filter.

b) The 'tipc_sk_overlimit1/2' event is also a conditional trace_event
which happens when the socket receive queue (and backlog queue) is
about to be overloaded, when the queue allocation is > 90%. Then, when
the trace is enabled, the last skbs leading to the TIPC_ERR_OVERLOAD/2
issue can be traced.

The trace event is designed as an 'upper watermark' notification that
the other traces (e.g. 'tipc_sk_advance_rx' vs 'tipc_sk_filter_rcv') or
actions can be triggerred in the meanwhile to see what is going on with
the socket queue.

In addition, the 'trace_tipc_sk_dump()' is also placed at the
'TIPC_ERR_OVERLOAD/2' case, so the socket and last skb can be dumped
for post-analysis.

tipc: enable tracepoints in tipc

As for the sake of debugging/tracing, the commit enables tracepoints in
TIPC along with some general trace_events as shown below. It also
defines some 'tipc_*_dump()' functions that allow to dump TIPC object
data whenever needed, that is, for general debug purposes, ie. not just
for the trace_events.

The following trace_events are now available:

- trace_tipc_skb_dump(): allows to trace and dump TIPC msg & skb data,
e.g. message type, user, droppable, skb truesize, cloned skb, etc.

- trace_tipc_list_dump(): allows to trace and dump any TIPC buffers or
queues, e.g. TIPC link transmq, socket receive queue, etc.

- trace_tipc_sk_dump(): allows to trace and dump TIPC socket data, e.g.
sk state, sk type, connection type, rmem_alloc, socket queues, etc.

- trace_tipc_link_dump(): allows to trace and dump TIPC link data, e.g.
link state, silent_intv_cnt, gap, bc_gap, link queues, etc.

- trace_tipc_node_dump(): allows to trace and dump TIPC node data, e.g.
node state, active links, capabilities, link entries, etc.

How to use:
Put the trace functions at any places where we want to dump TIPC data
or events.

Note:
a) The dump functions will generate raw data only, that is, to offload
the trace event's processing, it can require a tool or script to parse
the data but this should be simple.

b) The trace_tipc_*_dump() should be reserved for a failure cases only
(e.g. the retransmission failure case) or where we do not expect to
happen too often, then we can consider enabling these events by default
since they will almost not take any effects under normal conditions,
but once the rare condition or failure occurs, we get the dumped data
fully for post-analysis.

For other trace purposes, we can reuse these trace classes as template
but different events.

c) A trace_event is only effective when we enable it. To enable the
TIPC trace_events, echo 1 to 'enable' files in the events/tipc/
directory in the 'debugfs' file system. Normally, they are located at:

/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tipc/

For example:

To enable the tipc_link_dump event:

echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tipc/tipc_link_dump/enable

To enable all the TIPC trace_events:

echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tipc/enable

To collect the trace data:

cat trace

or

cat trace_pipe > /trace.out &

To disable all the TIPC trace_events:

echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tipc/enable

To clear the trace buffer:

echo > trace

d) Like the other trace_events, the feature like 'filter' or 'trigger'
is also usable for the tipc trace_events.
For more details, have a look at:

tipc: call start and done ops directly in __tipc_nl_compat_dumpit()

__tipc_nl_compat_dumpit() uses a netlink_callback on stack,
so the only way to align it with other ->dumpit() call path
is calling tipc_dump_start() and tipc_dump_done() directly
inside it. Otherwise ->dumpit() would always get NULL from
cb->args[].

But tipc_dump_start() uses sock_net(cb->skb->sk) to retrieve
net pointer, the cb->skb here doesn't set skb->sk, the net pointer
is saved in msg->net instead, so introduce a helper function
__tipc_dump_start() to pass in msg->net.

Ying pointed out cb->args[0...3] are already used by other
callbacks on this call path, so we can't use cb->args[0] any
more, use cb->args[4] instead.

tipc: switch to rhashtable iterator

syzbot reported a use-after-free in tipc_group_fill_sock_diag(),
where tipc_group_fill_sock_diag() still reads tsk->group meanwhile
tipc_group_delete() just deletes it in tipc_release().

tipc_nl_sk_walk() aims to lock this sock when walking each sock
in the hash table to close race conditions with sock changes like
this one, by acquiring tsk->sk.sk_lock.slock spinlock, unfortunately
this doesn't work at all. All non-BH call path should take
lock_sock() instead to make it work.

tipc_nl_sk_walk() brutally iterates with raw rht_for_each_entry_rcu()
where RCU read lock is required, this is the reason why lock_sock()
can't be taken on this path. This could be resolved by switching to
rhashtable iterator API's, where taking a sleepable lock is possible.
Also, the iterator API's are friendly for restartable calls like
diag dump, the last position is remembered behind the scence,
all we need to do here is saving the iterator into cb->args[].

I tested this with parallel tipc diag dump and thousands of tipc
socket creation and release, no crash or memory leak.

In tipc_sk_fill_sock_diag(), skb is the diag dump we are filling, it is not
correct to retrieve its NETLINK_CB(), instead, like other protocol diag,
we should use NETLINK_CB(cb->skb).sk here.

tipc: implement socket diagnostics for AF_TIPC

This commit adds socket diagnostics capability for AF_TIPC in netlink
family NETLINK_SOCK_DIAG in a new kernel module (diag.ko).

The following are key design considerations:
- config TIPC_DIAG has default y, like INET_DIAG.
- only requests with flag NLM_F_DUMP is supported (dump all).
- tipc_sock_diag_req message is introduced to send filter parameters.
- the response attributes are of TLV, some nested.

To avoid exposing data structures between diag and tipc modules and
avoid code duplication, the following additions are required:
- export tipc_nl_sk_walk function to reuse socket iterator.
- export tipc_sk_fill_sock_diag to fill the tipc diag attributes.
- create a sock_diag response message in __tipc_add_sock_diag defined
in diag.c and use the above exported tipc_sk_fill_sock_diag
to fill response.

There are two flow control mechanisms in TIPC; one at link level that
handles network congestion, burst control, and retransmission, and one
at connection level which' only remaining task is to prevent overflow
in the receiving socket buffer. In TIPC, the latter task has to be
solved end-to-end because messages can not be thrown away once they
have been accepted and delivered upwards from the link layer, i.e, we
can never permit the receive buffer to overflow.

Currently, this algorithm is message based. A counter in the receiving
socket keeps track of number of consumed messages, and sends a dedicated
acknowledge message back to the sender for each 256 consumed message.
A counter at the sending end keeps track of the sent, not yet
acknowledged messages, and blocks the sender if this number ever reaches
512 unacknowledged messages. When the missing acknowledge arrives, the
socket is then woken up for renewed transmission. This works well for
keeping the message flow running, as it almost never happens that a
sender socket is blocked this way.

A problem with the current mechanism is that it potentially is very
memory consuming. Since we don't distinguish between small and large
messages, we have to dimension the socket receive buffer according
to a worst-case of both. I.e., the window size must be chosen large
enough to sustain a reasonable throughput even for the smallest
messages, while we must still consider a scenario where all messages
are of maximum size. Hence, the current fix window size of 512 messages
and a maximum message size of 66k results in a receive buffer of 66 MB
when truesize(66k) = 131k is taken into account. It is possible to do
much better.

This commit introduces an algorithm where we instead use 1024-byte
blocks as base unit. This unit, always rounded upwards from the
actual message size, is used when we advertise windows as well as when
we count and acknowledge transmitted data. The advertised window is
based on the configured receive buffer size in such a way that even
the worst-case truesize/msgsize ratio always is covered. Since the
smallest possible message size (from a flow control viewpoint) now is
1024 bytes, we can safely assume this ratio to be less than four, which
is the value we are now using.

This way, we have been able to reduce the default receive buffer size
from 66 MB to 2 MB with maintained performance.

In order to keep this solution backwards compatible, we introduce a
new capability bit in the discovery protocol, and use this throughout
the message sending/reception path to always select the right unit.

tipc: clean up socket layer message reception

When a message is received in a socket, one of the call chains
tipc_sk_rcv()->tipc_sk_enqueue()->filter_rcv()(->tipc_sk_proto_rcv())
or
tipc_sk_backlog_rcv()->filter_rcv()(->tipc_sk_proto_rcv())
are followed. At each of these levels we may encounter situations
where the message may need to be rejected, or a new message
produced for transfer back to the sender. Despite recent
improvements, the current code for doing this is perceived
as awkward and hard to follow.

Leveraging the two previous commits in this series, we now
introduce a more uniform handling of such situations. We
let each of the functions in the chain itself produce/reverse
the message to be returned to the sender, but also perform the
actual forwarding. This simplifies the necessary logics within
each function.

tipc: fix netns refcnt leak

When the TIPC module is loaded, we launch a topology server in kernel
space, which in its turn is creating TIPC sockets for communication
with topology server users. Because both the socket's creator and
provider reside in the same module, it is necessary that the TIPC
module's reference count remains zero after the server is started and
the socket created; otherwise it becomes impossible to perform "rmmod"
even on an idle module.

Currently, we achieve this by defining a separate "tipc_proto_kern"
protocol struct, that is used only for kernel space socket allocations.
This structure has the "owner" field set to NULL, which restricts the
module reference count from being be bumped when sk_alloc() for local
sockets is called. Furthermore, we have defined three kernel-specific
functions, tipc_sock_create_local(), tipc_sock_release_local() and
tipc_sock_accept_local(), to avoid the module counter being modified
when module local sockets are created or deleted. This has worked well
until we introduced name space support.

However, after name space support was introduced, we have observed that
a reference count leak occurs, because the netns counter is not
decremented in tipc_sock_delete_local().

This commit remedies this problem. But instead of just modifying
tipc_sock_delete_local(), we eliminate the whole parallel socket
handling infrastructure, and start using the regular sk_create_kern(),
kernel_accept() and sk_release_kernel() calls. Since those functions
manipulate the module counter, we must now compensate for that by
explicitly decrementing the counter after module local sockets are
created, and increment it just before calling sk_release_kernel().

tipc: eliminate race condition at multicast reception

In a previous commit in this series we resolved a race problem during
unicast message reception.

Here, we resolve the same problem at multicast reception. We apply the
same technique: an input queue serializing the delivery of arriving
buffers. The main difference is that here we do it in two steps.
First, the broadcast link feeds arriving buffers into the tail of an
arrival queue, which head is consumed at the socket level, and where
destination lookup is performed. Second, if the lookup is successful,
the resulting buffer clones are fed into a second queue, the input
queue. This queue is consumed at reception in the socket just like
in the unicast case. Both queues are protected by the same lock, -the
one of the input queue.

tipc: simplify socket multicast reception

The structure 'tipc_port_list' is used to collect port numbers
representing multicast destination socket on a receiving node.
The list is not based on a standard linked list, and is in reality
optimized for the uncommon case that there are more than one
multicast destinations per node. This makes the list handling
unecessarily complex, and as a consequence, even the socket
multicast reception becomes more complex.

In this commit, we replace 'tipc_port_list' with a new 'struct
tipc_plist', which is based on a standard list. We give the new
list stack (push/pop) semantics, someting that simplifies
the implementation of the function tipc_sk_mcast_rcv().

tipc: resolve race problem at unicast message reception

TIPC handles message cardinality and sequencing at the link layer,
before passing messages upwards to the destination sockets. During the
upcall from link to socket no locks are held. It is therefore possible,
and we see it happen occasionally, that messages arriving in different
threads and delivered in sequence still bypass each other before they
reach the destination socket. This must not happen, since it violates
the sequentiality guarantee.

We solve this by adding a new input buffer queue to the link structure.
Arriving messages are added safely to the tail of that queue by the
link, while the head of the queue is consumed, also safely, by the
receiving socket. Sequentiality is secured per socket by only allowing
buffers to be dequeued inside the socket lock. Since there may be multiple
simultaneous readers of the queue, we use a 'filter' parameter to reduce
the risk that they peek the same buffer from the queue, hence also
reducing the risk of contention on the receiving socket locks.

This solves the sequentiality problem, and seems to cause no measurable
performance degradation.

A nice side effect of this change is that lock handling in the functions
tipc_rcv() and tipc_bcast_rcv() now becomes uniform, something that
will enable future simplifications of those functions.

Now tipc socket table is statically allocated as a global variable.
Through it, we can look up one socket instance with port ID, insert
a new socket instance to the table, and delete a socket from the

its specific socket table. So the global variable of socket table
must be redefined in tipc_net structure. As a concequence, a new
socket table will be allocated when a new namespace is created, and
a socket table will be deallocated when namespace is destroyed.

tipc: convert tipc reference table to use generic rhashtable

As tipc reference table is statically allocated, its memory size
requested on stack initialization stage is quite big even if the
maximum port number is just restricted to 8191 currently, however,
the number already becomes insufficient in practice. But if the
maximum ports is allowed to its theory value - 2^32, its consumed
memory size will reach a ridiculously unacceptable value. Apart from
this, heavy tipc users spend a considerable amount of time in
tipc_sk_get() due to the read-lock on ref_table_lock.

If tipc reference table is converted with generic rhashtable, above
mentioned both disadvantages would be resolved respectively: making
use of the new resizable hash table can avoid locking on the lookup;
smaller memory size is required at initial stage, for example, 256
hash bucket slots are requested at the beginning phase instead of
allocating the entire 8191 slots in old mode. The hash table will
grow if entries exceeds 75% of table size up to a total table size
of 1M, and it will automatically shrink if usage falls below 30%,
but the minimum table size is allowed down to 256.

Also converts ref_table_lock to a separate mutex to protect hash table
mutations on write side. Lastly defers the release of the socket
reference using call_rcu() to allow using an RCU read-side protected
call to rhashtable_lookup().
