      tipc: refactor accept() code for improved readability · 0fef8f20
      Paul Gortmaker authored
      In TIPC's accept() routine, there is a large block of code relating
      to initialization of a new socket, all within an if condition checking
      if the allocation succeeded.
      
      Here, we simply flip the check of the if, so that the main execution
      path stays at the same indentation level, which improves readability.
      If the allocation fails, we jump to an already existing exit label.

      tipc: add lock nesting notation to quiet lockdep warning · 258f8667
      Ying Xue authored
      TIPC accept() call grabs the socket lock on a newly allocated
      socket while holding the socket lock on an old socket. But lockdep
      worries that this might be a recursive lock attempt:
      
        [ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]
        ---------------------------------------------
        kworker/u:0/6 is trying to acquire lock:
        (sk_lock-AF_TIPC){+.+.+.}, at: [<c8c1226c>] accept+0x15c/0x310 [tipc]
      
        but task is already holding lock:
        (sk_lock-AF_TIPC){+.+.+.}, at: [<c8c12138>] accept+0x28/0x310 [tipc]
      
        other info that might help us debug this:
        Possible unsafe locking scenario:
      
                CPU0
                ----
                lock(sk_lock-AF_TIPC);
                lock(sk_lock-AF_TIPC);
      
                *** DEADLOCK ***
      
        May be due to missing lock nesting notation
        [...]
      
      Tell lockdep that this locking is safe by using lock_sock_nested().
      This is similar to what was done in commit 5131a184 for
      SCTP code ("SCTP: lock_sock_nested in sctp_sock_migrate").
      
      Also note that this is isn't something that is seen normally,
      as it was uncovered with some experimental work-in-progress
      code not yet ready for mainline.  So no need for stable
      backports or similar of this commit.

      tipc: eliminate connection setup for implied connect in recv_msg() · cbab3687
      Ying Xue authored
      As connection setup is now completed asynchronously in BH context,
      in the function filter_connect(), the corresponding code in recv_msg()
      becomes redundant.

      tipc: introduce non-blocking socket connect · 584d24b3
      Ying Xue authored
      TIPC has so far only supported blocking connect(), meaning that a call
      to connect() doesn't return until either the connection is fully
      established, or an error occurs. This has proved insufficient for many
      users, so we now introduce non-blocking connect(), analogous to how
      this is done in TCP and other protocols.
      
      With this feature, if a connection cannot be established instantly,
      connect() will return the error code "-EINPROGRESS".
      If the user later calls connect() again, he will either have the
      return code "-EALREADY" or "-EISCONN", depending on whether the
      connection has been established or not.
      
      The user must have explicitly set the socket to be non-blocking
      (SOCK_NONBLOCK or O_NONBLOCK, depending on method used), so unless
      for some reason they had set this already (the socket would anyway
      remain blocking in current TIPC) this change should be completely
      backwards compatible.
      
      It is also now possible to call select() or poll() to wait for the
      completion of a connection.
      
      An effect of the above is that the actual completion of a connection
      may now be performed asynchronously, independent of the calls from
      user space. Therefore, we now execute this code in BH context, in
      the function filter_rcv(), which is executed upon reception of
      messages in the socket.

      tipc: consolidate connection-oriented message reception in one function · 7e6c131e
      Ying Xue authored
      Handling of connection-related message reception is currently scattered
      around at different places in the code. This makes it harder to verify
      that things are handled correctly in all possible scenarios.
      So we consolidate the existing processing of connection-oriented
      message reception in a single routine.  In the process, we convert the
      chain of if/else into a switch/case for improved readability.
      
      A cast on the socket_state in the switch is needed to avoid compile
      warnings on 32 bit, like "net/tipc/socket.c:1252:2: warning: case value
      ‘4294967295’ not in enumerated type".  This happens because existing
      tipc code pseudo extends the default linux socket state values with:
      
      	#define SS_LISTENING    -1      /* socket is listening */
      	#define SS_READY        -2      /* socket is connectionless */
      
      It may make sense to add these as _positive_ values to the existing
      socket state enum list someday, vs. these already existing defines.

      tipc: standardize across connect/disconnect function naming · bc879117
      Paul Gortmaker authored
      Currently we have tipc_disconnect and tipc_disconnect_port.  It is
      not clear from the names alone, what they do or how they differ.
      It turns out that tipc_disconnect just deals with the port locking
      and then calls tipc_disconnect_port which does all the work.
      
      If we rename as follows: tipc_disconnect_port --> __tipc_disconnect
      then we will be following typical linux convention, where:
      
         __tipc_disconnect: "raw" function that does all the work.
      
         tipc_disconnect: wrapper that deals with locking and then calls
      		    the real core __tipc_disconnect function
      
      With this, the difference is immediately evident, and locking
      violations are more apt to be spotted by chance while working on,
      or even just while reading the code.
      
      On the connect side of things, we currently only have the single
      "tipc_connect2port" function.  It does both the locking at enter/exit,
      and the core of the work.  Pending changes will make it desireable to
      have the connect be a two part locking wrapper + worker function,
      just like the disconnect is already.
      
      Here, we make the connect look just like the updated disconnect case,
      for the above reason, and for consistency.  In the process, we also
      get rid of the "2port" suffix that was on the original name, since
      it adds no descriptive value.
      
      On close examination, one might notice that the above connect
      changes implicitly move the call to tipc_link_get_max_pkt() to be
      within the scope of tipc_port_lock() protected region; when it was
      not previously.  We don't see any issues with this, and it is in
      keeping with __tipc_connect doing the work and tipc_connect just
      handling the locking.

      The sk_recv_queue upper limit for connectionless sockets has empirically
      turned out to be too low. When we double the current limit we get much
      fewer rejected messages and no noticable negative side-effects.

      bridge: export multicast database via netlink · ee07c6e7
      Cong Wang authored
      V5: fix two bugs pointed out by Thomas
          remove seq check for now, mark it as TODO
      
      V4: remove some useless #include
          some coding style fix
      
      V3: drop debugging printk's
          update selinux perm table as well
      
      V2: drop patch 1/2, export ifindex directly
          Redesign netlink attributes
          Improve netlink seq check
          Handle IPv6 addr as well
      
      This patch exports bridge multicast database via netlink
      message type RTM_GETMDB. Similar to fdb, but currently bridge-specific.
      We may need to support modify multicast database too (RTM_{ADD,DEL}MDB).
