As a preparation for the 'replicast' functionality we are going to
introduce in the next commits, we need the broadcast base structure to
store whether bearer broadcast is available at all from the currently
used bearer or bearers.
We do this by adding a new function tipc_bearer_bcast_support() to
the bearer layer, and letting the bearer selection function in
bcast.c use this to give a new boolean field, 'bcast_support' the
appropriate value.

Until now, we allocate memory always with GFP_ATOMIC flag.
When the system is under memory pressure and a user tries to send,
the send fails due to low memory. However, the user application
can wait for free memory if we allocate it using GFP_KERNEL flag.
In this commit, we use allocate memory with GFP_KERNEL for all user
allocation.

The socket code currently handles link congestion by either blocking
and trying to send again when the congestion has abated, or just
returning to the user with -EAGAIN and let him re-try later.
This mechanism is prone to starvation, because the wakeup algorithm is
non-atomic. During the time the link issues a wakeup signal, until the
socket wakes up and re-attempts sending, other senders may have come
in between and occupied the free buffer space in the link. This in turn
may lead to a socket having to make many send attempts before it is
successful. In extremely loaded systems we have observed latency times
of several seconds before a low-priority socket is able to send out a
message.
In this commit, we simplify this mechanism and reduce the risk of the
described scenario happening. When a message is attempted sent via a
congested link, we now let it be added to the link's backlog queue
anyway, thus permitting an oversubscription of one message per source
socket. We still create a wakeup item and return an error code, hence
instructing the sender to block or stop sending. Only when enough space
has been freed up in the link's backlog queue do we issue a wakeup event
that allows the sender to continue with the next message, if any.
The fact that a socket now can consider a message sent even when the
link returns a congestion code means that the sending socket code can
be simplified. Also, since this is a good opportunity to get rid of the
obsolete 'mtu change' condition in the three socket send functions, we
now choose to refactor those functions completely.

In commit 6f00089c73 ("tipc: remove SS_DISCONNECTING state") the
check for socket type is in the wrong place, causing a closing socket
to always send out a FIN message even when the socket was never
connected. This is normally harmless, since the destination node for
such messages most often is zero, and the message will be dropped, but
it is still a wrong and confusing behavior.
We fix this in this commit.

Couple conflicts resolved here:
1) In the MACB driver, a bug fix to properly initialize the
RX tail pointer properly overlapped with some changes
to support variable sized rings.
2) In XGBE we had a "CONFIG_PM" --> "CONFIG_PM_SLEEP" fix
overlapping with a reorganization of the driver to support
ACPI, OF, as well as PCI variants of the chip.
3) In 'net' we had several probe error path bug fixes to the
stmmac driver, meanwhile a lot of this code was cleaned up
and reorganized in 'net-next'.
4) The cls_flower classifier obtained a helper function in
'net-next' called __fl_delete() and this overlapped with
Daniel Borkamann's bug fix to use RCU for object destruction
in 'net'. It also overlapped with Jiri's change to guard
the rhashtable_remove_fast() call with a check against
tc_skip_sw().
5) In mlx4, a revert bug fix in 'net' overlapped with some
unrelated changes in 'net-next'.
6) In geneve, a stale header pointer after pskb_expand_head()
bug fix in 'net' overlapped with a large reorganization of
the same code in 'net-next'. Since the 'net-next' code no
longer had the bug in question, there was nothing to do

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.

In commit e4bf4f7696 ("tipc: simplify packet sequence number
handling") we changed the internal representation of the packet
sequence number counters from u32 to u16, reflecting what is really
sent over the wire.
Since then some link statistics counters have been displaying incorrect
values, partially because the counters meant to be used as sequence
number snapshots are now used as direct counters, stored as u32, and
partially because some counter updates are just missing in the code.
In this commit we correct this in two ways. First, we base the
displayed packet sent/received values on direct counters instead
of as previously a calculated difference between current sequence
number and a snapshot. Second, we add the missing updates of the
counters.
This change is compatible with the current netlink API, and requires
no changes to the user space tools.

In commit 10724cc7bb ("tipc: redesign connection-level flow control")
we replaced the previous message based flow control with one based on
1k blocks. In order to ensure backwards compatibility the mechanism
falls back to using message as base unit when it senses that the peer
doesn't support the new algorithm. The default flow control window,
i.e., how many units can be sent before the sender blocks and waits
for an acknowledge (aka advertisement) is 512. This was tested against
the previous version, which uses an acknowledge frequency of on ack per
256 received message, and found to work fine.
However, we missed the fact that versions older than Linux 3.15 use an
acknowledge frequency of 512, which is exactly the limit where a 4.6+
sender will stop and wait for acknowledge. This would also work fine if
it weren't for the fact that if the first sent message on a 4.6+ server
side is an empty SYNACK, this one is also is counted as a sent message,
while it is not counted as a received message on a legacy 3.15-receiver.
This leads to the sender always being one step ahead of the receiver, a
scenario causing the sender to block after 512 sent messages, while the
receiver only has registered 511 read messages. Hence, the legacy
receiver is not trigged to send an acknowledge, with a permanently
blocked sender as result.
We solve this deadlock by simply allowing the sender to send one more
message before it blocks, i.e., by a making minimal change to the
condition used for determining connection congestion.

In commit 35c55c9877 ("tipc: add neighbor monitoring framework") we
added a data area to the link monitor STATE messages under the
assumption that previous versions did not use any such data area.
For versions older than Linux 4.3 this assumption is not correct. In
those version, all STATE messages sent out from a node inadvertently
contain a 16 byte data area containing a string; -a leftover from
previous RESET messages which were using this during the setup phase.
This string serves no purpose in STATE messages, and should no be there.
Unfortunately, this data area is delivered to the link monitor
framework, where a sanity check catches that it is not a correct domain
record, and drops it. It also issues a rate limited warning about the
event.
Since such events occur much more frequently than anticipated, we now
choose to remove the warning in order to not fill the kernel log with
useless contents. We also make the sanity check stricter, to further
reduce the risk that such data is inavertently admitted.

commit 817298102b ("tipc: fix link priority propagation") introduced a
compatibility problem between TIPC versions newer than Linux 4.6 and
those older than Linux 4.4. In versions later than 4.4, link STATE
messages only contain a non-zero link priority value when the sender
wants the receiver to change its priority. This has the effect that the
receiver resets itself in order to apply the new priority. This works
well, and is consistent with the said commit.
However, in versions older than 4.4 a valid link priority is present in
all sent link STATE messages, leading to cyclic link establishment and
reset on the 4.6+ node.
We fix this by adding a test that the received value should not only
be valid, but also differ from the current value in order to cause the
receiving link endpoint to reset.

All conflicts were simple overlapping changes except perhaps
for the Thunder driver.
That driver has a change_mtu method explicitly for sending
a message to the hardware. If that fails it returns an
error.
Normally a driver doesn't need an ndo_change_mtu method becuase those
are usually just range changes, which are now handled generically.
But since this extra operation is needed in the Thunder driver, it has
to stay.
However, if the message send fails we have to restore the original
MTU before the change because the entire call chain expects that if
an error is thrown by ndo_change_mtu then the MTU did not change.
Therefore code is added to nicvf_change_mtu to remember the original
MTU, and to restore it upon nicvf_update_hw_max_frs() failue.

Make struct pernet_operations::id unsigned.
There are 2 reasons to do so:
1)
This field is really an index into an zero based array and
thus is unsigned entity. Using negative value is out-of-bound
access by definition.
2)
On x86_64 unsigned 32-bit data which are mixed with pointers
via array indexing or offsets added or subtracted to pointers
are preffered to signed 32-bit data.
"int" being used as an array index needs to be sign-extended
to 64-bit before being used.
void f(long *p, int i)
{
g(p[i]);
}
roughly translates to
movsx rsi, esi
mov rdi, [rsi+...]
call g
MOVSX is 3 byte instruction which isn't necessary if the variable is
unsigned because x86_64 is zero extending by default.
Now, there is net_generic() function which, you guessed it right, uses
"int" as an array index:
static inline void *net_generic(const struct net *net, int id)
{
...
ptr = ng->ptr[id - 1];
...
}
And this function is used a lot, so those sign extensions add up.
Patch snipes ~1730 bytes on allyesconfig kernel (without all junk
messing with code generation):
add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 70/598 up/down: 396/-2126 (-1730)
Unfortunately some functions actually grow bigger.
This is a semmingly random artefact of code generation with register
allocator being used differently. gcc decides that some variable
needs to live in new r8+ registers and every access now requires REX
prefix. Or it is shifted into r12, so [r12+0] addressing mode has to be
used which is longer than [r8]

In commit 2d18ac4ba7 ("tipc: extend broadcast link initialization
criteria") we tried to fix a problem with the initial synchronization
of broadcast link acknowledge values. Unfortunately that solution is
not sufficient to solve the issue.
We have seen it happen that LINK_PROTOCOL/STATE packets with a valid
non-zero unicast acknowledge number may bypass BCAST_PROTOCOL
initialization, NAME_DISTRIBUTOR and other STATE packets with invalid
broadcast acknowledge numbers, leading to premature opening of the
broadcast link. When the bypassed packets finally arrive, they are
inadvertently accepted, and the already correctly initialized
acknowledge number in the broadcast receive link is overwritten by
the invalid (zero) value of the said packets. After this the broadcast
link goes stale.
We now fix this by marking the packets where we know the acknowledge
value is or may be invalid, and then ignoring the acks from those.
To this purpose, we claim an unused bit in the header to indicate that
the value is invalid. We set the bit to 1 in the initial BCAST_PROTOCOL
synchronization packet and all initial ("bulk") NAME_DISTRIBUTOR
packets, plus those LINK_PROTOCOL packets sent out before the broadcast
links are fully synchronized.
This minor protocol update is fully backwards compatible.

Now genl_register_family() is the only thing (other than the
users themselves, perhaps, but I didn't find any doing that)
writing to the family struct.
In all families that I found, genl_register_family() is only
called from __init functions (some indirectly, in which case
I've add __init annotations to clarifly things), so all can
actually be marked __ro_after_init.
This protects the data structure from accidental corruption.

Instead of providing macros/inline functions to initialize
the families, make all users initialize them statically and
get rid of the macros.
This reduces the kernel code size by about 1.6k on x86-64
(with allyesconfig).

Static family IDs have never really been used, the only
use case was the workaround I introduced for those users
that assumed their family ID was also their multicast
group ID.
Additionally, because static family IDs would never be
reserved by the generic netlink code, using a relatively
low ID would only work for built-in families that can be
registered immediately after generic netlink is started,
which is basically only the control family (apart from
the workaround code, which I also had to add code for so
it would reserve those IDs)
Thus, anything other than GENL_ID_GENERATE is flawed and
luckily not used except in the cases I mentioned. Move
those workarounds into a few lines of code, and then get
rid of GENL_ID_GENERATE entirely, making it more robust.

This helper function allows family implementations to access
their family's attrbuf. This gets rid of the attrbuf usage
in families, and also adds locking validation, since it's not
valid to use the attrbuf with parallel_ops or outside of the
dumpit callback.

Because of the risk of an excessive number of NACK messages and
retransissions, receivers have until now abstained from sending
broadcast NACKS directly upon detection of a packet sequence number
gap. We have instead relied on such gaps being detected by link
protocol STATE message exchange, something that by necessity delays
such detection and subsequent retransmissions.
With the introduction of unicast NACK transmission and rate control
of retransmissions we can now remove this limitation. We now allow
receiving nodes to send NACKS immediately, while coordinating the
permission to do so among the nodes in order to avoid NACK storms.

As cluster sizes grow, so does the amount of identical or overlapping
broadcast NACKs generated by the packet receivers. This often leads to
'NACK crunches' resulting in huge numbers of redundant retransmissions
of the same packet ranges.
In this commit, we introduce rate control of broadcast retransmissions,
so that a retransmitted range cannot be retransmitted again until after
at least 10 ms. This reduces the frequency of duplicate, redundant
retransmissions by an order of magnitude, while having a significant
positive impact on overall throughput and scalability.

When we send broadcasts in clusters of more 70-80 nodes, we sometimes
see the broadcast link resetting because of an excessive number of
retransmissions. This is caused by a combination of two factors:
1) A 'NACK crunch", where loss of broadcast packets is discovered
and NACK'ed by several nodes simultaneously, leading to multiple
redundant broadcast retransmissions.
2) The fact that the NACKS as such also are sent as broadcast, leading
to excessive load and packet loss on the transmitting switch/bridge.
This commit deals with the latter problem, by moving sending of
broadcast nacks from the dedicated BCAST_PROTOCOL/NACK message type
to regular unicast LINK_PROTOCOL/STATE messages. We allocate 10 unused
bits in word 8 of the said message for this purpose, and introduce a
new capability bit, TIPC_BCAST_STATE_NACK in order to keep the change
backwards compatible.

In a dual bearer configuration, if the second tipc link becomes
active while the first link still has pending nametable "bulk"
updates, it randomly leads to reset of the second link.
When a link is established, the function named_distribute(),
fills the skb based on node mtu (allows room for TUNNEL_PROTOCOL)
with NAME_DISTRIBUTOR message for each PUBLICATION.
However, the function named_distribute() allocates the buffer by
increasing the node mtu by INT_H_SIZE (to insert NAME_DISTRIBUTOR).
This consumes the space allocated for TUNNEL_PROTOCOL.
When establishing the second link, the link shall tunnel all the
messages in the first link queue including the "bulk" update.
As size of the NAME_DISTRIBUTOR messages while tunnelling, exceeds
the link mtu the transmission fails (-EMSGSIZE).
Thus, the synch point based on the message count of the tunnel
packets is never reached leading to link timeout.
In this commit, we adjust the size of name distributor message so that
they can be tunnelled.
