None of the spinlocks in rxrpc need a _bh annotation now as the RCU
callback routines no longer take spinlocks and the bulk of the packet
wrangling code is now run in the I/O thread, not softirq context.

Move the functions from the call->processor and local->processor work items
into the domain of the I/O thread.
The call event processor, now called from the I/O thread, then takes over
the job of cranking the call state machine, processing incoming packets and
transmitting DATA, ACK and ABORT packets. In a future patch,
rxrpc_send_ACK() will transmit the ACK on the spot rather than queuing it
for later transmission.
The call event processor becomes purely received-skb driven. It only
transmits things in response to events. We use "pokes" to queue a dummy
skb to make it do things like start/resume transmitting data. Timer expiry
also results in pokes.
The connection event processor, becomes similar, though crypto events, such
as dealing with CHALLENGE and RESPONSE packets is offloaded to a work item
to avoid doing crypto in the I/O thread.
The local event processor is removed and VERSION response packets are
generated directly from the packet parser. Similarly, ABORTs generated in
response to protocol errors will be transmitted immediately rather than
being pushed onto a queue for later transmission.

A received skbuff needs a ref when it gets put on a call data queue or conn
packet queue, and rxrpc_input_packet() and co. jump through a lot of hoops
to avoid double-dropping the skbuff ref so that we can avoid getting a ref
when we queue the packet.
Change this so that the skbuff ref is unconditionally dropped by the caller
of rxrpc_input_packet(). An additional ref is then taken on the packet if
it is pushed onto a queue.

rxrpc has a problem in its congestion management in that it saves the
congestion window size (cwnd) from one call to another, but if this is 0 at
the time is saved, then the next call may not actually manage to ever
transmit anything.
To this end:
(1) Don't save cwnd between calls, but rather reset back down to the
initial cwnd and re-enter slow-start if data transmission is idle for
more than an RTT.
(2) Preserve ssthresh instead, as that is a handy estimate of pipe
capacity. Knowing roughly when to stop slow start and enter
congestion avoidance can reduce the tendency to overshoot and drop
larger amounts of packets when probing.
In future, cwind growth also needs to be constrained when the window isn't
being filled due to being application limited.

Improve the tracking of which packets need to be transmitted by saving the
last ACK packet that we receive that has a populated soft-ACK table rather
than marking packets. Then we can step through the soft-ACK table and look
at the packets we've transmitted beyond that to determine which packets we
might want to retransmit.
We also look at the highest serial number that has been acked to try and
guess which packets we've transmitted the peer is likely to have seen. If
necessary, we send a ping to retrieve that number.
One downside that might be a problem is that we can't then compare the
previous acked/unacked state so easily in rxrpc_input_soft_acks() - which
is a potential problem for the slow-start algorithm.

Change the way the Tx queueing works to make the following ends easier to
achieve:
(1) The filling of packets, the encryption of packets and the transmission
of packets can be handled in parallel by separate threads, rather than
rxrpc_sendmsg() allocating, filling, encrypting and transmitting each
packet before moving onto the next one.
(2) Get rid of the fixed-size ring which sets a hard limit on the number
of packets that can be retained in the ring. This allows the number
of packets to increase without having to allocate a very large ring or
having variable-sized rings.
[Note: the downside of this is that it's then less efficient to locate
a packet for retransmission as we then have to step through a list and
examine each buffer in the list.]
(3) Allow the filler/encrypter to run ahead of the transmission window.
(4) Make it easier to do zero copy UDP from the packet buffers.
(5) Make it easier to do zero copy from userspace to the packet buffers -
and thence to UDP (only if for unauthenticated connections).
To that end, the following changes are made:
(1) Use the new rxrpc_txbuf struct instead of sk_buff for keeping packets
to be transmitted in. This allows them to be placed on multiple
queues simultaneously. An sk_buff isn't really necessary as it's
never passed on to lower-level networking code.
(2) Keep the transmissable packets in a linked list on the call struct
rather than in a ring. As a consequence, the annotation buffer isn't
used either; rather a flag is set on the packet to indicate ackedness.
(3) Use the RXRPC_CALL_TX_LAST flag to indicate that the last packet to be
transmitted has been queued. Add RXRPC_CALL_TX_ALL_ACKED to indicate
that all packets up to and including the last got hard acked.
(4) Wire headers are now stored in the txbuf rather than being concocted
on the stack and they're stored immediately before the data, thereby
allowing zerocopy of a single span.
(5) Don't bother with instant-resend on transmission failure; rather,
leave it for a timer or an ACK packet to trigger.

Get rid of the Rx ring and replace it with a pair of queues instead. One
queue gets the packets that are in-sequence and are ready for processing by
recvmsg(); the other queue gets the out-of-sequence packets for addition to
the first queue as the holes get filled.
The annotation ring is removed and replaced with a SACK table. The SACK
table has the bits set that correspond exactly to the sequence number of
the packet being acked. The SACK ring is copied when an ACK packet is
being assembled and rotated so that the first ACK is in byte 0.
Flow control handling is altered so that packets that are moved to the
in-sequence queue are hard-ACK'd even before they're consumed - and then
the Rx window size in the ACK packet (rsize) is shrunk down to compensate
(even going to 0 if the window is full).

Split up received jumbo packets into separate skbuffs by cloning the
original skbuff for each subpacket and setting the offset and length of the
data in that subpacket in the skbuff's private data. The subpackets are
then placed on the recvmsg queue separately. The security class then gets
to revise the offset and length to remove its metadata.
If we fail to clone a packet, we just drop it and let the peer resend it.
The original packet gets used for the final subpacket.
This should make it easier to handle parallel decryption of the subpackets.
It also simplifies the handling of lost or misordered packets in the
queuing/buffering loop as the possibility of overlapping jumbo packets no
longer needs to be considered.

Clean up the rxrpc_propose_ACK() function. If deferred PING ACK proposal
is split out, it's only really needed for deferred DELAY ACKs. All other
ACKs, bar terminal IDLE ACK are sent immediately. The deferred IDLE ACK
submission can be handled by conversion of a DELAY ACK into an IDLE ACK if
there's nothing to be SACK'd.
Also, because there's a delay between an ACK being generated and being
transmitted, it's possible that other ACKs of the same type will be
generated during that interval. Apart from the ACK time and the serial
number responded to, most of the ACK body, including window and SACK
parameters, are not filled out till the point of transmission - so we can
avoid generating a new ACK if there's one pending that will cover the SACK
data we need to convey.
Therefore, don't propose a new DELAY or IDLE ACK for a call if there's one
already pending.

If a client's address changes, say if it is NAT'd, this can disrupt an in
progress operation. For most operations, this is not much of a problem,
but StoreData can be different as some servers modify the target file as
the data comes in, so if a store request is disrupted, the file can get
corrupted on the server.
The problem is that the server doesn't recognise packets that come after
the change of address as belonging to the original client and will bounce
them, either by sending an OUT_OF_SEQUENCE ACK to the apparent new call if
the packet number falls within the initial sequence number window of a call
or by sending an EXCEEDS_WINDOW ACK if it falls outside and then aborting
it. In both cases, firstPacket will be 1 and previousPacket will be 0 in
the ACK information.
Fix this by the following means:
(1) If a client call receives an EXCEEDS_WINDOW ACK with firstPacket as 1
and previousPacket as 0, assume this indicates that the server saw the
incoming packets from a different peer and thus as a different call.
Fail the call with error -ENETRESET.
(2) Also fail the call if a similar OUT_OF_SEQUENCE ACK occurs if the
first packet has been hard-ACK'd. If it hasn't been hard-ACK'd, the
ACK packet will cause it to get retransmitted, so the call will just
be repeated.
(3) Make afs_select_fileserver() treat -ENETRESET as a straight fail of
the operation.
(4) Prioritise the error code over things like -ECONNRESET as the server
did actually respond.
(5) Make writeback treat -ENETRESET as a retryable error and make it
redirty all the pages involved in a write so that the VM will retry.
Note that there is still a circumstance that I can't easily deal with: if
the operation is fully received and processed by the server, but the reply
is lost due to address change. There's no way to know if the op happened.
We can examine the server, but a conflicting change could have been made by
a third party - and we can't tell the difference. In such a case, a
message like:
kAFS: vnode modified {100058:146266} b7->b8 YFS.StoreData64 (op=2646a)
will be logged to dmesg on the next op to touch the file and the client
will reset the inode state, including invalidating clean parts of the
pagecache.

The Rx protocol has a mechanism to help generate RTT samples that works by
a client transmitting a REQUESTED-type ACK when it receives a DATA packet
that has the REQUEST_ACK flag set.
The peer, however, may interpose other ACKs before transmitting the
REQUESTED-ACK, as can be seen in the following trace excerpt:
rxrpc_tx_data: c=00000044 DATA d0b5ece8:00000001 00000001 q=00000001 fl=07
rxrpc_rx_ack: c=00000044 00000001 PNG r=00000000 f=00000002 p=00000000 n=0
rxrpc_rx_ack: c=00000044 00000002 REQ r=00000001 f=00000002 p=00000001 n=0
...
DATA packet 1 (q=xx) has REQUEST_ACK set (bit 1 of fl=xx). The incoming
ping (labelled PNG) hard-acks the request DATA packet (f=xx exceeds the
sequence number of the DATA packet), causing it to be discarded from the Tx
ring. The ACK that was requested (labelled REQ, r=xx references the serial
of the DATA packet) comes after the ping, but the sk_buff holding the
timestamp has gone and the RTT sample is lost.
This is particularly noticeable on RPC calls used to probe the service
offered by the peer. A lot of peers end up with an unknown RTT because we
only ever sent a single RPC. This confuses the server rotation algorithm.
Fix this by caching the information about the outgoing packet in RTT
calculations in the rxrpc_call struct rather than looking in the Tx ring.
A four-deep buffer is maintained and both REQUEST_ACK-flagged DATA and
PING-ACK transmissions are recorded in there. When the appropriate
response ACK is received, the buffer is checked for a match and, if found,
an RTT sample is recorded.
If a received ACK refers to a packet with a later serial number than an
entry in the cache, that entry is presumed lost and the entry is made
available to record a new transmission.
ACKs types other than REQUESTED-type and PING-type cause any matching
sample to be cancelled as they don't necessarily represent a useful
measurement.
If there's no space in the buffer on ping/data transmission, the sample
base is discarded.

The handling of the receive window size (rwind) from a received ACK packet
is not correct. The rxrpc_input_ackinfo() function currently checks the
current Tx window size against the rwind from the ACK to see if it has
changed, but then limits the rwind size before storing it in the tx_winsize
member and, if it increased, wake up the transmitting process. This means
that if rwind > RXRPC_RXTX_BUFF_SIZE - 1, this path will always be
followed.
Fix this by limiting rwind before we compare it to tx_winsize.
The effect of this can be seen by enabling the rxrpc_rx_rwind_change
tracepoint.

Under some circumstances, rxrpc will fail a transmit a packet through the
underlying UDP socket (ie. UDP sendmsg returns an error). This may result
in a call getting stuck.
In the instance being seen, where AFS tries to send a probe to the Volume
Location server, tracepoints show the UDP Tx failure (in this case returing
error 99 EADDRNOTAVAIL) and then nothing more:
afs_make_vl_call: c=0000015d VL.GetCapabilities
rxrpc_call: c=0000015d NWc u=1 sp=rxrpc_kernel_begin_call+0x106/0x170 [rxrpc] a=00000000dd89ee8a

rxrpc_tx_fail: c=0000015d r=1 ret=-99 CallDataNofrag
The problem is that if the initial packet fails and the retransmission
timer hasn't been started, the call is set to completed and an error is
returned from rxrpc_send_data_packet() to rxrpc_queue_packet(). Though
rxrpc_instant_resend() is called, this does nothing because the call is
marked completed.
So rxrpc_notify_socket() isn't called and the error is passed back up to
rxrpc_send_data(), rxrpc_kernel_send_data() and thence to afs_make_call()
and afs_vl_get_capabilities() where it is simply ignored because it is
assumed that the result of a probe will be collected asynchronously.
Fileserver probing is similarly affected via afs_fs_get_capabilities().
Fix this by always issuing a notification in __rxrpc_set_call_completion()
if it shifts a call to the completed state, even if an error is also
returned to the caller through the function return value.
Also put in a little bit of optimisation to avoid taking the call
state_lock and disabling softirqs if the call is already in the completed
state and remove some now redundant rxrpc_notify_socket() calls.

The Rx protocol has a "previousPacket" field in it that is not handled in
the same way by all protocol implementations. Sometimes it contains the
serial number of the last DATA packet received, sometimes the sequence
number of the last DATA packet received and sometimes the highest sequence
number so far received.
AF_RXRPC is using this to weed out ACKs that are out of date (it's possible
for ACK packets to get reordered on the wire), but this does not work with
OpenAFS which will just stick the sequence number of the last packet seen
into previousPacket.
The issue being seen is that big AFS FS.StoreData RPC (eg. of ~256MiB) are
timing out when partly sent. A trace was captured, with an additional
tracepoint to show ACKs being discarded in rxrpc_input_ack(). Here's an
excerpt showing the problem.
52873.203230: rxrpc_tx_data: c=000004ae DATA ed1a3584:00000002 0002449c q=00024499 fl=09
A DATA packet with sequence number 00024499 has been transmitted (the "q="
field).
...
52873.243296: rxrpc_rx_ack: c=000004ae 00012a2b DLY r=00024499 f=00024497 p=00024496 n=0

The Out-Of-Sequence ACK indicates that the server didn't see DATA sequence
number 00024499, but did see seq 0002449a (previousPacket, shown as "p=",
skipped the number, but firstPacket, "f=", which shows the bottom of the
window is set at that point).
52873.252663: rxrpc_retransmit: c=000004ae q=24499 a=02 xp=14581537
52873.252664: rxrpc_tx_data: c=000004ae DATA ed1a3584:00000002 000244bc q=00024499 fl=0b *RETRANS*
The packet has been retransmitted. Retransmission recurs until the peer
says it got the packet.
52873.271013: rxrpc_rx_ack: c=000004ae 00012a31 OOS r=000244a1 f=00024499 p=0002449e n=6
More OOS ACKs indicate that the other packets that are already in the
transmission pipeline are being received. The specific-ACK list is up to 6
ACKs and NAKs.

52873.284792: rxrpc_rx_ack: c=000004ae 00012a49 OOS r=000244b9 f=00024499 p=000244b6 n=30

At this point, the server's receive window is full (n=32) with presumably 1
NAK'd packet and 31 ACK'd packets. We can't transmit any more packets.
52873.287488: rxrpc_retransmit: c=000004ae q=24499 a=0a xp=61327980
52873.287489: rxrpc_tx_data: c=000004ae DATA ed1a3584:00000002 000244c3 q=00024499 fl=0b *RETRANS*

And now we've received an ACK indicating that a DATA retransmission was
received. 7 packets have been processed (the occupied part of the window
moved, as indicated by f= and n=).
52873.293853: rxrpc_rx_discard_ack: c=000004ae r=00012a4c 000244a0<00024499 00024499<000244b8
However, the DLY ACK gets discarded because its previousPacket has gone
backwards (from p=000244b8, in the ACK at 52873.287478 to p=00024499 in the
ACK at 52873.293850).
We then end up in a continuous cycle of retransmit/discard. kafs fails to
update its window because it's discarding the ACKs and can't transmit an
extra packet that would clear the issue because the window is full.
OpenAFS doesn't change the previousPacket value in the ACKs because no new
DATA packets are received with a different previousPacket number.
Fix this by altering the discard check to only discard an ACK based on
previousPacket if there was no advance in the firstPacket. This allows us
to transmit a new packet which will cause previousPacket to advance in the
next ACK.
The check, however, needs to allow for the possibility that previousPacket
may actually have had the serial number placed in it instead - in which
case it will go outside the window and we should ignore it.

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.

Fix the handling of signals in client rxrpc calls made by the afs
filesystem. Ignore signals completely, leaving call abandonment or
connection loss to be detected by timeouts inside AF_RXRPC.
Allowing a filesystem call to be interrupted after the entire request has
been transmitted and an abort sent means that the server may or may not
have done the action - and we don't know. It may even be worse than that
for older servers.

In rxrpc_input_data(), rxrpc_notify_socket() is called if the base sequence
number of the packet is immediately following the hard-ack point at the end
of the function. However, this isn't sufficient, since the recvmsg side
may have been advancing the window and then overrun the position in which
we're adding - at which point rx_hard_ack >= seq0 and no notification is
generated.
Fix this by always generating a notification at the end of the input
function.
Without this, a long call may stall, possibly indefinitely.

The subpacket scanning loop in rxrpc_receive_data() references the
subpacket count in the private data part of the sk_buff in the loop
termination condition. However, when the final subpacket is pasted into
the ring buffer, the function is no longer has a ref on the sk_buff and
should not be looking at sp->* any more. This point is actually marked in
the code when skb is cleared (but sp is not - which is an error).
Fix this by caching sp->nr_subpackets in a local variable and using that
instead.
Also clear 'sp' to catch accesses after that point.
This can show up as an oops in rxrpc_get_skb() if sp->nr_subpackets gets
trashed by the sk_buff getting freed and reused in the meantime.

There's a misplaced traceline in rxrpc_input_packet() which is looking at a

Fix this by moving the traceline after the assignment that moves the new
