In commit 5266698661401a ("tipc: let broadcast packet reception
use new link receive function") we introduced a new per-node
broadcast reception link instance. This link is created at the
moment the node itself is created. Unfortunately, the allocation
is done after the node instance has already been added to the node
lookup hash table. This creates a potential race condition, where
arriving broadcast packets are able to find and access the node
before it has been fully initialized, and before the above mentioned
link has been created. The result is occasional crashes in the function
tipc_bcast_rcv(), which is trying to access the not-yet existing link.
We fix this by deferring the addition of the node instance until after
it has been fully initialized in the function tipc_node_create().

Until now, tipc_rcv and tipc_send workqueues in server are allocated
with parameters WQ_UNBOUND & max_active = 1.
This parameters passed to this function makes it equivalent to
alloc_ordered_workqueue(). The later form is more explicit and
can inherit future ordered_workqueue changes.
In this commit we replace alloc_workqueue() with more readable
alloc_ordered_workqueue().

Until now, we create timers even for the subscription requests
with timeout = TIPC_WAIT_FOREVER.
This can be improved by avoiding timer creation when the timeout
is set to TIPC_WAIT_FOREVER.
In this commit, we introduce a check to creates timers only
when timeout != TIPC_WAIT_FOREVER.

Until now, during subscription creation the mod_time() &
tipc_subscrb_get() are called after releasing the subscriber
spin lock.
In a SMP system when performing a subscription creation, if the
subscription timeout occurs simultaneously (the timer is
scheduled to run on another CPU) then the timer thread
might decrement the subscribers refcount before the create
thread increments the refcount.
This can be simulated by creating subscription with timeout=0 and
sometimes the timeout occurs before the create request is complete.
This leads to the following message:

Until now, while creating a subscription the subscriber lock
protects only the subscribers subscription list and not the
nametable. The call to tipc_nametbl_subscribe() is outside
the lock. However, at subscription timeout and cancel both
the subscribers subscription list and the nametable are
protected by the subscriber lock.
This asymmetric locking mechanism leads to the following problem:
In a SMP system, the timer can be fire on another core before
the create request is complete.
When the timer thread calls tipc_nametbl_unsubscribe() before create
thread calls tipc_nametbl_subscribe(), we get a nullptr exception.
This can be simulated by creating subscription with timeout=0 and
sometimes the timeout occurs before the create request is complete.

Until now, the subscribers endianness for a subscription
create/cancel request is determined as:
swap = !(s->filter & (TIPC_SUB_PORTS | TIPC_SUB_SERVICE))
The checks are performed only for port/service subscriptions.
The swap calculation is incorrect if the filter in the subscription
cancellation request is set to TIPC_SUB_CANCEL (it's a malformed
cancel request, as the corresponding subscription create filter
is missing).
Thus, the check if the request is for cancellation fails and the
request is treated as a subscription create request. The
subscription creation fails as the request is illegal, which
terminates this connection.
In this commit we determine the endianness by including
TIPC_SUB_CANCEL, which will set swap correctly and the
request is processed as a cancellation request.

In 'commit 7fe8097cef5f ("tipc: fix nullpointer bug when subscribing
to events")', we terminate the connection if the subscription
creation fails.
In the same commit, the subscription creation result was based on
the value of subscription pointer (set in the function) instead of
the return code.
Unfortunately, the same function also handles subscription
cancellation request. For a subscription cancellation request,
the subscription pointer cannot be set. Thus the connection is
terminated during cancellation request.
In this commit, we move the subcription cancel check outside
of tipc_subscrp_create(). Hence,
- tipc_subscrp_create() will create a subscripton
- tipc_subscrb_rcv_cb() will subscribe or cancel a subscription.

In this commit, we split tipc_subscrp_create() into two:
1. tipc_subscrp_create() creates a subscription
2. A new function tipc_subscrp_subscribe() adds the
subscription to the subscriber subscription list,
activates the subscription timer and subscribes to
the nametable updates.
In future commits, the purpose of tipc_subscrb_rcv_cb() will
be to either subscribe or cancel a subscription.

Until now, struct tipc_subscriber has duplicate fields for
type, upper and lower (as member of struct tipc_name_seq) at:
1. as member seq in struct tipc_subscription
2. as member seq in struct tipc_subscr, which is contained
in struct tipc_event
The former structure contains the type, upper and lower
values in network byte order and the later contains the
intact copy of the request.
The struct tipc_subscription contains a field swap to
determine if request needs network byte order conversion.
Thus by using swap, we can convert the request when
required instead of duplicating it.
In this commit,
1. we remove the references to these elements as members of
struct tipc_subscription and replace them with elements
from struct tipc_subscr.
2. provide new functions to convert the user request into
network byte order.

Until now, during subscription creation we set sub->timeout by
converting the timeout request value in milliseconds to jiffies.
This is followed by setting the timeout value in the timer if
sub->timeout != TIPC_WAIT_FOREVER.
For a subscription create request with a timeout value of
TIPC_WAIT_FOREVER, msecs_to_jiffies(TIPC_WAIT_FOREVER)
returns MAX_JIFFY_OFFSET (0xfffffffe). This is not equal to
TIPC_WAIT_FOREVER (0xffffffff).
In this commit, we remove this check.

Changing certain link attributes (link tolerance and link priority)
from the TIPC management tool is supposed to automatically take
effect at both endpoints of the affected link.
Currently the media address is not instantiated for the link and is
used uninstantiated when crafting protocol messages designated for the
peer endpoint. This means that changing a link property currently
results in the property being changed on the local machine but the
protocol message designated for the peer gets lost. Resulting in
property discrepancy between the endpoints.
In this patch we resolve this by using the media address from the
link entry and using the bearer transmit function to send it. Hence,
we can now eliminate the redundant function tipc_link_prot_xmit() and
the redundant field tipc_link::media_addr.

Even if we drain receive queue thoroughly in tipc_release() after tipc
socket is removed from rhashtable, it is possible that some packets
are in flight because some CPU runs receiver and did rhashtable lookup
before we removed socket. They will achieve receive queue, but nobody
delete them at all. To avoid this leak, we register a private socket
destructor to purge receive queue, meaning releasing packets pending
on receive queue will be delayed until the last reference of tipc
socket will be released.

Since commit 5266698661401afc5e ("tipc: let broadcast packet
reception use new link receive function") the broadcast send
link state was meant to always be set to LINK_ESTABLISHED, since
we don't need this link to follow the regular link FSM rules. It
was also the intention that this state anyway shouldn't impact
the run-time working state of the link, since the latter in
reality is controlled by the number of registered peers.
We have now discovered that this assumption is not quite correct.
If the broadcast link is reset because of too many retransmissions,
its state will inadvertently go to LINK_RESETTING, and never go
back to LINK_ESTABLISHED, because the LINK_FAILURE event was not
anticipated. This will work well once, but if it happens a second
time, the reset on a link in LINK_RESETTING has has no effect, and
neither the broadcast link nor the unicast links will go down as
they should.
Furthermore, it is confusing that the management tool shows that
this link is in UP state when that obviously isn't the case.
We now ensure that this state strictly follows the true working
state of the link. The state is set to LINK_ESTABLISHED when
the number of peers is non-zero, and to LINK_RESET otherwise.

According to the node FSM a node in state SELF_UP_PEER_UP cannot
change state inside a lock context, except when a TUNNEL_PROTOCOL
(SYNCH or FAILOVER) packet arrives. However, the node's individual
links may still change state.
Since each link now is protected by its own spinlock, we finally have
the conditions in place to convert the node spinlock to an rwlock_t.
If the node state and arriving packet type are rigth, we can let the
link directly receive the packet under protection of its own spinlock
and the node lock in read mode. In all other cases we use the node
lock in write mode. This enables full concurrent execution between
parallel links during steady-state traffic situations, i.e., 99+ %
of the time.
This commit implements this change.

The file name_distr.c currently contains three functions,
named_cluster_distribute(), tipc_publ_subcscribe() and
tipc_publ_unsubscribe() that all directly access fields in
struct tipc_node. We want to eliminate such dependencies, so
we move those functions to the file node.c and rename them to
tipc_node_broadcast(), tipc_node_subscribe() and tipc_node_unsubscribe()
respectively.

The function tipc_node_check_state() contains the core logics
for handling link synchronization and failover. For this reason,
it is important to keep it as comprehensible as possible.
In this commit, we make three small cleanups.
1) If the node is in state SELF_DOWN_PEER_LEAVING and the received
packet confirms that the peer has lost contact, there will be no
further action in this function. To make this clearer, we return
from the function directly after the state change.
2) Since commit 0f8b8e28fb3241f9fd ("tipc: eliminate risk of stalled
link synchronization") only the logically first TUNNEL_PROTO/SYNCH
packet can alter the link state and set the synch point,
independently of arrival order. Hence, there is not any longer any
need to adjust the synch value in case such packets arrive in
disorder. We remove this adjustment.
3) It is the intention that any message arriving on any of the links
may trig a check for and possible termination of a node SYNCH state.
A redundant and unnoticed check for tipc_link_is_synching() obviously
beats this purpose, with the effect that only packets arriving on the
synching link may currently end the synch state. We remove this check.
This change will further shorten the synchronization period between
parallel links.

Testing of the new UDP bearer has revealed that reception of

message buffers is not prepared for the case that those may be

We now linearize all such buffers before they are delivered up to the

In order for the commit to apply cleanly to 'net' and 'stable', we do
the change in the function tipc_udp_recv() for now. Later, we will post

Correct synchronization of the broadcast link at first contact between
two nodes is dependent on the assumption that the binding table "bulk"
update passes via the same link as the initial broadcast syncronization
message, i.e., via the first link that is established.
This is not guaranteed in the current implementation. If two link
come up very close to each other in time, the "bulk" may quite well
pass via the second link, and hence void the guarantee of a correct
initial synchronization before the broadcast link is opened.
This commit makes two small changes to strengthen this guarantee.
1) We let the second established link occupy slot 1 of the
"active_links" array, while the first link will retain slot 0.
(This is in reality a cosmetic change, we could just as well keep
the current, opposite order)
2) We let the name distributor always use link selector/slot 0 when
it sends it binding table updates.
The extra traffic bias on the first link caused by this change should
be negligible, since binding table updates constitutes a very small
fraction of the total traffic.

With the recent commit series, we have established a one-way dependency
between the link aggregation (struct tipc_node) instances and their
pertaining tipc_link instances. This has enabled quite significant code
and structure simplifications.
In this commit, we eliminate the field 'owner', which points to an
instance of struct tipc_node, from struct tipc_link, and replace it with
a pointer to struct net, which is the only external reference now needed
by a link instance.

The neighbor discovery function currently uses the function
tipc_bearer_send() for transmitting packets, assuming that the
sent buffers are not consumed by the called function.
We want to change this, in order to avoid unnecessary buffer cloning
elswhere in the code.
This commit introduces a new function tipc_bearer_skb() which consumes
the sent buffers, and let the discoverer functions use this new call
instead. The discoverer does now itself perform the cloning when
that is necessary.

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.
This commit introduces these changes.

The code path for receiving broadcast packets is currently distinct
from the unicast path. This leads to unnecessary code and data
duplication, something that can be avoided with some effort.
We now introduce separate per-peer tipc_link instances for handling
broadcast packet reception. Each receive link keeps a pointer to the
common, single, broadcast link instance, and can hence handle release
and retransmission of send buffers as if they belonged to the own
instance.
Furthermore, we let each unicast link instance keep a reference to both
the pertaining broadcast receive link, and to the common send link.
This makes it possible for the unicast links to easily access data for
broadcast link synchronization, as well as for carrying acknowledges for
received broadcast packets.

Until now, we have tried to support both the newer, dedicated broadcast
synchronization mechanism along with the older, less safe, RESET_MSG/
ACTIVATE_MSG based one. The latter method has turned out to be a hazard
in a highly dynamic cluster, so we find it safer to disable it completely
when we find that the former mechanism is supported by the peer node.
For this purpose, we now introduce a new capabability bit,
TIPC_BCAST_SYNCH, to inform any peer nodes that dedicated broadcast
syncronization is supported by the present node. The new bit is conveyed
between peers in the 'capabilities' field of neighbor discovery messages.

Realizing that unicast is just a special case of broadcast, we also see
that we can go in the other direction, i.e., that modest changes to the
current unicast link can make it generic enough to support broadcast.
The following changes are introduced here:
- A new counter ("ackers") in struct tipc_link, to indicate how many
peers need to ack a packet before it can be released.
- A corresponding counter in the skb user area, to keep track of how
many peers a are left to ack before a buffer can be released.
- A new counter ("acked"), to keep persistent track of how far a peer
has acked at the moment, i.e., where in the transmission queue to
start updating buffers when the next ack arrives. This is to avoid
double acknowledgements from a peer, with inadvertent relase of
packets as a result.
- A more generic tipc_link_retrans() function, where retransmit starts
from a given sequence number, instead of the first packet in the
transmision queue. This is to minimize the number of retransmitted
packets on the broadcast media.
When the new functionality is taken into use in the next commits,
we expect it to have minimal effect on unicast mode performance.

The broadcast link instance (struct tipc_link) used for sending is
currently aggregated into struct tipc_bclink. This means that we cannot
use the regular tipc_link_create() function for initiating the link, but
do instead have to initiate numerous fields directly from the
bcast_init() function.
We want to reduce dependencies between the broadcast functionality
and the inner workings of tipc_link. In this commit, we introduce
a new function tipc_bclink_create() to link.c, and allocate the
instance of the link separately using this function.

In reality, the link implementation is already independent from
struct tipc_bearer, in that it doesn't store any reference to it.
However, we still pass on a pointer to a bearer instance in the
function tipc_link_create(), just to have it extract some
initialization information from it.
I later commits, we need to create instances of tipc_link without
having any associated struct tipc_bearer. To facilitate this, we
want to extract the initialization data already in the creator
function in node.c, before calling tipc_link_create(), and pass
this info on as individual parameters in the call.
This commit introduces this change.

The broadcast transmission link is currently instantiated when the
network subsystem is started, i.e., on order from user space via netlink.
This forces the broadcast transmission code to do unnecessary tests for
the existence of the transmission link, as well in single mode node as
in network mode.
In this commit, we do instead create the link during initialization of
the name space, and remove it when it is stopped. The fact that the
transmission link now has a guaranteed longer life cycle than any of its
potential clients paves the way for further code simplifcations
and optimizations.
