[ Upstream commit f0295678ad304195927829b1dbf06553aa2187b0 ]

Fix rxrpc to use connection-level aborts for things that affect the whole
connection, such as the service ID not matching a local service.

[ Upstream commit e9c0b96ec0a34fcacdf9365713578d83cecac34c ]

Under some circumstances, such as when a server socket is closing, ABORT
packets will be generated in response to incoming packets.  Unfortunately,
this also may include generating aborts in response to incoming aborts -
which may cause a cycle.  It appears this may be made possible by giving
the client a multicast address.

Fix this such that rxrpc_reject_packet() will refuse to generate aborts in
response to aborts.

[ Upstream commit 2fd895842d49c23137ae48252dd211e5d6d8a3ed ]

When a call is released, rxrpc takes the spinlock and removes it from
-&gt;recvmsg_q in an effort to prevent racing recvmsg() invocations from
seeing the same call.  Now, rxrpc_recvmsg() only takes the spinlock when
actually removing a call from the queue; it doesn't, however, take it in
the lead up to that when it checks to see if the queue is empty.  It *does*
hold the socket lock, which prevents a recvmsg/recvmsg race - but this
doesn't prevent sendmsg from ending the call because sendmsg() drops the
socket lock and relies on the call-&gt;user_mutex.

Fix this by firstly removing the bit in rxrpc_release_call() that dequeues
the released call and, instead, rely on recvmsg() to simply discard
released calls (done in a preceding fix).

Secondly, rxrpc_notify_socket() is abandoned if the call is already marked
as released rather than trying to be clever by setting both pointers in
call-&gt;recvmsg_link to NULL to trick list_empty().  This isn't perfect and
can still race, resulting in a released call on the queue, but recvmsg()
will now clean that up.

[ Upstream commit 962fb1f651c2cf2083e0c3ef53ba69e3b96d3fbc ]

If a call receives an event (such as incoming data), the call gets placed
on the socket's queue and a thread in recvmsg can be awakened to go and
process it.  Once the thread has picked up the call off of the queue,
further events will cause it to be requeued, and once the socket lock is
dropped (recvmsg uses call-&gt;user_mutex to allow the socket to be used in
parallel), a second thread can come in and its recvmsg can pop the call off
the socket queue again.

In such a case, the first thread will be receiving stuff from the call and
the second thread will be blocked on call-&gt;user_mutex.  The first thread
can, at this point, process both the event that it picked call for and the
event that the second thread picked the call for and may see the call
terminate - in which case the call will be "released", decoupling the call
from the user call ID assigned to it (RXRPC_USER_CALL_ID in the control
message).

The first thread will return okay, but then the second thread will wake up
holding the user_mutex and, if it sees that the call has been released by
the first thread, it will BUG thusly:

	kernel BUG at net/rxrpc/recvmsg.c:474!

Fix this by just dequeuing the call and ignoring it if it is seen to be
already released.  We can't tell userspace about it anyway as the user call
ID has become stale.

[ Upstream commit e4d2878369d590bf8455e3678a644e503172eafa ]

The rxrpc_assess_MTU_size() function calls down into the IP layer to find
out the MTU size for a route.  When accepting an incoming call, this is
called from rxrpc_new_incoming_call() which holds interrupts disabled
across the code that calls down to it.  Unfortunately, the IP layer uses
local_bh_enable() which, config dependent, throws a warning if IRQs are
enabled:

WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 5544 at kernel/softirq.c:387 __local_bh_enable_ip+0x43/0xd0

Fix this by moving the call to rxrpc_assess_MTU_size() out of
rxrpc_init_peer() and further up the stack where it can be done without
interrupts disabled.

It shouldn't be a problem for rxrpc_new_incoming_call() to do it after the
locks are dropped as pmtud is going to be performed by the I/O thread - and
we're in the I/O thread at this point.

commit 880a88f318cf1d2a0f4c0a7ff7b07e2062b434a4 upstream.

If an AF_RXRPC service socket is opened and bound, but calls are
preallocated, then rxrpc_alloc_incoming_call() will oops because the
rxrpc_backlog struct doesn't get allocated until the first preallocation is
made.

Fix this by returning NULL from rxrpc_alloc_incoming_call() if there is no
backlog struct.  This will cause the incoming call to be aborted.

[ Upstream commit 69e4186773c6445b258fb45b6e1df18df831ec45 ]

When userspace is using AF_RXRPC to provide a server, it has to preallocate
incoming calls and assign to them call IDs that will be used to thread
related recvmsg() and sendmsg() together.  The preallocated call IDs will
automatically be attached to calls as they come in until the pool is empty.

To the kernel, the call IDs are just arbitrary numbers, but userspace can
use the call ID to hold a pointer to prepared structs.  In any case, the
user isn't permitted to create two calls with the same call ID (call IDs
become available again when the call ends) and EBADSLT should result from
sendmsg() if an attempt is made to preallocate a call with an in-use call
ID.

However, the cleanup in the error handling will trigger both assertions in
rxrpc_cleanup_call() because the call isn't marked complete and isn't
marked as having been released.

Fix this by setting the call state in rxrpc_service_prealloc_one() and then
marking it as being released before calling the cleanup function.

Make use of the per-peer application data that rxrpc now allows the
application to store on the rxrpc_peer struct to hold a back pointer to the
afs_server record that peer represents an endpoint for.

Then, when a call comes in to the AFS cache manager, this can be used to
map it to the correct server record rather than having to use a
UUID-to-server mapping table and having to do an additional lookup.

private data on the rxrpc_peer structs for later retrieval via the call
object.

This will allow afs to store a pointer to the afs_server object on the
rxrpc_peer struct, thereby obviating the need for afs to keep lookup tables
by which it can associate an incoming call with server that transmitted it.
