[ Upstream commit 41b7fa157ea1c8c3a575ca7f5f32034de9bee3ae ]

Fix the counting of new acks and nacks when parsing a packet - something
that is used in congestion control.

As the code stands, it merely notes if there are any nacks whereas what we
really should do is compare the previous SACK table to the new one,
assuming we get two successive ACK packets with nacks in them.  However, we
really don't want to do that if we can avoid it as the tables might not
correspond directly as one may be shifted from the other - something that
will only get harder to deal with once extended ACK tables come into full
use (with a capacity of up to 8192).

Instead, count the number of nacks shifted out of the old SACK, the number
of nacks retained in the portion still active and the number of new acks
and nacks in the new table then calculate what we need.

Note this ends up a bit of an estimate as the Rx protocol allows acks to be
withdrawn by the receiver and packets requested to be retransmitted.

[ Upstream commit f31041417bf7f4a4df8b3bfb52cb31bbe805b934 ]

In the Rx protocol, every packet generated is marked with a per-connection
monotonically increasing serial number.  This number can be referenced in
an ACK packet generated in response to an incoming packet - thereby
allowing the sender to use this for RTT determination, amongst other
things.

However, if the reference field in the ACK is zero, it doesn't refer to any
incoming packet (it could be a ping to find out if a packet got lost, for
example) - so we shouldn't generate zero serial numbers.

Fix the generation of serial numbers to retry if it comes up with a zero.

Furthermore, since the serial numbers are only ever allocated within the
I/O thread this connection is bound to, there's no need for atomics so
remove that too.

<title>rxrpc, afs: Allow afs to pin rxrpc_peer objects</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 72904d7b9bfbf2dd146254edea93958bc35bbbfe ]

Change rxrpc's API such that:

 (1) A new function, rxrpc_kernel_lookup_peer(), is provided to look up an
     rxrpc_peer record for a remote address and a corresponding function,
     rxrpc_kernel_put_peer(), is provided to dispose of it again.

 (2) When setting up a call, the rxrpc_peer object used during a call is
     now passed in rather than being set up by rxrpc_connect_call().  For
     afs, this meenat passing it to rxrpc_kernel_begin_call() rather than
     the full address (the service ID then has to be passed in as a
     separate parameter).

 (3) A new function, rxrpc_kernel_remote_addr(), is added so that afs can
     get a pointer to the transport address for display purposed, and
     another, rxrpc_kernel_remote_srx(), to gain a pointer to the full
     rxrpc address.

 (4) The function to retrieve the RTT from a call, rxrpc_kernel_get_srtt(),
     is then altered to take a peer.  This now returns the RTT or -1 if
     there are insufficient samples.

 (5) Rename rxrpc_kernel_get_peer() to rxrpc_kernel_call_get_peer().

 (6) Provide a new function, rxrpc_kernel_get_peer(), to get a ref on a
     peer the caller already has.

This allows the afs filesystem to pin the rxrpc_peer records that it is
using, allowing faster lookups and pointer comparisons rather than
comparing sockaddr_rxrpc contents.  It also makes it easier to get hold of
the RTT.  The following changes are made to afs:

 (1) The addr_list struct's addrs[] elements now hold a peer struct pointer
     and a service ID rather than a sockaddr_rxrpc.

 (2) When displaying the transport address, rxrpc_kernel_remote_addr() is
     used.

 (3) The port arg is removed from afs_alloc_addrlist() since it's always
     overridden.

 (4) afs_merge_fs_addr4() and afs_merge_fs_addr6() do peer lookup and may
     now return an error that must be handled.

 (5) afs_find_server() now takes a peer pointer to specify the address.

 (6) afs_find_server(), afs_compare_fs_alists() and afs_merge_fs_addr[46]{}
     now do peer pointer comparison rather than address comparison.

[ Upstream commit 8722014311e613244f33952354956a82fa4b0472 ]

rxrpc normally has the Don't Fragment flag set on the UDP packets it
transmits, except when it has decided that DATA packets aren't getting
through - in which case it turns it off just for the DATA transmissions.
This can be a problem, however, for RESPONSE packets that convey
authentication and crypto data from the client to the server as ticket may
be larger than can fit in the MTU.

In such a case, rxrpc gets itself into an infinite loop as the sendmsg
returns an error (EMSGSIZE), which causes rxkad_send_response() to return
-EAGAIN - and the CHALLENGE packet is put back on the Rx queue to retry,
leading to the I/O thread endlessly attempting to perform the transmission.

Fix this by disabling DF on RESPONSE packets for now.  The use of DF and
best data MTU determination needs reconsidering at some point in the
future.

Defer the generation of a PING RESPONSE ACK in response to a PING ACK until
we've parsed the PING ACK so that we pick up any changes to the packet
queue so that we can update ackinfo.

This is also applied to an ACK generated in response to an ACK with the
REQUEST_ACK flag set.

Note that whilst the problem was added in commit 248f219cb8bc, it didn't
really matter at that point because the ACK was proposed in softirq mode
and generated asynchronously later in process context, taking the latest
values at the time.  But this fix is only needed since the move to parse
incoming packets in an I/O thread rather than in softirq and generate the
ACK at point of proposal (b0346843b1076b34a0278ff601f8f287535cb064).
