tipc: fix deadlock during socket release

2013-12-30T03:24:07+00:00

A deadlock might occur if name table is withdrawn in socket release
routine, and while packets are still being received from bearer.

       CPU0                       CPU1
T0:   recv_msg()               release()
T1:   tipc_recv_msg()          tipc_withdraw()
T2:   [grab node lock]         [grab port lock]
T3:   tipc_link_wakeup_ports() tipc_nametbl_withdraw()
T4:   [grab port lock]*        named_cluster_distribute()
T5:   wakeupdispatch()         tipc_link_send()
T6:                            [grab node lock]*

The opposite order of holding port lock and node lock on above two
different paths may result in a deadlock. If socket lock instead of
port lock is used to protect port instance in tipc_withdraw(), the
reverse order of holding port lock and node lock will be eliminated,
as a result, the deadlock is killed as well.

tipc: remove unnecessary variables and conditions

2013-12-16T17:48:35+00:00

We remove a number of unnecessary variables and branches
in TIPC. This patch is cosmetic and does not change the
operation of TIPC in any way.

tipc: remove iovec length parameter from all sending functions

2013-10-18T17:20:42+00:00

tipc_msg_build() now copies message data from iovec to skb_buff
using memcpy_fromiovecend(), which doesn't need to be passed the
iovec length to perform the copying.

So we remove the parameter indicating iovec length in all
functions where TIPC messages are built and sent.

tipc: cosmetic realignment of function arguments

2013-06-17T22:53:01+00:00

No runtime code changes here.  Just a realign of the function
arguments to start where the 1st one was, and fit as many args
as can be put in an 80 char line.

tipc: save sock structure pointer instead of void pointer to tipc_port

Directly save sock structure pointer instead of void pointer to avoid

tipc: rename tipc_createport_raw to tipc_createport

2013-06-17T22:53:01+00:00

After the removal of the native API, there is now only one way to
to create a TIPC port instance -- the function tipc_createport_raw().
We make it more readable by renaming it to tipc_createport().

tipc: remove user_port instance from tipc_port structure

2013-06-17T22:53:00+00:00

After the native API has been completely removed, the 'user_port'
field in struct tipc_port becomes unused, and can be removed.
As a consequence, the "usrmem" argument in tipc_msg_build() is no
longer needed, and so we remove that one too.

tipc: delete code orphaned by new server infrastructure

2013-06-17T22:53:00+00:00

Having completed the conversion of the topology server and
configuration server to use the new server infrastructure,
the following functions become unused, and can be deleted:

   - tipc_createport()
   - port_wakeup_sh()
   - port_dispatcher()
   - port_dispatcher_sigh()
   - tipc_send_buf_fast()
   - tipc_send_buf2port

Additionally, the following variables become orphaned,
and can be deleted:

   - tipc_msg_err_event
   - tipc_named_msg_err_event
   - tipc_conn_shutdown_event
   - tipc_msg_event
   - tipc_named_msg_event
   - tipc_conn_msg_event
   - tipc_continue_event
   - msg_queue_head
   - msg_queue_tail
   - queue_lock

Deletion is done here in a separate commit in order to allow
the actual conversion changes to be more easily viewed.

tipc: standardize across connect/disconnect function naming

2012-12-07T22:23:19+00:00

Currently we have tipc_disconnect and tipc_disconnect_port.  It is
not clear from the names alone, what they do or how they differ.
It turns out that tipc_disconnect just deals with the port locking
and then calls tipc_disconnect_port which does all the work.

If we rename as follows: tipc_disconnect_port --> __tipc_disconnect
then we will be following typical linux convention, where:

   __tipc_disconnect: "raw" function that does all the work.

   tipc_disconnect: wrapper that deals with locking and then calls
		    the real core __tipc_disconnect function

With this, the difference is immediately evident, and locking
violations are more apt to be spotted by chance while working on,
or even just while reading the code.

On the connect side of things, we currently only have the single
"tipc_connect2port" function.  It does both the locking at enter/exit,
and the core of the work.  Pending changes will make it desireable to
have the connect be a two part locking wrapper + worker function,
just like the disconnect is already.

Here, we make the connect look just like the updated disconnect case,
for the above reason, and for consistency.  In the process, we also
get rid of the "2port" suffix that was on the original name, since
it adds no descriptive value.

On close examination, one might notice that the above connect
changes implicitly move the call to tipc_link_get_max_pkt() to be
within the scope of tipc_port_lock() protected region; when it was
not previously.  We don't see any issues with this, and it is in
keeping with __tipc_connect doing the work and tipc_connect just
handling the locking.
