[AF_RXRPC]: Provide secure RxRPC sockets for use by userspace and kernel both

Provide AF_RXRPC sockets that can be used to talk to AFS servers, or serve
answers to AFS clients.  KerberosIV security is fully supported.  The patches
and some example test programs can be found in:

	http://people.redhat.com/~dhowells/rxrpc/

This will eventually replace the old implementation of kernel-only RxRPC
currently resident in net/rxrpc/.

+
+The RxRPC protocol driver provides a reliable two-phase transport on top of UDP
+that can be used to perform RxRPC remote operations.  This is done over sockets
+of AF_RXRPC family, using sendmsg() and recvmsg() with control data to send and
+receive data, aborts and errors.

+========
+OVERVIEW
+========
+
+RxRPC is a two-layer protocol.  There is a session layer which provides
+reliable virtual connections using UDP over IPv4 (or IPv6) as the transport
+layer, but implements a real network protocol; and there's the presentation
+layer which renders structured data to binary blobs and back again using XDR
+(as does SunRPC):
+
+		+-------------+
+		| Application |
+		+-------------+
+		|     XDR     |		Presentation
+		+-------------+
+		|    RxRPC    |		Session
+		+-------------+
+		|     UDP     |		Transport
+		+-------------+
+
+
+AF_RXRPC provides:
+
+ (1) Part of an RxRPC facility for both kernel and userspace applications by
+     making the session part of it a Linux network protocol (AF_RXRPC).
+
+ (2) A two-phase protocol.  The client transmits a blob (the request) and then
+     receives a blob (the reply), and the server receives the request and then
+     transmits the reply.
+
+ (3) Retention of the reusable bits of the transport system set up for one call
+     to speed up subsequent calls.
+
+ (4) A secure protocol, using the Linux kernel's key retention facility to
+     manage security on the client end.  The server end must of necessity be
+     more active in security negotiations.
+
+AF_RXRPC does not provide XDR marshalling/presentation facilities.  That is
+left to the application.  AF_RXRPC only deals in blobs.  Even the operation ID
+is just the first four bytes of the request blob, and as such is beyond the
+kernel's interest.
+
+
+Sockets of AF_RXRPC family are:
+
+ (1) created as type SOCK_DGRAM;
+
+ (2) provided with a protocol of the type of underlying transport they're going
+     to use - currently only PF_INET is supported.
+
+
+The Andrew File System (AFS) is an example of an application that uses this and
+that has both kernel (filesystem) and userspace (utility) components.
+
+
+======================
+RXRPC PROTOCOL SUMMARY
+======================
+
+An overview of the RxRPC protocol:
+
+ (*) RxRPC sits on top of another networking protocol (UDP is the only option
+     currently), and uses this to provide network transport.  UDP ports, for
+     example, provide transport endpoints.
+
+ (*) RxRPC supports multiple virtual "connections" from any given transport
+     endpoint, thus allowing the endpoints to be shared, even to the same
+     remote endpoint.
+
+ (*) Each connection goes to a particular "service".  A connection may not go
+     to multiple services.  A service may be considered the RxRPC equivalent of
+     a port number.  AF_RXRPC permits multiple services to share an endpoint.
+
+ (*) Client-originating packets are marked, thus a transport endpoint can be
+     shared between client and server connections (connections have a
+     direction).
+
+ (*) Up to a billion connections may be supported concurrently between one
+     local transport endpoint and one service on one remote endpoint.  An RxRPC
+     connection is described by seven numbers:
+
+	Local address	}
+	Local port	} Transport (UDP) address
+	Remote address	}
+	Remote port	}
+	Direction
+	Connection ID
+	Service ID
+
+ (*) Each RxRPC operation is a "call".  A connection may make up to four
+     billion calls, but only up to four calls may be in progress on a
+     connection at any one time.
+
+ (*) Calls are two-phase and asymmetric: the client sends its request data,
+     which the service receives; then the service transmits the reply data
+     which the client receives.
+
+ (*) The data blobs are of indefinite size, the end of a phase is marked with a
+     flag in the packet.  The number of packets of data making up one blob may
+     not exceed 4 billion, however, as this would cause the sequence number to
+     wrap.
+
+ (*) The first four bytes of the request data are the service operation ID.
+
+ (*) Security is negotiated on a per-connection basis.  The connection is
+     initiated by the first data packet on it arriving.  If security is
+     requested, the server then issues a "challenge" and then the client
+     replies with a "response".  If the response is successful, the security is
+     set for the lifetime of that connection, and all subsequent calls made
+     upon it use that same security.  In the event that the server lets a
+     connection lapse before the client, the security will be renegotiated if
+     the client uses the connection again.
+
+ (*) Calls use ACK packets to handle reliability.  Data packets are also
+     explicitly sequenced per call.
+
+ (*) There are two types of positive acknowledgement: hard-ACKs and soft-ACKs.
+     A hard-ACK indicates to the far side that all the data received to a point
+     has been received and processed; a soft-ACK indicates that the data has
+     been received but may yet be discarded and re-requested.  The sender may
+     not discard any transmittable packets until they've been hard-ACK'd.
+
+ (*) Reception of a reply data packet implicitly hard-ACK's all the data
+     packets that make up the request.
+
+ (*) An call is complete when the request has been sent, the reply has been
+     received and the final hard-ACK on the last packet of the reply has
+     reached the server.
+
+ (*) An call may be aborted by either end at any time up to its completion.
+
+
+=====================
+AF_RXRPC DRIVER MODEL
+=====================
+
+About the AF_RXRPC driver:
+
+ (*) The AF_RXRPC protocol transparently uses internal sockets of the transport
+     protocol to represent transport endpoints.
+
+ (*) AF_RXRPC sockets map onto RxRPC connection bundles.  Actual RxRPC
+     connections are handled transparently.  One client socket may be used to
+     make multiple simultaneous calls to the same service.  One server socket
+     may handle calls from many clients.
+
+ (*) Additional parallel client connections will be initiated to support extra
+     concurrent calls, up to a tunable limit.
+
+ (*) Each connection is retained for a certain amount of time [tunable] after
+     the last call currently using it has completed in case a new call is made
+     that could reuse it.
+
+ (*) Each internal UDP socket is retained [tunable] for a certain amount of
+     time [tunable] after the last connection using it discarded, in case a new
+     connection is made that could use it.
+
+ (*) A client-side connection is only shared between calls if they have have
+     the same key struct describing their security (and assuming the calls
+     would otherwise share the connection).  Non-secured calls would also be
+     able to share connections with each other.
+
+ (*) A server-side connection is shared if the client says it is.
+
+ (*) ACK'ing is handled by the protocol driver automatically, including ping
+     replying.
+
+ (*) SO_KEEPALIVE automatically pings the other side to keep the connection
+     alive [TODO].
+
+ (*) If an ICMP error is received, all calls affected by that error will be
+     aborted with an appropriate network error passed through recvmsg().
+
+
+Interaction with the user of the RxRPC socket:
+
+ (*) A socket is made into a server socket by binding an address with a
+     non-zero service ID.
+
+ (*) In the client, sending a request is achieved with one or more sendmsgs,
+     followed by the reply being received with one or more recvmsgs.
+
+ (*) The first sendmsg for a request to be sent from a client contains a tag to
+     be used in all other sendmsgs or recvmsgs associated with that call.  The
+     tag is carried in the control data.
+
+ (*) connect() is used to supply a default destination address for a client
+     socket.  This may be overridden by supplying an alternate address to the
+     first sendmsg() of a call (struct msghdr::msg_name).
+
+ (*) If connect() is called on an unbound client, a random local port will
+     bound before the operation takes place.
+
+ (*) A server socket may also be used to make client calls.  To do this, the
+     first sendmsg() of the call must specify the target address.  The server's
+     transport endpoint is used to send the packets.
+
+ (*) Once the application has received the last message associated with a call,
+     the tag is guaranteed not to be seen again, and so it can be used to pin
+     client resources.  A new call can then be initiated with the same tag
+     without fear of interference.
+
+ (*) In the server, a request is received with one or more recvmsgs, then the
+     the reply is transmitted with one or more sendmsgs, and then the final ACK
+     is received with a last recvmsg.
+
+ (*) When sending data for a call, sendmsg is given MSG_MORE if there's more
+     data to come on that call.
+
+ (*) When receiving data for a call, recvmsg flags MSG_MORE if there's more
+     data to come for that call.
+
+ (*) When receiving data or messages for a call, MSG_EOR is flagged by recvmsg
+     to indicate the terminal message for that call.
+
+ (*) A call may be aborted by adding an abort control message to the control
+     data.  Issuing an abort terminates the kernel's use of that call's tag.
+     Any messages waiting in the receive queue for that call will be discarded.
+
+ (*) Aborts, busy notifications and challenge packets are delivered by recvmsg,
+     and control data messages will be set to indicate the context.  Receiving
+     an abort or a busy message terminates the kernel's use of that call's tag.
+
+ (*) The control data part of the msghdr struct is used for a number of things:
+
+     (*) The tag of the intended or affected call.
+
+     (*) Sending or receiving errors, aborts and busy notifications.
+
+     (*) Notifications of incoming calls.
+
+     (*) Sending debug requests and receiving debug replies [TODO].
+
+ (*) When the kernel has received and set up an incoming call, it sends a
+     message to server application to let it know there's a new call awaiting
+     its acceptance [recvmsg reports a special control message].  The server
+     application then uses sendmsg to assign a tag to the new call.  Once that
+     is done, the first part of the request data will be delivered by recvmsg.
+
+ (*) The server application has to provide the server socket with a keyring of
+     secret keys corresponding to the security types it permits.  When a secure
+     connection is being set up, the kernel looks up the appropriate secret key
+     in the keyring and then sends a challenge packet to the client and
+     receives a response packet.  The kernel then checks the authorisation of
+     the packet and either aborts the connection or sets up the security.
+
+ (*) The name of the key a client will use to secure its communications is
+     nominated by a socket option.
+
+
+Notes on recvmsg:
+
+ (*) If there's a sequence of data messages belonging to a particular call on
+     the receive queue, then recvmsg will keep working through them until:
+
+     (a) it meets the end of that call's received data,
+
+     (b) it meets a non-data message,
+
+     (c) it meets a message belonging to a different call, or
+
+     (d) it fills the user buffer.
+
+     If recvmsg is called in blocking mode, it will keep sleeping, awaiting the
+     reception of further data, until one of the above four conditions is met.
+
+ (2) MSG_PEEK operates similarly, but will return immediately if it has put any
+     data in the buffer rather than sleeping until it can fill the buffer.
+
+ (3) If a data message is only partially consumed in filling a user buffer,
+     then the remainder of that message will be left on the front of the queue
+     for the next taker.  MSG_TRUNC will never be flagged.
+
+ (4) If there is more data to be had on a call (it hasn't copied the last byte
+     of the last data message in that phase yet), then MSG_MORE will be
+     flagged.
+
+
+================
+CONTROL MESSAGES
+================
+
+AF_RXRPC makes use of control messages in sendmsg() and recvmsg() to multiplex
+calls, to invoke certain actions and to report certain conditions.  These are:
+
+	MESSAGE ID		SRT DATA	MEANING
+	=======================	=== ===========	===============================
+	RXRPC_USER_CALL_ID	sr- User ID	App's call specifier
+	RXRPC_ABORT		srt Abort code	Abort code to issue/received
+	RXRPC_ACK		-rt n/a		Final ACK received
+	RXRPC_NET_ERROR		-rt error num	Network error on call
+	RXRPC_BUSY		-rt n/a		Call rejected (server busy)
+	RXRPC_LOCAL_ERROR	-rt error num	Local error encountered
+	RXRPC_NEW_CALL		-r- n/a		New call received
+	RXRPC_ACCEPT		s-- n/a		Accept new call
+
+	(SRT = usable in Sendmsg / delivered by Recvmsg / Terminal message)
+
+ (*) RXRPC_USER_CALL_ID
+
+     This is used to indicate the application's call ID.  It's an unsigned long
+     that the app specifies in the client by attaching it to the first data
+     message or in the server by passing it in association with an RXRPC_ACCEPT
+     message.  recvmsg() passes it in conjunction with all messages except
+     those of the RXRPC_NEW_CALL message.
+
+ (*) RXRPC_ABORT
+
+     This is can be used by an application to abort a call by passing it to
+     sendmsg, or it can be delivered by recvmsg to indicate a remote abort was
+     received.  Either way, it must be associated with an RXRPC_USER_CALL_ID to
+     specify the call affected.  If an abort is being sent, then error EBADSLT
+     will be returned if there is no call with that user ID.
+
+ (*) RXRPC_ACK
+
+     This is delivered to a server application to indicate that the final ACK
+     of a call was received from the client.  It will be associated with an
+     RXRPC_USER_CALL_ID to indicate the call that's now complete.
+
+ (*) RXRPC_NET_ERROR
+
+     This is delivered to an application to indicate that an ICMP error message
+     was encountered in the process of trying to talk to the peer.  An
+     errno-class integer value will be included in the control message data
+     indicating the problem, and an RXRPC_USER_CALL_ID will indicate the call
+     affected.
+
+ (*) RXRPC_BUSY
+
+     This is delivered to a client application to indicate that a call was
+     rejected by the server due to the server being busy.  It will be
+     associated with an RXRPC_USER_CALL_ID to indicate the rejected call.
+
+ (*) RXRPC_LOCAL_ERROR
+
+     This is delivered to an application to indicate that a local error was
+     encountered and that a call has been aborted because of it.  An
+     errno-class integer value will be included in the control message data
+     indicating the problem, and an RXRPC_USER_CALL_ID will indicate the call
+     affected.
+
+ (*) RXRPC_NEW_CALL
+
+     This is delivered to indicate to a server application that a new call has
+     arrived and is awaiting acceptance.  No user ID is associated with this,
+     as a user ID must subsequently be assigned by doing an RXRPC_ACCEPT.
+
+ (*) RXRPC_ACCEPT
+
+     This is used by a server application to attempt to accept a call and
+     assign it a user ID.  It should be associated with an RXRPC_USER_CALL_ID
+     to indicate the user ID to be assigned.  If there is no call to be
+     accepted (it may have timed out, been aborted, etc.), then sendmsg will
+     return error ENODATA.  If the user ID is already in use by another call,
+     then error EBADSLT will be returned.
+
+
+==============
+SOCKET OPTIONS
+==============
+
+AF_RXRPC sockets support a few socket options at the SOL_RXRPC level:
+
+ (*) RXRPC_SECURITY_KEY
+
+     This is used to specify the description of the key to be used.  The key is
+     extracted from the calling process's keyrings with request_key() and
+     should be of "rxrpc" type.
+
+     The optval pointer points to the description string, and optlen indicates
+     how long the string is, without the NUL terminator.
+
+ (*) RXRPC_SECURITY_KEYRING
+
+     Similar to above but specifies a keyring of server secret keys to use (key
+     type "keyring").  See the "Security" section.
+
+ (*) RXRPC_EXCLUSIVE_CONNECTION
+
+     This is used to request that new connections should be used for each call
+     made subsequently on this socket.  optval should be NULL and optlen 0.
+
+ (*) RXRPC_MIN_SECURITY_LEVEL
+
+     This is used to specify the minimum security level required for calls on
+     this socket.  optval must point to an int containing one of the following
+     values:
+
+     (a) RXRPC_SECURITY_PLAIN
+
+	 Encrypted checksum only.
+
+     (b) RXRPC_SECURITY_AUTH
+
+	 Encrypted checksum plus packet padded and first eight bytes of packet
+	 encrypted - which includes the actual packet length.
+
+     (c) RXRPC_SECURITY_ENCRYPTED
+
+	 Encrypted checksum plus entire packet padded and encrypted, including
+	 actual packet length.
+
+
+========
+SECURITY
+========
+
+Currently, only the kerberos 4 equivalent protocol has been implemented
+(security index 2 - rxkad).  This requires the rxkad module to be loaded and,
+on the client, tickets of the appropriate type to be obtained from the AFS
+kaserver or the kerberos server and installed as "rxrpc" type keys.  This is
+normally done using the klog program.  An example simple klog program can be
+found at:
+
+	http://people.redhat.com/~dhowells/rxrpc/klog.c
+
+The payload provided to add_key() on the client should be of the following
+form:
+
+	struct rxrpc_key_sec2_v1 {
+		uint16_t	security_index;	/* 2 */
+		uint16_t	ticket_length;	/* length of ticket[] */
+		uint32_t	expiry;		/* time at which expires */
+		uint8_t		kvno;		/* key version number */
+		uint8_t		__pad[3];
+		uint8_t		session_key[8];	/* DES session key */
+		uint8_t		ticket[0];	/* the encrypted ticket */
+	};
+
+Where the ticket blob is just appended to the above structure.
+
+
+For the server, keys of type "rxrpc_s" must be made available to the server.
+They have a description of "<serviceID>:<securityIndex>" (eg: "52:2" for an
+rxkad key for the AFS VL service).  When such a key is created, it should be
+given the server's secret key as the instantiation data (see the example
+below).
+
+	add_key("rxrpc_s", "52:2", secret_key, 8, keyring);
+
+A keyring is passed to the server socket by naming it in a sockopt.  The server
+socket then looks the server secret keys up in this keyring when secure
+incoming connections are made.  This can be seen in an example program that can
+be found at:
+
+	http://people.redhat.com/~dhowells/rxrpc/listen.c
+
+
+====================
+EXAMPLE CLIENT USAGE
+====================
+
+A client would issue an operation by:
+
+ (1) An RxRPC socket is set up by:
+
+	client = socket(AF_RXRPC, SOCK_DGRAM, PF_INET);
+
+     Where the third parameter indicates the protocol family of the transport
+     socket used - usually IPv4 but it can also be IPv6 [TODO].
+
+ (2) A local address can optionally be bound:
+
+	struct sockaddr_rxrpc srx = {
+		.srx_family	= AF_RXRPC,
+		.srx_service	= 0,  /* we're a client */
+		.transport_type	= SOCK_DGRAM,	/* type of transport socket */
+		.transport.sin_family	= AF_INET,
+		.transport.sin_port	= htons(7000), /* AFS callback */
+		.transport.sin_address	= 0,  /* all local interfaces */
+	};
+	bind(client, &srx, sizeof(srx));
+
+     This specifies the local UDP port to be used.  If not given, a random
+     non-privileged port will be used.  A UDP port may be shared between
+     several unrelated RxRPC sockets.  Security is handled on a basis of
+     per-RxRPC virtual connection.
+
+ (3) The security is set:
+
+	const char *key = "AFS:cambridge.redhat.com";
+	setsockopt(client, SOL_RXRPC, RXRPC_SECURITY_KEY, key, strlen(key));
+
+     This issues a request_key() to get the key representing the security
+     context.  The minimum security level can be set:
+
+	unsigned int sec = RXRPC_SECURITY_ENCRYPTED;
+	setsockopt(client, SOL_RXRPC, RXRPC_MIN_SECURITY_LEVEL,
+		   &sec, sizeof(sec));
+
+ (4) The server to be contacted can then be specified (alternatively this can
+     be done through sendmsg):
+
+	struct sockaddr_rxrpc srx = {
+		.srx_family	= AF_RXRPC,
+		.srx_service	= VL_SERVICE_ID,
+		.transport_type	= SOCK_DGRAM,	/* type of transport socket */
+		.transport.sin_family	= AF_INET,
+		.transport.sin_port	= htons(7005), /* AFS volume manager */
+		.transport.sin_address	= ...,
+	};
+	connect(client, &srx, sizeof(srx));
+
+ (5) The request data should then be posted to the server socket using a series
+     of sendmsg() calls, each with the following control message attached:
+
+	RXRPC_USER_CALL_ID	- specifies the user ID for this call
+
+     MSG_MORE should be set in msghdr::msg_flags on all but the last part of
+     the request.  Multiple requests may be made simultaneously.
+
+     If a call is intended to go to a destination other then the default
+     specified through connect(), then msghdr::msg_name should be set on the
+     first request message of that call.
+
+ (6) The reply data will then be posted to the server socket for recvmsg() to
+     pick up.  MSG_MORE will be flagged by recvmsg() if there's more reply data
+     for a particular call to be read.  MSG_EOR will be set on the terminal
+     read for a call.
+
+     All data will be delivered with the following control message attached:
+
+	RXRPC_USER_CALL_ID	- specifies the user ID for this call
+
+     If an abort or error occurred, this will be returned in the control data
+     buffer instead, and MSG_EOR will be flagged to indicate the end of that
+     call.
+
+
+====================
+EXAMPLE SERVER USAGE
+====================
+
+A server would be set up to accept operations in the following manner:
+
+ (1) An RxRPC socket is created by:
+
+	server = socket(AF_RXRPC, SOCK_DGRAM, PF_INET);
+
+     Where the third parameter indicates the address type of the transport
+     socket used - usually IPv4.
+
+ (2) Security is set up if desired by giving the socket a keyring with server
+     secret keys in it:
+
+	keyring = add_key("keyring", "AFSkeys", NULL, 0,
+			  KEY_SPEC_PROCESS_KEYRING);
+
+	const char secret_key[8] = {
+		0xa7, 0x83, 0x8a, 0xcb, 0xc7, 0x83, 0xec, 0x94 };
+	add_key("rxrpc_s", "52:2", secret_key, 8, keyring);
+
+	setsockopt(server, SOL_RXRPC, RXRPC_SECURITY_KEYRING, "AFSkeys", 7);
+
+     The keyring can be manipulated after it has been given to the socket. This
+     permits the server to add more keys, replace keys, etc. whilst it is live.
+
+ (2) A local address must then be bound:
+
+	struct sockaddr_rxrpc srx = {
+		.srx_family	= AF_RXRPC,
+		.srx_service	= VL_SERVICE_ID, /* RxRPC service ID */
+		.transport_type	= SOCK_DGRAM,	/* type of transport socket */
+		.transport.sin_family	= AF_INET,
+		.transport.sin_port	= htons(7000), /* AFS callback */
+		.transport.sin_address	= 0,  /* all local interfaces */
+	};
+	bind(server, &srx, sizeof(srx));
+
+ (3) The server is then set to listen out for incoming calls:
+
+	listen(server, 100);
+
+ (4) The kernel notifies the server of pending incoming connections by sending
+     it a message for each.  This is received with recvmsg() on the server
+     socket.  It has no data, and has a single dataless control message
+     attached:
+
+	RXRPC_NEW_CALL
+
+     The address that can be passed back by recvmsg() at this point should be
+     ignored since the call for which the message was posted may have gone by
+     the time it is accepted - in which case the first call still on the queue
+     will be accepted.
+
+ (5) The server then accepts the new call by issuing a sendmsg() with two
+     pieces of control data and no actual data:
+
+	RXRPC_ACCEPT		- indicate connection acceptance
+	RXRPC_USER_CALL_ID	- specify user ID for this call
+
+ (6) The first request data packet will then be posted to the server socket for
+     recvmsg() to pick up.  At that point, the RxRPC address for the call can
+     be read from the address fields in the msghdr struct.
+
+     Subsequent request data will be posted to the server socket for recvmsg()
+     to collect as it arrives.  All but the last piece of the request data will
+     be delivered with MSG_MORE flagged.
+
+     All data will be delivered with the following control message attached:
+
+	RXRPC_USER_CALL_ID	- specifies the user ID for this call
+
+ (8) The reply data should then be posted to the server socket using a series
+     of sendmsg() calls, each with the following control messages attached:
+
+	RXRPC_USER_CALL_ID	- specifies the user ID for this call
+
+     MSG_MORE should be set in msghdr::msg_flags on all but the last message
+     for a particular call.
+
+ (9) The final ACK from the client will be posted for retrieval by recvmsg()
+     when it is received.  It will take the form of a dataless message with two
+     control messages attached:
+
+	RXRPC_USER_CALL_ID	- specifies the user ID for this call
+	RXRPC_ACK		- indicates final ACK (no data)
+
+     MSG_EOR will be flagged to indicate that this is the final message for
+     this call.
+
+(10) Up to the point the final packet of reply data is sent, the call can be
+     aborted by calling sendmsg() with a dataless message with the following
+     control messages attached:
+
+	RXRPC_USER_CALL_ID	- specifies the user ID for this call
+	RXRPC_ABORT		- indicates abort code (4 byte data)
+
+     Any packets waiting in the socket's receive queue will be discarded if
+     this is issued.
+
+Note that all the communications for a particular service take place through
+the one server socket, using control messages on sendmsg() and recvmsg() to
+determine the call affected.
