7559c7a28f SUNRPC: Make address format buffers more generic
For now we will assume that all transports will use the address format
buffers in the rpc_xprt struct to store their addresses.  Change
rpc_peer2str() to be a generic routine to handle this, and get rid of the
print_address() op in the rpc_xprt_ops vector.

d922a84a8b rpcgss: krb5: sanity check sealalg value in the downcall
The sealalg is checked in several places, giving the impression it could be
either SEAL_ALG_NONE or SEAL_ALG_DES.  But in fact SEAL_ALG_NONE seems to
be sufficient only for making mic's, and all the contexts we get must be
capable of wrapping as well.  So the sealalg must be SEAL_ALG_DES.  As
with signalg, just check for the right value on the downcall and ignore it
otherwise.  Similarly, tighten expectations for the sealalg on incoming
tokens, in case we do support other values eventually.

We designed the krb5 context import without completely understanding the
context.  Now it's clear that there are a number of fields that we ignore,
or that we depend on having one single value.

something else we could support here eventually), but ignore it otherwise.

adeb8133dd rpc: spkm3 update
This updates the spkm3 code to bring it up to date with our current
understanding of the spkm3 spec.

In doing so, we're changing the downcall format used by gssd in the spkm3 case,
which will cause an incompatilibity with old userland spkm3 support.  Since the
old code a) didn't implement the protocol correctly, and b) was never
distributed except in the form of some experimental patches from the citi web
site, we're assuming this is OK.

We do detect the old downcall format and print warning (and fail).  We also
include a version number in the new downcall format, to be used in the
future in case any further change is required.

In some more detail:

	- fix integrity support
	- removed dependency on NIDs. instead OIDs are used
	- known OID values for algorithms added.
	- fixed some context fields and types

cc4dc59e55 Subject: Re: [PATCH] Fix SUNRPC wakeup/execute race condition
The sunrpc scheduler contains a race condition that can let an RPC
task end up being neither running nor on any wait queue. The race takes
place between rpc_make_runnable (called from rpc_wake_up_task) and
__rpc_execute under the following condition:

First __rpc_execute calls tk_action which puts the task on some wait
queue. The task is dequeued by another process before __rpc_execute
continues its execution. While executing rpc_make_runnable exactly after
setting the task `running' bit and before clearing the `queued' bit
__rpc_execute picks up execution, clears `running' and subsequently
both functions fall through, both under the false assumption somebody
else took the job.

Swapping rpc_test_and_set_running with rpc_clear_queued in
rpc_make_runnable fixes that hole. This introduces another possible
race condition that can be handled by checking for `queued' after
setting the `running' bit.

Bug noticed on a 4-way x86_64 system under XEN with an NFSv4 server
on the same physical machine, apparently one of the few ways to hit
this race condition at all.

It has the advantage of better scalability: O(log2(N)) instead of O(N).

44158306d7 [DCCP] ccid3: Deprecate TFRC_SMALLEST_P
This patch deprecates the existing use of an arbitrary value TFRC_SMALLEST_P
 for low-threshold values of p. This avoids masking low-resolution errors.
 Instead, the code now checks against real boundaries (implemented by preceding
 patch) and provides warnings whenever a real value falls below the threshold.

 If such messages are observed, it is a better solution to take this as an
 indication that the lookup table needs to be re-engineered.

Changelog:
----------
 This patch
   * makes handling all TFRC resolution errors local to the TFRC library

   * removes unnecessary test whether X_calc is 'infinity' due to p==0 -- this
     condition is already caught by tfrc_calc_x()

   * removes setting ccid3hctx_p = TFRC_SMALLEST_P in ccid3_hc_tx_packet_recv
     since this is now done by the TFRC library

   * updates BUG_ON test in ccid3_hc_tx_no_feedback_timer to take into account
     that p now is either 0 (and then X_calc is irrelevant), or it is > 0; since
     the handling of TFRC_SMALLEST_P is now taken care of in the tfrc library

Justification:
--------------
 The TFRC code uses a lookup table which has a bounded resolution.
 The lowest possible value of the loss event rate `p' which can be
 resolved is currently 0.0001.  Substituting this lower threshold for
 p when p is less than 0.0001 results in a huge, exponentially-growing
 error.  The error can be computed by the following formula:

    (f(0.0001) - f(p))/f(p) * 100      for p < 0.0001

 Currently the solution is to use an (arbitrary) value
     TFRC_SMALLEST_P  =   40 * 1E-6   =   0.00004
 and to consider all values below this value as `virtually zero'.  Due to
 the exponentially growing resolution error, this is not a good idea, since
 it hides the fact that the table can not resolve practically occurring cases.
 Already at p == TFRC_SMALLEST_P, the error is as high as 58.19%!

8d0086adac [DCCP] tfrc: Add protection against invalid parameters to TFRC routines
1) For the forward X_calc lookup, it
    * protects effectively against RTT=0 (this case is possible), by
      returning the maximal lookup value instead of just setting it to 1
    * reformulates the array-bounds exceeded condition: this only happens
      if p is greater than 1E6 (due to the scaling)
    * the case of negative indices can now with certainty be excluded,
      since documentation shows that the formulas are within bounds
    * additional protection against p = 0 (would give divide-by-zero)

 2) For the reverse lookup, it warns against
    * protects against exceeding array bounds
    * now returns 0 if f(p) = 0, due to function definition
    * warns about minimal resolution error and returns the smallest table
      value instead of p=0 [this would mask congestion conditions]

90fb0e60dd [DCCP] tfrc: Fix small error in reverse lookup of p for given f(p)
This fixes the following small error in tfrc_calc_x_reverse_lookup.

 1) The table is generated by the following equations:
	lookup[index][0] = g((index+1) * 1000000/TFRC_CALC_X_ARRSIZE);
	lookup[index][1] = g((index+1) * TFRC_CALC_X_SPLIT/TFRC_CALC_X_ARRSIZE);
    where g(q) is 1E6 * f(q/1E6)

 2) The reverse lookup assigns an entry in lookup[index][small]

 3) This index needs to match the above, i.e.
    * if small=0 then

      		p  = (index + 1) * 1000000/TFRC_CALC_X_ARRSIZE

    * if small=1 then

		p = (index+1) * TFRC_CALC_X_SPLIT/TFRC_CALC_X_ARRSIZE

These are exactly the changes that the patch makes; previously the code did
not conform to the way the lookup table was generated (this difference resulted
in a mean error of about 1.12%).

(the receiver of a DCCP half connection).

Incoming packets are both directed to

The message gets printed since on a server the client half is currently not
sending data packets.
This is resolved for the moment by checking the DCCP-role first. In future
times (bidirectional DCCP connections), this test may have to be more

76d127779e [DCCP]: Fix BUG in retransmission delay calculation
This bug resulted in ccid3_hc_tx_send_packet returning negative
delay values, which in turn triggered silently dequeueing packets in
dccp_write_xmit. As a result, only a few out of the submitted packets made
it at all onto the network.  Occasionally, when dccp_wait_for_ccid was
involved, this also triggered a bug warning since ccid3_hc_tx_send_packet
returned a negative value (which in reality was a negative delay value).

The cause for this bug lies in the comparison

 if (delay >= hctx->ccid3hctx_delta)
	return delay / 1000L;

The type of `delay' is `long', that of ccid3hctx_delta is `u32'. When comparing
negative long values against u32 values, the test returned `true' whenever delay
was smaller than 0 (meaning the packet was overdue to send).

The fix is by casting, subtracting, and then testing the difference with
regard to 0.

This has been tested and shown to work.

8a508ac26e [DCCP]: Use higher RTO default for CCID3
The TFRC nofeedback timer normally expires after the maximum of 4
RTTs and twice the current send interval (RFC 3448, 4.3). On LANs
with a small RTT this can mean a high processing load and reduced
performance, since then the nofeedback timer is triggered very
frequently.

This patch provides a configuration option to set the bound for the
nofeedback timer, using as default 100 milliseconds.

By setting the configuration option to 0, strict RFC 3448 behaviour
can be enforced for the nofeedback timer.

2b5f6dcce5 [XFRM]: Fix aevent structuring to be more complete.
aevents can not uniquely identify an SA. We break the ABI with this
patch, but consensus is that since it is not yet utilized by any
(known) application then it is fine (better do it now than later).
