* log: Send identifier string in log messages, openlog() won't work for usStefano Brivio2023-02-271-7/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | openlog() can be used to set "ident" and have all the log messages prefixed by it, but only if we call syslog() -- this is implemented by C libraries. We don't log messages with syslog(), though, as we have a custom implementation to ensure we don't need dynamic memory allocation. This means that it's perfectly useless to call openlog(), and that we have to prefix every message we log by the identifier on our own.

* conf, udp: Allow any loopback address to be used as resolverStefano Brivio2023-02-272-10/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Andrea reports that with a Fedora 37 guest running on a Fedora 37 host, both using systemd-resolved, with passt connecting them, running with default options, DNS queries don't work. systemd-resolved on the host is reachable only at the loopback address 127.0.0.53. We advertise the default gateway address to the guest as resolver, because our local address is of course unreachable from there, which means we see DNS queries directed to the default gateway, and we redirect them to 127.0.0.1. However, systemd-resolved doesn't answer on 127.0.0.1. To fix this, set @dns_match to the address of the default gateway, unless a different resolver address is explicitly configured, so that we know we explicitly have to map DNS queries, in this case, to the address of the local resolver. This means that in udp_tap_handler() we need to check, first, if the destination address of packets matches @dns_match: even if it's the address of the local gateway, we want to map that to a specific address, which isn't necessarily 127.0.0.1. Do the same for IPv6 for consistency, even though IPv6 defines a single loopback address.

* log: Don't duplicate messages on stderr before daemonisingStefano Brivio2023-02-161-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that logging functions force printing messages to stderr before passt forks to background, we'll have duplicate messages when running from an interactive terminal, or if --stderr is passed, because at some point we set LOG_PERROR in our __openlog() wrapper. We could defer setting LOG_PERROR, but that would change option semantics in other, unexpected ways. We could force calling passt_vsyslog() as long as the mask is set to LOG_EMERG, but that complicates the logic in logging functions even further. Go the easy way for now: don't force printing to stderr with LOG_EMERG if LOG_PERROR is already set. We should seriously consider a rework of those logging functions at this point.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Rather than having conf_ports() (possibly) log an error, and then letting the caller log the entire usage() message and exit, just log the errors and exit immediately (using die()). For some errors, conf_ports would previously not log any specific message, leaving it up to the user to determine the problem by guessing. We replace all of those silent returns with die() (logging a specific error), thus permitting us to make conf_ports() return void, which simplifies the caller. While modifying the two callers to conf_ports() to not check for a return value, we can further simplify the code by removing the check for a non-null optarg, as that is guaranteed to never happen (due to prior calls to getopt_long() with "argument required" for all relevant options - getopt_long() would have already caught this error).

* eliminate most calls to usage() in conf()Laine Stump2023-02-161-214/+122
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Nearly all of the calls to usage() in conf() occur immediately after logging a more detailed error message, and the fact that these errors are occuring indicates that the user has already seen the passt usage message (or read the manpage). Spamming the logfile with the complete contents of the usage message serves only to obscure the more detailed error message. The only time when the full usage message should be output is if the user explicitly asks for it with -h (or its synonyms) As a start to eliminating the excessive calls to usage(), this patch replaces most calls to err() followed by usage() with a call to die() instead. A few other usage() calls remain, but their removal involves bit more nuance that should be properly explained in separate commit messages.

* log to stderr until process is daemonized, even if a log file is setLaine Stump2023-02-162-9/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Once a log file (specified on the commandline) is opened, the logging functions will stop sending error logs to stderr, which is annoying if passt has been started by another process that wants to collect error messages from stderr so it can report why passt failed to start. It would be much nicer if passt continued sending all log messages to stderr until it daemonizes itself (at which point the process that started passt can assume that it was started successfully). The system log mask is set to LOG_EMERG when the process starts, and we're already using that to do "special" logging during the period from process start until the log level requested on the commandline is processed (setting the log mask to something else). This period *almost* matches with "the time before the process is daemonized"; if we just delay setting the log mask a tiny bit, then it will match exactly, and we can use it to determine if we need to send log messages to stderr even when a log file has been specified and opened. This patch delays the setting of the log mask until immediately before the call to __daemon(). It also modifies logfn() slightly, so that it will log to stderr any time log mask is LOG_EMERG, even if a log file has been opened.

* tcp: Improve handling of fallback if socket pool is empty on new spliceDavid Gibson2023-02-143-60/+32
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When creating a new spliced connection, we need to get a socket in the other ns from the originating one. To avoid excessive ns switches we usually get these from a pool refilled on a timer. However, if the pool runs out we need a fallback. Currently that's done by passing -1 as the socket to tcp_splice_connnect() and running it in the target ns. This means that tcp_splice_connect() itself needs to have different cases depending on whether it's given an existing socket or not, which is a separate concern from what it's mostly doing. We change it to require a suitable open socket to be passed in, and ensuring in the caller that we have one. This requires adding the fallback paths to the caller, tcp_splice_new(). We use slightly different approaches for a socket in the init ns versus the guest ns. This also means that we no longer need to run tcp_splice_connect() itself in the guest ns, which allows us to remove a bunch of boilerplate code.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | tcp_conn_new_sock() first looks for a socket in a pre-opened pool, then if that's empty creates a new socket in the init namespace.

If we hit these something has already gone wrong, but they're there so that we a useful message instead of cryptic misbehaviour if assumptions we thought were correct turn out not to be. Except.. the glibc implementation of assert() uses syscalls that aren't in our seccomp filter, so we'll get a SIGSYS before it actually prints the message. Work around this by adding our own ASSERT() implementation using our existing err() function to log the message, and an abort(). The abort() probably also won't work exactly right with seccomp, but once we've printed the message, dying with a SIGSYS works just as well as dying with a SIGABRT.

* tcp: Reset ACK_FROM_TAP_DUE flag only as needed, update timerStefano Brivio2023-02-121-14/+38
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | David reports that TCP transfers might stall, especially with smaller socket buffer sizes, because we reset the ACK_FROM_TAP_DUE flag, in tcp_tap_handler(), whenever we receive an ACK segment, regardless of its sequence number and the fact that we might still be waiting for one. This way, we might fail to re-transmit frames on ACK timeouts. We need, instead, to: - indicate with the @retrans field only re-transmissions for the same data sequences. If we make progress, it should be reset, given that it's used to abort a connection when we exceed a given number of re-transmissions for the same data - unset the ACK_FROM_TAP_DUE flag if and only if the acknowledged sequence is the same as the last one we sent, as suggested by David - keep it set otherwise, if progress was done but not all the data we sent was acknowledged, and update the expiration of the ACK timeout Add a new helper for these purposes, tcp_update_seqack_from_tap(). To extend the ACK timeout, the new helper sets the ACK_FROM_TAP_DUE flag, even if it was already set, and conn_flag_do() triggers a timer update. This part should be revisited at a later time, because, strictly speaking, ACK_FROM_TAP_DUE isn't a flag anymore. One possibility might be to introduce another connection attribute for events affecting timer deadlines.

* pasta: Wait for tap to be set up before spawning commandStefano Brivio2023-02-123-1/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Adapted from a patch by Paul Holzinger: when pasta spawns a command, operating without a pre-existing user and network namespace, it needs to wait for the tap device to be configured and its handler ready, before the command is actually executed. Otherwise, something like: pasta --config-net nslookup passt.top usually fails as the nslookup command is issued before the network interface is ready. We can't adopt a simpler approach based on SIGSTOP and SIGCONT here: the child runs in a separate PID namespace, so it can't send SIGSTOP to itself as the kernel sees the child as init process and blocks the delivery of the signal. We could send SIGSTOP from the parent, but this wouldn't avoid the possible condition where the child isn't ready to wait for it when the parent sends it, also raised by Paul -- and SIGSTOP can't be blocked, so it can never be pending. Use SIGUSR1 instead: mask it before clone(), so that the child starts with it blocked, and can safely wait for it. Once the parent is ready, it sends SIGUSR1 to the child. If SIGUSR1 is sent before the child is waiting for it, the kernel will queue it for us, because it's blocked.

* udp: Use tap_send_frames()David Gibson2023-01-234-166/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To send frames on the tap interface, the UDP uses a fairly complicated two level batching. First multiple frames are gathered into a single "message" for the qemu stream socket, then multiple messages are send with sendmmsg(). We now have tap_send_frames() which already deals with sending a number of frames, including batching and handling partial sends. Use that to considerably simplify things. This does make a couple of behavioural changes: * We used to split messages to keep them under 32kiB (except when a single frame was longer than that). The comments claim this is needed to stop qemu from closing the connection, but we don't have any equivalent logic for TCP. I wasn't able to reproduce the problem with this series, although it was apparently easy to reproduce earlier. My suspicion is that there was never an inherent need to keep messages small, however with larger messages (and default kernel buffer sizes) the chances of needing more than one resend for partial send()s is greatly increased. We used not to correctly handle that case of multiple resends, but now we do. * Previously when we got a partial send on UDP, we would resend the remainder of the entire "message", including multiple frames. The common code now only resends the remainder of a single frame, simply dropping any frames which weren't even partially sent. This is what TCP always did and is probably a better idea for UDP too.

* tap: Improve handling of partial frame sendsDavid Gibson2023-01-231-13/+36
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In passt mode, when writing frames to the qemu socket, we might get a short send. If we ignored this and carried on, the qemu socket would get out of sync, because the bytes we actually sent wouldn't correspond to the length header we already sent. tap_send_frames_passt() handles that by doing a a blocking send to complete the message, but it has a few flaws: * We only attempt to resend once: although it's unlikely in practice, nothing prevents the blocking send() from also being short * We print a debug error if send() returns non-zero.. but send() returns the number of bytes sent, so we actually want it to return the length of the remaining data. Correct those flaws and also be a bit more thorough about reporting problems here. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au> Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>
