* add die() to log an error message and exit with a single callLaine Stump2023-02-162-5/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Almost all occurences of err() are either immediately followed by exit(EXIT_FAILURE), usage(argv[0]) (which itself then calls exit(EXIT_FAILURE), or that is what's done immediately after returning from the function that calls err(). Modify the errfn macro so that its instantiations can include exit(EXIT_FAILURE) at the end, and use that to create a new function die() that will log an error and then exit.

* 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: Split pool lookup from creating new sockets in tcp_conn_new_sock()David Gibson2023-02-143-31/+31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. Both parts of this are duplicated in other places: the pool lookup logic is duplicated in tcp_splice_new(), and the socket opening logic is duplicated in tcp_sock_refill_pool(). Split the function into separate parts so we can remove both these duplications. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au> Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>
* tcp: Move socket pool declarations aroundDavid Gibson2023-02-144-48/+55
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | tcp_splice.c has some explicit extern declarations to access the socket pools. This is pretty dangerous - if we changed the type of these variables in tcp.c, we'd have tcp.c and tcp_splice.c using the same memory in different ways with no compiler error. So, move the extern declarations to tcp_conn.h so they're visible to both tcp.c and tcp_splice.c, but not the rest of pasta. In fact the pools for the guest namespace are necessarily only used by tcp_splice.c - we have no sockets on the guest side if we're not splicing. So move those declarations and the functions that deal exclusively with them to tcp_splice.c Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au> Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>

* tcp: Make a helper to refill each socket poolDavid Gibson2023-02-141-30/+33
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | tcp_sock_refill() contains two near-identical loops to refill the IPv4 and IPv6 socket pools. In addition, if we get an error on the IPv4 pool we exit early and won't attempt to refill the IPv6 pool. At least theoretically, these are independent from each other and there's value to filling up either pool without the other. So, there's no strong reason to give up on one because the other failed. Address both of these with a helper function 'tcp_sock_refill_pool()' to refill a single given pool.

This is harmless, but after commit "pasta: propagate exit code from child command", we'll get test failures there, at least with dash. Ignore those explicitly with a ugly workaround: we can't simply do something like: exit || : because the failure is reported by the shell itself once it exits, regardless of the command evaluation.

* Make assertions actually usefulDavid Gibson2023-02-127-20/+32
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are some places in passt/pasta which #include <assert.h> and make various assertions. 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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently both the TCP and UDP code need to deal in various places with the details of the L2 headers, and also the tap-specific "vnet_len" header. This makes abstracting the tap interface to new backends (e.g. vhost-user or tun) more difficult. To improve this abstraction, create a new 'tap_hdr' structure which represents both L2 (always Ethernet at the moment, but might be vary in future) and any additional tap specific headers (such as the qemu socket's vnet_len field).

However, the logic for finding where we're up to in the case of a short sendmsg() can equally well tell whether we've had one at all, without knowing the total number in advance.

That's what we want for its single caller but it's not the only obvious choice here (one frame per msghdr would arguably make more sense in isolation). In addition pcapm() has logic that only makes sense in the context of the passt specific path its called from: it skips the first 4 bytes of each buffer, because those have the qemu vnet_len rather than the frame proper. Make this clearer by replacing pcapm() with pcap_multiple() which more explicitly takes one struct iovec per frame, and parameterizes how much of each buffer to skip (i.e. the offset of the frame within the buffer).

* udp: Don't use separate sockets to listen for spliced packetsDavid Gibson2023-01-131-40/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, when ports are forwarded inbound in pasta mode, we open two sockets for incoming traffic: one listens on the public IP address and will forward packets to the tuntap interface. The other listens on localhost and forwards via "splicing" (resending directly via sockets in the ns). Now that we've improved the logic about whether we "splice" any individual packet, we don't need this. Instead we can have a single socket bound to 0.0.0.0 or ::, marked as able to splice and udp_sock_handler() will deal with each packet as appropriate.

* udp: Decide whether to "splice" per datagram rather than per socketDavid Gibson2023-01-132-20/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently we have special sockets for receiving datagrams from locahost which can use the optimized "splice" path rather than going across the tap interface. We want to loosen this so that sockets can receive sockets that will be forwarded by both the spliced and non-spliced paths. To do this, we alter the meaning of the @splice bit in the reference to mean that packets receieved on this socket *can* be spliced, not that they *will* be spliced. They'll only actually be spliced if they come from 127.0.0.1 or ::1. We can't (for now) remove the splice bit entirely, unlike with TCP. Our gateway mapping means that if the ns initiates communication to the gw address, we'll translate that to target 127.0.0.1 on the host side. Reply packets will therefore have source address 127.0.0.1 when received on the host, but these need to go via the tap path where that will be translated back to the gateway address. We need the @splice bit to distinguish that case from packets going from localhost to a port mapped explicitly with -u which should be spliced.

* udp: Unify udp_sock_handler_splice() with udp_sock_handler()David Gibson2023-01-131-60/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | These two functions now have a very similar structure, and their first part (calling recvmmsg()) is functionally identical. So, merge the two functions into one. This does have the side effect of meaning we no longer receive multiple packets at once for splice (we already didn't for tap). This does hurt throughput for small spliced packets, but improves it for large spliced packets and tap packets.

* udp: Pre-populate msg_names with local addressDavid Gibson2023-01-132-22/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | udp_splice_namebuf is now used only for spliced sending, and so it is only ever populated with the localhost address, either IPv4 or IPv6. So, replace the awkward initialization in udp_sock_handler_splice() with statically initialized versions for IPv4 and IPv6. We then just need to update the port number in udp_sock_handler_splice().

* udp: Don't handle tap receive batch size calculation within a #defineDavid Gibson2023-01-131-3/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | UDP_MAX_FRAMES gives the maximum number of datagrams we'll ever handle as a batch for sizing our buffers and control structures. The subtly different UDP_TAP_FRAMES gives the maximum number of datagrams we'll actually try to receive at once for tap packets in the current configuration. This depends on the mode, meaning that the macro has a non-obvious dependency on the usual 'c' context variable being available. We only use it in one place, so it makes more sense to open code this.

* udp: Split receive from preparation and send in udp_sock_handler()David Gibson2023-01-131-27/+52
| | | | | | | | | | | The receive part of udp_sock_handler() and udp_sock_handler_splice() is now almost identical. In preparation for merging that, split the receive part of udp_sock_handler() from the part preparing and sending the frames for sending on the tap interface. The latter goes into a new udp_tap_send() function. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au> Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>
* udp: Split sending to passt tap interface into separate functionDavid Gibson2023-01-131-58/+72
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The last part of udp_sock_handler() does the actual sending of frames to the tap interface. For pasta that's just a call to udp_tap_send_pasta() but for passt, it's moderately complex and open coded. For symmetry, move the passt send path into its own function, udp_tap_send_passt(). This will make it easier to abstract the tap interface in future (e.g. when we want to add vhost-user).

* udp: Move sending pasta tap frames to the end of udp_sock_handler()David Gibson2023-01-131-19/+42
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | udp_sock_handler() has a surprising difference in flow between pasta and passt mode: For pasta we send each frame to the tap interface as we prepare it. For passt, though, we prepare all the frames, then send them with a single sendmmsg(). Alter the pasta path to also prepare all the frames, then send them at the end. We already have a suitable data structure for the passt case. This will make it easier to abstract out the tap backend difference in future.

* udp: Factor out control structure management from udp_sock_fill_data_v[46]David Gibson2022-12-061-68/+50
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The main purpose of udp_sock_fill_data_v[46]() is to construct the IP, UDP and other headers we'll need to forward data onto the tap interface. In addition they update the control structures (iovec and mmsghdr) we'll need to send the messages, and in the case of pasta actually sends it. This leads the control structure management and the send itself awkwardly split between udp_sock_fill_data_v[46]() and their caller udp_sock_handler(). In addition, this tail part of udp_sock_fill_datav[46] is essentially common between the IPv4 and IPv6 versions, apart from which control array we're working on. Clean this up by reducing these functions to just construct the headers and renaming them to udp_update_hdr[46]() accordingly. The control structure updates are now all in the caller, and common for IPv4 and IPv6. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au> Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>
* udp: Preadjust udp[46]_l2_iov_tap[].iov_base for pasta modeDavid Gibson2022-12-061-18/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, we always populate udp[46]_l2_iov_tap[].iov_base with the very start of the header buffers, including space for the qemu vnet_len tag suitable for passt mode. That's ok because we don't actually use these iovecs for pasta mode. However, we do know the mode in udp_sock[46]_iov_init() so adjust these to the beginning of the headers we'll actually need for the mode: including the vnet_len tag for passt, but excluding it for pasta. This allows a slightly nicer way to locate the right buffer to send in the pasta case, and will allow some additional cleanups later.

By using some local variables to refer to the IP version specific control arrays, make some more logic common between the IPv4 and IPv6 paths. As well as slightly reducing the code size, this makes it less likely that we'll accidentally use the IPv4 arrays in the IPv6 path or vice versa as we did in a recently fixed bug.
