* tap: Pass source address to protocol handler functionsDavid Gibson2023-08-221-11/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | The tap code passes the IPv4 or IPv6 destination address of packets it receives to the protocol specific code. Currently that protocol code doesn't use the source address, but we want it to in future. So, in preparation, pass the IPv4/IPv6 source address of tap packets to those functions as well.

* epoll: Split handling of listening TCP sockets into their own handlerDavid Gibson2023-08-131-29/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | tcp_sock_handler() handles both listening TCP sockets, and connected TCP sockets, but what it needs to do in those cases has essentially nothing in common. Therefore, give listening sockets their own epoll_type value and dispatch directly to their own handler from the top level. Furthermore, the two handlers need essentially entirely different information from the reference: we re-(ab)used the index field in the tcp_epoll_ref to indicate the port for the listening socket, but that's not the same meaning. So, switch listening sockets to their own reference type which we can lay out as we please. That lets us remove the listen and outbound fields from the normal (connected) tcp_epoll_ref, reducing it to just the connection table index.

* epoll: Split handling of TCP timerfds into its own handler functionDavid Gibson2023-08-131-11/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | tcp_sock_handler() actually handles several different types of fd events. This includes timerfds that aren't sockets at all. The handling of these has essentially nothing in common with the other cases. So, give the TCP timers there own epoll_type value and dispatch directly to their handler. This also means we can remove the timer field from tcp_epoll_ref, the information it encoded is now implicit in the epoll_type value.

* epoll: Generalize epoll_ref to cover things other than socketsDavid Gibson2023-08-131-11/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The epoll_ref type includes fields for the IP protocol of a socket, and the socket fd. However, we already have a few things in the epoll which aren't protocol sockets, and we may have more in future. Rename these fields to an abstract "fd type" and file descriptor for more generality. Similarly, rather than using existing IP protocol numbers for the type, introduce our own number space. For now these just correspond to the supported protocols, but we'll expand on that in future.

* Use C11 anonymous members to make poll refs less verbose to useDavid Gibson2023-08-041-23/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | union epoll_ref has a deeply nested set of structs and unions to let us subdivide it into the various different fields we want. This means that referencing elements can involve an awkward long string of intermediate fields. Using C11 anonymous structs and unions lets us do this less clumsily.

* tcp: Clear ACK_FROM_TAP_DUE also on unchanged ACK sequence from peerStefano Brivio2023-03-291-3/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since commit cc6d8286d104 ("tcp: Reset ACK_FROM_TAP_DUE flag only as needed, update timer"), we don't clear ACK_FROM_TAP_DUE whenever we process an ACK segment, but, more correctly, only if we're really not waiting for a further ACK segment, that is, only if the acknowledged sequence matches what we sent. In the new function implementing this, tcp_update_seqack_from_tap(), we also reset the retransmission counter and store the updated ACK sequence. Both should be done iff forward progress is acknowledged, implied by the fact that the new ACK sequence is greater than the one we previously stored. At that point, it looked natural to also include the statements that clear and set the ACK_FROM_TAP_DUE flag inside the same conditional block: if we're not making forward progress, the need for an ACK, or lack thereof, should remain unchanged. There might be cases where this isn't true, though: without the previous commit 4e73e9bd655c ("tcp: Don't special case the handling of the ack of a syn"), this would happen if a tap-side client initiated a connection, and the server didn't send any data. At that point we would never, in the established state of the connection, call tcp_update_seqack_from_tap() with reported forward progress. That issue itself is fixed by the previous commit, now, but clearing ACK_FROM_TAP_DUE only on ACK sequence progress doesn't really follow any logic. Clear the ACK_FROM_TAP_DUE flag regardless of reported forward progress. If we clear it when it's already unset, conn_flag() will do nothing with it. This doesn't fix any known functional issue, rather a conceptual one.

* tcp: Don't special case the handling of the ack of a synDavid Gibson2023-03-291-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | TCP treats the SYN packets as though they occupied 1 byte in the logical data stream described by the sequence numbers. That is, the very first ACK (or SYN-ACK) each side sends should acknowledge a sequence number one greater than the initial sequence number given in the SYN or SYN-ACK it's responding to. In passt we were tracking that by advancing conn->seq_to_tap by one when we send a SYN or SYN-ACK (in tcp_send_flag()). However, we also initialized conn->seq_ack_from_tap, representing the acks we've already seen from the tap side, to ISN+1, meaning we treated it has having acknowledged the SYN before it actually did. There were apparently reasons for this in earlier versions, but it causes problems now. Because of this when we actually did receive the initial ACK or SYN-ACK, we wouldn't see the acknoweldged serial number as advancing, and so wouldn't clear the ACK_FROM_TAP_DUE flag. In most cases we'd get away because subsequent packets would clear the flag. However if one (or both) sides didn't send any data, the other side would (correctly) keep sending ISN+1 as the acknowledged sequence number, meaning we would never clear the ACK_FROM_TAP_DUE flag. That would mean we'd treat the connection as if we needed to retransmit (although we had 0 bytes to retransmit), and eventaully (after around 30s) reset the connection due to too many retransmits. Specifically this could cause the iperf3 throughput tests in the testsuite to fail if set for a long enough test period. Correct this by initializing conn->seq_ack_from_tap to the ISN and only advancing it when we actually get the first ACK (or SYN-ACK).

* tcp: Clarify allowed state for tcp_data_from_tap()David Gibson2023-03-291-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Comments suggest that this should only be called for an ESTABLISHED connection. However, it's non-trivial to ascertain that from the actual control flow in the caller. Add an ASSERT() to make it very clear that this is only called in ESTABLISHED state. In fact, there were some circumstances where it could be called on a CLOSED connection. In a sense that is "established", but with that assert this does require specific (trivial) handling to avoid a spurious abort().

* tcp: Don't reset ACK_TO_TAP_DUE on any ACK, reschedule timer as needed2023_03_21.1ee2f7cStefano Brivio2023-03-211-4/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is mostly symmetric with commit cc6d8286d104 ("tcp: Reset ACK_FROM_TAP_DUE flag only as needed, update timer"): we shouldn't reset the ACK_TO_TAP_DUE flag on any inbound ACK segment, but only once we acknowledge everything we received from the guest or the container. If we don't, a client might unnecessarily hold off further data, especially during slow start, and in general we won't converge to the usable bandwidth. This is very visible especially with traffic tests on links with non-negligible latency, such as in the reported issue. There, a public iperf3 server sometimes aborts the test due do what appears to be a low iperf3's --rcv-timeout (probably less than a second). Even if this doesn't happen, the throughput will converge to a fraction of the usable bandwidth. Clear ACK_TO_TAP_DUE if we acknowledged everything, set it if we didn't, and reschedule the timer in case the flag is still set as the timer expires. While at it, decrease the ACK timer interval to 10ms. A 50ms interval is short enough for any bandwidth-delay product I had in mind (local connections, or non-local connections with limited bandwidth), but here I am, testing 1gbps transfers to a peer with 100ms RTT. Indeed, we could eventually make the timer interval dependent on the current window and estimated bandwidth-delay product, but at least for the moment being, 10ms should be long enough to avoid any measurable syscall overhead, yet usable for any real-world application.

Unfortunately with the cppcheck version I'm using (cppcheck-2.9-1.fc37.x86_64 in Fedora 37) this causes weird false positives: specifically cppcheck seems to hit a #error in <bits/unistd.h> complaining about including it directly instead of via <unistd.h> (which is not something we're doing). I have no idea why that would be happening; but I'm guessing it has to be a bug in the cpp implementation in that cppcheck version. In any case, it's possible to work around this by moving the include of <unistd.h> before the include of <signal.h>. So, do that.

* tcp: Clamp MSS value when queueing data to tap, also for pastaStefano Brivio2023-03-091-14/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Tom reports that a pattern of repated ~1 MiB chunks downloads over NNTP over TLS, on Podman 4.4 using pasta as network back-end, results in pasta taking one full CPU thread after a while, and the download never succeeds. On that setup, we end up re-sending the same frame over and over, with a consistent 65 534 bytes size, and never get an acknowledgement from the tap-side client. This only happens for the default MTU value (65 520 bytes) or for values that are slightly smaller than that (down to 64 499 bytes). We hit this condition because the MSS value we use in tcp_data_from_sock(), only in pasta mode, is simply clamped to USHRT_MAX, and not to the actual size of the buffers we pre-cooked for sending, which is a bit less than that. It looks like we got away with it until commit 0fb7b2b9080a ("tap: Use different io vector bases depending on tap type") fixed the setting of iov_len. Luckily, since it's pasta, we're queueing up to two frames at a time, so the worst that can happen is a badly segmented TCP stream: we always have some space at the tail of the buffer. Clamp the MSS value to the appropriate maximum given by struct tcp{4,6}_buf_data_t, no matter if we're running in pasta or passt mode. While at it, fix the comments to those structs to reflect the current struct size. This is not really relevant for any further calculation or consideration, but it's convenient to know while debugging this kind of issues.

* conf, icmp, tcp, udp: Add options to bind to outbound address and interfaceStefano Brivio2023-03-091-0/+60
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I didn't notice earlier: libslirp (and slirp4netns) supports binding outbound sockets to specific IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, to force the source addresse selection. If we want to claim feature parity, we should implement that as well. Further, Podman supports specifying outbound interfaces as well, but this is simply done by resolving the primary address for an interface when the network back-end is started. However, since kernel version 5.7, commit c427bfec18f2 ("net: core: enable SO_BINDTODEVICE for non-root users"), we can actually bind to a specific interface name, which doesn't need to be validated in advance. Implement -o / --outbound ADDR to bind to IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, and --outbound-if4 and --outbound-if6 to bind IPv4 and IPv6 sockets to given interfaces. Given that it probably makes little sense to select addresses and routes from interfaces different than the ones given for outbound sockets, also assign those as "template" interfaces, by default, unless explicitly overridden by '-i'. For ICMP and UDP, we call sock_l4() to open outbound sockets, as we already needed to bind to given ports or echo identifiers, and we can bind() a socket only once: there, pass address (if any) and interface (if any) for the existing bind() and setsockopt() calls. For TCP, in general, we wouldn't otherwise bind sockets. Add a specific helper to do that. For UDP outbound sockets, we need to know if the final destination of the socket is a loopback address, before we decide whether it makes sense to bind the socket at all: move the block mangling the address destination before the creation of the socket in the IPv4 path. This was already the case for the IPv6 path. Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Recently, commit 4ddbcb9c0c55 ("tcp: Disable optimisations for tcp_hash()") worked around yet another issue we hit with gcc 12 and '-flto -O2': some stores affecting the input data to siphash_20b() were omitted altogether, and tcp_hash() wouldn't get the correct hash for incoming connections. Digging further into this revealed that, at least according to gcc's interpretation of C99 aliasing rules, passing pointers to functions with different types compared to the effective type of the object (for example, a uint8_t pointer to an anonymous struct, as it happens in tcp_hash()), doesn't guarantee that stores are not reordered across the function call. This means that, in general, our checksum and hash functions might not see parts of input data that was intended to be provided by callers. Not even switching from uint8_t to character types, which should be appropriate here, according to C99 (ISO/IEC 9899, TC3, draft N1256), section 6.5, "Expressions", paragraph 7: An object shall have its stored value accessed only by an lvalue expression that has one of the following types: [...] — a character type. does the trick. I guess this is also subject to interpretation: casting passed pointers to character types, and then using those as different types, might still violate (dubious) aliasing rules. Disable gcc strict aliasing rules for potentially affected functions, which, in turn, disables gcc's Type-Based Alias Analysis (TBAA) optimisations based on those function arguments. Drop the existing workarounds. Also the (seemingly?) bogus 'maybe-uninitialized' warning on the tcp_tap_handler() > tcp_hash() > siphash_20b() path goes away with -fno-strict-aliasing on siphash_20b().

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

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.

* Make assertions actually usefulDavid Gibson2023-02-121-5/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | tcp[46]_l2_buf_bytes keep track of the total number of bytes we have queued to send to the tap interface. tcp_l2_buf_flush_passt() uses this to determine if sendmsg() has sent all the data we requested, or whether we need to resend a trailing portion. 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. This does require an extra loop after each sendmsg(), but it's doing simple arithmetic on values we've already been accessing, and it leads to overall simpler code. tcp[46]_l2_flags_buf_bytes were being calculated, but never used for anything, so simply remove them.

* pcap: Replace pcapm() with pcap_multiple()David Gibson2023-01-231-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | pcapm() captures multiple frames from a msghdr, however the only thing it cares about in the msghdr is the list of buffers, where it assumes there is one frame to capture per buffer. 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).

* tcp: Use dual stack sockets for port forwarding when possibleDavid Gibson2022-11-251-2/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Platforms like Linux allow IPv6 sockets to listen for IPv4 connections as well as native IPv6 connections. By doing this we halve the number of listening sockets we need for TCP (assuming passt/pasta is listening on the same ports for IPv4 and IPv6). When forwarding many ports (e.g. -t all) this can significantly reduce the amount of kernel memory that passt consumes. When forwarding all TCP and UDP ports for both IPv4 and IPv6 (-t all -u all), this reduces kernel memory usage from ~677MiB to ~487MiB (kernel version 6.0.8 on Fedora 37, x86_64).
