Our allocation scheme for flow entries means there are some
non-obvious constraints on when what things can be done with an entry.
Add a big doc comment explaining the life cycle.
In addition, make a FLOW_START() macro to mark one of the important
transitions. This encourages correct usage, by making it natural to
only access the flow type specific structure after calling it. It
also logs that a new flow has been created, which is useful for
debugging.
We also add logging when a flow's lifecycle ends. This doesn't need a
new helper, because it can only happen either from flow_alloc_cancel()
or from the flow deferred handler.

The epoll references for both TCP listening sockets and UDP sockets
includes a port number. This gives the destination port that traffic
to that socket will be sent to on the other side. That will usually
be the same as the socket's bound port, but might not if the -t, -u,
-T or -U options are given with different original and forwarded port
numbers.
As we move towards a more flexible forwarding model for passt, it's
going to become possible for that destination port to vary depending
on more things (for example the source or destination address). So,
it will no longer make sense to have a fixed value for a listening
socket.
Change to simpler semantics where this field in the reference gives
the bound port of the socket. We apply the translations to the
correct destination port later on, when we're actually forwarding.

There are a number of places where we want to handle either a
sockaddr_in or a sockaddr_in6. In some of those we use a void *,
which works ok and matches some standard library interfaces, but
doesn't give a signature level hint that we're dealing with only
sockaddr_in or sockaddr_in6, not (say) sockaddr_un or another type of
socket address. Other places we use a sockaddr_storage, which also
works, but has the same problem in addition to allocating more on the
stack than we need to.
Introduce union sockaddr_inany to explictly handle this case: it has
variants for sockaddr_in and sockaddr_in6. Use it in a number of
places where it's easy to do so.

Our inany_addr type is used in some places to represent either IPv4 or
IPv6 addresses, and we plan to use it more widely. We don't yet
provide constants of this type for special addresses (loopback and
"any"). Add some of these, both the IPv4 and IPv6 variants of those
addresses, but typed as union inany_addr.
To avoid actually adding more things to .data we can use some macros and
casting to overlay the IPv6 versions of these with the standard library's
in6addr_loopback and in6addr_any. For the IPv4 versions we need to create
new constant globals.
For complicated historical reasons, the standard library doesn't
provide constants for IPv4 loopback and any addresses as struct
in_addr. It just has macros of type in_addr_t == uint32_t, which has
some gotchas w.r.t. endianness. We can use some more macros to
address this lack, using macros to effectively create these IPv4
constants as pieces of the inany constants above.
We use this last to avoid some awkward temporary variables just used
to get an address of an IPv4 loopback address.

If tcp_sock_refill_pool() gets an error opening new sockets, it stores the
negative errno of that error in the socket pool. This isn't especially
useful:
* It's inconsistent with the initial state of the pool (all -1)
* It's inconsistent with the state of an entry that was valid and was
then consumed (also -1)
* By the time we did anything with this error code, it's now far removed
from the situation in which the error occurred, making it difficult to
report usefully
We now have error reporting closer to when failures happen on the refill
paths, so just leave a pool slot we can't fill as -1.

We maintain pools of ready-to-connect sockets in both the original and
(for pasta) guest namespace to reduce latency when starting new TCP
connections. If we exhaust those pools we have to take a higher
latency path to get a new socket.
Currently we open-code that fallback in the places we need it. To improve
clarity encapsulate that into helper functions. While we're at it, give
those helpers clearer error reporting.

Currently if tcp_sock_refill_pool() is unable to fill all the slots in the
pool, it will silently exit. This might lead to a later attempt to get
fds from the pool to fail at which point it will be harder to tell what
originally went wrong.
Instead add warnings if we're unable to refill any of the socket pools when
requested. We have tcp_sock_refill_pool() return an error and report it
in the callers, because those callers have more context allowing for a
more useful message.

Currently if we get an error opening a new socket while refilling a socket
pool, we carry on to the next slot and try again. This isn't very useful,
since by far the most likely cause of an error is some sort of resource
exhaustion. Trying again will probably just hit the same error, and maybe
even make things worse.
So, instead stop on the first error while refilling the pool, making do
with however many sockets we managed to open before the error.

Currently tcp_sock_refill_pool() stops as soon as it finds an entry in the
pool with a valid fd. This appears to makes sense: we always use fds from
the front of the pool, so if we find a filled one, the rest of the pool
should be filled as well.
However, that's not quite correct. If a previous refill hit errors trying
to open new sockets, it could leave gaps between blocks of valid fds. We're
going to add some changes that could make that more likely.
So, for robustness, instead skip over the filled entry but still try to
refill the rest of the array. We expect simply iterating over the pool to
be of small cost compared to even a single system call, so this shouldn't
have much impact.

When a duplicate ack from the tap side triggers a fast re-transmit, we set
both conn->seq_ack_from_tap and conn->seq_to_tap to the sequence number of
the duplicate ack. Setting seq_to_tap is correct: this is what triggers
the retransmit from this point onwards. Setting seq_ack_from_tap is
not correct, though.
In most cases setting seq_ack_from_tap will be redundant but harmless:
it will have already been updated to the same value by
tcp_update_seqack_from_tap() a few lines above. However that call can
be skipped if tcp_sock_consume() fails, which is rare but possible. In
that case this update will cause problems.
We use seq_ack_from_tap to track two logically distinct things: how much of
the stream has been acked by the guest, and how much of the stream from the
socket has been read and discarded (as opposed to MSG_PEEKed). We attempt
to keep those values the same, because we discard data exactly when it is
acked by the guest. However tcp_sock_consume() failing means we weren't
able to disard the acked data. To handle that case, we skip the usual
update of seq_ack_from_tap, effectively ignoring the ack assuming we'll get
one which supersedes it soon enough. Setting seq_ack_from_tap in the
fast retransmit path, however, means we now really will have the
read/discard point in the stream out of sync with seq_ack_from_tap.

Currently we always keep the flow table maximally compact: that is all the
active entries are contiguous at the start of the table. Doing this
sometimes requires moving an entry when one is freed. That's kind of
fiddly, and potentially expensive: it requires updating the hash table for
the new location, and depending on flow type, it may require EPOLL_CTL_MOD,
system calls to update epoll tags with the new location too.
Implement a new way of managing the flow table that doesn't ever move
entries. It attempts to maintain some compactness by always using the
first free slot for a new connection, and mitigates the effect of non
compactness by cheaply skipping over contiguous blocks of free entries.
See the "theory of operation" comment in flow.c for details.

Currently, flows are only evern finally freed (and the table compacted)
from the deferred handlers. Some future ways we want to optimise managing
the flow table will rely on this, so enforce it: rather than having the
TCP code directly call flow_table_compact(), add a boolean return value to
the per-flow deferred handlers. If true, this indicates that the flow
code itself should free the flow.
This forces all freeing of flows to occur during the flow code's scan of
the table in flow_defer_handler() which opens possibilities for future
optimisations.

Currently tcp.c open codes the process of allocating a new flow from the
flow table: twice, in fact, once for guest to host and once for host to
guest connections. This duplication isn't ideal and will get worse as we
add more protocols to the flow table. It also makes it harder to
experiment with different ways of handling flow table allocation.
Instead, introduce a function to allocate a new flow: flow_alloc(). In
some cases we currently check if we're able to allocate, but delay the
actual allocation. We now handle that slightly differently with a
flow_alloc_cancel() function to back out a recent allocation. We have that
separate from a flow_free() function, because future changes we have in
mind will need to handle this case a little differently.

In general, the passt code is a bit haphazard about what's a true global
variable and what's in the quasi-global 'context structure'. The
flow_count field is one such example: it's in the context structure,
although it's really part of the same data structure as flowtab[], which
is a genuine global.
Move flow_count to be a regular global to match. For now it needs to be
public, rather than static, but we expect to be able to change that in
future.

Currently connected TCP sockets have the same epoll type, whether they're
for a "tap" connection or a spliced connection. This means that
tcp_sock_handler() has to do a secondary check on the type of the
connection to call the right function. We can avoid this by adding a new
epoll type and dispatching directly to the right thing.

tcp_timer() scans the flow table so that it can run tcp_splice_timer() on
each spliced connection. More generally, other flow types might want to
run similar timers in future.
We could add a flow_timer() analagous to tcp_timer(), udp_timer() etc.
However, this would need to scan the flow table, which we would have just
done in flow_defer_handler(). We'd prefer to just scan the flow table
once, dispatching both per-flow deferred events and per-flow timed events
if necessary.
So, extend flow_defer_handler() to do this. For now we use the same timer
interval for all flow types (1s). We can make that more flexible in future
if we need to.

tcp_defer_handler(), amongst other things, scans the flow table and does
some processing for each TCP connection. When we add other protocols to
the flow table, they're likely to want some similar scanning. It makes
more sense for cache friendliness to perform a single scan of the flow
table and dispatch to the protocol specific handlers, rather than having
each protocol separately scan the table.
To that end, add a new flow_defer_handler() handling all flow-linked
deferred operations.

tcp_timer() scans the connection table, expiring "tap" connections and
calling tcp_splice_timer() for "splice" connections. tcp_splice_timer()
expires spliced connections and then does some other processing.
However, tcp_timer() is always called shortly after tcp_defer_handler()
(from post_handler()), which also scans the flow table expiring both tap
and spliced connections. So remove the redundant handling, and only do
the extra tcp_splice_timer() work from tcp_timer().

flow_table.h, the lower level flow header relies on having the struct
definitions for every protocol specific flow type - so far that means
tcp_conn.h. It doesn't include it itself, so tcp_conn.h must be included
before flow_table.h.
That's ok for now, but as we use the flow table for more things,
flow_table.h will need the structs for all of them, which means the
protocol specific .c files would need to include tcp_conn.h _and_ the
equivalents for every other flow type before flow_table.h every time,
which is weird.
So, although we *mostly* lean towards the include style where .c files need
to handle the include dependencies, in this case it makes more sense to
have flow_table.h include all the protocol specific headers it needs.

This takes a struct in_addr * (i.e. an IPv4 address), although it's
explicitly supposed to handle IPv6 as well. Both its caller and sock_l4()
which it calls use a void * for the address, which can be either an in_addr

We get away with this, because we don't do anything with the pointer other
than transfer it from the caller to sock_l4(), but it's misleading. And
quite possibly technically UB, because C is like that.

Currently tcp_hash() returns the hash bucket for a value, that is the hash
modulo the size of the hash table. Usually it's a bit more flexible to
have hash functions return a "raw" hash value and perform the modulus in
the callers. That allows the same hash function to be used for multiple
tables of different sizes, or to re-use the hash for other purposes.
We don't do anything like that with tcp_hash() at present, but we have some

We implement our hash table with pointers to the entry for each bucket (or
NULL). However, the entries are always allocated within the flow table,
meaning that a flow index will suffice, halving the size of the hash table.
For TCP, just a flow index would be enough, but future uses will want to
expand the hash table to cover indexing either side of a flow, so use a
flow_sidx_t as the type for each hash bucket.

Currently we deal with hash collisions by letting a hash bucket contain
multiple entries, forming a linked list using an index in the connection
structure.
That's a pretty standard and simple approach, but in our case we can use
an even simpler one: linear probing. Here if a hash bucket is occupied
we just move onto the next one until we find a feww one. This slightly
simplifies lookup and more importantly saves some precious bytes in the
connection structure by removing the need for a link. It does require some
additional complexity for hash removal.
This approach can perform poorly with hash table load is high. However, we
already size our hash table of pointers larger than the connection table,
which puts an upper bound on the load. It's relatively cheap to decrease
that bound if we find we need to.
I adapted the linear probing operations from Knuth's The Art of Computer
Programming, Volume 3, 2nd Edition. Specifically Algorithm L and Algorithm
R in Section 6.4. Note that there is an error in Algorithm R as printed,
see errata at [0].

tcp_hash_lookup() expects the port numbers in host order, but the TCP
header, of course, has them in network order, so we need to switch them.
However we call htons() (host to network) instead of ntohs() (network to
host). This works because those do the same thing in practice (they only
wouldn't on very strange theoretical platforms which are neither big nor
little endian).
But, having this the "wrong" way around is misleading, so switch it around.

When a TCP connection is closed, we mark it by setting events to CLOSED,
then some time later we do final cleanups: closing sockets, removing from
the hash table and so forth.
This does mean that when making a hash lookup we need to exclude any
apparent matches that are CLOSED, since they represent a stale connection.
This can happen in practice if one connection closes and a new one with the
same endpoints is started shortly afterward.
Checking for CLOSED is quite specific to TCP however, and won't work when
we extend the hash table to more general flows. So, alter the code to
immediately remove the connection from the hash table when CLOSED, although
we still defer closing sockets and other cleanup.

Currently TCP uses the 'flow' epoll_ref field for both connected
sockets and timers, which consists of just the index of the relevant
flow (connection).
This is just fine for timers, for while it obviously works, it's
subtly incomplete for sockets on spliced connections. In that case we
want to know which side of the connection the event is occurring on as
well as which connection. At present, we deduce that information by
looking at the actual fd, and comparing it to the fds of the sockets
on each side.
When we use the flow table for more things, we expect more cases where
something will need to know a specific side of a specific flow for an
event, but nothing more.
Therefore add a new 'flowside' epoll_ref field, with exactly that
information. We use it for TCP connected sockets. This allows us to
directly know the side for spliced connections. For "tap"
connections, it's pretty meaningless, since the side is always the
socket side. It still makes logical sense though, and it may become
important for future flow table work.

TCP uses three different epoll object types: one for connected sockets, one
for timers and one for listening sockets. Listening sockets really need
information that's specific to TCP, so need their own epoll_ref field.
Timers and connected sockets, however, only need the connection (flow)
they're associated with. As we expand the use of the flow table, we expect
that to be true for more epoll fds. So, rename the "TCP" epoll_ref field
to be a "flow" epoll_ref field that can be used both for TCP and for other
future cases.

In tcp_timer_handler() we use conn_at_idx() to interpret the flow index
from the epoll reference. However, this will never be NULL - we always
put a valid index into the epoll_ref. Simplify slightly based on this.

Most of the messages logged by the TCP code (be they errors, debug or
trace messages) are related to a specific connection / flow. We're fairly
consistent about prefixing these with the type of connection and the
connection / flow index. However there are a few places where we put the
index later in the message or omit it entirely. The template with the
prefix is also a little bulky to carry around for every message,
particularly for spliced connections.
To help keep this consistent, introduce some helpers to log messages
linked to a specific flow. It takes the flow as a parameter and adds a
uniform prefix to each message. This makes things slightly neater now, but
more importantly will help keep formatting consistent as we add more things
to the flow table.

tcp_table_compact() will move entries in the connection/flow table to keep
it compact when other entries are removed. The moved entries need not have
the same type as the flow removed, so it needs to be able to handle moving
any type of flow. Therefore, move it to flow.c rather than being
purportedly TCP specific.

Both tcp.c and tcp_splice.c define CONN_IDX() variants to find the index
of their connection structures in the connection table, now become the
unified flow table. We can easily combine these into a common helper.
While we're there, add some trickery for some additional type safety.
They also define their own CONN() versions, which aren't so easily combined
since they need to return different types, but we can have them use a
common helper.
In the process, we standardise on always using an unsigned type to store
the connection / flow index, which makes more sense. tcp.c's conn_at_idx()
remains for now, but we change its parameter to unsigned to match. That in
turn means we can remove a check for negative values from it.

We want to generalise "connection" tracking to things other than true TCP
connections. Continue implenenting this by renaming the TCP connection
table to the "flow table" and moving it to flow.c. The definitions are
split between flow.h and flow_table.h - we need this separation to avoid
circular dependencies: the definitions in flow.h will be needed by many
headers using the flow mechanism, but flow_table.h needs all those protocol
specific headers in order to define the full flow table entry.

Currently TCP connections use a 1-bit selector, 'spliced', to determine the
rest of the contents of the structure. We want to generalise the TCP
connection table to other types of flows in other protocols. Make a start
on this by replacing the tcp_conn_common structure with a new flow_common
structure with an enum rather than a simple boolean indicating the type of
flow.

valgrind complains if we pass a NULL buffer to recv(), even if we use
MSG_TRUNC, in which case it's actually safe. For a long time we've had
a valgrind suppression for this. It singles out the recv() in
tcp_sock_consume(), the only place we use MSG_TRUNC.
However, tcp_sock_consume() only has a single caller, which makes it a
prime candidate for inlining. If inlined, it won't appear on the stack and
valgrind won't match the correct suppression.
It appears that certain compiler versions (for example gcc-13.2.1 in
Fedora 39) will inline this function even with the -O0 we use for valgrind
builds. This breaks the suppression leading to a spurious failure in the
tests.
There's not really any way to adjust the suppression itself without making
it overly broad (we don't want to match other recv() calls). So, as a hack
explicitly prevent inlining of this function when we're making a valgrind
build. To accomplish this add an explicit -DVALGRIND when making such a
build.

tcp_port_rebind() is desgined to be called from NS_CALL() and has two
disjoint cases: one where it enters the namespace (outbound forwards) and
one where it doesn't (inbound forwards).
We only actually need the NS_CALL() framing for the outbound case, for
inbound we can just call tcp_port_do_rebind() directly. So simplify
tcp_port_rebind() to tcp_port_rebind_outbound(), allowing us to eliminate
an awkward parameters structure.
With that done we can safely rename tcp_port_do_rebind() to
tcp_port_rebind() for brevity.

On the L2 tap side, we see TCP headers and know the TCP window that the
ultimate receiver is advertising. In order to avoid unnecessary buffering
within passt/pasta (or by the kernel on passt/pasta's behalf) we attempt
to advertise that window back to the original sock-side sender using
TCP_WINDOW_CLAMP.
However, TCP_WINDOW_CLAMP just doesn't work like this. Prior to kernel
commit 3aa7857fe1d7 ("tcp: enable mid stream window clamp"), it simply
had no effect on established sockets. After that commit, it does affect
established sockets but doesn't behave the way we need:
* It appears to be designed only to shrink the window, not to allow it to
re-expand.
* More importantly, that commit has a serious bug where if the
setsockopt() is made when the existing kernel advertised window for the
socket happens to be zero, it will now become locked at zero, stopping
any further data from being received on the socket.
Since this has never worked as intended, simply remove it. It might be
possible to re-implement the intended behaviour by manipulating SO_RCVBUF,
so we leave a comment to that effect.
This kernel bug is the underlying cause of both the linked passt bug and
the linked podman bug. We attempted to fix this before with passt commit
d3192f67 ("tcp: Force TCP_WINDOW_CLAMP before resetting STALLED flag").
However while that commit masked the bug for some cases, it didn't really
address the problem.

tcp_clamp_window() is _mostly_ about using TCP_WINDOW_CLAMP to control the
sock side advertised window, but it is also responsible for actually
updating the conn->wnd_from_tap value.
Rename to tcp_tap_window_update() to reflect that broader purpose, and pull
the logic that's not TCP_WINDOW_CLAMP related out to the front.

logmsg() takes printf like arguments, but because it's not a built in, the
compiler won't generate warnings if the format string and parameters don't
match. Enable those by using the format attribute.
Strictly speaking this is a gcc extension, but I believe it is also
supported by some other common compilers. We already use some other
attributes in various places. For now, just use it and we can worry about
compilers that don't support it if it comes up.
This exposes some warnings from existing callers, both in gcc and in
clang-tidy:
- Some are straight out bugs, which we correct
- It's occasionally useful to invoke the logging functions with an empty
string, which gcc objects to, so disable that specific warning in the
Makefile
- Strictly speaking the C standard requires that the parameter for a %p
be a (void *), not some other pointer type. That's only likely to cause
problems in practice on weird architectures with different sized
representations for pointers to different types. Nonetheless add the
casts to make it happy.
