* treewide: Packet abstraction with mandatory boundary checksStefano Brivio2022-03-291-105/+111
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Implement a packet abstraction providing boundary and size checks based on packet descriptors: packets stored in a buffer can be queued into a pool (without storage of its own), and data can be retrieved referring to an index in the pool, specifying offset and length. Checks ensure data is not read outside the boundaries of buffer and descriptors, and that packets added to a pool are within the buffer range with valid offset and indices. This implies a wider rework: usage of the "queueing" part of the abstraction mostly affects tap_handler_{passt,pasta}() functions and their callees, while the "fetching" part affects all the guest or tap facing implementations: TCP, UDP, ICMP, ARP, NDP, DHCP and DHCPv6 handlers.

* tcp_splice: Close sockets right away on high number of open filesStefano Brivio2022-03-291-6/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | We can't take for granted that the hard limit for open files is big enough as to allow to delay closing sockets to a timer. Store the value of RTLIMIT_NOFILE we set at start, and use it to understand if we're approaching the limit with pending, spliced TCP connections. If that's the case, close sockets right away as soon as they're not needed, instead of deferring this task to a timer. Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>
* tcp, udp, util: Enforce 24-bit limit on socket numbersStefano Brivio2022-03-291-0/+8
| | | | | | | This should never happen, but there are no formal guarantees: ensure socket numbers are below SOCKET_MAX. Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>
* tcp: Refactor to use events instead of states, split out spliced implementationStefano Brivio2022-03-281-0/+859
Using events and flags instead of states makes the implementation much more straightforward: actions are mostly centered on events that occurred on the connection rather than states. An example is given by the ESTABLISHED_SOCK_FIN_SENT and FIN_WAIT_1_SOCK_FIN abominations: we don't actually care about which side started closing the connection to handle closing of connection halves. Split out the spliced implementation, as it has very little in common with the "regular" TCP path. Refactor things here and there to improve clarity. Add helpers to trace where resets and flag settings come from. No functional changes intended. Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>
