This patch puts the life of a midcomms node the same as a lowcomms
connection. The lowcomms connection lifetime was changed by commit
6f0b0b5d7a ("fs: dlm: remove dlm_node_addrs lookup list"). In the
future the midcomms node instances can be merged with lowcomms
connection structure as the lifetime is the same and states can be
controlled over values or flags.
Before midcomms nodes were generated during version detection. This is
not necessary anymore when the nodes are created when the cluster
manager configures DLM via configfs. When a midcomms node is created over
configfs it well set DLM_VERSION_NOT_SET as version. This indicates that
the version of the midcomms node is still unknown and need to be probed
via certain rcom messages.

This patch changes the time when we sending an ack back to tell the
other side it can free some message because it is arrived on the
receiver node, due random reconnects e.g. TCP resets this is handled as
well on application layer to not let DLM run into a deadlock state.
The current handling has the following problems:
1. We end in situations that we only send an ack back message of 16
bytes out and no other messages. Whereas DLM has logic to combine
so much messages as it can in one send() socket call. This behaviour
can be discovered by "trace-cmd start -e dlm_recv" and observing the
ret field being 16 bytes.
2. When processing of DLM messages will never end because we receive a
lot of messages, we will not send an ack back as it happens when
the processing loop ends.
This patch introduces a likely and unlikely threshold case. The likely
case will send an ack back on a transmit path if the threshold is
triggered of amount of processed upper layer protocol. This will solve
issue 1 because it will be send when another normal DLM message will be
sent. It solves issue 2 because it is not part of the processing loop.
There is however a unlikely case, the unlikely case has a bigger
threshold and will be triggered when we only receive messages and do not
sent any message back. This case avoids that the sending node will keep
a lot of message for a long time as we send sometimes ack backs to tell
the sender to finally release messages.
The atomic cmpxchg() is there to provide a atomically ack send with
reset of the upper layer protocol delivery counter.

the atomic_inc() depends on a if coniditional and this should be handled

This patch reverts commit 2c3fa6ae4d ("dlm: check required context
while close"). The function dlm_midcomms_close(), which will call later
dlm_lowcomms_close(), is called when the cluster manager tells the node
got fenced which means on midcomms/lowcomms layer to disconnect the node
from the cluster communication. The node can rejoin the cluster later.
This patch was ensuring no new message were able to be triggered when we
are in the close() function context. This was done by checking if the
lockspace has been stopped. However there is a missing check that we
only need to check specific lockspaces where the fenced node is member
of. This is currently complicated because there is no way to easily
check if a node is part of a specific lockspace without stopping the
recovery. For now we just revert this commit as it is just a check to
finding possible leaks of stopping lockspaces before close() is called.

The current dlm version detection is very complex due to backwards
compatablilty with earlier dlm protocol versions. It takes some time to
detect if a peer node has a specific DLM version. If it's not detected,
we just cut the socket connection. There could be cases where the local
node has not detected the version yet, but the peer node has. In these
cases, we are trying to shutdown the dlm connection with a FIN/ACK message
exchange to be sure the other peer is ready to shutdown the connection on
dlm application level. However this mechanism is only available on DLM
protocol version 3.2 and we need to be sure the DLM version is detected
before.
To make it more robust we introduce a a "best effort" wait to wait for the
version detection before shutdown the dlm connection. This need to be
done before the kthread recoverd for recovery handling is stopped,
because recovery handling will trigger enough messages to have a version
detection going on.
It is a corner case which was detected by modprobe dlm_locktroture module
and rmmod dlm_locktorture module directly afterwards (in a looping
behaviour). In practice probably nobody would leave a lockspace immediately
after joining it.

hash and lowcomms connection hash are not equal, but we need to guarantee
that the lowcomms are all closed on a last release of a dlm lockspace,
when a shutdown is invoked. This patch guarantees that we always close
all sockets managed by the lowcomms connection hash, and calls shutdown
for the last message sent. This ensures we don't cut the socket, which
could cause the peer to get a connection reset.
In future we should try to merge the midcomms/lowcomms hashes into one
hash and not handle both in separate hashes.

This patch is rework of lowcomms handling, the main goal was here to
handle recvmsg() and sendpage() to run parallel. Parallel in two senses:
1. per connection and 2. that recvmsg()/sendpage() doesn't block each
other.
Currently recvmsg()/sendpage() cannot run parallel because two
workqueues "dlm_recv" and "dlm_send" are ordered workqueues. That means
only one work item can be executed. The amount of queue items will be
increased about the amount of nodes being inside the cluster. The current
two workqueues for sending and receiving can also block each other if the
same connection is executed at the same time in dlm_recv and dlm_send
workqueue because a per connection mutex for the socket handling.
To make it more parallel we introduce one "dlm_io" workqueue which is
not an ordered workqueue, the amount of workers are not limited. Due
per connection flags SEND/RECV pending we schedule workers ordered per
connection and per send and receive task. To get rid of the mutex
blocking same workers to do socket handling we switched to a semaphore
which handles socket operations as read lock and sock releases as write
operations, to prevent sock_release() being called while the socket is
being used.
There might be more optimization removing the semaphore and replacing it
with other synchronization mechanism, however due other circumstances
e.g. othercon behaviour it seems complicated to doing this change. I
added comments to remove the othercon handling and moving to a different
synchronization mechanism as this is done. We need to do that to the next
dlm major version upgrade because it is not backwards compatible with the
current connect mechanism.
The processing of dlm messages need to be still handled by a ordered
workqueue. An dlm_process ordered workqueue was introduced which gets
filled by the receive worker. This is probably the next bottleneck of
DLM but the application can't currently parse dlm messages parallel. A
comment was introduced to lift the workqueue context of dlm processing
in a non-sleepable softirq to get messages processing done fast.

Since commit 489d8e559c ("fs: dlm: add reliable connection if
reconnect") we have functionality like TCP offers for half-closed
sockets on dlm application protocol layer. This feature is required
because the cluster manager events about leaving resource memberships
can be locally already occurred but other cluster nodes having a pending
leaving membership over the cluster manager protocol happening. In this
time the local dlm node already shutdown it's connection and don't
transmit anymore any new dlm messages, but however it still needs to be
able to accept dlm messages because the pending leave membership request
of the cluster manager protocol which the dlm kernel implementation has
no control about it.
We have this functionality on the application for two reasons, the main
reason is that SCTP does not support such functionality on socket
layer. But we can do it inside application layer.
Another small issue is that this feature is broken in the TCP world
because some NAT devices does not implement such functionality
correctly. This is the same reason why the reliable connection session
layer in DLM exists. We give up on middle devices in the networking
which sends e.g. TCP resets out. In DLM we cannot have any message
dropping and we ensure it over a session layer that it can't happen.
Back to the half-closed grace shutdown handling. It's not necessary
anymore to do it on socket layer (which is only support for TCP sockets)
because we do it on application layer. This patch removes this handling,
if there are still issues then we have a problem on the application
layer for such handling.

In DLM when we send a dlm message it is easy to add the lock resource
name, but additional lookup is required when to trace the receive
message side. The idea here is to move the lookup work to the user by
using a lookup to find the right send message with recv message. As note
DLM can't drop any message which is guaranteed by a special session
layer.
For doing the lookup a 3 tupel is required as an unique identification
which is dst nodeid, src nodeid and sequence number. This patch adds the
destination nodeid to the dlm message trace points. The source nodeid is
given by the h_nodeid field inside the header.

This patch adds tracepoints for send and recv cases of dlm messages and

follow dlm messages on a per lock basis. In case of recv message the
resource name can be extracted by follow the send message sequence
number.
The dlm message DLM_MSG_PURGE doesn't belong to a lock request and will
not set the resource name in a dlm_message trace. The same for all rcom
messages.
There is additional handling required for this debugging functionality
which is tried to be small as possible. Also the midcomms layer gets

This patch introduce to make a tcp lowcomms connection reliable even if
reconnects occurs. This is done by an application layer re-transmission
handling and sequence numbers in dlm protocols. There are three new dlm
commands:
DLM_OPTS:
This will encapsulate an existing dlm message (and rcom message if they
don't have an own application side re-transmission handling). As optional
handling additional tlv's (type length fields) can be appended. This can
be for example a sequence number field. However because in DLM_OPTS the
lockspace field is unused and a sequence number is a mandatory field it
isn't made as a tlv and we put the sequence number inside the lockspace
id. The possibility to add optional options are still there for future
purposes.
DLM_ACK:
Just a dlm header to acknowledge the receive of a DLM_OPTS message to
it's sender.
DLM_FIN:
This provides a 4 way handshake for connection termination inclusive
support for half-closed connections. It's provided on application layer
because SCTP doesn't support half-closed sockets, the shutdown() call
can interrupted by e.g. TCP resets itself and a hard logic to implement
it because the othercon paradigm in lowcomms. The 4-way termination
handshake also solve problems to synchronize peer EOF arrival and that
the cluster manager removes the peer in the node membership handling of
DLM. In some cases messages can be still transmitted in this time and we
need to wait for the node membership event.
To provide a reliable connection the node will retransmit all
unacknowledges message to it's peer on reconnect. The receiver will then
filtering out the next received message and drop all messages which are
duplicates.
As RCOM_STATUS and RCOM_NAMES messages are the first messages which are
exchanged and they have they own re-transmission handling, there exists
logic that these messages must be first. If these messages arrives we
store the dlm version field. This handling is on DLM 3.1 and after this
patch 3.2 the same. A backwards compatibility handling has been added
which seems to work on tests without tcpkill, however it's not recommended
to use DLM 3.1 and 3.2 at the same time, because DLM 3.2 tries to fix long

This patch adds an additional check for minimum dlm header size which is
an invalid dlm message and signals a broken stream. A msglen field cannot
be less than the dlm header size because the field is inclusive header
lengths.

This patch reworks the current receive handling of dlm. As I tried to
change the send handling to fix reorder issues I took a look into the
receive handling and simplified it, it works as the following:
Each connection has a preallocated receive buffer with a minimum length of
4096. On receive, the upper layer protocol will process all dlm message
until there is not enough data anymore. If there exists "leftover" data at
the end of the receive buffer because the dlm message wasn't fully received
it will be copied to the begin of the preallocated receive buffer. Next
receive more data will be appended to the previous "leftover" data and
processing will begin again.
This will remove a lot of code of the current mechanism. Inside the
processing functionality we will ensure with a memmove() that the dlm
message should be memory aligned. To have a dlm message always started
at the beginning of the buffer will reduce some amount of memmove()
calls because src and dest pointers are the same.
The cluster attribute "buffer_size" becomes a new meaning, it's now the
size of application layer receive buffer size. If this is changed during
runtime the receive buffer will be reallocated. It's important that the
receive buffer size has at minimum the size of the maximum possible dlm
message size otherwise the received message cannot be placed inside
the receive buffer size.
