mptcp: pm: split in-kernel PM specific code
Before this patch, the PM code was dispersed in different places:
- pm.c had common code for all PMs
- pm_netlink.c was supposed to be about the in-kernel PM, but also had
exported common Netlink helpers, NL events for PM userspace daemons,
etc. quite confusing.
To clarify the code, a reorganisation is suggested here, only by moving
code around to avoid confusions:
- pm_netlink.c now only contains common PM Netlink code:
- PM events: this code was already there
- shared helpers around Netlink code that were already there as well
- more shared Netlink commands code from pm.c will come after
- pm_kernel.c now contains only code that is specific to the in-kernel
PM. Now all functions are either called from:
- pm.c: events coming from the core, when this PM is being used
- pm_netlink.c: for shared Netlink commands
- mptcp_pm_gen.c: for Netlink commands specific to the in-kernel PM
- sockopt.c: for the exported counters per netns
- (while at it, a useless 'return;' spot by checkpatch at the end of
mptcp_pm_nl_set_flags_all, has been removed)
The code around the PM is now less confusing, which should help for the
maintenance in the long term.
This will certainly impact future backports, but because other cleanups
have already done recently, and more are coming to ease the addition of
a new path-manager controlled with BPF (struct_ops), doing that now
seems to be a good time. Also, many issues around the PM have been fixed
a few months ago while increasing the code coverage in the selftests, so
such big reorganisation can be done with more confidence now.
No behavioural changes intended.

mptcp: pm: in-kernel: add laminar endpoints
Currently, upon the reception of an ADD_ADDR (and when the fullmesh flag
is not used), the in-kernel PM will create new subflows using the local
address the routing configuration will pick.
It would be easier to pick local addresses from a selected list of
endpoints, and use it only once, than relying on routing rules.
Use case: both the client (C) and the server (S) have two addresses (a
and b). The client establishes the connection between C(a) and S(a).
Once established, the server announces its additional address S(b). Once
received, the client connects to it using its second address C(b).
Compared to a situation without the 'laminar' endpoint for C(b), the
client didn't use this address C(b) to establish a subflow to the
server's primary address S(a). So at the end, we have:
C S
C(a) --- S(a)
C(b) --- S(b)
In case of a 3rd address on each side (C(c) and S(c)), upon the
reception of an ADD_ADDR with S(c), the client should not pick C(b)
because it has already been used. C(c) should then be used.
Note that this situation is currently possible if C doesn't add any
endpoint, but configure the routing in order to pick C(b) for the route
to S(b), and pick C(c) for the route to S(c). That doesn't sound very
practical because it means knowing in advance the IP addresses that
will be used and announced by the server.
'laminar', like the idea of laminar flows: the different subflows don't
mix with each other on an endpoint, unlike the "turbulent" way traffic
is mixed by 'fullmesh'.
In the code, the new endpoint type is added. Similar to the other
subflow types, an MPTCP_INFO counter is added. While at it, hole are now
commented in struct mptcp_info, to remember next time that these holes
can no longer be used.

mptcp: pm: split in-kernel PM specific code
Before this patch, the PM code was dispersed in different places:
- pm.c had common code for all PMs
- pm_netlink.c was supposed to be about the in-kernel PM, but also had
exported common Netlink helpers, NL events for PM userspace daemons,
etc. quite confusing.
To clarify the code, a reorganisation is suggested here, only by moving
code around to avoid confusions:
- pm_netlink.c now only contains common PM Netlink code:
- PM events: this code was already there
- shared helpers around Netlink code that were already there as well
- more shared Netlink commands code from pm.c will come after
- pm_kernel.c now contains only code that is specific to the in-kernel
PM. Now all functions are either called from:
- pm.c: events coming from the core, when this PM is being used
- pm_netlink.c: for shared Netlink commands
- mptcp_pm_gen.c: for Netlink commands specific to the in-kernel PM
- sockopt.c: for the exported counters per netns
- (while at it, a useless 'return;' spot by checkpatch at the end of
mptcp_pm_nl_set_flags_all, has been removed)
The code around the PM is now less confusing, which should help for the
maintenance in the long term.
This will certainly impact future backports, but because other cleanups

mptcp: pm: split in-kernel PM specific code
Before this patch, the PM code was dispersed in different places:
- pm.c had common code for all PMs
- pm_netlink.c was supposed to be about the in-kernel PM, but also had
exported common Netlink helpers, NL events for PM userspace daemons,
etc. quite confusing.
To clarify the code, a reorganisation is suggested here, only by moving
code around to avoid confusions:
- pm_netlink.c now only contains common PM Netlink code:
- PM events: this code was already there
- shared helpers around Netlink code that were already there as well
- more shared Netlink commands code from pm.c will come after
- pm_kernel.c now contains only code that is specific to the in-kernel
PM. Now all functions are either called from:
- pm.c: events coming from the core, when this PM is being used
- pm_netlink.c: for shared Netlink commands
- mptcp_pm_gen.c: for Netlink commands specific to the in-kernel PM
- sockopt.c: for the exported counters per netns
- (while at it, a useless 'return;' spot by checkpatch at the end of
mptcp_pm_nl_set_flags_all, has been removed)

mptcp: pm: in-kernel: compare IDs instead of addresses
When receiving an ADD_ADDR right after the 3WHS, the connection will
switch to 'fully established'. It means the MPTCP worker will be called
to treat two events, in this order: ADD_ADDR_RECEIVED, PM_ESTABLISHED.
The MPTCP endpoints cannot have the ID 0, because it is reserved to the
address and port used by the initial subflow. To be able to deal with
this case in different places, msk->mpc_endpoint_id contains the
endpoint ID linked to the initial subflow. This variable was only set
when treating the first PM_ESTABLISHED event, after ADD_ADDR_RECEIVED.
That's why in fill_local_addresses_vec(), the endpoint addresses were
compared with the one of the initial subflow, instead of only comparing
the IDs.
Instead, msk->mpc_endpoint_id is now set when treating ADD_ADDR_RECEIVED
as well, if needed, then the IDs can be compared.
To be able to do so, the code doing that is now in a dedicated helper,
and called from the functions linked to the two actions.
While at it, mptcp_endp_get_local_id() has also been moved up, next to
this new helper, because they are linked, and to be able to use it in
fill_local_addresses_vec() in the next commit.

mptcp: pm: in-kernel: compare IDs instead of addresses
When receiving an ADD_ADDR right after the 3WHS, the connection will
switch to 'fully established'. It means the MPTCP worker will be called
to treat two events, in this order: ADD_ADDR_RECEIVED, PM_ESTABLISHED.
The MPTCP endpoints cannot have the ID 0, because it is reserved to the
address and port used by the initial subflow. To be able to deal with
this case in different places, msk->mpc_endpoint_id contains the
endpoint ID linked to the initial subflow. This variable was only set
when treating the first PM_ESTABLISHED event, after ADD_ADDR_RECEIVED.
That's why in fill_local_addresses_vec(), the endpoint addresses were
compared with the one of the initial subflow, instead of only comparing
the IDs.
Instead, msk->mpc_endpoint_id is now set when treating ADD_ADDR_RECEIVED
as well, if needed, then the IDs can be compared.
To be able to do so, the code doing that is now in a dedicated helper,
and called from the functions linked to the two actions.
While at it, mptcp_endp_get_local_id() has also been moved up, next to
this new helper, because they are linked, and to be able to use it in
fill_local_addresses_vec() in the next commit.

mptcp: pm: split in-kernel PM specific code
Before this patch, the PM code was dispersed in different places:
- pm.c had common code for all PMs
- pm_netlink.c was supposed to be about the in-kernel PM, but also had
exported common Netlink helpers, NL events for PM userspace daemons,
etc. quite confusing.
To clarify the code, a reorganisation is suggested here, only by moving
code around to avoid confusions:
- pm_netlink.c now only contains common PM Netlink code:
- PM events: this code was already there
- shared helpers around Netlink code that were already there as well
- more shared Netlink commands code from pm.c will come after
- pm_kernel.c now contains only code that is specific to the in-kernel
PM. Now all functions are either called from:
- pm.c: events coming from the core, when this PM is being used
- pm_netlink.c: for shared Netlink commands
- mptcp_pm_gen.c: for Netlink commands specific to the in-kernel PM
- sockopt.c: for the exported counters per netns
- (while at it, a useless 'return;' spot by checkpatch at the end of
mptcp_pm_nl_set_flags_all, has been removed)
The code around the PM is now less confusing, which should help for the
maintenance in the long term.
This will certainly impact future backports, but because other cleanups
have already done recently, and more are coming to ease the addition of
a new path-manager controlled with BPF (struct_ops), doing that now
seems to be a good time. Also, many issues around the PM have been fixed
a few months ago while increasing the code coverage in the selftests, so

The actions that caused that seem to be:
- Set the MPTCP subflows limit to 0
- Create an MPTCP endpoint with both the 'signal' and 'subflow' flags
- Create a new MPTCP connection from a different address: an ADD_ADDR
linked to the MPTCP endpoint will be sent ('signal' flag), but no
subflows is initiated ('subflow' flag)
- Remove the MPTCP endpoint
In this case, msk->pm.local_addr_used has been kept to 0 -- because no
subflows have been created -- but the corresponding bit in
msk->pm.id_avail_bitmap has been cleared when the ADD_ADDR has been
sent. This later causes a splat when removing the MPTCP endpoint because
msk->pm.local_addr_used has been kept to 0.
Now, if an endpoint has both the signal and subflow flags, but it is not
possible to create subflows because of the limits or the c-flag case,
then the local endpoint counter is still incremented: the endpoint is
used at the end. This avoids issues later when removing the endpoint and
calling __mark_subflow_endp_available(), which expects
msk->pm.local_addr_used to have been previously incremented if the
endpoint was marked as used according to msk->pm.id_avail_bitmap.
Note that signal_and_subflow variable is reset to false when the limits
and the c-flag case allows subflows creation. Also, local_addr_used is
only incremented for non ID0 subflows.

mptcp: pm: split in-kernel PM specific code
Before this patch, the PM code was dispersed in different places:
- pm.c had common code for all PMs
- pm_netlink.c was supposed to be about the in-kernel PM, but also had
exported common Netlink helpers, NL events for PM userspace daemons,
etc. quite confusing.
To clarify the code, a reorganisation is suggested here, only by moving
code around to avoid confusions:
- pm_netlink.c now only contains common PM Netlink code:
- PM events: this code was already there
- shared helpers around Netlink code that were already there as well
- more shared Netlink commands code from pm.c will come after
- pm_kernel.c now contains only code that is specific to the in-kernel
PM. Now all functions are either called from:
- pm.c: events coming from the core, when this PM is being used
- pm_netlink.c: for shared Netlink commands
- mptcp_pm_gen.c: for Netlink commands specific to the in-kernel PM
- sockopt.c: for the exported counters per netns
- (while at it, a useless 'return;' spot by checkpatch at the end of
mptcp_pm_nl_set_flags_all, has been removed)
The code around the PM is now less confusing, which should help for the
maintenance in the long term.
This will certainly impact future backports, but because other cleanups
have already done recently, and more are coming to ease the addition of
a new path-manager controlled with BPF (struct_ops), doing that now
seems to be a good time. Also, many issues around the PM have been fixed
a few months ago while increasing the code coverage in the selftests, so
such big reorganisation can be done with more confidence now.
No behavioural changes intended.

mptcp: pm: in-kernel: usable client side with C-flag
When servers set the C-flag in their MP_CAPABLE to tell clients not to
create subflows to the initial address and port, clients will likely not
use their other endpoints. That's because the in-kernel path-manager
uses the 'subflow' endpoints to create subflows only to the initial
address and port.
If the limits have not been modified to accept ADD_ADDR, the client
doesn't try to establish new subflows. If the limits accept ADD_ADDR,
the routing routes will be used to select the source IP.
The C-flag is typically set when the server is operating behind a legacy
Layer 4 load balancer, or using anycast IP address. Clients having their
different 'subflow' endpoints setup, don't end up creating multiple
subflows as expected, and causing some deployment issues.
A special case is then added here: when servers set the C-flag in the
MPC and directly sends an ADD_ADDR, this single ADD_ADDR is accepted.
The 'subflows' endpoints will then be used with this new remote IP and
port. This exception is only allowed when the ADD_ADDR is sent
immediately after the 3WHS, and makes the client switching to the 'fully
established' mode. After that, 'select_local_address()' will not be able
to find any subflows, because 'id_avail_bitmap' will be filled in
mptcp_pm_create_subflow_or_signal_addr(), when switching to 'fully
established' mode.

mptcp: pm: in-kernel: compare IDs instead of addresses
When receiving an ADD_ADDR right after the 3WHS, the connection will
switch to 'fully established'. It means the MPTCP worker will be called
to treat two events, in this order: ADD_ADDR_RECEIVED, PM_ESTABLISHED.
The MPTCP endpoints cannot have the ID 0, because it is reserved to the
address and port used by the initial subflow. To be able to deal with
this case in different places, msk->mpc_endpoint_id contains the
endpoint ID linked to the initial subflow. This variable was only set
when treating the first PM_ESTABLISHED event, after ADD_ADDR_RECEIVED.
That's why in fill_local_addresses_vec(), the endpoint addresses were
compared with the one of the initial subflow, instead of only comparing
the IDs.
Instead, msk->mpc_endpoint_id is now set when treating ADD_ADDR_RECEIVED
as well, if needed, then the IDs can be compared.
To be able to do so, the code doing that is now in a dedicated helper,
and called from the functions linked to the two actions.
While at it, mptcp_endp_get_local_id() has also been moved up, next to
this new helper, because they are linked, and to be able to use it in
fill_local_addresses_vec() in the next commit.

mptcp: pm: in-kernel: usable client side with C-flag
When servers set the C-flag in their MP_CAPABLE to tell clients not to
create subflows to the initial address and port, clients will likely not
use their other endpoints. That's because the in-kernel path-manager
uses the 'subflow' endpoints to create subflows only to the initial
address and port.
If the limits have not been modified to accept ADD_ADDR, the client
doesn't try to establish new subflows. If the limits accept ADD_ADDR,
the routing routes will be used to select the source IP.
The C-flag is typically set when the server is operating behind a legacy
Layer 4 load balancer, or using anycast IP address. Clients having their
different 'subflow' endpoints setup, don't end up creating multiple
subflows as expected, and causing some deployment issues.
A special case is then added here: when servers set the C-flag in the
MPC and directly sends an ADD_ADDR, this single ADD_ADDR is accepted.
The 'subflows' endpoints will then be used with this new remote IP and
port. This exception is only allowed when the ADD_ADDR is sent
immediately after the 3WHS, and makes the client switching to the 'fully
established' mode. After that, 'select_local_address()' will not be able
to find any subflows, because 'id_avail_bitmap' will be filled in
mptcp_pm_create_subflow_or_signal_addr(), when switching to 'fully
established' mode.

mptcp: pm: split in-kernel PM specific code
Before this patch, the PM code was dispersed in different places:
- pm.c had common code for all PMs
- pm_netlink.c was supposed to be about the in-kernel PM, but also had
exported common Netlink helpers, NL events for PM userspace daemons,
etc. quite confusing.
To clarify the code, a reorganisation is suggested here, only by moving
code around to avoid confusions:
- pm_netlink.c now only contains common PM Netlink code:
- PM events: this code was already there
- shared helpers around Netlink code that were already there as well
- more shared Netlink commands code from pm.c will come after
- pm_kernel.c now contains only code that is specific to the in-kernel
PM. Now all functions are either called from:
- pm.c: events coming from the core, when this PM is being used
- pm_netlink.c: for shared Netlink commands
- mptcp_pm_gen.c: for Netlink commands specific to the in-kernel PM
- sockopt.c: for the exported counters per netns
- (while at it, a useless 'return;' spot by checkpatch at the end of
mptcp_pm_nl_set_flags_all, has been removed)
The code around the PM is now less confusing, which should help for the
maintenance in the long term.
This will certainly impact future backports, but because other cleanups
have already done recently, and more are coming to ease the addition of
a new path-manager controlled with BPF (struct_ops), doing that now
seems to be a good time. Also, many issues around the PM have been fixed
a few months ago while increasing the code coverage in the selftests, so
such big reorganisation can be done with more confidence now.
No behavioural changes intended.

mptcp: pm: in-kernel: add laminar endpoints
Currently, upon the reception of an ADD_ADDR (and when the fullmesh flag
is not used), the in-kernel PM will create new subflows using the local
address the routing configuration will pick.
It would be easier to pick local addresses from a selected list of
endpoints, and use it only once, than relying on routing rules.
Use case: both the client (C) and the server (S) have two addresses (a
and b). The client establishes the connection between C(a) and S(a).
Once established, the server announces its additional address S(b). Once
received, the client connects to it using its second address C(b).
Compared to a situation without the 'laminar' endpoint for C(b), the
client didn't use this address C(b) to establish a subflow to the
server's primary address S(a). So at the end, we have:
C S
C(a) --- S(a)
C(b) --- S(b)
In case of a 3rd address on each side (C(c) and S(c)), upon the
reception of an ADD_ADDR with S(c), the client should not pick C(b)
because it has already been used. C(c) should then be used.
Note that this situation is currently possible if C doesn't add any
endpoint, but configure the routing in order to pick C(b) for the route
to S(b), and pick C(c) for the route to S(c). That doesn't sound very
practical because it means knowing in advance the IP addresses that
will be used and announced by the server.
'laminar', like the idea of laminar flows: the different subflows don't
mix with each other on an endpoint, unlike the "turbulent" way traffic
is mixed by 'fullmesh'.
In the code, the new endpoint type is added. Similar to the other
subflow types, an MPTCP_INFO counter is added. While at it, hole are now
commented in struct mptcp_info, to remember next time that these holes
can no longer be used.

mptcp: pm: in-kernel: compare IDs instead of addresses
When receiving an ADD_ADDR right after the 3WHS, the connection will
switch to 'fully established'. It means the MPTCP worker will be called
to treat two events, in this order: ADD_ADDR_RECEIVED, PM_ESTABLISHED.
The MPTCP endpoints cannot have the ID 0, because it is reserved to the
address and port used by the initial subflow. To be able to deal with
this case in different places, msk->mpc_endpoint_id contains the
endpoint ID linked to the initial subflow. This variable was only set
when treating the first PM_ESTABLISHED event, after ADD_ADDR_RECEIVED.
That's why in fill_local_addresses_vec(), the endpoint addresses were
compared with the one of the initial subflow, instead of only comparing
the IDs.
Instead, msk->mpc_endpoint_id is now set when treating ADD_ADDR_RECEIVED
as well, if needed, then the IDs can be compared.
To be able to do so, the code doing that is now in a dedicated helper,
and called from the functions linked to the two actions.
While at it, mptcp_endp_get_local_id() has also been moved up, next to
this new helper, because they are linked, and to be able to use it in
fill_local_addresses_vec() in the next commit.

mptcp: pm: split in-kernel PM specific code
Before this patch, the PM code was dispersed in different places:
- pm.c had common code for all PMs
- pm_netlink.c was supposed to be about the in-kernel PM, but also had
exported common Netlink helpers, NL events for PM userspace daemons,
etc. quite confusing.
To clarify the code, a reorganisation is suggested here, only by moving
code around to avoid confusions:
- pm_netlink.c now only contains common PM Netlink code:
- PM events: this code was already there
- shared helpers around Netlink code that were already there as well
- more shared Netlink commands code from pm.c will come after
- pm_kernel.c now contains only code that is specific to the in-kernel
PM. Now all functions are either called from:
- pm.c: events coming from the core, when this PM is being used
- pm_netlink.c: for shared Netlink commands
- mptcp_pm_gen.c: for Netlink commands specific to the in-kernel PM
- sockopt.c: for the exported counters per netns
- (while at it, a useless 'return;' spot by checkpatch at the end of
mptcp_pm_nl_set_flags_all, has been removed)
The code around the PM is now less confusing, which should help for the
maintenance in the long term.
This will certainly impact future backports, but because other cleanups
have already done recently, and more are coming to ease the addition of
a new path-manager controlled with BPF (struct_ops), doing that now
seems to be a good time. Also, many issues around the PM have been fixed
a few months ago while increasing the code coverage in the selftests, so
such big reorganisation can be done with more confidence now.
No behavioural changes intended.

mptcp: pm: in-kernel: compare IDs instead of addresses
When receiving an ADD_ADDR right after the 3WHS, the connection will
switch to 'fully established'. It means the MPTCP worker will be called
to treat two events, in this order: ADD_ADDR_RECEIVED, PM_ESTABLISHED.
The MPTCP endpoints cannot have the ID 0, because it is reserved to the
address and port used by the initial subflow. To be able to deal with
this case in different places, msk->mpc_endpoint_id contains the
endpoint ID linked to the initial subflow. This variable was only set
when treating the first PM_ESTABLISHED event, after ADD_ADDR_RECEIVED.
That's why in fill_local_addresses_vec(), the endpoint addresses were
compared with the one of the initial subflow, instead of only comparing
the IDs.
Instead, msk->mpc_endpoint_id is now set when treating ADD_ADDR_RECEIVED
as well, if needed, then the IDs can be compared.
To be able to do so, the code doing that is now in a dedicated helper,
and called from the functions linked to the two actions.
While at it, mptcp_endp_get_local_id() has also been moved up, next to
this new helper, because they are linked, and to be able to use it in
fill_local_addresses_vec() in the next commit.

Revert "mptcp: add needs_id for netlink appending addr"
This commit was originally adding the ability to add MPTCP endpoints
with ID 0 by accident. The in-kernel PM, handling MPTCP endpoints at the
net namespace level, is not supposed to handle endpoints with such ID,
because this ID 0 is reserved to the initial subflow, as mentioned in
the MPTCPv1 protocol [1], a per-connection setting.
Note that 'ip mptcp endpoint add id 0' stops early with an error, but
other tools might still request the in-kernel PM to create MPTCP
endpoints with this restricted ID 0.
In other words, it was wrong to call the mptcp_pm_has_addr_attr_id
helper to check whether the address ID attribute is set: if it was set
to 0, a new MPTCP endpoint would be created with ID 0, which is not
expected, and might cause various issues later.

mptcp: pm: split in-kernel PM specific code
Before this patch, the PM code was dispersed in different places:
- pm.c had common code for all PMs
- pm_netlink.c was supposed to be about the in-kernel PM, but also had
exported common Netlink helpers, NL events for PM userspace daemons,
etc. quite confusing.
To clarify the code, a reorganisation is suggested here, only by moving
code around to avoid confusions:
- pm_netlink.c now only contains common PM Netlink code:
- PM events: this code was already there
- shared helpers around Netlink code that were already there as well
- more shared Netlink commands code from pm.c will come after
- pm_kernel.c now contains only code that is specific to the in-kernel
PM. Now all functions are either called from:

Revert "mptcp: add needs_id for netlink appending addr"
This commit was originally adding the ability to add MPTCP endpoints
with ID 0 by accident. The in-kernel PM, handling MPTCP endpoints at the
net namespace level, is not supposed to handle endpoints with such ID,
because this ID 0 is reserved to the initial subflow, as mentioned in
the MPTCPv1 protocol [1], a per-connection setting.
Note that 'ip mptcp endpoint add id 0' stops early with an error, but
other tools might still request the in-kernel PM to create MPTCP
endpoints with this restricted ID 0.
In other words, it was wrong to call the mptcp_pm_has_addr_attr_id
helper to check whether the address ID attribute is set: if it was set
to 0, a new MPTCP endpoint would be created with ID 0, which is not
expected, and might cause various issues later.

mptcp: pm: in-kernel: add laminar endpoints
Currently, upon the reception of an ADD_ADDR (and when the fullmesh flag
is not used), the in-kernel PM will create new subflows using the local
address the routing configuration will pick.
It would be easier to pick local addresses from a selected list of
endpoints, and use it only once, than relying on routing rules.
Use case: both the client (C) and the server (S) have two addresses (a
and b). The client establishes the connection between C(a) and S(a).
Once established, the server announces its additional address S(b). Once
received, the client connects to it using its second address C(b).
Compared to a situation without the 'laminar' endpoint for C(b), the
client didn't use this address C(b) to establish a subflow to the
server's primary address S(a). So at the end, we have:
C S
C(a) --- S(a)
C(b) --- S(b)
In case of a 3rd address on each side (C(c) and S(c)), upon the
reception of an ADD_ADDR with S(c), the client should not pick C(b)
because it has already been used. C(c) should then be used.
Note that this situation is currently possible if C doesn't add any
endpoint, but configure the routing in order to pick C(b) for the route
to S(b), and pick C(c) for the route to S(c). That doesn't sound very
practical because it means knowing in advance the IP addresses that
will be used and announced by the server.
'laminar', like the idea of laminar flows: the different subflows don't
mix with each other on an endpoint, unlike the "turbulent" way traffic
is mixed by 'fullmesh'.
In the code, the new endpoint type is added. Similar to the other
subflow types, an MPTCP_INFO counter is added. While at it, hole are now
commented in struct mptcp_info, to remember next time that these holes
can no longer be used.

mptcp: pm: split in-kernel PM specific code
Before this patch, the PM code was dispersed in different places:
- pm.c had common code for all PMs
- pm_netlink.c was supposed to be about the in-kernel PM, but also had
exported common Netlink helpers, NL events for PM userspace daemons,
etc. quite confusing.
To clarify the code, a reorganisation is suggested here, only by moving
code around to avoid confusions:
- pm_netlink.c now only contains common PM Netlink code:
- PM events: this code was already there
- shared helpers around Netlink code that were already there as well
- more shared Netlink commands code from pm.c will come after
- pm_kernel.c now contains only code that is specific to the in-kernel
PM. Now all functions are either called from:
- pm.c: events coming from the core, when this PM is being used
- pm_netlink.c: for shared Netlink commands
- mptcp_pm_gen.c: for Netlink commands specific to the in-kernel PM
- sockopt.c: for the exported counters per netns
- (while at it, a useless 'return;' spot by checkpatch at the end of
mptcp_pm_nl_set_flags_all, has been removed)
The code around the PM is now less confusing, which should help for the
maintenance in the long term.
This will certainly impact future backports, but because other cleanups
have already done recently, and more are coming to ease the addition of
a new path-manager controlled with BPF (struct_ops), doing that now
seems to be a good time. Also, many issues around the PM have been fixed
a few months ago while increasing the code coverage in the selftests, so
such big reorganisation can be done with more confidence now.
No behavioural changes intended.

Revert "mptcp: add needs_id for netlink appending addr"
This commit was originally adding the ability to add MPTCP endpoints
with ID 0 by accident. The in-kernel PM, handling MPTCP endpoints at the
net namespace level, is not supposed to handle endpoints with such ID,
because this ID 0 is reserved to the initial subflow, as mentioned in
the MPTCPv1 protocol [1], a per-connection setting.
Note that 'ip mptcp endpoint add id 0' stops early with an error, but
other tools might still request the in-kernel PM to create MPTCP
endpoints with this restricted ID 0.
In other words, it was wrong to call the mptcp_pm_has_addr_attr_id
helper to check whether the address ID attribute is set: if it was set
to 0, a new MPTCP endpoint would be created with ID 0, which is not
expected, and might cause various issues later.

mptcp: pm: split in-kernel PM specific code
Before this patch, the PM code was dispersed in different places:
- pm.c had common code for all PMs
- pm_netlink.c was supposed to be about the in-kernel PM, but also had
exported common Netlink helpers, NL events for PM userspace daemons,
etc. quite confusing.
To clarify the code, a reorganisation is suggested here, only by moving
code around to avoid confusions:
- pm_netlink.c now only contains common PM Netlink code:
- PM events: this code was already there
- shared helpers around Netlink code that were already there as well
- more shared Netlink commands code from pm.c will come after
- pm_kernel.c now contains only code that is specific to the in-kernel
PM. Now all functions are either called from:
- pm.c: events coming from the core, when this PM is being used
- pm_netlink.c: for shared Netlink commands
- mptcp_pm_gen.c: for Netlink commands specific to the in-kernel PM
- sockopt.c: for the exported counters per netns
- (while at it, a useless 'return;' spot by checkpatch at the end of
mptcp_pm_nl_set_flags_all, has been removed)
The code around the PM is now less confusing, which should help for the
maintenance in the long term.
This will certainly impact future backports, but because other cleanups
have already done recently, and more are coming to ease the addition of
a new path-manager controlled with BPF (struct_ops), doing that now
seems to be a good time. Also, many issues around the PM have been fixed
a few months ago while increasing the code coverage in the selftests, so
such big reorganisation can be done with more confidence now.
No behavioural changes intended.

Revert "mptcp: add needs_id for netlink appending addr"
This commit was originally adding the ability to add MPTCP endpoints
with ID 0 by accident. The in-kernel PM, handling MPTCP endpoints at the
net namespace level, is not supposed to handle endpoints with such ID,
because this ID 0 is reserved to the initial subflow, as mentioned in
the MPTCPv1 protocol [1], a per-connection setting.
Note that 'ip mptcp endpoint add id 0' stops early with an error, but
other tools might still request the in-kernel PM to create MPTCP
endpoints with this restricted ID 0.
In other words, it was wrong to call the mptcp_pm_has_addr_attr_id
helper to check whether the address ID attribute is set: if it was set
to 0, a new MPTCP endpoint would be created with ID 0, which is not
expected, and might cause various issues later.

The actions that caused that seem to be:
- Create an MPTCP endpoint for address A without any flags
- Create a new MPTCP connection from address A
- Remove the MPTCP endpoint: the corresponding subflows will be removed
- Recreate the endpoint with the same ID, but with the subflow flag
- Change the same endpoint to add the fullmesh flag
In this case, msk->pm.local_addr_used has been kept to 0 as expected,
but the corresponding bit in msk->pm.id_avail_bitmap was still unset
after having removed the endpoint, causing the splat later on.
When removing an endpoint, the corresponding endpoint ID was only marked
as available for "signal" types with an announced address, plus all
"subflow" types, but not the other types like an endpoint corresponding
to the initial subflow. In these cases, re-creating an endpoint with the
same ID didn't signal/create anything. Here, adding the fullmesh flag
was creating the splat when calling __mark_subflow_endp_available() from
mptcp_pm_nl_fullmesh(), because msk->pm.local_addr_used was set to 0
while the ID was marked as used.
To fix this issue, the corresponding bit in msk->pm.id_avail_bitmap can
always be set as available when removing an MPTCP in-kernel endpoint. In
other words, moving the call to __set_bit() to do it in all cases,
except for "subflow" types where this bit is handled in a dedicated
helper.
Note: instead of adding a new spin_(un)lock_bh that would be taken in
all cases, do all the actions requiring the spin lock under the same
block.
This modification potentially fixes another issue reported by syzbot,
see [1]. But without a reproducer or more details about what exactly
happened before, it is hard to confirm.

mptcp: pm: split in-kernel PM specific code
Before this patch, the PM code was dispersed in different places:
- pm.c had common code for all PMs
- pm_netlink.c was supposed to be about the in-kernel PM, but also had
exported common Netlink helpers, NL events for PM userspace daemons,
etc. quite confusing.
To clarify the code, a reorganisation is suggested here, only by moving
code around to avoid confusions:
- pm_netlink.c now only contains common PM Netlink code:
- PM events: this code was already there
- shared helpers around Netlink code that were already there as well
- more shared Netlink commands code from pm.c will come after
- pm_kernel.c now contains only code that is specific to the in-kernel
PM. Now all functions are either called from:
- pm.c: events coming from the core, when this PM is being used
- pm_netlink.c: for shared Netlink commands
- mptcp_pm_gen.c: for Netlink commands specific to the in-kernel PM
- sockopt.c: for the exported counters per netns
- (while at it, a useless 'return;' spot by checkpatch at the end of
mptcp_pm_nl_set_flags_all, has been removed)
The code around the PM is now less confusing, which should help for the
maintenance in the long term.
This will certainly impact future backports, but because other cleanups
have already done recently, and more are coming to ease the addition of
a new path-manager controlled with BPF (struct_ops), doing that now
seems to be a good time. Also, many issues around the PM have been fixed
a few months ago while increasing the code coverage in the selftests, so
such big reorganisation can be done with more confidence now.
No behavioural changes intended.

mptcp: pm: split in-kernel PM specific code
Before this patch, the PM code was dispersed in different places:
- pm.c had common code for all PMs
- pm_netlink.c was supposed to be about the in-kernel PM, but also had
exported common Netlink helpers, NL events for PM userspace daemons,
etc. quite confusing.
To clarify the code, a reorganisation is suggested here, only by moving
code around to avoid confusions:
- pm_netlink.c now only contains common PM Netlink code:
- PM events: this code was already there
- shared helpers around Netlink code that were already there as well
- more shared Netlink commands code from pm.c will come after
- pm_kernel.c now contains only code that is specific to the in-kernel
PM. Now all functions are either called from:
- pm.c: events coming from the core, when this PM is being used
- pm_netlink.c: for shared Netlink commands
- mptcp_pm_gen.c: for Netlink commands specific to the in-kernel PM
- sockopt.c: for the exported counters per netns
- (while at it, a useless 'return;' spot by checkpatch at the end of
mptcp_pm_nl_set_flags_all, has been removed)
The code around the PM is now less confusing, which should help for the
maintenance in the long term.
This will certainly impact future backports, but because other cleanups
have already done recently, and more are coming to ease the addition of
a new path-manager controlled with BPF (struct_ops), doing that now
seems to be a good time. Also, many issues around the PM have been fixed
a few months ago while increasing the code coverage in the selftests, so
such big reorganisation can be done with more confidence now.
No behavioural changes intended.

mptcp: pm: in-kernel: add laminar endpoints
Currently, upon the reception of an ADD_ADDR (and when the fullmesh flag
is not used), the in-kernel PM will create new subflows using the local
address the routing configuration will pick.
It would be easier to pick local addresses from a selected list of
endpoints, and use it only once, than relying on routing rules.
Use case: both the client (C) and the server (S) have two addresses (a
and b). The client establishes the connection between C(a) and S(a).
Once established, the server announces its additional address S(b). Once
received, the client connects to it using its second address C(b).
Compared to a situation without the 'laminar' endpoint for C(b), the
client didn't use this address C(b) to establish a subflow to the
server's primary address S(a). So at the end, we have:
C S
C(a) --- S(a)
C(b) --- S(b)
In case of a 3rd address on each side (C(c) and S(c)), upon the
reception of an ADD_ADDR with S(c), the client should not pick C(b)
because it has already been used. C(c) should then be used.
Note that this situation is currently possible if C doesn't add any
endpoint, but configure the routing in order to pick C(b) for the route
to S(b), and pick C(c) for the route to S(c). That doesn't sound very
practical because it means knowing in advance the IP addresses that
will be used and announced by the server.
'laminar', like the idea of laminar flows: the different subflows don't
mix with each other on an endpoint, unlike the "turbulent" way traffic
is mixed by 'fullmesh'.
In the code, the new endpoint type is added. Similar to the other
subflow types, an MPTCP_INFO counter is added. While at it, hole are now
commented in struct mptcp_info, to remember next time that these holes
can no longer be used.

a new path-manager controlled with BPF (struct_ops), doing that now
seems to be a good time. Also, many issues around the PM have been fixed
a few months ago while increasing the code coverage in the selftests, so
such big reorganisation can be done with more confidence now.
No behavioural changes intended.

mptcp: pm: split in-kernel PM specific code
Before this patch, the PM code was dispersed in different places:
- pm.c had common code for all PMs
- pm_netlink.c was supposed to be about the in-kernel PM, but also had
exported common Netlink helpers, NL events for PM userspace daemons,
etc. quite confusing.
To clarify the code, a reorganisation is suggested here, only by moving
code around to avoid confusions:
- pm_netlink.c now only contains common PM Netlink code:
- PM events: this code was already there
- shared helpers around Netlink code that were already there as well
- more shared Netlink commands code from pm.c will come after
- pm_kernel.c now contains only code that is specific to the in-kernel
PM. Now all functions are either called from:
- pm.c: events coming from the core, when this PM is being used
- pm_netlink.c: for shared Netlink commands
- mptcp_pm_gen.c: for Netlink commands specific to the in-kernel PM
- sockopt.c: for the exported counters per netns
- (while at it, a useless 'return;' spot by checkpatch at the end of
mptcp_pm_nl_set_flags_all, has been removed)
The code around the PM is now less confusing, which should help for the
maintenance in the long term.
This will certainly impact future backports, but because other cleanups

mptcp: pm: in-kernel: add laminar endpoints
Currently, upon the reception of an ADD_ADDR (and when the fullmesh flag
is not used), the in-kernel PM will create new subflows using the local
address the routing configuration will pick.
It would be easier to pick local addresses from a selected list of
endpoints, and use it only once, than relying on routing rules.
Use case: both the client (C) and the server (S) have two addresses (a
and b). The client establishes the connection between C(a) and S(a).
Once established, the server announces its additional address S(b). Once
received, the client connects to it using its second address C(b).
Compared to a situation without the 'laminar' endpoint for C(b), the
client didn't use this address C(b) to establish a subflow to the
server's primary address S(a). So at the end, we have:
C S
C(a) --- S(a)
C(b) --- S(b)
In case of a 3rd address on each side (C(c) and S(c)), upon the
reception of an ADD_ADDR with S(c), the client should not pick C(b)
because it has already been used. C(c) should then be used.
Note that this situation is currently possible if C doesn't add any
endpoint, but configure the routing in order to pick C(b) for the route
to S(b), and pick C(c) for the route to S(c). That doesn't sound very
practical because it means knowing in advance the IP addresses that
will be used and announced by the server.
'laminar', like the idea of laminar flows: the different subflows don't
mix with each other on an endpoint, unlike the "turbulent" way traffic
is mixed by 'fullmesh'.
In the code, the new endpoint type is added. Similar to the other
subflow types, an MPTCP_INFO counter is added. While at it, hole are now
commented in struct mptcp_info, to remember next time that these holes
can no longer be used.

etc. quite confusing.
To clarify the code, a reorganisation is suggested here, only by moving
code around to avoid confusions:
- pm_netlink.c now only contains common PM Netlink code:

- shared helpers around Netlink code that were already there as well
- more shared Netlink commands code from pm.c will come after
- pm_kernel.c now contains only code that is specific to the in-kernel
PM. Now all functions are either called from:
- pm.c: events coming from the core, when this PM is being used
- pm_netlink.c: for shared Netlink commands
- mptcp_pm_gen.c: for Netlink commands specific to the in-kernel PM
- sockopt.c: for the exported counters per netns
- (while at it, a useless 'return;' spot by checkpatch at the end of
mptcp_pm_nl_set_flags_all, has been removed)
The code around the PM is now less confusing, which should help for the
maintenance in the long term.
This will certainly impact future backports, but because other cleanups
have already done recently, and more are coming to ease the addition of
a new path-manager controlled with BPF (struct_ops), doing that now
seems to be a good time. Also, many issues around the PM have been fixed
a few months ago while increasing the code coverage in the selftests, so
such big reorganisation can be done with more confidence now.
No behavioural changes intended.

PM. Now all functions are either called from:
- pm.c: events coming from the core, when this PM is being used
- pm_netlink.c: for shared Netlink commands
- mptcp_pm_gen.c: for Netlink commands specific to the in-kernel PM
- sockopt.c: for the exported counters per netns
- (while at it, a useless 'return;' spot by checkpatch at the end of
mptcp_pm_nl_set_flags_all, has been removed)
The code around the PM is now less confusing, which should help for the
maintenance in the long term.
This will certainly impact future backports, but because other cleanups
have already done recently, and more are coming to ease the addition of
a new path-manager controlled with BPF (struct_ops), doing that now
seems to be a good time. Also, many issues around the PM have been fixed
a few months ago while increasing the code coverage in the selftests, so
such big reorganisation can be done with more confidence now.
No behavioural changes intended.

mptcp: pm: split in-kernel PM specific code
Before this patch, the PM code was dispersed in different places:
- pm.c had common code for all PMs
- pm_netlink.c was supposed to be about the in-kernel PM, but also had
exported common Netlink helpers, NL events for PM userspace daemons,
etc. quite confusing.
To clarify the code, a reorganisation is suggested here, only by moving
code around to avoid confusions:
- pm_netlink.c now only contains common PM Netlink code:
- PM events: this code was already there
- shared helpers around Netlink code that were already there as well
- more shared Netlink commands code from pm.c will come after
- pm_kernel.c now contains only code that is specific to the in-kernel
PM. Now all functions are either called from:
- pm.c: events coming from the core, when this PM is being used
- pm_netlink.c: for shared Netlink commands
- mptcp_pm_gen.c: for Netlink commands specific to the in-kernel PM
