* lib: Move incoming FRCT handling to own threadDimitri Staessens2022-03-301-24/+67
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The application will now handle incoming FRCT packets even if the application never reads data from the flow (for instance servers). To do this, it reserves an fset_t (id 0). When an FRCT-enabled flow is created, it is automatically added to this fset. An rx thread will listen for incoming events and perform necessary actions on the flow if needed. If the FRCT flow is added to another user fset, it will be handled by that user fset (and if the flow is removed from a user fset, it will be re-added to the set with id 0 to be handled by the rx_flow thread. The flow monitoring is handled by the same thread, replacing the previous monitoring thread.

* lib: Iterate over monitored flowsDimitri Staessens2022-03-301-49/+49
| | | | | | | | | | Now the instance keeps all flows for an application in a linked list to easily iterate over all allocated flows, which is needed by the keepalive monitoring. This is more efficient that tracking min and max fd. Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens <dimitri@ouroboros.rocks> Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders <sander@ouroboros.rocks>

* lib: Fix filtering encrypted packetsDimitri Staessens2022-03-302-54/+54
| | | | | | | | | | | | The frcti_filter was reading raw data from the buffers, causing the frcti_rcv to operate directly on encrypted packets. It decrypt and filter for invalid packets. I moved the function from frct to the fqueue implementation and renamed it fqueue_filter as it filters fqueues. Should be extended to filter out keepalives on non-FRCT flows, as these will now still cause spurious wakeups.

* lib: Add np1_flow_read and np1_flow_write callsDimitri Staessens2022-03-301-11/+80
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Reading/writing to (N + 1)-flows from the IPCP was using a raw QoS flow to bypass some functions in the ipcp_flow_read call. But this call was broken for keepalive packets. Fixing the ipcp_flow_read call for (N - 1) flows causes the IPCPs to drop 0-byte keepalive packets coming from (N + 1) client flows. >From now on, there is a dedicated call for (N + 1) reads/writes from the IPCPs that's more efficient and cleaner. The (N + 1) flow internal QoS is now also defaulted to a qos_np1 qosspec, instead of tampering with the qosspec requested by the (N + 1) client.

* lib: Move timerwheel processing to its own threadDimitri Staessens2022-03-303-27/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is the first step moving away from scheduling the FRCT and flow monitoring functions as part of the IPC calls (flow_read / flow_write / fevent) and towards the more scalable (and far less complicated) implementation to take care of these functions in separate threads. If a process creates the first flow that requires FRCT, it will spin up a thread to process events on the timerwheel (retransmissions and delayed ACKs). This single thread lives until the last flow with FRCT is deallocated. Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens <dimitri@ouroboros.rocks> Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders <sander@ouroboros.rocks>

| | | | | | | | | | | | Reading packets from the rbuff and checking their validity (non-zero size, pass crc check, pass decryption) is now extracted into a function.

* lib: Non-configurable delayed acks in FRCPDimitri Staessens2022-03-304-30/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It doesn't really make sense to manually and one-sidedly configure the timeout of delayed acknowledgements, as setting it too high upsets the peer's sRTT estimates. Even worse, it also causes a lot of spurious retransmissions if it exceeds the sRTT mean deviation calculated by the receiver. Compensating on bare acknowledgment for the ack delay could improve the RTT estimate deviation, but not the spurious retransmissions if it was set too high. This sets the delayed ack to wait for a single RTT mean deviation. Probably needs more tweaking to further reduce differences between the RTT estimates at the sender and receiver, e.g. compensate the RTT estimate for delayed acks, or increase the RTO to add 8 mdevs to sRTT instead of 4. However, it looks like the mdev estimate is the trickiest one to get to sync, not the RTT average. Linux reduces the sample weight for mdev from 1/4 to 1/32 in some cases, will give that a shot some day too to see if that further align sRTT estimates. In any case, this patch already improves things a lot. Also fixes a bug where the sender was sending acknowlegments on the first packets in flight for the 0 sequence number. The receiver activity was measured in seconds but compared to a timeout value in nanoseconds. There's still a lot of spurious retransmissions that start after actual packet loss occurs, I'm still investigating what causes it.

* lib: Fix retransmission schedulingDimitri Staessens2022-03-161-72/+60
| | | | | | | | | | | | | There still were a couple of bugs in the timerwheel. If the future schedule was coinciding with the slot currently being processed (i.e. exactly RXMQ_SLOTS in the future), the list_add_tail caused an infinite loop. Another bug was causing the slots at higher levels to be processed too soon. Retransmissions should now schedule correctly.

* lib: Fix buffer allocation when retransmitting0.19.0Dimitri Staessens2022-03-114-18/+47
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The timerwheel was retransmitting packets and the error check for negative values of the rbuff allocation was instead checking for non-zero values, causing a buffer allocation to succeed but the program to continue down the unhappy path leaving that packet stuck in the buffer unattended. Also fixes wrongly scheduled retransmissions that cause packet storms. FRCP is much more stable now. Still needs some work for high bandwidth-delay products (fast-retransmit).

* ipdpd: Pass MPL to application at flow_allocationDimitri Staessens2022-03-083-8/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | The maximum packet lifetime (MPL) is a property of the flow that needs to be passed to the reliable transmission protocol (FRCP) for its correct operation. Previously, the value of MPL was set fixed as one of the (fixed) Delta-t parameters. This patch makes the MPL a property of the layer, and it can now be set per layer-type at build time.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | On exit of the IRMd all flows will now be flagged as down, so external applications will not hang anymore. Note: reads keep work from flows that are down until there are no more remaining packets in the buffer, but no more packets can be written. When the RIB is used, the external application may exit a bit later than the IRMd, so I added a brief sleep before the IRMd tries to remove the fuse main directory.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds flow liveness monitoring for flows, with a fixed timeout of 120s. I will make it configurable at flow allocation later on (timeout needs to be communicated to the peer). If one peer dies, or doesn't call any IPC calls (flow_write/flow_read/fevent) it will stop sending keepalives and the other peer's read/writes will error on an -EFLOWDOWN after the timeout expires. Packets without a payload (0 length packets) are interpreted as keepalive packets for the flow. They can be sent from any application, but they will not trigger a message read at the receiver side (0 as a return value on flow_read indicates a previous partial read has completed at exactly the buffer size).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The fccntl call FRCTSFLAGS was using a pointer to a flags so set flags, which should just be a regular uint16_t. For instance, the FRCTLINGER flags can now be turned off using fccntl(fd, FRCTSFLAGS, FRCTFRESCNTL | FRCTFRTX) leaving only resource control (flow control, FRCTFRESCNTL) and retransmission enabled.

The previous code tried to unmount the generic mount and then remount under the ipcp name, but it often failed because fuse_mount() is asynchronous and the mount was not up at the time of the unmount() call.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The read functions for the RIB will now receive the full path, instead of only the entry name. For IPCPs, we organized the RIB in an /<ipcp>/<component>/entries structure with a directory per component, so we don't need the full path at this point. For process flow information, it's a lot more convenient to organize it the following way /<pid>/<fd>/stat We can then register/unregister the flow descriptor when the frct instance is created, and for getting the stats, we'd know the flow descriptor from the fuse file path. If we would create a file per flow instead of a directory per flow, something like /<pid>/flows/<fd> we'd need to do additional bookkeeping to list the contents of that directory (we would need to track all flows with an active FRCT instance), that fuse knows because it tracks the directories.

* ipcpd: Single UDP port for the ipcpd-udp0.18.0Dimitri Staessens2021-01-032-8/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The UDP layer will now use a single (configurable) UDP port, default 3435. This makes it easer to allocate flows as a client from behind a NAT firewall without having to configure port forwarding rules. So basically, from now on Ouroboros traffic is transported over a bidirectional <src><port>:<dst><port> UDP tunnel. The reason for not using/allowing different client/server ports is that it would require reading from different sockets using select() or something similar, but since we need the EID anyway (mgmt packets arrive on the same server UDP port), there's not a lot of benefit in doing it. Now the operation is similar to the ipcpd-eth, with the port somewhat functioning as a "layer name", where in UDP, the Ethertype functions as a "layer name".
