From adc9613ff66c26ebaff9814973181ac178beb90b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Howells Date: Sat, 21 May 2022 08:45:55 +0100 Subject: afs: Adjust ACK interpretation to try and cope with NAT If a client's address changes, say if it is NAT'd, this can disrupt an in progress operation. For most operations, this is not much of a problem, but StoreData can be different as some servers modify the target file as the data comes in, so if a store request is disrupted, the file can get corrupted on the server. The problem is that the server doesn't recognise packets that come after the change of address as belonging to the original client and will bounce them, either by sending an OUT_OF_SEQUENCE ACK to the apparent new call if the packet number falls within the initial sequence number window of a call or by sending an EXCEEDS_WINDOW ACK if it falls outside and then aborting it. In both cases, firstPacket will be 1 and previousPacket will be 0 in the ACK information. Fix this by the following means: (1) If a client call receives an EXCEEDS_WINDOW ACK with firstPacket as 1 and previousPacket as 0, assume this indicates that the server saw the incoming packets from a different peer and thus as a different call. Fail the call with error -ENETRESET. (2) Also fail the call if a similar OUT_OF_SEQUENCE ACK occurs if the first packet has been hard-ACK'd. If it hasn't been hard-ACK'd, the ACK packet will cause it to get retransmitted, so the call will just be repeated. (3) Make afs_select_fileserver() treat -ENETRESET as a straight fail of the operation. (4) Prioritise the error code over things like -ECONNRESET as the server did actually respond. (5) Make writeback treat -ENETRESET as a retryable error and make it redirty all the pages involved in a write so that the VM will retry. Note that there is still a circumstance that I can't easily deal with: if the operation is fully received and processed by the server, but the reply is lost due to address change. There's no way to know if the op happened. We can examine the server, but a conflicting change could have been made by a third party - and we can't tell the difference. In such a case, a message like: kAFS: vnode modified {100058:146266} b7->b8 YFS.StoreData64 (op=2646a) will be logged to dmesg on the next op to touch the file and the client will reset the inode state, including invalidating clean parts of the pagecache.
