2016-08-17kcm: Use stream parserTom Herbert
Adapt KCM to use the stream parser. This mostly involves removing the RX handling and setting up the strparser using the interface. Signed-off-by: Tom Herbert <tom@herbertland.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2016-03-10kcm: mark helper functions inlineArnd Bergmann
The stub helper functions for the newly added kcm_proc_init/exit interfaces are defined as 'static' in a header file, which leads to build warnings for each file that includes them without calling them: include/net/kcm.h:183:12: error: 'kcm_proc_init' defined but not used [-Werror=unused-function] include/net/kcm.h:184:13: error: 'kcm_proc_exit' defined but not used [-Werror=unused-function] This marks the two functions as 'static inline' instead, which avoids the warnings and is obviously what was meant here.

2016-03-09kcm: Add receive message timeoutTom Herbert
This patch adds receive timeout for message assembly on the attached TCP sockets. The timeout is set when a new messages is started and the whole message has not been received by TCP (not in the receive queue). If the completely message is subsequently received the timer is cancelled, if the timer expires the RX side is aborted. The timeout value is taken from the socket timeout (SO_RCVTIMEO) that is set on a TCP socket (i.e. set by get sockopt before attaching a TCP socket to KCM.

2016-03-09kcm: Add memory limit for receive message constructionTom Herbert
Message assembly is performed on the TCP socket. This is logically equivalent of an application that performs a peek on the socket to find out how much memory is needed for a receive buffer. The receive socket buffer also provides the maximum message size which is checked. The receive algorithm is something like: 1) Receive the first skbuf for a message (or skbufs if multiple are needed to determine message length). 2) Check the message length against the number of bytes in the TCP receive queue (tcp_inq()). - If all the bytes of the message are in the queue (incluing the skbuf received), then proceed with message assembly (it should complete with the tcp_read_sock) - Else, mark the psock with the number of bytes needed to complete the message. 3) In TCP data ready function, if the psock indicates that we are waiting for the rest of the bytes of a messages, check the number of queued bytes against that. - If there are still not enough bytes for the message, just return - Else, clear the waiting bytes and proceed to receive the skbufs. The message should now be received in one tcp_read_sock Signed-off-by: Tom Herbert <tom@herbertland.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2016-03-09kcm: Add statistics and proc interfacesTom Herbert
This patch adds various counters for KCM. These include counters for messages and bytes received or sent, as well as counters for number of attached/unattached TCP sockets and other error or edge events. The statistics are exposed via a proc interface. /proc/net/kcm provides statistics per KCM socket and per psock (attached TCP sockets). /proc/net/kcm_stats provides aggregate statistics.

2016-03-09kcm: Kernel Connection Multiplexor moduleTom Herbert
This module implements the Kernel Connection Multiplexor. Kernel Connection Multiplexor (KCM) is a facility that provides a message based interface over TCP for generic application protocols. With KCM an application can efficiently send and receive application protocol messages over TCP using datagram sockets.
