From: Menglong Dong <[email protected]>

FB_MTU is used in 'tipc_msg_build()' to alloc smaller skb when memory
allocation fails, which can avoid unnecessary sending failures.

The value of FB_MTU now is 3744, and the data size will be:

(3744 + SKB_DATA_ALIGN(sizeof(struct skb_shared_info)) + \
SKB_DATA_ALIGN(BUF_HEADROOM + BUF_TAILROOM + 3))

which is larger than one page(4096), and two pages will be allocated.

To avoid it, replace '3744' with a calculation:

FB_MTU = (PAGE_SIZE - SKB_DATA_ALIGN(sizeof(struct skb_shared_info))
- SKB_DATA_ALIGN(BUF_HEADROOM + BUF_TAILROOM + 3))

Fixes: 4c94cc2d3d57 ("tipc: fall back to smaller MTU if allocation of local send skb fails")

Please don't add any extra file just for this little fix. We have enough
files.
Keep the macros in msg.h/c where they used to be.  You can still add
your copyright line to those files.
Regarding the macros kept inside msg.c, they are there because we design
by the principle of minimal exposure, even among our module internal files.
Otherwise it is ok.

Thanks

I don't want to add a new file too, but I found it's hard to define FB_MTU. I
tried to define it in msg.h, and 'crypto.h' should be included, which
'BUF_HEADROOM' is defined in. However, 'msg.h' is already included in
'crypto.h', so it doesn't work.

I tried to define FB_MTU in 'crypto.h', but it feels weird to define
it here. And
FB_MTU is also used in 'bcast.c', so it can't be defined in 'msg.c'.

I will see if there is a better solution.

Thanks!

I think we can leverage the fact that this by definition is a node local
message, and those are never encrypted.
So, if you base FB_MTU on the non-crypto versions of BUF_HEADROOM and
BUF_TAILROOM we should be safe.
That will even give us better utilization of the space available.

Ok, that sounds nice. I'll make a V2 based on that.

I think we misunderstanded something. If I base FB_MTU on the non-crypto
version of BUF_TAILROOM, it will eat 2 pages too. Because the
BUF_TAILROOM used in tipc_buf_acquire() is the crypto version, which is
larger than the non-crypto version:

struct sk_buff *tipc_buf_acquire(u32 size, gfp_t gfp)
{
struct sk_buff *skb;
#ifdef CONFIG_TIPC_CRYPTO
unsigned int buf_size = (BUF_HEADROOM + size + BUF_TAILROOM + 3) & ~3u;
#else
unsigned int buf_size = (BUF_HEADROOM + size + 3) & ~3u;
#endif
[..]
}

So if I use the non-crypto version, the size allocated will be:

PAGE_SIZE - BUF_HEADROOM_non-crypto - BUF_TAILROOM_non-crypt +
BUF_HEADROOM_crypto + BUF_TAILROOM_crypto

which is larger than PAGE_SIZE.

So, I think the simple way is to define FB_MTU in 'crypto.h'. Is this
acceptable?

Thanks!

I spent a little more time looking into this. I think the best we can do
is to keep FB_MTU internal to msg.c, and then add an outline function to
msg.c that can be used by bcast.c. The way it is used is never time
critical.

I also see that we could need a little cleanup around this. There is a
redundant align() function that should be removed and replaced with the
global ALIGN() macro.
Even tipc_buf_acquire() should use this macro instead of the explicit
method that is used now.
In general, I stongly dislike conditional code, and it is not necessary
in this function. If we redefine the non-crypto BUF_TAILROOM to 0
instead of 16 (it is not used anywhere else) we could get rid of this too.

But I leave that to you. If you only fix the FB_MTU macro I am content.

Yeah, I think I can handle it, just leave it to me.

It seems like I have been misleading you. It turns out that these
messages *will* be sent out over the nework in some cases, i.e. at
multicast/broadcast over an UDP bearer.
So, what we need is two macros, one with the conditional crypto
head/tailroom defined as you first suggested, and one that only use the
non-crypto head/tailroom as we have been discussing now.
The first one can be defined inside bcast.c, the latter  inside msg.c.
It might also be a good idea to give the macros more descriptive names,
such as ONEPAGE_MTU in the broadcast version, and ONEPAGE_SKB in the
node local
version.

Does that make sense?

I think it's another point which can be optimized. However, with
CONFIG_TIPC_CRYPTO=y, the BUF_HEADROOM used in tipc_buf_acquire() is
always the crypto version, so it donen't work to define FB_MTU with
non-crypto BUF_HEADROOM.

So the point is to make a non-crypto version tipc_buf_acquire(), which
is used to alloc data for non-crypto message with non-crypto
BUF_HEADROOM. And that require us to distinguish the message that don't
crypto. Is there simple way to achieve this goal?

(Btw, I resended the patches for the 'two pages' problems.)
