Allow the app to request that CHALLENGEs be passed to it through an
out-of-band queue that allows recvmsg() to pick it up so that the app can
add data to it with sendmsg().
This will allow the application (AFS or userspace) to interact with the
process if it wants to and put values into user-defined fields. This will
be used by AFS when talking to a fileserver to supply that fileserver with
a crypto key by which callback RPCs can be encrypted (ie. notifications
from the fileserver to the client).

A number of functions separately furnish an AF_RXRPC socket with callback
function pointers into a kernel app (such as the AFS filesystem) that is
using it. Replace most of these with an ops table for the entire socket.
This makes it easier to add more callback functions.
Note that the call incoming data processing callback is retaind as that
gets set to different things, depending on the type of op.

Change rxrpc's API such that:
(1) A new function, rxrpc_kernel_lookup_peer(), is provided to look up an
rxrpc_peer record for a remote address and a corresponding function,
rxrpc_kernel_put_peer(), is provided to dispose of it again.
(2) When setting up a call, the rxrpc_peer object used during a call is
now passed in rather than being set up by rxrpc_connect_call(). For
afs, this meenat passing it to rxrpc_kernel_begin_call() rather than
the full address (the service ID then has to be passed in as a
separate parameter).
(3) A new function, rxrpc_kernel_remote_addr(), is added so that afs can
get a pointer to the transport address for display purposed, and
another, rxrpc_kernel_remote_srx(), to gain a pointer to the full
rxrpc address.
(4) The function to retrieve the RTT from a call, rxrpc_kernel_get_srtt(),
is then altered to take a peer. This now returns the RTT or -1 if
there are insufficient samples.
(5) Rename rxrpc_kernel_get_peer() to rxrpc_kernel_call_get_peer().
(6) Provide a new function, rxrpc_kernel_get_peer(), to get a ref on a
peer the caller already has.
This allows the afs filesystem to pin the rxrpc_peer records that it is
using, allowing faster lookups and pointer comparisons rather than
comparing sockaddr_rxrpc contents. It also makes it easier to get hold of
the RTT. The following changes are made to afs:
(1) The addr_list struct's addrs[] elements now hold a peer struct pointer
and a service ID rather than a sockaddr_rxrpc.
(2) When displaying the transport address, rxrpc_kernel_remote_addr() is
used.
(3) The port arg is removed from afs_alloc_addrlist() since it's always
overridden.
(4) afs_merge_fs_addr4() and afs_merge_fs_addr6() do peer lookup and may
now return an error that must be handled.
(5) afs_find_server() now takes a peer pointer to specify the address.
(6) afs_find_server(), afs_compare_fs_alists() and afs_merge_fs_addr[46]{}
now do peer pointer comparison rather than address comparison.

afs_make_call() calls rxrpc_kernel_begin_call() to begin a call (which may
get stalled in the background waiting for a connection to become
available); it then calls rxrpc_kernel_set_max_life() to set the timeouts -
but that starts the call timer so the call timer might then expire before
we get a connection assigned - leading to the following oops if the call
stalled:

Fix this by noting the timeouts in struct rxrpc_call when the call is
created. The timer will be started when the first packet is transmitted.
It shouldn't be possible to trigger this directly from userspace through
AF_RXRPC as sendmsg() will return EBUSY if the call is in the
waiting-for-conn state if it dropped out of the wait due to a signal.

If the rxrpc call set up by afs_make_call() receives an error whilst it is
transmitting the request, there's the possibility that it may get to the
point the rxrpc call is ended (after the error_kill_call label) just as the
call is queued for async processing.
This could manifest itself as call->rxcall being seen as NULL in
afs_deliver_to_call() when it tries to lock the call.
Fix this by splitting rxrpc_kernel_end_call() into a function to shut down
an rxrpc call and a function to release the caller's reference and calling
the latter only when we get to afs_put_call().

Tidy up the abort generation infrastructure in the following ways:
(1) Create an enum and string mapping table to list the reasons an abort
might be generated in tracing.
(2) Replace the 3-char string with the values from (1) in the places that
use that to log the abort source. This gets rid of a memcpy() in the
tracepoint.
(3) Subsume the rxrpc_rx_eproto tracepoint with the rxrpc_abort tracepoint
and use values from (1) to indicate the trace reason.
(4) Always make a call to an abort function at the point of the abort
rather than stashing the values into variables and using goto to get
to a place where it reported. The C optimiser will collapse the calls
together as appropriate. The abort functions return a value that can
be returned directly if appropriate.
Note that this extends into afs also at the points where that generates an
abort. To aid with this, the afs sources need to #define
RXRPC_TRACE_ONLY_DEFINE_ENUMS before including the rxrpc tracing header
because they don't have access to the rxrpc internal structures that some
of the tracepoints make use of.

Implement an in-kernel rxperf server to allow kernel-based rxrpc services
to be tested directly, unlike with AFS where they're accessed by the
fileserver when the latter decides it wants to.
This is implemented as a module that, if loaded, opens UDP port 7009
(afs3-rmtsys) and listens on it for incoming calls. Calls can be generated
using the rxperf command shipped with OpenAFS, for example.

rxrpc currently uses a fixed 4s retransmission timeout until the RTT is
sufficiently sampled. This can cause problems with some fileservers with
calls to the cache manager in the afs filesystem being dropped from the
fileserver because a packet goes missing and the retransmission timeout is
greater than the call expiry timeout.
Fix this by:
(1) Copying the RTT/RTO calculation code from Linux's TCP implementation
and altering it to fit rxrpc.
(2) Altering the various users of the RTT to make use of the new SRTT
value.
(3) Replacing the use of rxrpc_resend_timeout to use the calculated RTO
value instead (which is needed in jiffies), along with a backoff.
Notes:
(1) rxrpc provides RTT samples by matching the serial numbers on outgoing
DATA packets that have the RXRPC_REQUEST_ACK set and PING ACK packets
against the reference serial number in incoming REQUESTED ACK and
PING-RESPONSE ACK packets.
(2) Each packet that is transmitted on an rxrpc connection gets a new
per-connection serial number, even for retransmissions, so an ACK can
be cross-referenced to a specific trigger packet. This allows RTT
information to be drawn from retransmitted DATA packets also.
(3) rxrpc maintains the RTT/RTO state on the rxrpc_peer record rather than
on an rxrpc_call because many RPC calls won't live long enough to
generate more than one sample.
(4) The calculated SRTT value is in units of 8ths of a microsecond rather
than nanoseconds.
The (S)RTT and RTO values are displayed in /proc/net/rxrpc/peers.

Fix the handling of signals in client rxrpc calls made by the afs
filesystem. Ignore signals completely, leaving call abandonment or
connection loss to be detected by timeouts inside AF_RXRPC.
Allowing a filesystem call to be interrupted after the entire request has
been transmitted and an abort sent means that the server may or may not
have done the action - and we don't know. It may even be worse than that
for older servers.

Fix the interruptibility of kernel-initiated client calls so that they're
either only interruptible when they're waiting for a call slot to come
available or they're not interruptible at all. Either way, they're not
interruptible during transmission.
This should help prevent StoreData calls from being interrupted when
writeback is in progress. It doesn't, however, handle interruption during
the receive phase.
Userspace-initiated calls are still interruptable. After the signal has
been handled, sendmsg() will return the amount of data copied out of the
buffer and userspace can perform another sendmsg() call to continue
transmission.

Allow kernel services using AF_RXRPC to indicate that a call should be
non-interruptible. This allows kafs to make things like lock-extension and
writeback data storage calls non-interruptible.
If this is set, signals will be ignored for operations on that call where
possible - such as waiting to get a call channel on an rxrpc connection.
It doesn't prevent UDP sendmsg from being interrupted, but that will be
handled by packet retransmission.
rxrpc_kernel_recv_data() isn't affected by this since that never waits,
preferring instead to return -EAGAIN and leave the waiting to the caller.
Userspace initiated calls can't be set to be uninterruptible at this time.

The changes introduced to allow rxrpc calls to be retried creates an issue
when it comes to refcounting afs_call structs. The problem is that when
rxrpc_send_data() queues the last packet for an asynchronous call, the
following sequence can occur:
(1) The notify_end_tx callback is invoked which causes the state in the
afs_call to be changed from AFS_CALL_CL_REQUESTING or
AFS_CALL_SV_REPLYING.
(2) afs_deliver_to_call() can then process event notifications from rxrpc
on the async_work queue.
(3) Delivery of events, such as an abort from the server, can cause the
afs_call state to be changed to AFS_CALL_COMPLETE on async_work.
(4) For an asynchronous call, afs_process_async_call() notes that the call
is complete and tried to clean up all the refs on async_work.
(5) rxrpc_send_data() might return the amount of data transferred
(success) or an error - which could in turn reflect a local error or a
received error.
Synchronising the clean up after rxrpc_kernel_send_data() returns an error
with the asynchronous cleanup is then tricky to get right.
Mostly revert commit c038a58ccf. The two API
functions the original commit added aren't currently used. This makes
rxrpc_kernel_send_data() always return successfully if it queued the data
it was given.
Note that this doesn't affect synchronous calls since their Rx notification
function merely pokes a wait queue and does not refcounting. The
asynchronous call notification function *has* to do refcounting and pass a
ref over the work item to avoid the need to sync the workqueue in call
cleanup.

The life-checking function, which is used by kAFS to make sure that a call
is still live in the event of a pending signal, only samples the received
packet serial number counter; it doesn't actually provoke a change in the
counter, rather relying on the server to happen to give us a packet in the
time window.
Fix this by adding a function to force a ping to be transmitted.
kAFS then keeps track of whether there's been a stall, and if so, uses the
new function to ping the server, resetting the timeout to allow the reply
to come back.
If there's a stall, a ping and the call is *still* stalled in the same
place after another period, then the call will be aborted.

Allow the epoch value to be queried on a server connection. This is in the
rxrpc header of every packet for use in routing and is derived from the
client's state. It's also not supposed to change unless the client gets
restarted.
AFS can make use of this information to deduce whether a fileserver has
been restarted because the fileserver makes client calls to the filesystem
driver's cache manager to send notifications (ie. callback breaks) about
conflicting changes from other clients. These convey the fileserver's own
epoch value back to the filesystem.
