libceph: fix messenger retry

2012-07-18T02:35:59Z

In ancient times, the messenger could both initiate and accept connections. An artifact if that was data structures to store/process an incoming ceph_msg_connect request and send an outgoing ceph_msg_connect_reply. Sadly, the negotiation code was referencing those structures and ignoring important information (like the peer's connect_seq) from the correct ones. Among other things, this fixes tight reconnect loops where the server sends RETRY_SESSION and we (the client) retries with the same connect_seq as last time. This bug pretty easily triggered by injecting socket failures on the MDS and running some fs workload like workunits/direct_io/test_sync_io. Signed-off-by: Sage Weil

ceph: add auth buf in prepare_write_connect()

2012-05-19T00:35:59Z

Move the addition of the authorizer buffer to a connection's out_kvec out of get_connect_authorizer() and into its caller. This way, the caller--prepare_write_connect()--can avoid adding the connect header to out_kvec before it has been fully initialized. Prior to this patch, it was possible for a connect header to be sent over the wire before the authorizer protocol or buffer length fields were initialized. An authorizer buffer associated with that header could also be queued to send only after the connection header that describes it was on the wire.

ceph: rename prepare_connect_authorizer()

2012-05-17T13:18:13Z

Change the name of prepare_connect_authorizer(). The next patch is going to make this function no longer add anything to the connection's out_kvec, so it will no longer fit the pattern of the rest of the prepare_connect_*() functions. In addition, pass the address of a variable that will hold the authorization protocol to use. Move the assignment of that to the connection's out_connect structure into prepare_write_connect().

ceph: use info returned by get_authorizer

2012-05-17T13:18:13Z

Rather than passing a bunch of arguments to be filled in with the content of the ceph_auth_handshake buffer now returned by the get_authorizer method, just use the returned information in the caller, and drop the unnecessary arguments. Signed-off-by: Alex Elder Reviewed-by: Sage Weil

ceph: have get_authorizer methods return pointers

2012-05-17T13:18:13Z

Have the get_authorizer auth_client method return a ceph_auth pointer rather than an integer, pointer-encoding any returned error value. This is to pave the way for making use of the returned value in an upcoming patch. Signed-off-by: Alex Elder Reviewed-by: Sage Weil

ceph: messenger: check return from get_authorizer

2012-05-17T13:18:12Z

In prepare_connect_authorizer(), a connection's get_authorizer method is called but ignores its return value. This function can return an error, so check for it and return it if that ever occurs. Signed-off-by: Alex Elder Reviewed-by: Sage Weil

ceph: messenger: rework prepare_connect_authorizer()

2012-05-17T13:18:12Z

Change prepare_connect_authorizer() so it returns without dropping the connection mutex if the connection has no get_authorizer method. Use the symbolic CEPH_AUTH_UNKNOWN instead of 0 when assigning authorization protocols. Signed-off-by: Alex Elder Reviewed-by: Sage Weil
