Currently we have an asymmetry in how we handle UDP sockets. For flows
where the target side is a socket, we create a new connect()ed socket
- the "reply socket" specifically for that flow used for sending and
receiving datagrams on that flow and only that flow. For flows where the
initiating side is a socket, we continue to use the "listening" socket (or
rather, a dup() of it). This has some disadvantages:
* We need a hash lookup for every datagram on the listening socket in
order to work out what flow it belongs to
* The dup() keeps the socket alive even if automatic forwarding removes
the listening socket. However, the epoll data remains the same
including containing the now stale original fd. This causes bug 103.
* We can't (easily) set flow-specific options on an initiating side
socket, because that could affect other flows as well
Alter the code to use a connect()ed socket on the initiating side as well
as the target side. There's no way to "clone and connect" the listening
socket (a loose equivalent of accept() for UDP), so we have to create a
new socket. We have to bind() this socket before we connect() it, which
is allowed thanks to SO_REUSEADDR, but does leave a small window where it
could receive datagrams not intended for this flow. For now we handle this
by simply discarding any datagrams received between bind() and connect(),
but I intend to improve this in a later patch.

Currently udp_sock_recv() decides the maximum number of frames it is
willing to receive based on the mode. However, we have upcoming use cases
where we will have different criteria for how many frames we want with
information that's not naturally available here but is in the caller. So
make the maximum number of frames a parameter.

udp_vu_sock_info() uses MSG_PEEK to look ahead at the next datagram to be
received and gets its source address. Currently we only use it in the
vhost-user path, but there's nothing inherently vhost-user specific about
it. We have upcoming uses for it elsewhere so rename and move to udp.c.
While we're there, polish its error reporting a litle.

A "listening" UDP socket can receive datagrams from multiple flows. So,
we currently have some quite subtle and complex code in
udp_buf_listen_sock_data() to group contiguously received packets for the
same flow into batches for forwarding.
However, since we are now always using flow specific connect()ed sockets
once a flow is established, handling of datagrams on listening sockets is
essentially a slow path. Given that, it's not worth the complexity.
Substantially simplify the code by using an approach more like vhost-user,
and "peeking" at the address of the next datagram, one at a time to
determine the correct flow before we actually receive the data,
This removes all meaningful use of the s_in and tosidx fields in
udp_meta_t, so they too can be removed, along with setting of msg_name and
msg_namelen in the msghdr arrays which referenced them.

Both udp_buf_reply_sock_data() and udp_vu_reply_sock_data() internally
decide what the maximum number of datagrams they will forward is. We have
some upcoming reasons to allow the caller to decide that instead, so make
the maximum number of datagrams a parameter for both of them.

udp_buf_reply_sock_data() can handle forwarding data either from socket
to socket ("splicing") or from socket to tap. It has a test on each
datagram for which case we're in, but that will be the same for everything
in the batch.
Split out the spliced path into a separate udp_sock_to_sock() function.
This leaves udp_{buf,vu}_reply_sock_data() handling only forwards from
socket to tap, so rename and simplify them accordingly.
This makes the code slightly longer for now, but will allow future cleanups
to shrink it back down again.

udp_buf_listen_sock_data() and udp_vu_listen_sock_data() now have
effectively identical structure. The forwarding functions used for flow
specific sockets (udp_buf_sock_to_tap(), udp_vu_sock_to_tap() and
udp_sock_to_sock()) also now take a number of datagrams. This means we
can re-use them for the listening socket path, just passing '1' so they
handle a single datagram at a time.
This allows us to merge both the vhost-user and flow specific paths into
a single, simpler udp_listen_sock_data().

Currently udp_flow_from_sock() is only used when receiving a datagram
from a "listening" socket. It takes the listening socket's epoll
reference to get the interface and port on which the datagram arrived.
We have some upcoming cases where we want to use this in different
contexts, so make it take the pif and port as direct parameters instead.

udp_listen_sock_data() forwards datagrams from a "listening" socket until
there are no more (for now). We have an upcoming use case where we want
to do that for a socket that's not a "listening" socket, and uses a
different epoll reference. So, adjust the function to take the pieces it
needs from the reference as direct parameters and rename to udp_sock_fwd().

udp_splice() prepare and udp_splice_send() are both quite simple functions
that now have only one caller: udp_sock_to_sock(). Fold them both into
that caller.

From: David Gibson @ 2025-04-04 10:15 UTC (permalink / raw)
To: Stefano Brivio, passt-dev; +Cc: David Gibson
When we establish a new UDP flow we create connect()ed sockets that will
only handle datagrams for this flow. However, there is a race between
bind() and connect() where they might get some packets queued for a
different flow. Currently we handle this by simply discarding any
queued datagrams after the connect. UDP protocols should be able to handle
such packet loss, but it's not ideal.
We now have the tools we need to handle this better, by redirecting any
datagrams received during that race to the appropriate flow. We need to
use a deferred handler for this to avoid unexpectedly re-ordering datagrams
in some edge cases.
